Life sucks and your opinions, often enough, are much worse.

Written: 2021-10-03

Only because I am against cultural degeneration and our sick and gross culture which has reached such heights in terms of vulgarity that men of taste would rather … shut the book and die; only because I’m disgusted with the modern world does not mean I have to accept all kinds of opinions of people who are, at least in some part, against it as well.

Being opposed to sexual decadence and immigration, for example, does not at all require that I have to accept the shoddy, trite, tacky “philosophy” some, or even many, of those opposed to cultural decay adhere to. Even Andy Nowicki once said that, despite having two children, the “breeder rhetoric” on the Alt-Right he finds distasteful.

This is even worse for Christians, here we are somehow expected to accept that only a handful of people are allowed and capable of thinking about theological matters. One example would be the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Or the opinions of traditional Catholics or Eastern Orthodox Christians, who almost force you to accept that life is great and sex even greater.

For example, a Catholic YouTuber, in a video explaining why the Catholic Church rejects same-sex marriage, remarked that, after some rant about today’s sexual decadence, that in a Christian marriage, this, i.e. copulation and birth of a child, can even be seen as beautiful.

To which I reply that I do not have and will never view sexuality as anything more than a curse. I find it disgusting and repulsive, our lowly origins are nothing more than a slap in the face that should at least give us pause, as Andy Nowicki wrote in Considering Suicide.

I conclude, therefore, that the net has mostly been exhausted as far as I am concerned. I do not even follow any news. And I do not need to read or hear for the umpteenth time some unphilosophical minded imbeciles’s philosophical musings. Which usually turn out to be vulgar mush.

Even Andy Nowicki noted, in one of his videos, that he has mostly given up on communicating with people — via YouTube comments in this case. He even disabled comments on some of his videos because he got tired and fed up with all the condescending, trashy comments people all too often leave.

I would off myself in a heartbeat if I knew that nothing but nothingness awaited me. But now, I have to drag along, most likely several decades of mental torture ahead still.

Being mentally ill and a loser is harsh enough; but having to endure it in this cultural climate, this hellhole …?

If only I had a friend like Nicolás Gómez Dávila! Oh! At least he left us with his immortal escolios:

It is fine to demand that the imbecile respect arts, letters, philosophy, the sciences, but let him respect them in silence.

So that one does not live depressed among so many foolish opinions, it behooves one to remember at every moment that things obviously are what they are, no matter what the world’s opinion is.

The majority of men have no right to give their opinion, but only to listen.

Modern man believes he lives amidst a pluralism of opinions, when what prevails today is a stifling unanimity.

Modern individualism is nothing but claiming as one’s own the opinions everyone shares.

Opinions, customs, institutions, cities—everything has become vulgar, since we gave up repairing the old in order to buy every day some gaudy novelty.
