Civilization As The Enemy

"We Don't Want Your Civilization."
-Crazy Horse
As a certified crackpot who believes that religion is the theft of a soul and civilization is its obliterating agent, I also believe that just as the Redskin was driven to either spiritual of physical extinction, with many taking each choice, that so will the Whiteman, his conqueror. The poor whites—mostly escaping from the bondage of Civilization—became the unwitting tools of their distant slave masters, who would eventually catch up to them and their descendants.
Many of them new this. Certainly Crazy Horse—who was part white—knew this, as did Blue Jacket before him, as did the white medicine man on the sacred mountain that gave The Rattler of the Shoshone his message.
Having flown from the vile hive of the civilized mind to a land without crime or police officers, where most men have a gun and all of them seem willing to help you rather than measure you for an ambush—I see the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachians of the east as the last redoubt of the free thinking white men, who will be driven to extinction either by death of cultural obliteration.
I see the above as inevitable, that in the end The Machine will win. I also see it as an end worth contesting. Hence the concept behind Reverent Chandler and Night Song of The Nords, that an ice age gives the few people of European descent who have not embraced their erasure an opportunity to return to a truer way of life and death, by adopting and combing Norse and Amerindian mythology and lifeways in an End Time struggle.
I will not be posting chapters on line, but rather posting the composition notes.
I was hoping for a an inspiration for this story when I came out to a land where Government is not a worshipped God but a hated devil. Then I walked the Battlefield of the Greasy Grass Fight, above the Little Big Horn River. Walking to the far redoubt on Reno's hilltop. Here I saw the place where two white soldiers and one Red Man died fighting—the Indian having scaled a deep grassy gorge and gotten into hand-to-hand combat.
That, and Crazy Horse's quote, after having learned that he had brown hair and that he was primarily opposed to Civilization, drove the narrative nail home.

"Never forget that a human being with technology is exactly like an alcoholic with a barrel of wine" - Ted Kaczynski

James to round out your anti-civilization tour, and while you are in Montana, you must visit the cabin of Ted Kaczynski. Yeah, that Ted Kaczynski, the notorious “Unabomber”. He pretty much felt the same way about civilization as you do.

“Industrial Society and Its Future” (AKA The Unabomber Manifesto) by Ted Kaczynski

Introduction: “The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in “advanced” countries.

“Kaczynski states that leftism and technology go hand in hand, because the collectivism and control that leftism requires cannot be accomplished without technology. The more advances we have with technology, the more it will be used to further progressivism, which includes a decrease in individual rights and an increase in authoritarian state control.” – Roosh V

Now Anonymous Conservative sees the current social and political conflict as part of the perennial conflict between the r and K evolutionary reproductive strategies. Basically an abundance of resources tends to make people foolish, lazy and focused on pleasure seeking and conflict avoidance. We’ve reached a state of abundance where millions of our countryman are unemployed, yet they still eat, drive cars, have smart phones and cable TV.

“K-strategists are designed for, innately see, and expect a world of limited resources. It is what they are made for, and it is how their brain is programmed. By contrast r-strategists are designed for, innately see, and expect a world where resources are freely available to everyone. It is how their brain is programmed. It is no wonder that there is no sense of unity between these ideologies. The only unity you will find is when the environment either forces the r-strategists to reprogram themselves to be more K, or wipes out those who are incapable of reprogramming. The only unity is K. …The left’s reality-blindness is not a mistake, or a defect, or a disease – it is an evolved adaptation designed to help produce the r-strategy. It is a feature in the human machine, not a bug, and sudden resource shortage, mixed with a little Darwinian Selection will fix it naturally.”

“There is no reasoning with liberals. They are, for all practical purposes, a different species. On the bright side, there will soon be no reason for reasoning with them, because if this collapse is as big as it appears it will be, it will, for all practical purposes, be an extinction event for them.” – Anonymous Conservative 08/23/2016

P.S. Believe it or not, Custer was sympathetic with Crazy Horse's viewpoint.

“If I were an Indian, I often think I would greatly prefer to cast my lot among those of my people who adhered to the free open plains, rather than submit to the confined limits of a reservation, there to be the recipient of the blessed benefits of civilization, with its vices thrown in without stint or measure.”

-George Armstrong Custer, Lieutenant Colonel and Brevet Major General, U.S. Army, “My Life on the Plains”, 1874.

Custer earned himself considerable enmity from the powers-that-be with his criticism of the government’s treatment of the Plains Indians in his book. But none of that mattered on 25 June, 1876.
