Dark… and I agree broadly as to the effects. I just wonder whether there was one clear ideology (or even several, numerable) behind it or whether “statism” just happens to be a description that englobes all forms of tendencies whose underlying spirit speaks to some dark inner nature in us all or a collective karmic manifestation of what we had to and have to go through.

I say this while trying to express kindness for the predicament that we all find ourselves in, but that some have hopelessly bought into, people close to us, who - to the degree that anyone does - deserve kindness and compassion.

I think it is an affect of a post nihilistic society, that just so happens to align with various dark ideology that all must attempt to resolve metaphysics without any god.

In our particular moment there seems to be a specific karmic collapse—which I think is only possible in the darkest of nihilistic night—where a god must return. Not for the need of a messiah; but as vanquisher of the Antichrist.

I suppose it presents the real questions of will we become a vacant and hollowed bodies for the free use and exploitation of the only god we can ever know; the state

Or

Are we free and sovereign people who are endowed with the righteous agency that only a real god may provide?

Agreed, once more. Only nuance: is it A god who must return or is it “god” as a concept, where we return to ancient generational wisdom that expressed its spiritual projections through scripture and varied images of godness within and without each and every one, while not feeling the need to have to agree on what is right and righteous in matters of faith.

Do we need a savior or do we need to refine our inner light to align with what feels like a narrow escape channel from a dark cave? This can happen individual by individual and free of dogma but full of light and love.

At least that’s my hope, let’s see if we are up to the moment as a species.
