The captain actually sugar coated this and put a cherry on top, but as bad and inescapable as it is, it's not death's door. Once you let go of the fantasy being sold, accept that the constitution is an irreparable failure (because people can't be counted on to uphold it) and the whole global system is doomed to leftward singularity you can then build up your expectations and plan the adventures of your life. There are still things that can be done for yourself, for the people in your inner circle. The world is fucked, but you already have the tools handed to you by the wider manosphere to build a new world around yourself. Live in this world but don't be of this world and you won't mourn it's passing (no I'm not a Christian). The United States will fall but you will not counted as among the last Americans, you will be remembered as among the first Men of a new age.

All of that still takes work and work towards something that means some kind of world that allow it to exist. <br /><br />While minimalism is a reaction to lack of better offers in our society, it is not actually the most minimal. The most minimal is staying home as long as possible with your parents (no cooking, no cleaning), huge usage of escapism (usually said as as video games, but any medium to distract and provide some substitute to trying to live), and getting fat. <br /><br />To go beyond that level, it still mean some expectation of a society that allow some form of standing up. Even having a friend still mean some kind of root. Even "doing it just for yourself" still mean some level of expectation.Dreamernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-66133637304346820182014-04-29T04:09:17.269-07:002014-04-29T04:09:17.269-07:00Put down the razor blades.

Personally I really hate conservatives who have a saccharine flavored optimism in America, such as the mentioned Sean Hannity. I think they give conservatives a bad name and make us just look... stupid. The best of conservative thought is always tainted with the tragic. Read Sowell, Burke, and the Federalist Papers. At the best, humanity can hope for coping by before the eschaton.

As an alpha nerd I’ve been relatively protected from the collapse of middle class but I see it all around me and I completely agree with your long term forecasts. Smart young people today should be looking to bail on the US, or follow your advice and “Enjoy the Decline.” My own adult children are now suffering the Obama recovery. They have done one thing right; they didn’t take on student debt. It’s marginally better to be unemployed without debt than unemployed with debt but the sad truth remains the only winners today are connected cronies or welfare parasites. The American dream was always more bullshit that reality but now it’s the sickest and blackest of humor. Don’t just enjoy the decline: hasten it, relish it, profit from it.
