It seems to me like there're lots of people interested in Gnosticism in /lit/, I think it's time we have a discussion about some of the issues others and I perceive with such philosophy.

How do Gnostic Scriptures and Gnostic apologetic literature deal with the dehumanization of the Hylics?
It has come to my attention that Gnostics are always either far-leftists (Philip K Dick, Spirit Science) or far-rightists (Carl Jung).
I find interesting how at the same time Gnostics claim that there is divine spark in every single living being they will glady claim somewhat a flexible caste system morally allows them to exterminate and exploit those "plebs" who happen to be considered lesser than them because they will be destroyed during Sophia's Rapture anyway.
Instead of desiring the destruction of those deemed inferior a Gnosis-searcher should seek the eventual improvement of those who deserve it, the innocence for the pure, the salvation of the sinners and the reward for those who make good deeds even if they lack Gnosis.

Carl Jung and Evola made some interesting points about how the idea of Gnosis is similar to the idea of the Moksha, but as fascists that they were they also loved to mix it with their extremely elitistic and hierarchial bullshit.
Nothing wrong with anti-egalitarianism IMHO but elitism is just as undesirable, evil and dehumanizing as egalitarianism, if not. Aristocrats and brahman can suck my dick.
While Gnostics claim that matter is evil and that our world is controlled by the Demiurge/Abraxas they simultaneously and hypocritically tend to support the wealthy, hedonistic and powerful ruling "classes" or castes of India and countries alike that follow dharmic religions.
I also think it's interesting how frecuently words like "NPC" or "pleb" get used as insults in Gnostic/anti-demiurgic online communities, maybe that's because this is the internet and people are more rude here, but whatever, I think it's pretty telling.

Proove me wrong. Fight me cowards.
