Compared to the 13th Century of our era, I find no recognizable form of culture in the modern West. Televisions and plastic assets don't make up for it. Neither do sex performances at the theater. I no longer consider myself part of this society and I barely think any conscious man does.

We have a new Culture, one in which television/radio has become the central and only artistic theme. For good or for ill, we have nothing in our world, or in history, that comes close to the reach, the support, the sheer resources it consumes to produce and of course the massive profits and returns one gets, be it fame, money or influence.

Read Imperium, it complements Spengler and Schmitt's work very well, as well as Carlyle and a few other earlier thinkers.

The real tragedy of reading Spengler though is not that culture is all but gone but that the civilization we were supposed to have in its place is nearly as hard to detect. It’s a civilization, but a really gross and ignoble sort of one.

Since this is a Spengler thread, none of these are things.

>The point is that socially, there's less and less culture day by day. I'm talking about groups, not individuals.
I don't think this is true, at all. The knowledge of prior (high) Cultures like Greco-Roman, Middle-Eastern, Mayan-Aztec informs our current Culture (Western). The Western Culture is the first Culture to truly dig and research in to history and make such available to the entire mass of the Culture. This may have resulted in a wildly different world-view, or a damaged and perverted one as it has been mentioned that the influence the Classical had on Middle-Eastern (given its proximity in time and location) prevented it advancing a truly unique Culture.

What can be said is the forms and symbolism that appear to us today are far cruder and less sophisticated as they are for a broader audience. Music, previously the domain of the Culture baring Strata of society was one the pinnacle of Western expression, now it is crude and manufactured by rote. There is a claim of artistry but it truly is not anything but refutation of what came before.

It is from a Culture that moved from the qualitative to the quantitative. A phase which Yockey suggests is a common occurrence in the undergang of a Culture.

No, it's not. The only tragedy is being aware that our perceptions can be compared and contrasted to previous Culture. Faustian Man had dug and unearthed alternate World-Views, and while we can not at all understand them as the inhabitants of these Cultures did, they can impart an impression which can ultimately damage us.

I see Western culture as just Romano-Germanic culture, like it was throughout the Middle Ages, with the history part just being added after the European nations became Imperial, but there's no reason to
believe that other nations behaved similarly during their very real Imperial eras. A Chinese or a Middle Easterner might use a car, a fridge, and other assets considered Western inventions, but in the end, they are just means to fulfill the needs of a Chinese, of a Middle Easterner, and not actually culturally Western habits. He uses his car to go the Bazar and the fridge to store halal meat; nothing implies that he has accepted Western culture in any form.

Great men need to emerge to challenge the Culture propagated by Liberalism/Marxism/Democracy and allow something new to emerge, what the new will is utterly unknowable but one can hope it would be something beneficial. As mentioned earlier, Yockey made the argument that in prior cultures there was not different provinces and areas and nations that made up Classical Rome, there was Rome and while there was conflict between the Grecian Polis' there was a unified Greek world-view and at many times a unified Greek people.

In Imperium, the well reasoned argument that Europe (the West) needs to unify in the way past cultures has done. Not in the way the modern European Union has, but under an authoritative united polity which can express a unique and new Cultural idea and fostered by Great Men outlined in the work of men like Carlyle.

I'm not saying you can't dislike modernity, but the second half is pretty accurate. However, for all the complaining people here do about modernity, it seems they don't actually know much about it, or how it's really not that much different from what came before it. Old and middle-aged women still huddle about in groups to gossip; depending on where you live, they might even still be hanging out their clothes to dry; kids still ride their bicycles around or play games in the street, and scream at the top of their lungs and annoy all their neighbors; the stray cat still stares at you as you walk by; the dog still barks in the morning and begs to be taken on walks, and runs around the house happy when his owner comes back home; women still lie and men still lie, and both still hurt the other; the sun still rises and falls on us the same as it used to; the moon still shines in the night and fades in the early morning like it always has; people still argue, people still hate, we still go to war, just in different ways; we still get ant or moth infestations or get creeped out by a cockroach crawling on the floor of the kitchen; people are still usurious and greedy; we still look back on the past and say things were better then than they are now; we still look at our current situation and feel like it must be the worst it's ever been; we still look towards the future and think there is none; we still have get sick, we still get better; we still have bad days and good days; we still desire sex; we still desire mutual understanding; we still desire religion and we still hate religion; we still value beauty and we still hate beauty; we still talk about great men and poor men (the great men are still always the men we like, and never the ones we don't like); new discoveries are still being made; nepotism still puts people in places they don't deserve to be; I could go on and on. But really, it seems that most people rather enjoy basking in the doom and gloom of hopelessness and the glory of dead people and dead nations than living their own lives with pride, confidence, and strength.

I'm unsure what you mean by Romano-Germanic, saying as Germanic culture was one of the few that was preserved against Roman authority. Germanic culture (again, not Faustian in the sense you are using it) was born out of the dark gothic forests of Europe (specifically Germany) and from which grew the urge to cross out and into the darkness, to barter with the unknown for more. If we're discussing things in Spenglerian terms, we need to be clear about what is meant.

>A Chinese or a Middle Easterner might use a car, a fridge, and other assets considered Western inventions, but in the end, they are just means to fulfill the needs of a Chinese, of a Middle Easterner, and not actually culturally Western habits.

I'm not sure what you're saying here. Nothing here is related to Culture, Culture is the all encompassing world-view. What one feels, thinks and even how one thinks. How one approaches technics, politics, power, the way one conceptualizes metaphysical concepts. Simply using a fridge or a car is unrelated to these no more than the plough was to past Cultures, at least it is not relevant beyond how it removes the possibility of soil-boundness or natural connection.

Given that Faustian man strikes for dominance over all that around him, including nature, all modern conveniences serve to further lift him up above nature as to better control it.

A badly worded sentence on my part, there was provinces and areas and more but there was no competing nation-states within the polity that was the Roman Empire or Republic. There was Roman and there was non-Roman. There was not multiple provinces of modern-day Italy trying to usurp, compete and fight against Rome's supremacy. After the early wars with the Etruscans they never rose up and maintained a separate polity in competition with Rome through its lifespan.

The Caesars and the world empire don't solve anything, they just trigger cultural winter and begin mass standardization.
They are doomed from the start.
They and the second religiousness are a desperate attempt at revival, to relive the old glory. But nothing truly changes, architecture grows secular and banal, art atrophies and creativity ceases. Everything crystalizes into pre-fabricated forms, architecture becomes gigantic to compensate for its shallowness, art become ssomething of provincial craftsmen. The culture turns into a gigantic museum to itself. It's people sink back into barbarity.
The caesars slowly devolve into cruder and cruder despotism until the empire at last gives out and the civilization enters perpetual stasis.
Whether it collapse or endure, nothing new will come from it.

Not necessarily, Russia seems to be doing fine. The barbarian cultures (Africa, SEA, arguably Latin america and Polynesia) seem to be doing fine enough.
Faustian civilization exhausts itself like any other. It's technology will stagnate, it will stop making new things and turn into a shrine to itself.

That is directly said in the books. Caesarism arises during the transition from Culture to Civilization, which is the creative and vital exhaustion of a Culture, its energies now spent it sits and grows slowly lesser over time

The only part you are wrong is when you conflate Authoritarian (Non-Liberal, Non-Marxist, Non-Democratic) systems of government with crude Caesarism and Despotism. There is nothing to presuppose a new Culture can arise out of what we have now. Even if it begins as a Moonlight Culture like Japan.

No, the technic (that being the way in which something is utilized) in which it is applied and utilized in a Culture is what matters. If technics are use to make life trivial that will result will be detrimental. The emergence of technology is not itself Faustian but the central means by which Western Man uses it to assert his own authority over things is very Faustian.

An example
Faustian man understands how soil works and thinks of it as a chemical reaction and that to get better soil one needs to simply increase potassium and then moderate the abortion of it with another chemical thereby achieving mastery over it. Now the individual might have varying views on technology and technic but the group gestalt collective feeling is what directs action. He understands the damage he does to the soil in this method but has no choice but to continue doing so as the world-view he is within demands it.

If the technic of soil improvement was used as a means to compliment farming it may gradually affect the Faustian mindset and move towards a more natural means of living, not entirely dependent of technology.

If cultures are like living organisms then they have natural instincts. They have to wake up organically and by themselves, not because some book says so.

Culture, with a Capital C. Not cultures. Culture is a world-view (typically) covering a huge area and a singular group of people. Influenced by their environment and acted upon by their will and intellect. Culture, Capital C, does not affect clothing, food, accent or similar surface level aspects of culture. Hence why in the last 400 years, perhaps longer, every single European people contributed to whatever movement was happening, from Christendom to the Enlightenment. Their world-view is the same, despite superficial differences.

I'm not saying there will be greats "after the Westerners", I'm saying just what I said earlier. "It seems that most people rather enjoy basking in the doom and gloom of hopelessness and the glory of dead people and dead nations than living their own lives with pride, confidence, and strength." I don't see how I'm displaying slave morality by being sick of all the whining and despair. There IS a future for the West. Taking it as a foregone conclusion that the West must fall is the same as giving up the greatness of the West.

These things are hard to articulate because we’re talking basically about a sense of being, but for me, it is a sense of the impossibility of a certain sort of life which I would consider both dignified and noble and those are the essential things for life in my opinion. This is a civilization where human things are changed in increasingly inhuman ways, where people are sheperded into large institutions and care taken by “Human Resources” (which itself reveals the attitude), where the only things that are really sold to young men are being careerist hustlers and strivers - kissing ass for university degrees as better or worse universities prestige-wise or making money, either as an entrepreneur or a laborer. Even traditional religion is undermined, mocked, subverted, literally made gay and battle looks a lot more like a terrible car accident than anything in the history books. And speaking of history, that is the best rubric. History tells us what can be offered. Does anyone really feel that our time lives up in any way to history? We have these great machines and vaccines and we live longer lives and yet we are perhaps the most irrelevant people to the history books that have ever lived. But the icing on the cake is that in spite of all this, it’s not even like we really enjoy our lives in these wonderful material conditions. Rather, we live in cities filled with crime, poverty, drugs, broken up concrete, roadways littered with trash, our food supply is literally fake, I could go on and on. So when you call it a preference, I just have to push back on that because it’s not really a preference. It’s this really deeply rooted intuitive sense that something is deeply wrong and this is all fucked up.

What you lack is the core ingredient of the worldview those anons you're arguing with have - depression.
Their folly is thinking it's due to external factors, so leave them be. Unfortunately, you cannot save the unwilling, no matter say you say and how hard you try. Though being an example could help motivate some who are not too far gone.

>>Putin is just intentionally losing to make fun of the west!
Imagine thinking this while your own currency devalues while attempting to punish some le ebil foreign dictator through sanctions and whatnot. Why should Putin stop your elites who are destroying their own middle class? The war doesn't impact Russia itself nearly as much. He even got most of the recruits from the Asian steppe mystery meat reservoir, something the west is still trying to import from ME/Africa, since any government in the west that even starts openly talking about a draft falls overnight? Country too, there is not a single western country it's people are ready to fight for, they'll just up and leave more quickly than Ukrainian women or Syrian rocket scientists kek.

You are literally dumber than an Albanian for typing your fantasies out on a public forum, but that would be if they were anything but fantasies of a resentful depressed kid. True revolutionaries do shit, they don't admit to fantasizing about potentially doing shit, that's one of the few ways you make sure you'll fail before you even start.

Putin's job is to destabilize Europe, this is historically all Russia has ever done as if it is their innermost expression of life. From the Tsar through the Soviet Empire to the broken kleptocracy they rule over now. He is a golem of the kikes that rule over the West now, one who's support play's in to the hands of the system as much as support for Ukraine does.

Not at all. It's helped my country much and done not a single bad thing to it.
>Why should Putin stop your elites who are destroying their own middle class? The war doesn't impact Russia itself nearly as much.
It is causing civil unrest, decreased industrial production, international backlash, destruction of private and public property in both Ukraine and Russia, loss of life, highly skilled military units, expensive military equipment, and with each passing day the Ukrainians hate Russia more, which will make Ukraine an expensive colony filled with potential rebels, assuming of course Russia even manages to conquer it. Russia has everything to gain from annexing the whole country in a short period of time, and everything to lose from stalling out the war without reason. The Russian forces are clearly aware of this too, when the invasion first began they put all their forces and effort into rushing Kiev, clearly attempting a fast occupation of the country, which was the only way to take annex Ukraine without significant damage of some sort or another.

There has always been low culture, and the question for the future is indulging merchant classes that have overstayed their world historic welcome or consciously commit great wealth and effort to hedging man's bets across the stars. We have and will have the technology to do it, so we may as Faustian well, and if it requires crushing the last dregs of the ComIntern by force of UFO grade arms, so be it-- and sooner the better.

>Was proven correct

All the Nazbol shit is based on a mod for HOI4, there is nothing in his writing or talks to remotely suggest that he was symptomatic to Communists, or Russians. He explicitly condemns them both as being outside the European Culture.

Schmitt also features heavily in his writings.
