Rationality and reason is not only a waste of time, it is a symptom of a declining society. Wisdom comes to a people like vultures to a corpse. To engage in philosophy is to question your own state of being, to question your own culture, a symptom of a declining society. It brings about degeneracy. A truly great state does not question it's own being, the being of the state and its actions justifies itself. it is not in decline so people never get to thinking. When people start philosophizing, it can only mean the end is near. Embrace irrationalism. Reject rationality. Reject even the Socratic method and embrace the essence of things without questioning said essence

You should reject especially the Socratic method. It was the point in history where we saw an "embracement of reason". When you have an instrinsic sense of justice, not not listen when some faggot asks you to justify it. Think back to he Peloponnesian war, in presocratic times, when empires did not bother to come up with a justification for why a strong country conquered a weaker one. They did it because they could.

Wisdom should be shamed and philosophizing should be made illegal. Fuck dialectics

That's right. And if I feel you are not, I do not have to justify myself

That's why praise the Renaissance and intellectual honesty.

Dionysian-->Nativistic-->Sophocles

Conventional: Plato and cohorts represented a move away from traditional Greek culture and appealed to a more universal aspect which cemented their legacy.

Nietzsche: when apex of achievement is reached then decline starts at that point.

If a culture becomes too paralyzed and the adherents are strong then the culture can be destroyed and a new one established. If a culture has too much vitality for the adherents, then the culture will move past them and export itself to those fit to embrace it.

>The poems of the lyrist can express nothing which did not already lie hidden in the vast universality and absoluteness of the music which compelled him to figurative speech.
