Zyzz's philosophy (or lack of it) around lifting is more authentic than Mishima's ever was. Sun and Steel is cope for him being attracted to men and coping by getting into obsessing over his own like ever other jacked gay man.

The distinction between words and actions as a metaphysical conflict of art versus life, the idea of words as decadence in opposition to the physical realm of action.
>Actions are the first tragedy in life, words are the second. Words are perhaps the worst. Words are merciless...
Afaik Mishima said that Wilde was important to him, particularly Salome, so my guess would be that this concept is derived from Wilde.

I think he is sincere in really trying to practice some of what Mishima describes, but overall it felt a bit surface level. He left out the whole theme of death and everything that makes the text sometimes weird and difficult, like the ejaculation metaphors, sexual undertones and the historical context of Japanese philosophy. He also called "Sun and Steel" a "novel." And he interrupts the video after three minutes to advertise his engergy drink, which I think Mishima would have hated and would have felt repulsed by. But for his audience it was probably interesting and possibly inspiring.

Robert Graves and Pablo Picasso were fucking 17 year old girls while they were 75+

The reason men "don't hit the wall" is that men are graded on more than just their looks, and women are brutal graders anyway so it's not even worth trying to coast on your looks as a man, unless you won the genetic lottery big time.

I personally believe that Mishima was in all likelihood bisexual and that people who claim he was "gay" only do so to trigger the chuds. Also Japs don't conceive of homosexuality in the same way westerners do.
