>>43235635This stuff is all downstream of power. Many of these people are surely just npcs going along with what their instincts are telling them which way the winds of power are blowing - and that if they follow those winds, they can participate in that power too. The atlantic empire is a theocracy and the state religion is a death cult. So yes, there certainly are senses in which you could consider them victims as well.
But that doesn't make them any less dangerous, either.
That is the tragedy of living through times of Kali Yuga; one has to harden their hearts, be able to go Full Suharto on any and all who fail to pass the existential filter; for anything less means failure and death.
Certainly, in more civilized times, you wouldn't see so many of the same kinds of people have the same kinds of problems to the same degree; there would be living Tradition, civilization superstructures, social technologies that patch the problems of aimlessness, anomie, and atomization - but of course, all that shit has long since been destroyed in the occident, and nothing to take its place, except for pernicious simulacrums that rush in to occupy the void. These people's lives - like all our lives - were set up for ruin before they were even born; and in the culmination of the greatest irony, they are psyoped into buying in on accelerating the very things that led to such ruin; supporting the very vampires responsible for such ruin.
Even still, attitudinal constitution is a factor. The gleichschaltung is everywhere, but of course not everyone will respond to it the same way. The most receptive human mediums to leftish agitation are naturally persons possessed of chronically negative, myopic, and hysterical temperaments; the kind of persons who perceive nothing good in this plane in general, and perceive all people (including themselves) in this plane in particular as irredeemable sinners who deserve nothing but destruction (and their neighbors with higher status than themselves of course especially deserving); whose experience of existence is naught but an incessant kaleidoscope of senseless contingencies vacillating between boredom and pain; and whose fondest wish is cosmic suicide, where they can die while causing everything to die with them.
The new world will have to be made - if any of us even survive - by those diamonds who are naturally insensitive or antipathic to the psyop. Such is the Great Filter event.
