You can’t “outlive” civilization.
There’s a war that has been going on for 10,000 years where the civilized people always have won over the uncivilized, with their superior weapons, organizations, brainwashed people and germs. You might not like it. But it’s the truth. The few uncontacted indigenous people that are left can’t be expected to win the war with their spears.
So it’s really up to us. We have to fight the system, for the sake of the only true undomesticated, untamed people that are left. For the Sentinelese, (yes they are some tough guys throwing spears and shooting arrows at helicopters, but it’s not enough, even though they have won our hearts and respect by doing that), for all the Indian tribes in the amazons that are facing extermination because of our diseases, getting killed by people wanting their land and having soon nowhere to live because of deforestation of the amazons.
Civilization has to be fought from within. It’s the only way. Everything else is bullshit and contrary to our goal. If the civilization will collapse by itself we all are going to die, because the system will not collapse until everything is gone and poisoned. Time is running out and the last thing we need is escapism and pretentious nostalgia that leads nowhere.
We say: Fuck the system and fuck it real good. If you don’t have the guts to do it then go and hide in some forest and pretend that everything is going to turn out alright by itself. We do however recognize the need for learning primitive skills and to be out in the nature as a personal process of becoming feral, but it really breaks our hearts to hear critics of civilization talking with misplaced optimism, about a mind shift towards awareness about the possible collapse of the global system, as it would actually mean something. Just because a crack addict knows that crack is killing him doesn’t necessarily mean that he is going to stop using. And besides, these people are warning that the system will collapse not because they want it, but to find means how to prevent it. And therefore they are more dangerous than people living in complete oblivion.
And it’s the same thing with capitalism. The reason to why the madness of destroying the planet is still going on, even though people know this, is mainly because there are people that are making money on it. And money is far more addictive than any drug on this planet. Just like a crack addict that does things like robbing people and stealing from his mother to get his drug, the money and power addicts creates an ecological disaster, threatening to destroy the environment, to the point where no human creature can survive on the planet any longer, just so they can get their precious money and strengthening their power.
And just as a crack addict usually continues his destructive lifestyle until he is dead, money and power addicts will continue until not only they are dead but everyone and everything else is also dead. The Leftists recognizes this but they make a fatal error in their conclusions. What they don’t understand is that capitalism can’t be separated from civilization and modern technology, as communism has proven by it’s failure to achieve it’s utopia every time. The first state was formed because of the necessity to protect the capital of the ruling class and not it’s people in general, and modern technology have never had the task of satisfying an existing need but to create a need that people didn’t have before.
Modern people like us find it very uncomfortable and frustrating when the car breaks down or the subway stops, even though we have lived thousands of years without these things, just like a heroin addict gets very uncomfortable and frustrated if can’t get his fix. So we can say that the modern man has become a comfort-addict, (he can also be described as a consumer-addict, but the underlying drive in this case is comfort).
One of the most fundamental defense mechanisms addicts have is denial. The subject may deny the reality of his addiction altogether (simple denial), admit the fact but deny its seriousness (minimization) or admit both the fact and seriousness but deny responsibility (transference).
The scientists, and the laymen who quote these scientists, who claims contrary to overwhelming evidences, that the extreme weathers we all are experiencing all over the earth, doesn’t have anything to do with the deforestation of the amazons and thereby releasing the carbon contained within the vegetation and thus accelerating global warming, are making themselves guilty of simple denial.
Then you have the scientists, and laymen who quotes these scientists, who claims that even though there has been a shift in the climate it’s not as alarming as some people tries to make it. They claim that the climate has shifted many times during the history of mankind. You also have the leftist who even go as far as demonstrating about different environmental issues but yet find it more important to fight for their union rights and such.
There are even critics of civilization who claims that we can outlive the insanity we refer to as “modern civilization” and that we will adopt to the change in environment because people are “smart”. In this category you also have the environmentalists who believe in the development of “environmentally friendly” technology (whatever the hell that is), despite the fact that modern technology has been nothing but a disastrous chapter in the history of mankind. Like a Pandora’s Box it has released the capacity of humans destroying themselves and their surrounding many times around. All these people make themselves guilty of minimization which is one of the most dangerous forms of denial because it’s so deceiving.
In the third category you find the doomsday prophets who claim that the world is coming to an end based on various scripts such as The Book of Revelation, The Prophecies of Nostradamus, and numerous other books, one crazier than the other and possible to be interpretered in any way the reader would like to. They claim that the end is coming soon and that there is absolutely nothing to do about it. They also claim that there is a secret organization (The Illuminati) or a supernatural entity (The Devil) to be responsible of how things look right now. These people are making themselves guilty of transference. And they usually put there hope to some sort of messiah like Jesus Christ.
Then you have the people who don’t live in denial and are fighting for their lives with any means they can. They might not be successful but at least they try. Our hearts and respect is for these people who risk their freedom and life’s in a (seemingly) hopeless situation.
“To revolt is a natural tendency of life. Even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it. In general, the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt.” – Mikhail Bakunin
