esoteric justification of destructiveness and violence |
Unlike the broad meaning of the term in popular culture, on WS the underlying glorification of destructiveness which seem to be a common denominator of many 'oldschool' esoteric movements, is explored as they surface in deep politics.
Glorification of destructiveness may be subtle, as in demanding everybody get "better", adhering to (unattainable) perfectionism, or more bold as suggesting to tear down everything to build up a new and better world. It might come as a wish for apocalypse, embedded in ancient myths of reincarnation, initiation rites or euthanasia.
Secrecy is maintained by threats, a "don't snitch" rule, not to tell about the violent and often deceptive means by which the 'golden age' must be brougt about. Wikipedia defines it thus:
The term New Age, along with related terms like new era and new world, long predate the emergence of the New Age movement, and have widely been used to assert that a better way of life for humanity is dawning. It occurs commonly, for instance, in political contexts; the Great Seal of the United States, designed in 1782, proclaims a "new order of ages", while in the 1980s the Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev proclaimed that "all mankind is entering a new age". (WP)
Despite the sweet talk, however, at the core of the esoteric schools discussed below, there is a fundamental disidentification with humanity. Glorification, mystification and sexualization of death: in order for something new to be 'born', something old must 'die'. To prevent opposition of those deemed inferior, a system of absolute obedience to (often invisible) higher masters is commonly taught and instituted for members of such cults.

Conspiracy theory?
The nature of conspiracies implies that only hypotheses may be formulated, acknowledging that secrecy can in fact be maintained by plausible deniability and by rules such as a strict need to know basis. Secret services have institutionalized this principle by different levels of "security clearances" their agents may hold.
Adherence to "orders from above" is key as well as believe in a "higher cause" or a "big idea" (Bush jr.[citation needed]; it also relieves the agent from responsibility for his/her actions, which in turn fosters psychological projection (cultivation of enemy images). It follows that members at lower levels or without necessary clearances may live in a very different reality than those at the upper echelons of secrecy cults.
To put forward an hypotheses of ideological meaning of so called deep events (in the absence of provable facts), a correlation analysis of a course of events and the ideological as well as the psychological makeup of historical secret societies may be helpful, as presented in declassified writings of these clubs. This is beyond the scope of this document; only some ancient writings concerned with spriritual aspects of power and control are briefly summarized.
Victory Stele of Naram-Sin
The worror-king made himself a little god[1] wearing an animal mask in this document from 2254-2218 BC through manic victory, worshiped and looked upon by his disciples.
The triumph of victory is apparently not enough; the enemy must be degraded and humiliated, depicted as weak and chaotic, impaled by spears, fleeing. A woman is begging Naram-Sin for mercy. He shows contempt and sadism by trampling the enemy underfoot. His inscription says: "Naram-Sin the powerful [unreadable] Sidur and Sutuni, princes of the Lulubi, gathered together and they made war against me." Notable is Naram-Sin's grandiosity and the false claim that he was the victim of the aggression of the enemy who conspired against him.
A clear hierarchy is depicted: the highest god is invisible (or damaged), below are two suns or stars. One aspect is visible in a beam of light which shines on the slave-like losers like a spotlight, mocking their weakness. The other aspect is invisible and shines on the victorious warrior-king and his ordered imperial forces keeping in rank while marching over the disordered defenders.
There is a dichotomy between dark and bright, the two forces are fighting each other and the dark side is winning. The tendency to make oneself into a god at lifetime through manic triumph runs in Naram's family: his grandfather had the same permanent war/mentality. A recent example of the idea to become god-like is transhumanism (through fusion with technology that help overcoming human "limitations", i.e. death).

Money/Creation | “Generally speaking the zero sum game promotes conflict. Conflicting parties need money to stand competition (in the extreme case: fight a war) in order to maintain their positive balance position. The only regulatory principle to limit the promotion of violence in all shapes and colors is the monetary monopoly's need to manage risk. Fatally, the risk taken by banks is distorted by the doctrine that the monetary monopoly as a whole may not fail. This so called Moral Hazard caused by public bailouts encourages investments in exploitation and war. What really trickles down is violence, not wealth.” | 'Smithy' |
