Damn fine work!

Entropy ensures that when a system is in decline, a partial reduction of entropy—the degree of disorder—through repair necessarily produces entropy and chaos elsewhere. For that reason, it becomes easier to destroy and rebuild than to repair. Your thesis quoted above is emblematic of our dilemma in that the world is simultaneously attempting to save itself while concurrently discovering ‘a new way’. Entropy is an eternal principle that affects both processes.

I was following you quite well until...

Alexander Dugin, good.

Jeffrey Epstein, obviously.

Nick Land, very interesting.

Julius Evola, fair enough.

Terence McKenna, getting a bit nutty here but alright.

Roman von Ungern-Sternberg, a bit obscure, but any man who conquers Mongolia and invades Russia deserves some respect, so fine.

And then...

Chris Chan!

CHRIS CHAN!

The LITERAL Mother f-ing Christian Weston Chandler is now cited as a prophet of our demise and the avatar of our apocalypse.

Maybe I'm getting the whole thing wrong and you're in the right. Chris Chan, the man who would have to work hard for the rest of his life just to be able to climb up high enough to become an absolute Zero, the man who makes Bevis and Butthead look like Plato and Aristotle, is now worthy of being mentioned in the same essay as some of the most influential thinkers and most potent philosophies of our times.

Again, maybe you are right. One of the esoteric magics I have become interested in recently is Nominative Determinism and the pathetic life and appalling decline of Christian Weston Chandler is a spooky parallel to the pathetic decline of the Christian West.

There's never going to be a world in which Chris Chan actually comes out as a winner, maybe in medieval times he could have been an somewhat adequate dung shoveller, but we have the fate of living in the timeline where Chris Chan is the most extensively document human in history.

I was much happier when I never knew he existed and I know I'm not the only one.
