God damn an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables, slaves with white collars advertising has us Chasing Cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy [__] we don't need. The middle children of History, man, no purpose or place. We have no Great War, no Great Depression. Our Great War is a spiritual war, How Great Depression. It's our lives. For those who can hear me, I say do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, Liberty will never perish. Soldiers, don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think, or what to feel, who drill you, tire you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men.

machine men with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines. You are not cattle. You are men. In the 17th chapter of the kingdom of God is within man. Not one man, nor a group of men, but in all men. In you, you the people have the power. The power to create machines. The power to create happiness. You the people have the power to make this life. Let us all unite, my brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. They may come on the courage of men. Fails when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship. But it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the age of men comes crashing down. But it is not this day. This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand, men of the West. Basically, society says masculinity is toxic. This is wrong. The absence of masculinity is what's toxic. Weak men are spiteful, manipulative, and self-centered. They give nothing back to

society and degrade its foundations. Embodied men, however, are nurturing, integral, and community-centered. Strong masculine men take responsibility for life and their actions. They seek to nourish and protect what is best and lead others from the heart. Deep down, every single one of us wants to level up. It is the undeniable masculine urge to thrive and strengthen connection, purpose, and freedom with comrades - an urge that has been co-opted by modernity. Society wants men to be disconnected, soft, and weak - malleable instruments in the hands of others. And as a result, we have been alienated from ourselves and what it means to be a man. Consciously or unconsciously, our system does not support man's flourishing but his demise. As a result, depression, suicide, and mental health disorders are running rampant. Young men choose pleasure over purpose, video games over real-world accomplishments, porn and hookups over love, and wind up in meaningless jobs chasing the dollar. They have been emasculated. They have lost themselves. In a recent national survey conducted by Harvard, over 61 percent of

young people between the ages of 18 and 25 reported feeling lonely most of the time. Our young people are hurting, especially the men, but with the pain comes a challenge. Will you be swallowed under the weight of what is the weight of modernity, or will you be the hero of a new life and culture? In order to return to our roots as men, we must reject the modern sickness and heroically live into what is good and beautiful. We must reject the weakness and confusion that the media propagates, reject the make-believe achievements that society pushes, and reject the lust, greed, and promiscuity of a degenerate age. We must turn our backs on the modern decadence, the rat race, and choose new values, or rather old ones. We must go forth heroically toward a life of strength, health, purpose, and community if we are ever going to rebuild a culture that is worth living in, one that is life-giving to all of its citizens and future generations. If we are to build a system that serves us rather than we slave away in it.

there's a woman waiting for the man you are meant to be. A queen who wants to start a family and build a kingdom with you. There's a Brotherhood United in vision and values that is awaiting your arrival and contribution. There is a life of abundance, Harmony, and freedom that is awaiting your full commitment. To be a hero means taking aim at what is true to you and what is best and striving forward. It is heroic to Cast Away the modern confusion and look up toward the ideal. It is heroic to Cast Away the weakness, the addictions, and all the vices that ensnare you. It may be daunting and seemingly impossible, but the heroic spirit is the life-giving Elixir that each one of us and Society needs. You, my friends and the men of the West, have the power.
