>>324987>Enshrining violence and valour in poetic form preserves it as something to be celebratedI think the glorifying of violence in books is fine so long as the narrative target is purposed at specific tyrannical elements limiting the freedom of other characters’ lives. But this isn’t the case with the Homeric poems, which celebrate indiscriminate violence and bloodshed in circumstances of pointless war. Agamemnon for instance is a basic fat greedy king who craves more power, whom Homer describes as Οἰνοβαρές, κυνὸς ὄμματ᾿ ἔχων, κραδίην δ᾿ ἐλάφοιο, wine-heavy, having the eyes of a dog, and the heart of a deer. And yet the whole of the Iliad features innocent brainwashed young soldiers dying on the behalf of the ambitions of this slob king. Though this was probably near the belligerent conditions of the ancient world, where half-deranged rulers led young men to their deaths. But our own modern day isn’t much different, where masonic puppets (presidents, prime ministers) of jewish bankers lead young men to their deaths.
>Because the cycle of violence is a cycleViolence is the native quality of all biological life. A gnostic interpretation would be that the demiurge set us in a loop to devour each other. But I don’t necessarily support this view.
>What I think the Greeks knew, and modern living is perhaps learning painfully once more,I think the Greeks understood this when we find the sentence: Βίος κέκληται δ' ὡς βίᾳ πορίζεται → Vi quia paratur vita, vita dicitur
It has been called life (bios) because it is supplied with force (bia). And then this is carried into Latin with similar alliteration as: Vi quia paratur vita, vita dicitur — Because life (vita) is prepared with force (vis), it is said life (vita).
I maintain that there is nothing wrong with this however so long as the carrying of force (violentia) is managed by a just ruling party (which at this moment in our world it is not).
> is the limits of rationality in the broad populaceIf this is your way of saying the goyish herd is a stupid animal, then I agree with you.
