Another analysis about Hitler's religion |
|
[quote]theological totalitarianism sacrifices God�s benevolence |
|
and love to his omnipotence. God�s omnipotence is not one of |
|
benevolence and love, but God�s �love� is his power. That is why |
|
Hitler can interpret the annihilation of the German people as |
|
the will of the Almighty: the German people were simply unworthy |
|
of divine election. |
|
The two operations, the formal and the content-related, are |
|
connected. Benevolence loves plurality, the manifold, the other. |
|
Through this it gains sovereignty and is free of resentment. |
|
Repressive power, on the other hand, loves exclusion, |
|
homogeneity, and above all itself. Since this love, just like |
|
the sovereignty of power in general, is mostly fictional it has |
|
to work itself up into a desperate spiral of outperforming |
|
itself.[/quote] |

If loving power is for the sake of destroying Western tribalism |
|
and making the world ideologically homogeneous to follow a |
|
universal ideology, is that good? The unfortunate reality is |
|
that our enemy despises empathy and loves power for the sake of |
|
maintaining their global exploitation. And a struggle can easily |
|
suffer defeat or be wiped out if it does not gain sufficient |
|
power. If we want universalist morality and socialism above all, |
|
there is nothing wrong with gaining and respecting power. If we |
|
want to exclude and expel the westerners and their adherents, |
|
there's nothing wrong with respecting power. If our people |
|
betray our leadership, whose goal is to defeat the enemy, is it |
|
bad to consider them unworthy? |

This is tribalism. |
|
"If loving power is for the sake of destroying Western tribalism |
|

|
universal ideology, is that good?" |
|
No, because we should prefer Western civilization to never have |
|
existed in the first place. Therefore even though I agree we |
|
must possess power and use it to destroy Western civilization, |
|
we should hate having to do so. The moment we love possessing or |
|
using power, we are corrupted. |
