This, desu.

I mean, I'm happy OP "sorted himself out" to some degree, hell being a young father is lightyears ahead of being a degenerate shut-in NEET, but I can't help but feel he still hasn't pushed himself further along the road of introspection, development and humanity. The fact the he seems to be inspired by a fascistic worldview speaks to this.

OP, go ahead with your life, but remember, you journey has only BARELY begun. Marry this girl and have your child, but be prepared to face a LOT of questions regarding your identity, your purpose, your sense of fulfilment, etc. If you can stay the course and navigate the inevitable troubles (and it will be fucking tough, trust me), you will be a thousand times the man you are now by the time you reach your deathbed.

It's a result of the insane capitalist nightmare we live in.

Our society is CLEARLY not conductive towards genuine human growth, but as emotional and spiritual development isn't good for the economy, we are all forced to live in states of perpetual dissatisfaction. However, most people, knowing nothing else other than this capitalist society, can't comprehend actually living in a genuinely nourishing world, and so instead turn individualistic "spiritual" archetypes for meaning.

This is why fascist movements so heavily appeal to a sense of quasi-spirituality. What they offer is no more spiritually enlightening than the soulless materialism they reject (in fact it's usually much worse), but because they SEEM to be the only lifestyle that offers both "meaning" AND industrialism, many disaffected people turn to them.

It's quite sad, all in all.

Nah, m8. I quickly grew out of Nordicism and began to study my own race, Welsh race, and its origins etc as well as my own interests in Eastern philosophy, Taoism, Zen, Buddhism, Dharma etc. Also studying and practicing permaculture, researching mushrooms for their medicinal and ecological benefits and shamanic introspection.

The deeper I research Welsh/British history the more interesting Gnostism and astronomy becomes. My whole life revolves around introspection and spiritual ascention. All I want is God consciousness so I can give my best to add to the story of time.

Nice way to reactively judge someone because you don't agree with one of their views tho xD

Nice trips and a pretty girl I'll give you that, but she's seeking too much attention for her reading and whatever else she's doing. Not to mention having nude videos of her online. I got nothing against being comf in your body, but that's going a bit far in seeking attention. Find a girl like that who isn't obsessed with posting her shit online and you've got a pretty good catch.

>You must have a subliminal cuck fetish if you want a French girl

All girls have the potential to be cheating sluts. All Western girls are equally degenerate as French girls nowadays. France just got Jewed into lustful decadence first but other nations are all the same now. British girls ain't what they used to be. Swedish girls... American, Australian, all Western Nations are degenerate. I don't want to settle for a Slav or East Asian because I love my pure Western R1b genetics. The Welsh founded Brittany in France and I suspect thats where all the girls I fidn so attractive come from because they look like me.

And my fantasy with French girls is the opposite of a cuck. I want her to be dressed as a French maid and be obdient to the point of brainwashed (I plan to research hypnosis and Russian psychological conditioning, use of drugs to make them more suggestable etc).

Basically she will be locked in a dungeon and I will find a virgin girl so there will be no such cuckery. I also plan to reconquer France and make it great again like in the time of King Arthur.

Because the idea of struggling with your identity is hilarious. Maybe its true for gay Jews but for me its more like removing distractions and focusing on my original nature. Your true identity is always there underneath everything. This is why I love Japanese Zen and Taoism. Just observe that the source that is creating and maintaining all existence. It's electrifying to just stop and contemplate this in nature.

You can read every philosophy book ever and still your mind will lose its purpose. The truth is in meditation, every moment the truth is there to be harmonized with. Just stop your mind and be led by the spirit.
