🏜️New Substack: Understanding Plane Theory The relationship of Humanity and Geography and how it affects culture open.substack.com/pub/aridoameri…

@fatiguedgroyp White nationalists will betray. You. You have more in common with local Indios than you do with these wignats. I do too, and I’m a gringo (though we’re from the same landscape and are thus brothers).

Some people may see my profile says I live in Mexico. That's true, but not by choice. We White people are a minority in Mexico and I defend White Nationalism. I'm from the Republic of Nuevo León which is mostly White, and is more American than Mexican.

It was an artificial inversion of that people. Born from their real social institutions and deep yearnings; Turned against them. The true face was the Indios or the Hispanos in Indo-Hispano didn’t matter. They picked lesbian communism and democrat slavery above their own people.

@markymarkxbt @ScottMGreer They aren’t. Both of us have been lied to and gaslit about the other.

@AridoAmSubstack @ScottMGreer They already are that's not a hypothetical

Euro anti-Americanism would make more sense if they offered a better alternative to America. But modern Europe isn't that different from America and, in a lot of aspects, is worse. The EU is not a BASED Imperium.

@txgermanbre Hmmm, I wonder if we had any good methods to build like that. Beats me, the world may never know.

Phoenix needs to do this asap: it wasn’t as hot when the state wasn’t all concrete

@vibeocracy Course it’s an Asian woman

I didn’t realize the young family that got killed was Latino. Rest in peace. This woman should be dispossessed.

We should ban east coast ameircans from existence

@MosiniElisa Step one of an independent Europe is not haven’t just a clone of American foreign policy. This is Americanization.

The proposal by Renew Europe for a NATO-style trade alliance between the EU, Canada, Japan and South Korea is gaining momentum A collective economic defense pact: tariffs and sanctions against one would be treated as against all We have to stand united against economic coercion

@mikitaposts They’re the barrier breakers. They rebelled and have now lost.

If you set this precedent, then there is nothing stopping Republicans from doing the same to Democrats once they’re back in office. And now you’ve just destroyed the peaceful transfer of power.

Plane Theory wins again

@Observateur2024 @MarionVanR If the E.U. accepts Canada and Australia it leaves the door wide open for that. But also South Africa and others. And it’s not a quality of life thing either because Canada realistically is below the US in that now. Hell even the happiness index admitted it.

@AridoAmSubstack @MarionVanR That’s unlikely, unless someone runs on a "Project 1775" platform.

L’idée d’intégrer le Canada dans l’Union européenne fait son chemin. Le Royaume-Uni cherche sans oser le dire à annuler son Brexit. L’Ukraine candidate attend une date d’adhésion. Vers un Occident sans l’Amérique.

Zuni Pueblo (A:shiwi) is known for its deep-rooted cultural traditions, distinct language (Shiwi’ma), and world-renowned jewelry and pottery. It is the largest of New Mexico’s 19 Pueblos, w/ a population over 10,000. #travel #NativeAmerican #Ashiwi #ZuniPueblo #NewMexico #tours

@markymarkxbt @ScottMGreer Would you agree that the American right should be anti euro then?

@ScottMGreer Hating America as a Euro rw-er is the correct position, we don't need to entertain all kinds of hyperboles for that. We may or may not get a better alternative but that's irrelevant. No right wing movement can be successful by affirming US hegemony over the continent.

@BBoegvald @Parodyjeffx It’s fake

The US is going to go after Greenland regardless. If we join the aggression against Iran, Trump will know we’re willing to bend international law for the US; and he’ll use that against us on the Greenland issue. If we refuse to join, the US will simply take Greenland as punishment (official reason: because the US cannot trust us). Either way, there’s no reason to bow to the US.

INFO-ALERT🚨⚠️ Trump threatens to invade Greenland again if Europe doesn’t help him against Iran.

@the_mas_view @MisterMangeaux @Treeless_North @Parodyjeffx No it’s not.

@MisterMangeaux @Treeless_North @Parodyjeffx It is real. We are living in a bizzare world

@Fedekk2014 @Aelthemplaer It’s fake

"AHH MR PRESIDENT WE FUCKED UP IN IRAN, QUICK PICK A NEW SLOP CYCLE TO DISSECT!" "OoOoO ACK!"

@Naifalbidh @yung_lindy More and more I’ve learned about the counter culture, the more I’ve see it’s them trying to mutate to articulate that cultures prime symbol; but falling just short by letting faustianism take over. Is it mimicry? Mutation? I don’t know.

@yung_lindy I would say yes and no, there seems to be two common mistakes where 1) people mistake globalization for planetization and 2) where people mistake Aridoamerican culture (a new potential high culture in America) for the west or a planetary culture. Follow @AridoAmSubstack

William Irwin Thompson and the Coming Planetary Culture: We live in a culture that we do not see. We don't live in industrial civilization; we live in planetization. What we see as the present is really the past; what we envision as the future is actually the present. We don't see it because the artifacts – things, institutions, ideas – we have created to reflect our activity are basically appearances, as McLuhan would say, in the rear view mirror. – William Irwin Thompson (1985) The late William Irwin Thompson perfectly understood the lack of historical consciousness and instinct in modern humanity. What he described above was what he called the "Swan Song" effect, what we perceive as reality – the modern buildings, clothings, music, and institutions around us – is the swan song of an unconscious structure and reality that had emerged centuries ago and is currently dying, hence "swan song" effect. This is precisely why Oswald Spengler argued that modern world cities of the Faustian West, New York, London, and Paris, are the tombstones of Western culture. Thompson echoed Spengler's critique of modernity, eloquently I might add, but unlike Spengler, his vision of the future was more optimistic. Thompson argued that behind the conscious structures of civilization is a unconscious structure that is hidden, and slowly emerging to shape the future planetary culture without us even noticing. This unconscious reality is expressed in the drastic shift in the global climate, perhaps perfectly reflected today by the solar flares that have bombarded the planet the past months, and will continue to throughout the next coming years as we enter a solar maximum. The geomagnetic storms as a result of the solar flares will lead to events of a global significance that we all inevitably experientially share, thus as Thompson argued, they bring us weirdly closer to one another, hence, planetization. The odd thing about solar maximums, almost like Thompson's unconscious structures, is that we cannot know that we are in it until we are six months in one. That is of course using modern paradigms and methods, there are many individuals working at the periphery of the conscious structures of civilization that already reflect the methods and approaches of predicting weather and natural phenomena of the upcoming planetary culture, hence their rejection, and/or marginalization by mainstream scientific communities (@hogrbe; @SunWeatherMan). The unconscious is also expressed in individuals that are situated at the periphery between the conscious structure, "civilization", and the unconscious reality, marginalized thinkers, mystics, and artists, all expressing the same unconscious reality despite their political stance. Spengler himself was sensitive to the unconscious reality of his own time, hence the accuracy of his predictions. Thompson also reminds us that some of these cultural archetypes exist deep within the unconscious, this perhaps applies to some mystics and artists that reflect the tragic reality of the modern artist and hermit. Their extreme sensitivity leads to a break with the conscious reality, as they immerse themselves into the collective unconscious leading to powerful artistic or spiritual expressions, but more extreme mental breakdowns as well. The unconscious is also expressed negatively in shadow economies, in the activities of the military industrial complex, drug cartels, and human trafficking activities, all lurking at the periphery between the conscious and unconscious civilizational structures. Industrial societies destruction of the Amazon forest is a perfect example of this war occurring at the threshold between the conscious and unconscious realities (more than 20% of the Amazon forest has been subject to deforestation this century alone the last time I checked). What backs Thompson’s argument is the relationship between the Amazon rainforest and the Sahara Desert, that the dust that necessary to sustain life in the Amazon comes from the Sahara Desert itself, almost alluding that our planet in itself is sentient and alive, a point that industrial society neglects for its short term economic goals. Modern culture further negates nature through attempts in re-engineering the weather, cloud seeding or pluviculture, cloud zapping, or cloud dissipation technology, are all common today, and all reflective of the battle between industrial society and Mother Nature – the conscious and unconscious structures. Transhumanism and technological accelerationism are also expressions of these tensions at the metaphysical plane. Although I do not agree with Thompson that the future emerging culture would be a planetary one, I believe he was accurately predicting a future emergent culture beyond the West, as well as the final phase of a hypermodern Western Faustian expansion. Thompson himself was immersed in the West, and his theory could be argued to be culturally relative, as Spengler ironically argued concerning his own philosophy of history. Yet this is not a criticism, rather, a compliment, since thinkers who are sensitive towards the unconscious and immerse themselves into their own culture, knowingly or unknowingly, are usually gifted with prophetic insights. This explains why Thomspson’s predictions in It’s Already Begun: The Planetary Age is an unacknowledged Daily Reality (1985) describe our cultural realities too accurately when he predicted the “Californication” of the whole world, and said: So what you have, with that Southern California world Californicating the entire world, is a radical shift in consciousness in which you comfort people by performing the past and affirming it so that you can ease the transition into a radical new consciousness. Because if people really had it too fast, there would be an even worse kind of fundamentalist reaction of whatever variety around the world you want to point to. I argue that we are at cusp of a paradigm shift, a central principle or idea unifying all different ideas of this upcoming paradigm, is the spiral, which could be seen as a negation, and synthesis, of linear and cyclical directionality, perceptions of time, and social dynamics. Thompson was known for advocating a spiral curriculum to replace our linear curriculums, which he believed would transform academia as a whole, and perhaps culture. Thompson, along with Spengler, Quigley, Walter Russell, Gebser, Nikola Tesla, Carl Jung, Jaspers, and many others, was part of this upcoming paradigm shift, his works, along with others, are precursors of the new system of knowledge that will begin to emerge in the near future.

BREAKING: Democrats are planning "Project 2029," a plan to jail Trump, his family, and members of the current Trump administration.

@eujilw Not that Caesar Chavez. This one.

@AridoAmSubstack But isn't he just a boxxer? What did he do for americans to start talking about him as if he were deeply involved in american politics?

The speed they’re removing Caesar Chavez from Hispanic discourse makes me think that though he had issues; this seems orchestrated. A total hit job. It’s too clean, too fast.
