Ethnicity, Tribes, and The Sinister Aeon
There seems to be some misunderstanding not to mention controversy about the ONA stance regarding gangs, or tribes, of Dreccs – or Niners – dividing along ethnic lines, and also about the attitude of some them to Whitey. Can you explain the ONA position here?
Firstly, there is no such thing as an ONA stance or position. What there is, are my personal views and opinions, and the view and opinions of others involved with the ONA. Given that the ONA is a kollective – a non-hierarchical association of diverse individuals bound by common interests, goals (some Occult, others not) and by our code of honour – that is how it should be.
Our common interests include subversion and destruction of nation-States by whatever means, the development of new tribal cultures based on our law of honour, our own development and evolution as individuals (esoteric and otherwise), and Presencing the Dark.
Thus, if some ONA people want to found or belong to a tribe, clan, or a gang, of people of the same ethnicity that is fine because that is in the nature of tribes and tribal culture. Indeed, one might go so far as to write that, in genesis, most tribes or gangs – if they are to thrive and prosper – have to be founded on what the members of such a tribe or gang have in common or share, with perceived ethnicity being among the most obvious. Another is language; another is ancestral culture. When a shared language – or a dialect – is joined with perceived outward similarity and with a shared culture, history or traditions, then one has a solid foundation on which to establish a new tribe, clan, or gang.
Also important is a shared enemy or a perceived enemy: that is, a division into ‘us and them’. Into those like us – who live by honour – and who who are not like us, who do not live by the code of personal honour.
What requires understanding is a working-with human nature, not against it. The vast majority of humans are still by nature, by instinct, tribal, communal, beings. That is a strength, a source of positive change, and an enabling of a vivifying personal identity for them.
What the ONA – and groups such as Reichsfolk, and indeed The Numinous Way – do, is make this conscious, rational, and the genesis of further evolution. How? By placing honour between individuals at the centre of the clan, the tribe, the gang; and also by making honour the only basis for law and for justice. Thus, what binds this triad of the ONA, Reichsfolk, and The Numinous Way, together is honour, tribal communities, the cultivation of empathy, and a dislike for the impersonal tyranny of the modern nation-State. All three see a return to personal honour and tribal communities as a prerequisite for our further evolution as human beings; a precondition of genuine freedom. All three emphasize the importance of empathy, and thus of those who, hitherto, have excelled in empathy: women of a certain type.
Furthermore, all three understand the perfidy of the Magian and the tyranny of abstractions; the why and the how of nation-States and abstract laws and abstract Courts of so-called ‘justice’ being a means of control and repression of the individual. Which is why of course all Western nation-States take a dim view of gangs and groups divided along ethnic lines or which have a living ancestral culture as their basis. For such nation-States desire worker drones and identikit clones who pursue materialistic goals, who pay their taxes, and who identify with some artificial lifeless abstraction of a modern nation or State.
But this ranting digression aside – and to return to the question – there is, in respect of the ONA, no abstraction applied to the establishment of new tribes, clans, or gangs. No ideal for them to conform to; no dogma binding them. No -ism and no -ology to restrict them. No hierarchy to regulate and try to control them. For they are living-beings, nexions, life-forms, emanations of the acausal – and to try to restrict or control them in such ways, by such causal things, is to denude them of Life, to deprive them of that unique psyche and ethos and identity which they develope or will develope by virtue of being changing living-beings.
One important aspect of this relates to the hitherto significant division between what has been termed matriarchy and patriarchy, and it is no coincidence that the Magian ethos is, and always has been from its inception, a patriarchal one, denuded of and generally dismissive of, empathy and of the esoteric sensitivity manifest in the Rounwytha of our esoteric tradition and in the Priestesses of other ancient pagan ways.
What all this means in practical terms, and vis-a-vis the ONA – or vis-a-vis we, the Niners (as some of our people are now calling themselves) – is that we allow and encourage the natural process of interaction, of change, and growth, of life-and-death, between these new life-forms. Some will flourish, for whatever reason or reasons. Some will adapt to changed circumstances, and some will decline or die. In addition, there will be some mergers, some flowing of one tribe into another – by means or alliances or otherwise.
Thus, over long durations of causal Time – and we think and we plan and we scheme in such long durations – one or more tribe, clan, or gang will tend to dominate, to succeed, possibly because of good charismatic heroic leadership and almost certainly because of the honour and the loyalty and the duty that binds that stronger community together. This is how it should be - a natural process of change and upward development through the pursuit of arête and through the development of a natural aristocracy that serves honour and the community instead of themselves. A natural process that has been disrupted and replaced by the Magian ethos, by Magian abstractions, and perhaps most of all by the modern nation-State with its corrupt oligarchy and its hubriati and the lifeless tyranny of its laws.
The ONA therefore champions the natural process inherent in the clashing of tribes, clans, and gangs. We inspire or establish new clans, tribes, communities, and gangs – of great diversity and of diverse ethnicity and of culture – and then, having been the genesis of such new life, and nurtured them for a while, we let them develope into adult life-forms with their own nature and character and Destiny.
There is real esoteric wisdom here – an Aeonic understanding and a sinister sorcery – that few, it seems, outside of the ONA understand, let alone appreciate, despite their claims to be Adepts, or ‘High Priests’ or Masters, or whatever.
The form is not the essence. The ONA is a means, not the end. A means to manifest a New Aeon. To aid our evolution as individuals and as a human species and so aid our change into a new species. To bring-into-being or to inspire a practical settlement of the Cosmos and thus establish diverse communities among the star-system of our Galaxy. And so on.
Being practical and esoteric, we can and will use and will develope whatever means are suitable to achieve our aims and goals.
Hence, it is natural and indeed necessary for there to be some conflict; and natural and necessary for there to be practical enemies. Thus, we have new groups bound by Asian ethnicity and certain ancestral traditions. We have new groups bound by a perceived Aryan ethnicity and a National-Socialist tradition, most of which are based on the non-racist ethos of Reichsfolk but two of which preach Aryan supremacy. We have groups bound by Hispanic ethnicity, and even – now – some bound by their shared African-American identity and who know and who feel, rightly, the past perfidy of the White man, what the White hordes of Homo Hubris did to their ancestors.
But we also have groups diverse within themselves, who prefer to be bound by other, non-ethnic, criteria – for instance, Sapphic groups or groups of empaths – and for whom ethnicity is in their view irrelevant, just like conventional religion is irrelevant. Indeed, one of our Sapphic groups in the New World has several Jewish lady members.
I do not claim to be a seer, so it is not for me to make some silly prophecy about which group or type of group will succeed and become the main inspiration for our New Aeon. As the cliché goes, game-on!
Does this mean that Vindex could be non-Caucasian and arise anywhere in the world?
Yes, most certainly, as I do believe Myatt has mentioned in some of his more recent essays concerning Vindex and also in some essays dealing with the White Hordes of Homo Hubris.
Can you explain your comment above about, and I quote, the past perfidy of the White man? Coming from a group many see as neo-nazi that’s quite startling.
As we have sought to explain several times, we both are not, and yet are, a National-Socialist Occult group. Just as we both are, and are not, an Hispanic group – or a Buddhist group, or whatever.
We shapeshift because we are sinister shapeshifters. We are both practical and esoteric. We see forms as causal forms, as a means. If they are useful, and work, fine. If they do not work for us, we try something else.
Once, National-Socialism as a State form showed some promise in certain still Caucasian-dominated lands. So it was tried, for a while, until experience revealed it was not achieving much. So other forms were tried. But those who tried it may have learned something valuable, esoteric, practical, personal, Aeonic. All part of the fluxion that is Presencing the Dark, individual and otherwise. As I mentioned above - some causal form is not the essence.
That some mundanes confused – and still confuse – a form with our essence is just a sign of their mundanity.
As for my remark about the past perfidy of the White man, what exactly is the problem? People of perceived (or even real) Caucasian – or White of Aryan or whatever term is used – ancestry are not now, have not been, and will not be infallible or blameless. They did what they did. In fact, evidence suggests that these people have possibly been the most blood-thirsty and conniving in human history – for instance, in the last two hundred years alone they have been responsible directly and indirectly for the killing of around two hundred million people, through wars, revolutions, invasions, colonialism, punitive sanctions imposed upon other peoples. In a single day they killed 135,000 people by means of an atomic bomb. They dispossessed the Native Americans, participated in the slave trade; repressed African-Americans for over a century; reneged on treaties when it suited them; and so on.
Of course, they had and have excuses for all this slaughter, for all these deeds. Explanations for such behaviour and promises that it will not happen again, that it cannot happen again. But all excuses, explanations, promises, are irrelevant. People are people; human beings do what they do, and no category of human beings – whether the category used to describe them be real or imaginary – is or should be immune to criticism, just as to idealize or romanticise some human group is contrary to the reason and understanding that those seeking the individual development and evolution by means of esoteric groups such as the ONA can and should cultivate.
Thus, we – of such esoteric groups – approach such matters objectively, using facts, evidence, reason. The evidence, the facts, suggest that the peoples commonly designated by the term Caucasian have committed, individually and collectively (as nations and as States), perfidious acts. To wit, deeds of treachery, dishonour and contrary to the so-called ‘civilized’ image of themselves that they assiduously sought to portray.
Therefore, my statement stands.
How long do you envisage it will take to bring down the Magian system?
Who knows? Who does not know? The causal Time for this to occur is not an issue, for us. But it will not occur soon, despite what some people seem to want to believe. All I will say is that we plan, we scheme, we devise in terms of decades and of centuries.
As I have mentioned many times previously, ONA people – Niners – have or they develope an Aeonic perspective. That is, they understand Wyrd, and understand – and come to know, via their own experience – the difference between their own Destiny and Wyrd.
This perspective, such understanding, our Aeonic sorcery on such a long causal timescale, are some of the many things that distinguish us from other currently existing esoteric groups.
Thus, our people have or partake of our Wyrd, and their Destiny is or becomes part of this Cosmic Wyrd. They therefore acquire that sinister character that marks us and which makes our Aeonic sorcery so effective and affecting. For instance, our clans, our tribes, our gangs – and their clashing, and their fight against our common enemy – are all types of Aeonic sorcery, practised by us.
