The Opposition Between the Orientation Toward Family Life and That Toward Public Life
Bronze Age Pervert, Caribbean Rhythms Episode 139
If you're in a secret society, or whatever small group of men, not a secret society, a group of men who devote themselves to, let's say a great scientific task or such, or if you're in Order of Teutonic Knights or Templar Knights or other such, and one of you, he pines to go home to his wife and that's his priority. And he does your thing during the daytime hours for work, or for money, or entertainment, but his real priority is his wife at home. That man is a traitor. And if that sounds extreme to you, this is why nothing gets done today by the way, because of what I just said now, because it sounds extreme to you. Whereas if you took even seventy or eighty years ago, communists, let me say, not fascists because whatever you can say about, you take communists eighty years ago, or you take a group of scientists or artists with the ambition that French artists had in the nineteenth, early twentieth century, everything I have just told you would have been a complete matter of course for them. But if you say it now, you're an extreme nihilist, misogynist, you don't respect family, you don't respect women, you're gay. Well I tell you that any man historically who would have put his wife and private household as his number one priority would have been mocked in an aristocratic society, ridiculed as a stay-at-home, as a househusband, would have been laughed at as a henpecked creature, a woman-man little better than what you call a cuckold now. And that's how these women-oriented males were seen. That's how. Or it would have been something seen maybe appropriate for slaves, or for calculating shopkeepers, or formally, though I dislike this slur, because Nietzsche say it was already obsolete by his time, this is the bourgeois. This is the bourgeois. This is actually what is meant by atomization by the way. A male's descent into private family life, which really means a henpecked husband. And I found it to be an outrage when I sensed this kind of thing in a prospect for a secret society, for example, that he wouldn't put loyalty to our cause and mission above, not everything else, but specifically this, this kind of frivolous thing, this private life of family and such. What an insult to be in a group of men driven by high idealism, let's say, for scientific or mathematical discovery, and to sense that one of you actually, this stuff isn't, it's just something there, but actually it's about his wife. I mention this in book, of course, the lactation rooms. It's an insult. It's not the fact that you have a woman there as such that is an insult, but the fact that the priority of almost all women, also the vast majority of males to be fair, but it's just this: Their pettifogging blinkered horizon of care for daily life, for the family and such.
