A Manifesto for Western Men
With the Western world falling apart spiritually, culturally and economically, we need a clear plan of action to reinvigorate and reawaken the spark within
***This is a work in progress. I’ll discuss it with all members on the upcoming monthly call
Opening Statement
Western men are lost, disorganised and demotivated. This is due to the complete collapse of a cohesive and comprehensive identity rooted in the notion of Tradition. If this isn’t reawakened, the West and Western men will perish.
At present, without spiritual and cultural defence, we are prey to the temptations, rogue ideologies and corrosions of modernity.
This manifesto aims to awaken Western Man to his true self. It feels that the West and the countries therein are facing an existential crisis. Yet far from this being a cause for dejection, it is an opportunity to pick up the flame of our ancestors and reawaken a spark within.
Core Beliefs & Principles
We must spiritually evolve; rather than getting lost in the noise of a fallen world, he is better off regenerating himself within toward renewal, humble service, love, and spiritual realisation
We must be ‘initiated’ into this new way of being via inner work, adventure, sacrifice and challenge
We need communities and tribes that look away from the pull of the world—money, power, women and intoxicants—and towards them becoming guardians of their Tradition—elders who can lead the lost
We aren’t rooted in any hatred of the ‘other’ but love of Tradition, community, meaning and order. The initiated man can source wisdom and align with masters from all manner of backgrounds and traditions, yet treasures his own above all as part of his connection to his civilisation, as well as his ancestors and descendants
We must work to be spiritually clear within (free of anger, resentment, lust, pride, etc.) to face the world authentically, while maintaining physical health disciplines
We must be resourceful, knowledgeable and capable of defending ourselves
While critical of the dictates of modern feminism and the corruption of modern women (and men) due to sexual degeneracy, we love femininity and seek to be honourable, playful, just, and principled in our affairs with the opposite sex
We believe traditional values and hierarchy are natural and healthy; vital ingredients for a functioning, long-lasting society
We remain conscious of injustice to others, animals, and nature
We seek to uphold a future for the West rooted in the wisdom of the Tradition
We Reject
The poisons of modernity: secularism, self-centredness, pride, egocentrism, pleasure-seeking, corruption, lies, sexual degeneracy and unconscious living
Liberal conceptions of peoples and nationhood
Hatred of other peoples or groups; we respect others and their traditions, yet remain loyal to the West and its integrity
Doom-mongering, ‘black-pilling’ and complaining

Oh no... No line breaks, sorry!
This made me think a lot and I enjoyed it..... This may only be loosely connected to the post but I've been wondering how much in common is enough in common to make a group tight and if a large tight group is even possible. Here is an example, I've been training at a local bjj place which prides itself on been community first and community driven. There are maybe 200 members but other than training I have very little in common with almost everyone there. While I can imagine hanging around with a couple of the guys aside from training they all seem to be distracted or interested in the mundane day to day things which often annoy me..... So the connection is surface deep. You see this when in a non training environment and every discussion, joke or reference is back to sparring.... I am starting to wonder what level of commonality is needed for a true deep community.....maybe this is why religion stood the test of time? As it's not just "go to church" but rather "here is how we all live our lives and the things we focus on"...... I tried church a few times but the level of autism there seemed to be off the chart. Now strangely when I was younger, in my 20s I used to box and was friends with everyone in the gym, I can't decide if I was a more simple creature back then, if generally everyone had more in common naturally...... I don't even know if this is a question or observation but thought I'd share it
