Loser Syndrome

As Western society continues to collapse, the psychological health of Westerners continues to worsen. As it does, the rate of Loser Syndrome increases, which is the main reason why there’s so much visible trashiness in society today. This essay looks at the causes and effects of this phenomenon.

Loser Syndrome can be found wherever a person has a negative effect upon their social environment because of a weak psychological makeup. Losers are those who cause their family, community or nation more problems than they solve, usually because of a shitty attitude that makes them refuse to put their ego aside long enough to make any positive contribution to anyone else’s life.

It’s not fair to call people losers if they were born with genetic conditions or if they were abused or neglected as children and left with traumatic stress disorders. Such people may be unlucky, but they’re not necessarily losers, as they are still fully capable of entertaining the gods through striving to overcome their conditions. The loser does not strive to overcome; true Loser Syndrome can be understood as a psychospiritual phenomenon.

There are two aspects to Loser Syndrome.

The first is giving up on life. This involves rejecting the reality about life and its temporary nature. The loser has no ambitions apart from vague power fantasies. He mumbles, doesn’t make eye contact when talking, disrespects people, and generally lowers the tone of any environment he’s in. His eyebrows are either knotted in a surly scowl or relaxed in a dimwit gaze. He has surrendered.

Some losers are narcissistic enough to dress and groom themselves well, but give themselves away both through body language and through a child-like solipsism that makes them act as if they were alone in the world (a.k.a. Main Character Syndrome). A predilection for destruction over creation is typical of someone who has given up. As such, Loser Syndrome acts like a cancer in the wider social body, preventing it from thriving.

The second, and most important aspect, is an expectation that others will also give up on life. Anyone who tries hard to achieve something, anyone who strives, is sneered at and ripped down by those afflicted by Loser Syndrome. They would rather that everyone else sink to the lowest level of society, and become like them.

If the loser themselves cannot be venerated, no-one can. So anyone who venerates someone else has to be torn down. Such is the viciousness and depth of the resentment that Loser Syndrome is fuelled by. Those with it are always unhappy to see other people do well. The successes of their friends and family bring them no joy. In fact, such successes can often create further resentment.

Herein it’s clear that Loser Syndrome is a slave morality. Like the other slave moralities, Loser Syndrome lifts up the lowest and most execrable (other losers) and pushes down the honourable and the good (non-losers). The more society hates you, the more the loser likes you, and vice-versa.

If misery loves company, so does trashiness.

To some extent, Loser Syndrome and trashiness are similar things, however Loser Syndrome is unique for its aggression. Many trashy people are happy-go-lucky, whereas the genuine loser strives mightily to take everyone else down. Anyone happy, especially if they’re happy about themselves, has to be attacked.

In this sense, Loser Syndrome can be conceptualised as an advanced form of trashiness, in the same way that psychopathy is an advanced form of narcissism. Trashiness can be fun and light-hearted, but Loser Syndrome is a pathological intensification of trashiness that emanates low vibrations. Normal people can have trashy friends, but they can’t have loser friends, because those losers will either rip the Normies down or find a reason to turn on them.

Unfortunately for us, increasing economic pressures mean that Loser Syndrome is predicted to become more common.

The harsher the economic climate becomes, the fewer people get to enjoy a dignified standard of living, which means the more resentment exists. When inequality reaches such a degree that those born without talents see no hope of climbing the ladder, the destructive intent characteristic of Loser Syndrome will fully explode.

Loser Syndrome is ultimately a social contagion that is emblematic of collapse. No-one in authority seems to give a shit, so why should anyone else? Unfortunately, when someone does start giving a shit, and drives the losers out, chances are they will be an authoritarian psychopath who causes tremendous collateral damage. The loser, therefore, is the harbinger of widespread suffering.

Diversity Fatigue

A new psychiatric condition has befallen Clown World: diversity fatigue. Diversity fatigue is believed to affect the majority of Westerners at time of writing, but is especially strong in major metropolitan centres like London, New York, Paris and Los Angeles. It’s also strong in consumers of mainstream corporate media. This essay explains.

The simple way to understand diversity fatigue is that it’s like future shock but for demographics. Like future shock, it’s a state of becoming mentally and physiologically overwhelmed by reactions to undesired change. The difference is that diversity fatigue is caused by long-term exposure to high levels of tension brought about by diversity.

Diversity of races and cultures means diversity of moral values. This demands greater energy expenditure as each individual has to remain aware of a multiplicity of different ways of doing things. Instead of being able to relax and assume that the person one is interacting with is on the same wavelength, one must constantly expend energy on determining what might offend them.

The major symptom of diversity fatigue is withdrawal.

This initially manifests as a kind of learned helplessness. This occurs when people realise that they can no longer escape diversity. After years of seeing one’s social environment become more diverse and, at the same time, become more violent, insecure and chaotic, people start to tire of new diversity initiatives, and of seeing diverse faces in public areas.

The most acute form of learned helplessness occurs when people realise that diversity is being pushed on them by powerful forces that can barely be comprehended, let alone resisted. People become NEETs, or unhinged conspiracy theorists, when they realise that diversity is a weapon wielded against advanced societies by globohomo.

Understanding the truth, but not being able to speak it, people surrender. Not knowing what sort of humour is still politically correct, people stop making jokes. On a micro level, the individual begins to withdraw from their immediate environment, and retreats into their own heads. This process is often accompanied by intense dissociation.

Withdrawal also occurs on the macro level, with people physically moving away from diversity (usually by moving from an urban to a rural area). Some describe this as ‘white flight’, but it isn’t so much a race-based pattern as a wealth-based one. Wealthy browns and blacks tend to get out of the ghetto as fast as they can, whereas working-class whites tend to get stuck there themselves.

There are several major causes of diversity fatigue.

One of the most obvious is the increased demand on mental energy from being exposed to foreign languages, cultures and moral schedules, sometimes multiple such. A person has to strain their attention in order to determine which language is being spoken, or which cultural or moral values are currently prevailing, which costs energy.

This process is amplified when the fashionable classes invent new words, or moral imperatives, that everyone has to keep up with or be shunned from society. The New Zealand ruling classes are doing this right now by turning the local dialect of English into an English-Maori creole, and then ostracising anyone who can’t or won’t speak it, inevitably accusing them of racism first.

Related to this are the increased mental energy demands from exposure to all manner of novel threats. Some of these threats are physical, in the form of violence or theft, but others are social, such as threats to one’s reputation if one doesn’t keep up with the latest moral fashions. Because diversity usually brings with it higher levels of violence or property crimes, people in diverse societies are forced to spend extra energy maintaining vigilance.

Other energy drains come from demoralisation.

The major source of demoralisation in Clown World today comes from constantly being called racist by authority figures. In this regard, racism serves the same niche that sexual desire served 500 years ago – an excuse that authority figures use to browbeat us into submission. Where the medieval priest told everyone they were evil because they had sexual thoughts, now our moral leaders tell everyone they are evil because they believe in racial differences.

This relates to the other major source of demoralisation: all the lies one is asked to accept. Every honest person knows that different races have different gene frequencies, and that human behaviour patterns are mostly genetic, and therefore different races naturally have different behaviour patterns. It’s humiliating to have people constantly demand that one ignore the evidence of one’s own eyes, and pretend that human biodiversity isn’t real.

Physiological exhaustion and demoralisation combine to give us the ever-present “It’s all so tiresome” mindset that is true diversity fatigue.

Unfortunately for us, our rulers appear to have understood that diversity makes the populace fatigued and thereby less willing and able to come together to resist exploitation and injustice. Amazon understands that diverse workplaces are less likely to unionise, and by a similar logic, diverse electorates are less likely to oppose their ruling classes.

Humour Is The Antidote To Mass Psychosis – That’s Why Totalitarians Want To Ban It

Comedy is dying all over the West. It seems like it’s now impossible to make a joke about anything without getting cancelled, banned from everything and one’s life destroyed. A parade of comedians have been cancelled in recent years, and now an atmosphere of sombre dread hangs over every country. But this dark turn of events can be easily explained, as this essay will show.

All totalitarian regimes strongly discourage humour. The Christians of the authoritarian right killed people for it, the Nazis of the authoritarian centre killed people for it and the Commies of the authoritarian left killed people for it. If the essence of libertarianism is light-hearted levity, the essence of authoritarianism is taking everything extremely seriously – or being made to.

Humour is chaos. By its very nature, it’s unpredictable. No-one has ever been able to write an accurate guide to reliably producing humour, because humour has to be unexpected in order to be funny. Because humour is chaotic and unpredictable, it works like a dissolving acid against stale, stagnant and superfluous ideas and political structures.

It’s this chaotic effect that causes totalitarians to seethe about it.

Totalitarianism is, in its metaphysical essence, an excess of order. It’s when the finest details of every person’s life have been determined by someone above them on the dominance hierarchy. Totalitarianism is ultimately borne by fear: the more afraid an individual or a population is, the more they want a Big Daddy to come in and set everything right. Fear leads to the desire for the imposition of order.

In order for totalitarianism to be possible, the masses have to be conditioned to accept it. But they can’t be conditioned into sanely accepting it, because a sane person, not being afraid, will not accept submission to totalitarians. As such, the masses have to be made to insanely accept it – they have to be driven mad by relentless propaganda so that they throw themselves into the arms of those who would rule them.

The totalitarians seize power by deliberately creating mass psychosis. This is a form of hypnosis, whereby the masses are hypnotised into following the will of their rulers. This is achieved by overloading the minds of the masses so that they don’t have enough mental bandwidth to process all the stimulation coming in. A mind overloaded by stimuli is less able to resist suggestion. So the totalitarians overwhelm the resistance of their subjects by blasting them with ceaseless fear-producing propaganda.

Humour counters this by clearing the mental slate from overstimulation.

As such, humour breaks down the conditioning effect of mass psychosis, and thereby liberates people from the grip that totalitarians have on their minds. Totalitarianism preys on fear, in particular the fear that induces people to keep their heads down in case they get punished, and humour dispells this fear, instead inducing people to stand up straight and to defy those who would rule them.

The reason why Marxist Human Rights Commissioner Paul Hunt took to the mainstream media to have VJM Publishing cancelled for selling ‘It’s Okay To Be White’ t-shirts is precisely because they were humourous. Authoritarian leftists like Hunt consider their ideology to be Very Serious Business. As such, plebs like VJM Publishing are not allowed to make fun of it. Despite being clearly satirical, the slogan was declared to be “white supremacist” and the t-shirts pulled.

The Quadrijitu informs us that these things go in cycles. When life is good, people roll over for totalitarian measures because they’ve got too much to lose by rocking the boat. When life is bad, people keep their heads down. But when things get really bad, and people no longer have anything to lose, anger arises, and this anger leads people to take action despite the threat of consequences.

This current wave of totalitarianism will only end when a new generation of fearless comedians stands up and takes the piss again. VJM Publishing made an effort to mock the direction the Western World was headed with our book Clown World Chronicles – our most successful book in ten years of operations. We haven’t been cancelled for it (so far), and this is what the world needs more of – people standing up.

Humour doesn’t have to be good to serve as the antidote to totalitarianism. It doesn’t have to be intelligent, tasteful or even funny. The most important thing is that it is irreverent. This irreverence breaks the spell of the mass hypnosis and stops people from seeing totalitarians as authority figures. So if you want to do something about the totalitarian direction the West is moving in – take the piss out of an authority figure.

Signs That You’re Not Gonna Make It

Life in the West is getting tougher and tougher. The more perceptive of us are now aware that the whole system is unravelling, and that it may soon become extremely challenging to continue surviving. The grim reality is that not all of us are gonna make it. This article describes some ways that a person can tell if they themselves are not gonna make it.

You believe that the authorities are altruistic.

If you had shitty parents, you will have one advantage in the coming age of the world: you will have already lost faith in authority. Most people who grew up with decent parents blindly trust what they’re told by authority figures, and this makes them vulnerable to demagogues. Those people feel that the government is just like another set of parents: powerful, and willing to use that power in the service of justice.

Anyone who still believes, since the transition to Clown World some two decades ago, that the authorities are altruistic will be lining up for experimental vaccines like the citizens of Jonestown lined up for the Koolaid. The truth is that the authorities value your life as much as they valued the lives of the soldiers they sent charging into German machinegun fire – i.e. not at all. If you still trust the authorities to be looking out for your best interests, you’re not gonna make it.

You don’t understand that conspiracies are always happening.

‘Conspiracy theorist’ is an insult nowadays, used to smear someone as a paranoid schizophrenic who sees dangers where they don’t exist. As far as the Establishment is concerned, anyone who doesn’t trust them is a conspiracy theorist. The mainstream narrative today is that anyone who questions the mainstream media is by default a conspiracy theorist, and therefore mentally ill.

The truth is that conspiracy theories are happening everywhere and at all times. Read any history book, and it will recount numerous conspiracies by various groups of actors against other groups. Adam Smith once observed that “People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public,” and this is just as true today as it was of his time.

If you don’t realise that conspiracies are being hatched almost every time there’s an incentive for any group of people to do so, you’re not gonna make it.

You can’t sit still in peace.

The entertainment industry makes hundreds of millions of dollars every year in America alone. This industry exists because of boredom. Ideally, a person could sit down for an entire evening and read a book, not needing external input. In practice, most people need to spend money on Netflix, OnlyFans and similar shit. Such people are dependent on the matrix.

The sort of person who needs constant thrills will be at an extreme disadvantage in the coming age of the world. Being dependent on the corporate media for entertainment means that the Establishment can shit directly into your skull during the ad breaks, and you’ll accept it as normal. If you can’t meditate in silence for at least ten minutes, you’re not gonna make it.

You believe that the Justice System is there to protect and serve the citizenry.

Young children are taught that the police are there to defend them from criminals and other bad guys. Television shows like Cops paint a picture of a world of violent criminals held in check by a thin blue line. In reality, the police are the army of the rich, and were raised to defend the property claims of the rich. They’re often as bad as the criminal gangs.

The difference between a prostitute and a police officer is that the prostitute will let you do things to her for money, whereas the police officer will do things to other people for money. If you have never reflected upon the fact that almost every human rights abuse in history has been carried out by the local security services, and that the police of your country would load you into cattlecarts as soon as they were given the order, you’re not gonna make it.

You believe that “If it wasn’t true, they couldn’t say it on the news”.

It’s possible that, in some halcyon former time, the news was compiled by honest people who wanted to inform their nation about relevant issues. That was a long time ago. Today’s mainstream media is a propaganda outlet for the Establishment. That became clear to everyone when they did the cheerleading for the Iraq War, and they’ve only become worse since then.

Every mainstream media enterprise has an owner and, today, that owner is likely to be a multinational asset management firm. They can say whatever they like on the news, because the people who own the news companies also own the politicians, and those people want to keep their dirty dealings secret. So the reality is closer to “If it was true, they couldn’t say it on the news.” Anyone who still gets their information from the mainstream television news is not gonna make it.

You think the brain generates consciousness.

The entire mainstream academic establishment will tell you that the brain generates consciousness, and therefore the death of the physical body entails the extinction of consciousness, and therefore life is meaningless. This is despite the fact that the greatest of all scientists, such as Plato, Newton, Schroedinger, Bruno and Planck, believed the exact opposite.

The truth is that our great war is a spiritual war. The idea that the brain generates consciousness is otherwise known as the big lie of our age, because it enslaves people with the despair of nihilism. This is why people who believe the brain generates consciousness so often die deaths of despair – if life is meaningless, why engage with it? The divine is completely absent from the lives of such people.

Anyone who thinks the brain generates consciousness is simply not gonna make it.
