The West Has a Temporarily Dead Culture

In the post about the goat scene from "I Pet Goat II", there's a blurb about the letter "Fe" from the Futhark rune alphabet.

Wealth is a source of discord amongst kin;
the wolf lives in the forest.

That's bad ass. When you'd learn your alphabet, you'd get a pile of poetic wisdom that had been handed down for generations. Today, most people have zero wisdom. People with PhD's in some field can be complete retards in everything else.

The west's culture is dead as a fucking doornail because everyone's inner world has been replaced by the Beast. Culture comes about from sitting around and talking and observing and understanding age old patterns. Wisdom, unfortunately, comes from hard lessons. When life is easy, wisdom is hard to come by.

The culture we have is mostly synthetic or some rehashed version of  a mystery school teaching. It's alien to us.
