NIHILISTIC VISION  

Before a revolution can occur you must first imagine a different state of affairs


The CounterOrder credo: To invert consensus, extract the reciprocal of orthodoxy, turn the world upside down, shake it and see what fails and what remains.

Many ask, what are the benefits of nihilism? In order to see the benefits you must first begin to visualize the nihilistic alternative. Although these images and ideas may seem anachronistic their power and significance should not be underestimated. If you cannot imagine a new situation or event than you cannot achieve it. People build and perpetuate what they already know not what they cannot visualize, this is why revolutions always seem impossible in the present yet inevitable in hindsight. Indeed, history has demonstrated over and over that outcome is defined by boundaries; redefine the boundaries and you will redefine the outcome.

The Nihilistic vision is about a chance to begin again without the shackles of history and the burden of accumulated lies and myths. A new world where you matter because of what you are and what you can do not where you are or what you own. The vision is crucial because one can't conquer the flaws of the present without first imagining the form of the future.

The nihilistic vision is a positive result extracted from a negative event. This vision is very much an apocalypse but only for those that have had their chance and ruined it for everyone, the failing, ruling-elite. Yet for everyone else interested in health and renewal it is a brilliant new dawn. This momentous change is of the near future, looming and portentous angry and promising like a storm on the horizon. People fear the consequences but the shrewd revel in the bountiful opportunities bestowed by the aftermath for the best time to rebuild is after the storm. For those who heed - prepare for the beginning, it's closer than you think.

The beginning is the end of sin. All transgressions both individual and collective are forgiven and national crimes annulled. There is no redemption ... but there is no guilt; there is flawed human conduct ... but no false justifications.

Level the cities those putrid piles of poison. Dense population concentrations characteristic of the metropolis only serve to provide ideal incubators for virulent and ever more pernicious sicknesses. Deforestation and urban sprawl scatter and disturb natural wildlife allowing disease and vectors to thrive and spread when they would otherwise be kept in check by the natural balance of life. Once these cancers are razed localism will finally triumph over globalism; instead of blanket edicts from on high, rules and solutions will start and address where they're needed - locally. The power-pyramids will be crushed that fascists, elitists, and tyrants erect to insulate and perpetuate disproportionate authority while evading responsibility. In place of elitist force we’ll have a naturally self-balancing and self-adjusting system characterized by mutual relations and a wide distribution of power.

Time will no longer accrue into infinity but rather will count down to the next beginning. The calendar will no longer start at 1 but end there. 100-1? 500-1? Details, details... At the top of time, all chains broken, all previous debts public and private will be annulled, all currency voided, all laws deleted.

All paper and electronic money will be zeroed out, and records will be purged to reset ownership and eliminate the tyranny of fictional wealth and the institutions that perpetuate it. Faceless bureaucrats can't manage your care in old age or any age without theft or mismanagement because they have no inherent concern for your well being as only the self does. All buildup, all waste legislation, paperwork, and currency emptied and distributed for recycling and fuel for warming homes.

Instead of building mechanical machines without care or spirit we will build humans using what we have and what has already been achieved through thousands of years of natural selection. The beauty of organic carbon life will be placed ahead of the artificial lifelessness of the silicon chip. Progress will mean gradually improving near-perfection rather than reinventing from scratch what can never be but imperfect mechanical machines. We will have respect and admiration for life and its infinite potential, rather than ruining it or paving over it!

Reciprocally beneficial sexual intercourse is the worship of life and natural human behavior. Through the management of impulse and an awareness of instinctual purpose, rather than the futile attempt to ignore or misdirect, we will do away with associated perversion, repression, and mental illness. By breaking the binders that unnecessarily restrict our society we will create a realm of freedom to say what we feel and expound what we think, for a life to be used but not abused while seeking sensations and smarts amid the unclouded clarity of cogent comprehension. Your greatest gift is your mind and body; don't waste it - utilize it.

Everyone can have a new name. Finally, every individual will have the opportunity to describe themselves not as someone else decides but as they decide. What will matter is not what role you play in the dramatic farce of contemporary society but who you are and what you can contribute. This will finally divide the parasites and the producers. Only those that can and do participate to rebuild will receive any reward or status. The parasites receive nothing but ostracism and death.

Safe havens for solitude and sanity will exist in a physical and non-literal sense allowing for introspection imagination and reasoning unfettered or oppressed by the intrusive presence of authority. This freedom of the mind is as important to human life as air and water.

Destruction to the false protectors of harmony and society: all police and military dissolved with their weapons distributed to the participatory social contributors; because the only person that can really defend you is yourself. Through a network of individual militias collective and individual defense assumes its proper role. Thus we each gain freedom, self-sufficiency, purpose, and safety, thereby creating healthier minds and bodies.

A plan is secondary to the ideas because the artificial structures around us, the outcome, is a product of the collective vision and once concepts are implemented details sort themselves out afterwards. New and superior product will grow on the ash heap of the old.

The events of the 21st century will not be written by the powers of the 20th. These forces, though appearing unstoppable today, are nevertheless doomed by their very own endogenous flaws; their day in the sun is about to be done. Many will try to revive and reuse but they will all fail, merely replaying the same destructive inevitable. The weaknesses of authorities are the strengths of freedom.

World history is punctuated by deluded masters of conflict, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Napoleon, and even Hitler. What are they known for? Conquering everything and unifying nothing. The nihilistic vision will conquer nothing and unify everything. Today you have the luxury of making the decision your descendants can't, choose carefully which side of the bulldozer to be on.

From revolution into evolution the new human species arrives.

A new playground awaits the few with the capacity and the motivation to reach for it:
