Zevism: On Refusing the Camps
Every day, in every feed and every headline, the same scene repeats itself. The banners change. Left and Right, National Socialist and Zionist, one nation against another. But the machinery beneath them never does. Some of these quarrels are current; some are a hundred years old; many are older still. It makes no difference.
They are resurrected on schedule, paraded before us, and made to demand the attention of everyone at once. Today you have to wake up and fight for Israel, before this you had to fight for Germany, and before them both someone had to fight someone else.
The arguments are stretched until they swallow every person and every subject, until no one is left standing outside them. There's compulsive force that one has to engage; similar to Christianity and Islam - which preach that non engagement, for all prices, is the price of eternal hellfire (imagined) to pay.
And the effect is always the same: to keep people depressed, agitated, or militant, and above all mobilized. To be for, or to be against. To always be there to engage in this madness, and there's no observation about what it exactly or precisely serves besides the obvious surface ("This or That side").
Open the news and the script writes itself. Israelis are said to hate Israel. Anyone who criticizes Israel is branded a criminal and an antisemite. Refuse to take a position and you are quietly enlisted in the opposing camp regardless. In reverse, this is also the case for Iran right now; you're Anti-Iranian if you do the same. Labels here, characterizations there. Beneath every variation the instruction is identical: give your attention, and march for a side.
The National Socialist performs the same ritual from the other direction, the obsolete Communist that still argues a dead political system, also. Somewhere, we are told, a German still nurses his old hatred; somewhere events in Europe are made to mean whatever the moment requires. The banner differs; the demand does not: mobilize with us. And so it continues, ideology after ideology: another team, the same force, recruiting by the same method, to do what always appears to be the same outcome: Destroy something and be militant about something.
What unites them all is this: each serves itself and none of its recruits. Nothing is gained by becoming a Nazi, a philosemite, or an antisemite. There is no reward in it but the cheap currency of moral display: the badge that certifies you a good political boy for one category or another. The other hates you, and you must fight for the other one.
Not before long, one's life and one's mind are filled with this: Varvarim, hate. Their thoughts, instead of being on themselves and their lives, a part of them, is steadily projected onto a device that promotes the ongoing misery of mankind, and this energy spent, robs a percent of energy from the individual person who engages all this drama from every side.
The moment you open the News, here is what they do. On one aspect, they inform you. That's the partially valid part. On another aspect, they are energy wasting you: they have, like with so many useless things, the demand that you spend time with them, to gain nothing out of this time. Half of it is written by AI, another is written by professional propagandists, and others just want your "attention" with literally nothing to give back to you, just leave you emptier. The emptier and more warlike the world, the dumber the news.
You browse all the news and finish them, and you realize by the end of it nothing was of true substance; your mood has dropped, they rob time of your day and devalue your own ability to function in your day.
Going back on the "politics", the meanings are confused on purpose. You are promised that this will benefit you somehow: ethically, morally, even practically. After a point one understands why some people focus on FIFA and maybe they are smarter; because in FIFA you aren't called exactly to approve energetically why people must be bombed, unlike the political narratives.
In the political narratives, you HAVE TO simply take the side, and they claim good things will follow; hate this or another Nation and you're doing the "Good Thing". It is the very logic of the ballot: vote, wait, and you are assured the world will improve, and your own life with it, without your having lifted a finger. Write a few posts, declare an "opinion," cast a vote. People truly believe this is the thing that makes the world better or themselves. So far we observe, none of this made the world actually better in the time spectrum.
In Zevism I have abolished politics and all its sub-narratives, the whole spectrum of them, for a single reason: they offer almost nothing to your evolution as an individual. The Zevist wins always more from 1 hour of engagement in Zevism or it's practices, than 1 hour reading the "News" and engaging in this or that political side. Zevism adds to your existential investment to yourself and those around you, these things substract from that value for the same time.
You did not grow existentially because you voted. You did not grow because you posted a slur or a hate message online. You did not grow because you relitigated a quarrel from a century ago. It is a waste of time and a sink for your energy, and no one walks away from it enlarged, save the few who profit by it directly.
And still I am required to give a damn. Are you with Iran, or with Israel? Which side do you represent? Which battalion will have you? Everyone, now, is expected to belong to one. And those who want the wars, and the justifications for them, depend on precisely this: sorting people into formations so they can be marched out to slaughter one another.
They tell me now: You don't care? Then you are an extremist antisemite. You do care? Then you are an extremist anti-Iranian. A loop with neither beginning nor end, built to hold you inside it: a rift of Izfet, where you are made to labor forever at the work of Izfet and existential disarray.
So let me answer these self-appointed sides plainly, both of which enforce the same trap and strain to dictate the same narrative. You're rifts of Izfet and I see you very clearly. Ninety-five percent of the planet does not care and yet, these rifts of pain and misery want to enforce us all to care; to mobilize, to take sides. I have every right not to care, and your characterizations will not summon that care into being.
I will not sit in judgment of what Germany was, right or wrong, a hundred years ago. That is other people's quarrel. I have little interest in Israel, or in whatever may have befallen it as part of all this and their co-existence with Germans 100 years ago. I am not greatly invested in Iran, nor I have to cry at nights because of what's happening there.
In none of these categories do I find an obligation laid upon me. I won't be guilt tripped and gaslighted that if I don't participate in the POLITICAL NARRATIVES, that this makes me "inhumane" either, as I know very well. My one concern, where I have any, is the humanitarian condition of the species. That concern needs no camp to be legitimate. It stands valid before mankind itself.
I will not chase the phantoms that Germany and Israel keep alive in the imagination: the ghosts, the inherited madness, the thing worshipped down in that darkness. I do not believe you are absolved, or divine, or an enemy, on account of where you were born or what flag you were handed. I do not share this death-rift that men have carried for centuries, for millennia. No human being should carry it.
The enforcement of these Yehuboric ideologies is enforced Birburim, worked to manufacture Varvarim. Upon your time they perform Sahiburah, severing you from the body of God and from your own development. In practical terms, they reduce you to Eilotil: a slave to them, and not a functioning, growing individual. The longer you dispute, the more Izfet you create, and even the participants, are actually just generating Izfet on the world; disorder, destabilization, destruction. The more power and attention given to any of them (which the world unfortunately does), the worse.
If people who were called to fight in the Middle East just said "Unfortunately, we don't give a damn about what happens on the other end of the world" and the people in Iran were threatened by Islam but answered "We don't care what the Quran says about the Supreme Leader", and in Israel people said "We don't care what this mentally unstable Rabbi from a few hundreds years ago stated about how we must attack people today", then the wars as you can see, would quickly have no fuel to feed themselves.
The less mankind engages with any of this, the better the world becomes. If people could release what happened a hundred years ago, the world today would already be better. But they cannot release even yesterday. Those who know the spirit understand the discipline that matters: to live in the present, and to hold a good state of being.
Zevists must spend all their hours, their time and consciousness, not on this lesser state of affairs, but on dwelling, partaking with and bonding with higher levels of existence and consciousness. One dwells on Theophoros and acts on this; they become this. One dwells in Izfet and they feed this, they become that.
The choice is very simple and the more one understands it, the more they will laugh at the "power of the ballot" and the more they will see the Matrix of false choices presented in front of us: Most of these choices aren't even yours or for you. Zevism is directly for you, for me, for everyone. We must therefore, pay attention and our time and energy, to what truly reflects back at us. Our Gods and Zevism.
