Episode notes

The avant-garde branch of magic uses a very simplified set of magical practices. It could be fairly effective if you work hard, like any other magical thing.

In this episode John Michael Greer and I discuss his 'Kek Wars' article series on how the Chans used magick to influence the 2016 elections. We talk about political campaigns as magical performance, 4chan as the collective unconscious of the internet, the lefts failure to recognize a politics of existential crises, the myth of progress, and the antidote to cosmic indifference. 🐙 The Kek Wars Part 1: https://www.ecosophia.net/the-kek-wars-part-one-aristocracy-and-its-discontents/ Primer on Chaos Magick: https://ultraculture.org/blog/2015/11/13/psychonaut-field-manual/
