I just learned about hormesis from Mangan’s blog via a Matt Parrott post at Occident Observer.
Crude anti-semitism functioned as hormesis for Jews:
The Diaspora Jewish community is under long term pressure as the natural checks that hold Tradition in place are removed. Devoid of hormesis, America’s Jewish community faces a “Silent Holocaust” that poses a greater existential threat than the other one — a major theme of John Glad’s recently published Jewish Eugenics. There’s little if any real anti-Semitism to scare them back into the herd. The rabbinate is helpless against the temptations of modernity, sounding increasingly shrill and out-of-touch in the contemporay Western world.
Economic contraction, dispossession, and black on white rape and murder are giving Whites a hormesis we never experienced before, at least in living memory. Here is a definition of hormesis from the above Mangan link:
Hormesis is a term used by toxicologists to refer to a biphasic dose response to an environmental agent characterized by a low dose stimulation or beneficial effect and a high dose inhibitory or toxic effect. In the fields of biology and medicine hormesis is defined as an adaptive response of cells and organisms to a moderate (usually intermittent) stress. Examples include ischemic preconditioning, exercise, dietary energy restriction and exposures to low doses of certain phytochemicals.
As the paragraph above indicates, the benefits of exercise are due to hormesis, the placing of a stress on the organism that strengthens its defenses. Exercise is one of the few certain methods for increasing longevity, calorie restriction being another. Exercise and hormesis: oxidative stress-related adaptation for successful aging:
What I have been calling “mindweaponization” is the reaction to the stressors of the Holocaust of black on white crime and other anti-white stressors.
What I urge is, rather than bowing to these stressors and being pessimistic and feeling defeated; rather to take these blows as ever greater motivation to strengthen our defenses (and offenses).
Black on white crime and the many injustices and dispossessions create energy in the world; an energy that can go towards struggle, or death. Our enemies are fueling our mindweapon army.
I read recently that evolutionary psychology predicts that groups in competition will come to resemble one another. I presume this is because the subordinate group copies the winning strategies of the dominant group.
Mindweaponization will be about adopting some aspects of Asians and some aspects of Jews, in order to reduce the Asian competitive edge over us, and to reduce the power of Jews over us. I don’t think these adoptions will make us any worse people. For example, instead of treating studies and learning as a necessary evil and a trail of exam taking tears, we will approach it with a love of learning and actually enjoy studying. Become more ethnically tribalist will not turn us into crooks and back-stabbers, but rather we will treat our own kind with more charity, and put higher personal investment in our children, rather than being selfish individualists.
It’s our time now! The persecution is like raw uranium dumped on us. All we need to do is enrich it and purify it and use it to our ends.
