New Middle East Perspective
The mass media, with their cult of celebrity and their attempt to surrond it with glamour and excitement, have made Americans a nation of fans and moviegoers. The media give substance to and thus intensify narcissistic dreams of fame and glory, encourage the…
In addition, this has conditioned the American to become accustomed to constant entertainment. To the American this has become a need as necessary to be fulfilled as if it were eating and sleeping. This has had a disastrous effect on the culture by promoting a lifestyle of passive enjoyment, as if life were a show that must remain enjoyable to continue to be watched. The effect of this addiction to entertainment, combined with the foresaking of normal everyday life, has created a population so addicted to merely being amused that the greatest thing to which an American aspires is to sit on a couch and observe other manufactured people living manufactured lives.

This complete denial of real Life represents the foremost obstacle to utilizing or 'waking up' Americans. Even dissident or openly Right Americans don't think twice about wasting time watching their preferred personalities say the same things over and over again—nothing of substance either, but only entertainment.
To those who complain about a lack of action, what are you doing against the spiritual American who only wants to sit and be entertained, who aspires to be a nothing more than part of a crowd in a theater, and who expects nothing more from life than a simple plot, a few jokes, and flashy production?

Virgil, Aeneid (VI, 788-797)
«Now direct your eyes here, gaze at this people,
your own Romans. Here is Caesar, and all the offspring
of Iulus destined to live under the pole of heaven.
This is the hero, this is him, whom you so often hear
promised you, Caesar Augustus, son of the Deified,
who will make a Golden Age in Latium again, in the fields
where Saturn once reigned, and extend the empire beyond
the Garamantes and the Indians to a land that lies outside the zodiac's belt,
beyond the sun's ecliptic and the year's, where sky-carrying Atlas
turns the sphere, inset with gleaming stars, on his shoulders.»

Schwerpunkt discusses the impact and legacy of the Hunnic invasions, which are woefully overlooked by modern historians. So terrifying were the Huns coming from the steppes that the Germanic peoples fled in fear, causing not only the fall of the Western Roman Empire but also putting into motion the Anglo-Saxon invasions of Britain and the far-reaching raids of the Vandals and Goths. So powerful was their impact that it radically altered the makeup of Central and Eastern Europe, leaving a vacuum for the growing Slavic peoples but also paving the way for the other steppe peoples to invade, including the Alans, Avars, Bulgars, and Magyars. So lasting is their legacy that many Eastern Europeans still hold them as part of their history and additionally, as Schwerpunkt mentions, until recently many of the more western Europeans even considered Germans to be 'not white' based on their association with the Hunnic peoples. But as Herr Punkt also brings up, the invading Steppe culture was not really all that foreign to the Roman and the German. Perhaps it even reinvigorated the Uranic spirit in Europe: that old Aryan progenitor spirit that unites the Roman, German, Celt, Slav, and Hun.
