Because it represents complacency. It is an inward turning in search of meaning in the face of crisis--rather than an outward turning to confront the challenges of the world and our times.

All those who push stoicism like Evola (from a literal glance at someone's recent suggestion of "ride the tiger"), are just selling you the poison of "do nothing because you have no power to change anything except yourself."

The whole quote is "Ride the tiger, but be ready to kill it when it slows down".

If you're stuck in a relatively low income job but getting by? Get on EBT/medicare and use the money you're now saving on food/healthcare to arm up. If you're applying to go to school, pretend to be a genderqueer faggot "white Hispanic" and up your odds of acceptance and getting grants/scholarships.
All too often has a struggle been lost because one side blindly adhered to excessive honor. This is a fight for our lives and the lives of our people, be ready to fight dirty or be ready to die.
