when i say “skittering across the floor/into a room” this is what i mean (!!!!! Im freaking out about this)

[deactivated-blog]

Thoughts on the connection of Thelema and the Proud Boys?

This is about this photo, right?

The man in the middle is apparently Gavin McInnes, founder of the Proud Boys organization.

I have no idea who the loser on the left of the picture could be, and that doesn’t really relate to the question. The person on the right side of the image is a former Ordo Templi Orientis member who died a few months after the photo was taken.

His hoodie features the classic Thelemic sign off of “93” and the unicursal hexagram used by Thelemites. I’m not sure where the hoodie was made or if it was sold by any particular Thelemic group. For the record, the Ordo Templi Orientis removed the person in question from membership shortly after this photo became public.

Following the man’s death a few months later, there was a movement towards reinstating him as a member post mortem. I’ve no idea if that succeeded or if he was reinstated. I’m no longer a dues-paying Ordo Templi Orientis member, and haven’t been for years. It’s probably not my business whatever they’re doing, trying to do, or talking about. I’m not even a Thelemite these days. And I’m a lot happier because of it.

As you might expect, there was a slight bit of controversy among non-Thelemites and non-occultists about the image in question, which became very public and is often used in articles about the Proud Boys. Some suggested this was a sign of heavy occult involvement among this group.

Honestly, I’ve not seen that outside of the one singular person pictured wearing the unicursal hexagram. As I understand it, the majority of these people in this group are not interested in the occult, and would probably call themselves some vague form of Christian. If anyone else here has any evidence otherwise, let me know and I’ll hold my nose and research this further.

Granted, the Thelemic groups on Facebook, to this day, will see posts of this image with questions about him. I don’t participate in those groups and have left most of them. When this pops up on the one I’m still in, I usually jokingly comment “we have this thread every day,” because I think everyone’s sick of seeing and hearing about it.

That’s all I can really say about the connection between Thelema and the Proud Boys in particular. As to the potential connection between fascism and general right-wing or alt right alliance among Thelemites in particular, the question is a lot more complex.

You’ll find people on Twitter adamantly assuring us that “Fascism has no place in Thelema,” and “Thelema is inclusive,” etc. Now, my husband argues that such people haven’t actually read much of Aleister Crowley’s writings, and says that a particular passage in his commentaries on the Book of the Law clarifies that Thelema is fascist aligned, if not directly, in terms of tenor and general principles.

Crowley himself did write about the evils of “ferocious fascism and cackling communism,” but that’s relatively meaningless as far as I’m concerned. Plenty of people who are very clearly fascists say similar things. How many Facebook people have you met who talk about how they “hate Nazis and commies,” but are generally okay with the alt right?

If you want to know more, I’d suggest just reading some Crowley (particularly his commentaries on the Holy Books of Thelema). I’m not a Thelemite these days for quite a few reasons. One of them, though, is that I saw people struggle to defend the argument that “Thelema is inclusive and totally not fascist at all and we can ignore everything that gives the appearance otherwise,” while many Thelemites (some I had the displeasure of knowing personally) jumped into the alt right headfirst.

When my husband wakes up, I will try to bribe him with food and see if he’d be willing to write a guest post here on his views about the potential Thelemic connection to fascism. He has strong opinions on it. I can’t promise he’ll write one, but we’ll see. He’s sure done enough ranting about this elsewhere, being that he’s still heavily interested in ceremonial magic and keeps running into Thelemites, of course.

Anyways, witchblr, I hope this clears up at least some of the questions about the matter at hand. There’s probably a lot more to be said by better writers and researchers than me. I’d rather not revisit the Thelemite stuff too much, though - it wasn’t exactly a joyful part of my life at the time.

who wants to have intercourse in the sown fields to increase the harvest

[metanoiyed-archive]

“The simplest sorcery is the mechanical performance of one physical action in order to produce another: tying a knot in a cord and placing it under a bed to cause impotence; performing sexual intercourse in a sown field in order to increase the harvest; thrusting pins into an image in order to cause pain or injury.”

A History of Witchcraft: Sorcerers, Heretics, Pagans by Prof. Jeffrey B. Russell

ok,,, like you couldve just said u let your racist opinions decide how you ban people @ archives

full disclosure yeah i have argued or “antagonized”people - who were bigots, usually lmfao - and the “dm” with “multiple staff members” was one of your staff members who was literally RACIST so i really dont know what youre proving here! i was friends with most of you - until yall banded together behind your admin who wont take responsibility and unadded me and blocked me, so clearly we see who chose sides here. like getting mad and holding a grudge bc of a miscommunication we had that you refused to take accountability for during a very racial discussion (and still have not)… and targeting me when i make small mistakes socially because i didnt talk unopinionatedly enough for you and Looking for a reason to ban me because youre mad about it all… yikes Europeans are just fucking like this huh

like i get it you think youre SO perfect and Leftist that you cant be racist or do racist things - regardless of if it ended up being a miscommunication - their response was SO FUCKING DEFENSIVE at even the IDEA of having done smth to hurt someone racially. and still never took accountability just kept blaming me for feeling upset

this is the last ill say about this but if yall escalate it ill post receipts of your racist ass trainee and see how that goes. everyone hates when i open my mouth but forgets the things I DONT fucking say out of courtesy when i have a RIGHT to post them and really an obligation bc this bitch SALIVATES (fetishizes, coming from a whitey who cant respect actual indigenous people) over “european” indigenous cultures but cant for the life of her take actual responsibility when talking and interacting w actual native people across the sea.
