Consuela named his book "Neoliberal Feudalism" because he thinks feudalism is

bad. However, in his book Philosophy and Civilization in the Middle Ages, Maurice DeWulf writes that "the feudal sentiment par excellence ... is the sentiment of the value and dignity of the individual man. The feudal man lived as a free man; he was master in his own house; he sought his end in himself; he was —and this is a scholastic expression,—propter seipsum existens: all feudal obligations were founded upon respect for personality and the given word."
Why the FUCK does Consuela have a whole Substack devoted to complaining about this? Is "he" a woman? I can understand why bitchy menstruating women would be unhappy about men owning everything.

neoliberalism is the ideology and system of market liberalization, i.e. free trade, deregulation, privatization, and the belief that competitive markets maximize efficiency and freedom. Its promise is universal access through market mechanisms.
neoliberal feudalism is the historical mutation of that project once its promises collapse. Markets no longer serve open competition; instead, privatized monopolies, financial platforms, and techno-bureaucratic fiefdoms emerge. Access is gated, rent is extracted, and “freedom” is replaced with dependency on opaque lords (banks, platforms, states).
TLDR you are retarded

I thought about that. As an analogy I came up with the phrase "Neoliberal Christmas," since I think we all understand Christmas to have positive connotations.
The thing is, if I'm writing about long bitchy rant about "neoliberal Christmas," at some point I'm going to say "wouldn't it be great if we could just celebrate Christmas without the neoliberalism?
There's nothing like that on Neoliberal Feudalism. Nowhere does Consuela say "the Feudal era was a time of unbridled individuality, when no one felt constrained by the state or bullied into consensus beliefs." Nor does Consuela talk about what made feudalism work: the uprightness of men, who through reputation alone secured the favor of other men. What's happening today that's even analogous to that? What does it mean to have a neoliberal "honor code?" He never explains.
Instead it looks like Consuela is one of those mush-brained troglodytes who associates feudalism with slavery, i.e. he's a fucking Marxist

evola was boring - i couldn't get through "ride the tiger"
nietzsche was incredibly insightful regarding the transvaluation of values from master to slave morality, but i don't really agree with his response to philosophical pessimism
jung would be the best argument you could make here along this line of attack

I don't think Consuela has ever actually read a book.

There is Neuroscience supporting Nietzsche's idea of an Apollonian and Dionysian spirit in Art
Theres a division in your senses - taste, touch and smell evolved first whereas sight and hearing came later
Taste and smell show up in the very oldest lifeforms - they touch, absorb, sniff, eat and lick particles of matter and use chemistry to "sense" what they are
These all touch the material world directly... yes, smell is pieces of matter touching your nose
Your eyes and ears don't deal with matter, they deal with energy - they never touch the material world
They evolved later as lifeforms got complex enough to grow small lines of cells to detect heat, then light, then brightness, then movement, and then colours
The older senses are more dominant in animals
Think of Dogs hunched over smelling the floor and the air and licking everything with their big tongues
The neuroscience shows that these wire directly into our limbic systems - which is why touch is so emotional and smells evoke deep memories
Human's are extremely Apollonian
We stand upright, our visual cortex is enormous, we look far off into the distance, and we use mouth noise to send advanced information through sound waves
Mankind's most Apollonian arts all stimulate our "higher senses" and can be enjoyed from a distance:
- looking at a painting
- high sculpture
- reading
- classical music
Our most Dionysian arts are also our most experience based and require touch:
- dancing
- experience of going to a rock concert
- food, taste, experience of flavour
- ritual especially religious, sexual experience
Apollonian arts are more intellectual, but a little frigid - beautiful sounds and sights stimulates your brain with pleasant endorphins and mental awe
Dionysian arts are more messy, but thrilling - felt experiences stimulate your brain with big memorable emotions and nervous excitement
Observation
Liberals offer sloppy but fun Dionysian experiences:
- Sex
- Concerts
- Dance clubs
- "diverse flavours, resturants"
Conservatives offer rich but frigid Apollonian art:
- Posts sculptures of power
- Love ancient architecture
- Classical music
- "Read old books"

Consuela is nothing if not egotistic:
"It was Catholicism and the spirit of feudalism that preserved men from the dangers inherent in the immense individualism of the time. With this powerful and penetrating coördinating force men were safe to go about as far as they liked in the line of individuality, whereas today, for example, the unifying force of a common and vital religion being absent and nothing having been offered to take its place, the result of a similar tendency is egotism and anarchy."

dude literally ever poaster agrees with that to some degree, as i said i also did right off the bat. the issue ive always had is about the *specific* mechanics on how it works.
theres a big gap between elites are fucking us and monetary policy is one of their tools (everyone here would agree) and what you think (0% agree).
the reason im softening is because of some of the *specific* actors and *specific* things that are hidden even from lawyers thst keep all sorts of nasty shit confidential.

sure, the fractional reserve banking system fundamentally requires the existence of central banks to bail them out of inevitable bank runs, which are then paid for by the public in the form of debt and inflation - this system is really sick, but it basic setup isn't debatable.
Where my view goes further is in arguing that central banks aren’t simply ‘public utilities’ but are in fact privately owned at the deepest level, with structures deliberately obscured. That ownership is what makes the whole thing not just parasitic but intergenerational and supranational, something operating above states and even above the international organizations that coordinate policy.
It’s a difficult step to take because the mechanics are hidden by design. But as you rise and encounter more of the intentional concealment, hopefully you may start to glimpse pieces of the deeper structure...

Jesus, look at what feudalism led to:
"In the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, however, the balance is justly preserved, though it was but an unstable equilibrium, and therefore during this time we find the widest diversity of speculation and freedom of thought which continue unhampered for more than a hundred years. The mystical school of the Abbey of St. Victor in Paris follows one line (perhaps the most nearly right of all though it was submerged by the intellectual force and vivacity of the Scholastics) with Hugh of St. Victor as its greatest exponent. The Franciscans and Dominicans each possessed great schools of philosophy and dogmatic theology, and in addition there were a dozen individual line of speculation, each vitalized by some one personality, daring, original, enthusiastic. This prodigious mental and spiritual activity was largely fostered by the schools, colleges and universities that had suddenly appeared all over Europe. Never was such activity along educational lines. Almost every cathedral had its school, and many of the abbeys as well, as for example, in France alone, Cluny, Citeaux and Bec, St. Martin of Tours, Laon, Chartres, Rheims and Paris. To these schools students poured in from all over the world in numbers mounting to many thousands for such as Paris for example, and the mutual rivalries were intense and sometimes disorderly. Groups of students would choose their own masters and follow them from place to place, even subjecting them to discipline if in their opinion they did not live up to the intellectual mark they had set as their standard. As there was not only one religion and one social system, but one universal language as well, this gathering from all the four quarters of Europe was perfectly possible, and had much to do with the maintenance of that unity which marked society for three centuries."
