Claymen have always existed and have always been the majority, but the difference in today's mirrored world is that the masses live as simulated royals and aristocrats. Instead of claymen of the past busying themselves with farming, fishing, commerce, religion, they busy themselves with politics, ideology and short term fashionable movements and trends, just like the few elites of the past had the privilege of.

Fuelled by their genuine empty lives devoid of risk and real meaning. There's a well known phenomena of the bourgeoisie to larp as poor and struggling people, they sparked the early socialist revolutions in France during the french revolution, on the other side you had the "Hameau de la Reine" by Marie Antoinette.

I believe in our modern lives we also struggle with this emptiness of meaning, and we see these same pattern emerge in a large unstoppable scale, where the delusions of the past elites is now the norm for every clay man and woman. It's a symptom of emptiness and meaninglessness and is extremely self-destructive.

The industrial revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

The aristocrats of the old and the modern mass claymen of today share so many virtues: Jumping on retarded trends in fashion. Obsession with appearances and status. Extravagant consumption and waste. Gets involved in politics. Extreme virtue signalling. Is extremely narrow minded and self-centered.

Think they know everything (smug) and look down upon the uneducated but at the same time: Feels like they are the saviour and a spokesperson of the poor. Fragility and decadence.

I feel the general indifference I perceive in people as a result of their connections to the real world decreasing. Even a simple poor and uneducated farmer/peasant could rise up and realize the state he is in. The connection to family, religion, individual culture, and the world outside of the metropolis are all rapidly eroding and those who attempt to defend what is being lost are mocked & ignored.

This is shown as well in the reluctance on both sides to even advocate for the (idea) of violent means, as if any lasting revolution has used non-violence and worked. Most claymen refuse to believe that we are in such a state of spiritual warfare.

The victors rot in perfect comfort. To add to @fauux, in previous cycles of history, decadence overtook the aristocratic and disconnected them from reality, hedonism became 'art' and they blindly decayed (mold era). This is the first time in history where the class of elites has grown so large it has become disconnected from itself, a fracture into subclasses, as it were.

We may be deeply tamed, but we are still an aristocracy by warped definition. A king of old would envy our luxuries. We work abstractly, our creations have little to do with the Earth we stand on. Because of this, the decay is, and shall continue to be, widespread. There is a fractalline mockery of castes within this, however, with self-indulgent rot at each level. One man controls another, and so on…

As to say, there is no longer a single class of decadent decayers, but a crude form of hierarchy for every group.

Often being clay is about cowardice, risking stagnation for invulnerability to mold. One can live a great life without ‘meaning,’ but one cannot live well without ‘purpose.’ I am here because one day I woke up, I will continue to be here because I’d like to see what happens next.

I keep reading your articles and thinking "this guy just doesn't miss". Great Terry Davis quote by the way.

reminder for the americans that labour day is called may day or international workers' day in the rest of the world and generally takes place on may 1. this holiday was deliberately altered in the us (the historical claim is time of ratification, but people had been autonomously celebrating it on may 1 prior to then) as it celebrates when socialists fought for the 8-hour work day under the mantra:

"8 hours work, 8 hours rest, 8 hours sleep." While it can be acknowledged in the modern day that 8 hours is still way too long, in the historical context (as explained by Karl Marx in Capital, Volume 1, Chapter 10) they'd been working 12 h/d, 6 d/w, plus 10h on sunday, and the 10 Hours Resolution had failed due to the bourgeoisie finding loopholes in the law despite multiple revisions
