that kind of stuff anymore, unless they have nothing to lose. If you have nothing to lose, you can indulge in negative thoughts whenever you want. When someone is accused of having
problematic opinions, how many times is it simply that they
are giving out bad vibes?
Indulging in negative thoughts is akin to stopping the
machine, and anyone who stops the machine must be cut off.
Leftists seeks to weed out anything that is negative or difficult as a political duty. They ban words, phrases, and books because they are negative – I mean fascist, I mean homophobic. Bad
vibes are bad vibes are bad vibes.

Growing up in the occult scene, it seemed like everyone was
some type of social activist. I was talking to people who outright admitted that they believed in nothing, while simultaneously
bragging about the social causes that they supported. I should have seen the inherent contradiction right then and there.
“Belief is a tool that can be used to change reality. There is no right and wrong. Everything is flexible.”
Fol owed by:
“It’s real y important that we stop oppression against trans
people. The way that the trans community is treated is wrong.
We cannot stand for it.”
Wait a minute here. If none of these people believed in
anything, why were they so into social activism? Didn’t they just want to get a leg up in their community? It was all about moving up the food chain, and the more negative somebody was, the
sooner they were considered to be expressing improper views.
After al , if you express unpopular views in a positive way
then nobody seems to mind. It’s about emotions and tonality
here. You just need to make your views seem cheery, and as
long as you don’t upset anyone, everything is fine. It’s a game of pleasing the greatest number of people, and anything that you say and do must reflect your desire to make others feel good.
Leftism is rooted in new age philosophy. These people
have decided that we are “manifesting negative energy” by
expressing unpopular opinions. They don’t real y care what our opinions are in the first place, as they are moral relativists who have no true beliefs. They are obsessed with a desire to make everything around them negativity-free.
You express positive energy and you are a nice liberal. You
express negative energy and you are a scary conservative. You must express the proper views with the proper energy, because anything else would stop progress in its tracks.

virtue signaling, cruelty
signaling, & true evil
I’M SURE THAT YOU’VE heard of virtue signaling
by now, unless you’ve been hiding under one of
those rocks in which you only interact with fellow
virtue signalers. The term “virtue signaling” is used
to describe the act of signaling your more-holy-than-thou
beliefs and social causes. Here are a few examples of virtue
signaling:
• “I don’t eat meat because I don’t support the animal
holocaust.”
• “I don’t watch television because I don’t support evil
corporations controlling the world.”
Virtue signaling, at its core, is a faux-humanitarian competition to see who can be the most pure, positive, and p(r)etty. We all find virtue signaling to be annoying, but you know what is even more ridiculous? A phenomena that I have coined as thus:
Cruelty signaling.
“Look at what a horrible person I am. Admire me for being
an immoral asshole.”
Cruelty signaling is new and exciting, unless you’ve spent
81
t h e n ew a rt r i g h t
more than a week in the goth-industrial scene. Cruelty
signaling is edgy, unless you’ve taken a basic course in
economics or political science. Cruelty signaling is virtue
signaling for contrarians who still think that the government cares about their naughty thoughts. To the rest of us, cruelty signaling is infantile and boring. The “good guys” couldn’t walk in our shoes for a day, but we don’t need to broadcast how evil we are to the entire world. The dark triad should stay where it belongs: away from the rest of society in order to better perfect itself.
When you attack others for virtue signaling, yet broadcast
signals that are meant to prove how utterly immoral you are,
you are only a virtue signaler with a skull tattoo. You can earn a weird type of social status akin to winning a prison fight, but you aren’t even in prison, bitch. There is no race to the bottom that is worth participating in, unless you are already at the bottom.
“You can have it al . My empire of dirt.”
Trent Reznor was sick of cruelty signaling, as evidenced
by the lyrics in his early musical career. He realized that his
“empire of dirt” was as utterly empty as the mundane world
that he was rebelling against. Basical y, evil is fun until people are trying too hard to be evil. Suddenly you want to join a
church just to get away from these people. You get sick of every last social engineer bragging to you about their stupid army.
If you are truly evil, you don’t share it with the world. The worst (or best, depending on where you are standing) people
do not share their cruelty with wider society. They are not
the trol s on 4chan or the assholes on Twitter. They are the
utterly assimilated social actors who are publicly subscribing to the modern views that get them the most likes. They are
the virtue signalers who do not appear to be virtue signaling.
82
r ac h e l h ay w i r e
They are, as I have put it, the Patrick Bateman’s pretending to be Mother Theresa’s. They will never broadcast their cruelty to you, because that would blow their cover. After al , the cruelest thing you can be is a faux-humanist. There is nothing more
dark and evil than being a capable vil ain who pretends to be a hopeless Disney princess.
Being the only Sith Lord in a room can be alienating, but
when people are flaunting their Sith Lord credentials you kind of just want to punch them out. Their broadcasted lack of
morality is neither edgy or groundbreaking. To signal cruelty is to display yourself as desperate to fit in with the bad guys. It is to virtue signal for the other team. It is to out yourself as prey to the truly evil, and there is nothing cruel or virtuous about that.

an open letter to the underworld
LET’S JUST BE HONEST here. I think it’s time we
had a heart to heart. There is so much stigma against
emotion now, and I’m not willing to go along with
it. There real y aren’t that many of us left, and we’ve
all been hating on each other since the beginning of time.
Underground cult leaders and self hating gods with nobody to
talk to, cursed with a knowledge that separates us from the rest of the world. Yet we rip each other apart, time and time again, in an endless battle among those of us who have opened up
this forbidden box of knowledge.
They say that there can be only one, but right now we are
drowning in this utter and complete depravity. I don’t want to be the worst person in room, manipulating people beneath me
while pretending to sympathize with their petty struggles. I
don’t want to go after anyone like me who comes along, simply because I wish to be the only one. I don’t want to slay my own kind so I can rule over the stupid humans. I don’t want to
be a part of this war for even another second. Perhaps
it will continue for eternity, but I still believe that we should fight it.

This may sound like-total y-gay to you, but whatever, you
know? I want to be in a room full of people who know what
this is like, and I don’t want to compete to see who can be
the biggest asshole. Why does it seem like intense people are doomed to hate each other? To compete for the pawns. To hunt
down anyone who shares this knowledge. To slay our own,
all to eliminate the parts of ourselves that we dislike. To hide and obscure archaic knowledge that isn’t even that difficult to obtain anymore.
Has something sacred been violated? Have the tricks of the
masters been passed down to the scene kids? Have the tricks
of the scene kids been passed down to the new generation of
startup activists? Have the tricks of the startup activists been passed down to the trendy journalists? Things decay and things degrade and this is humanity. Yet must we real y round each
other up like this?
I’m holding up a giant mirror to the underworld, and
I’m here to say that you aren’t my enemy. You’re just like me, and we are only fighting amongst ourselves. We are basical y
reflections of one another. I’m sorry that you see those bad
parts of yourself in me, but it’s not my problem anymore.
Batman killed his own. Professor X did the same. Yet somehow
these were the heroes, and anyone who remained true to their
tribe was cast off as a vil ain.
I’ve been guilty too. I’ve seen myself in others who I’ve
attacked. I’ve resented them for knowing the same things that I did. I’ve resented them for putting on their human masks. I’ve resented them for pandering to the idiots, yet I now face this from the other end. There is always going to be someone who
views you like you view someone else. There is always going to be someone above you and someone below you.
85
t h e n ew a rt r i g h t
We need to remember that we are trapped in hell
together. I find no value in competing for pawns as material
possessions. I don’t want to own a bunch of idiots who can’t
think for themselves. I don’t want to be known for my legion of sycophants. No, I want to be known for my knowledge and for
my accomplishments. I want to exist here, in this underworld
we inhabit, without worrying about others like me wishing to
plot my demise. In the end, we are the same.
I know you may disagree with this letter I’ve written to you, but I want my message to be received throughout the depths
of this forbidden space. Sometimes you’ve just gotta come out and say it, you know? I’m done with this underworld drama. I
will not continue to fight my own.

addendum
toward a dark bohemia
“Exterminate all rational thought.” -Wil iam S. Burroughs
“You must create your life, as you‘d create a work of art. It‘s necessary that the life of an intel ectual be artwork with him as the subject. True superiority is all here. At all costs, you must preserve liberty, to the point of intoxication.” - D‘Annunzio
89! THE SOUND OF REASON is a
deafening blow. It is the sound of
a watered-down enlightenment
philosophy. The sound of reason is the sound of the center
asserting its temporary domination, yet is only at the extremes that a real metaphysical dialogue can occur. Reason is a prison for the plastic whores who are terrified of your aura. Reason peddlers wish to ship off the gods to the factory. Reason is the opiate of the masses, yet somehow it remains a preferred tool of control among the dying elite. Reason is a materialist prison for the weak and uninspired.
Bohemia has been ravaged by the scholars of the
reasonmarketplace, who water down the most passionate
89
t h e n ew a rt r i g h t
aspects of the Faustian/Promethean resurrection we have only
begun to explore.
It is not Right against Left or Good against Evil. It is Us
against Them. We breathe the fire of a new metapolitical
current as the reason peddlers moan about conspiracy
theorists in trailer parks. They wish to put out the fire in
order to sedate the energy of universe itself. These are
utilitarian peasants without a soul to explore, yet some of
them are billionaires. In their desperate attempt to save
the world from its original essence, they defile natural law
with their global catfights.
The darkest aspects of Bohemia are now considered
to be outright fascism, yet it is the New Art Right that
must construct a greater society in the ashes of this
transvaluation. Corpses of a dead era feeding on each
other like maggots in a parking lot; waiting to get the next
space. The corpse picks the peddlers of the hottest idea
trends at midnight. Just another initiative for the board. Is is rational enough?
Bohemia as an escape fantasy or Bohemia as a utopian
ideal, one stops to think about the possibilities of an
empire of the mind. A insurrectionary exploration of that
which could be; Dark Bohemia is an occult Temporary
Autonomous Zone. The New Art Right creates a spiritual
revolt of art, music, philosophy, literature, theatre, film,
poetry, and live performances. This is Dark Bohemia at
work, and the purge is now being reversed. 89!
To devise a Dark Bohemia one must first remove the
lettering of the utilitarian reason factory. It may be difficult 90
r ac h e l h ay w i r e
not to speak in their factory language, but eventual y you
take off your rational mask and begin viewing yourself as a
living work of art.
From the beginning, the ideal of Bohemia was a fight
against the reason peddlers.
Those who hide in the corners of the thrones are now
getting a taste of the outer realms. They seek a new hell
to play inside, in which one is given a license to explore
their nightmares though creative and irrational means. A
reactionary decadence of both pleasure and hatred; the
union of egoists create a monarchy of the spiritual realm.
The Kali Yuga becomes self aware in a quest to discover the
meaning of the universe in a state of the purge reversing.
The gods rise from the margins and join each other in
this occult realm as a new era greats those who are willing
to enter Dark Bohemia without fear. The Age of Aquarius
is (reverse) culture jamming with a stronger energy, and
Dark Bohemia beautiful y mirrors this revolution in
ecstasy and wonder. The vikings of the mind and spirit
confront one another in a union so extreme that the 99%
can no longer survive.
The New Art Right is the vanguard through which
Dark Bohemia is able to form. The aristocratic minority
take its places in the towers once again. Dark Bohemia
is the kingdom we create for ourselves in this dulled
and domesticated multiplex known as the progressive
enlightenment. Dark Bohemia is what happens when the
psychic imperium takes back the long night.
