The aim is not to be reactionary, nor “revolutionary”, in the standard sense of the overthrowing of government. The aim, if ever there were a singular one, is to develop an ethos and spirit which will stand the test of time (and human incompetence). I am under the impression that these are, indeed, the end times, and there is a need for some bastion of human excellence to survive the coming judgment (“Lif and Lifthrasir”).
The principles, then, are conglomeration and solidification: the bringing together of all individuals of sufficient vision, fervour, and intelligence; the subsequent ordering of these individuals into groups reflecting their skills, merits, and aptitude; the focusing of these groups on goals relative to their principles, all enabling the end goal of Hessian self-sufficiency.
A culture need not necessarily have a host people/State, but it is easier to abide by the dictum of a culture within a State centred on the principles of that culture. It may become necessary (it is already a good idea) to form a Hessian State, recognised as autonomous or not, within land suitable to our purposes (likely Alaska, Canada, or Siberia). Primarily, I envision a tribal social structure, devolved “government”, and authority based more on ability than precedent (though ability, of course, is based quite a bit on precedent). Technology willl be used and advanced, though only for practical ends. “Frivolity” or “whimsy” of the modern kind must be curtailed within immediate generations. Much of life will be devoted to individual and familial survival, the pursuit of understanding, and, depending upon one’s position in the society, teaching, administration of a minor sort (given general self-government), and, in all likelihood, war. I am unsure as to the position (or even the necessity) of currency, though is will likely come to be practical after solidification. There shall be no money-lending, as this is a mark of a materialistic society.
There’s little point in deciding upon the precise details at the outset – these are likely to be sorted out by following general principles with which we are all acquainted. Essentially, the ideal of Vir must be followed (irrespective of gender!), to the utmost. Success in this endeavour shall ensure the recognition of Hessian spirit and culture as distinct and powerful in their own rights. Our separation from the modern West shall further assure eventual sovereignty, hopefully before, but certainly during the collapse of this current human world.
