I don't mean to say they're antinatalists. My point is that there are some resentful, pessimistic misanthropes out there. Some turn to "Efilism," others to Trumpian conspiracy theories, and others to Jordan Peterson's evolutionary psychology. In each case, I think, that subversive, revolutionary energy is being badly wasted.

I just wish there were a more honourable group of philosophical artists and neoshamanic heroes to join. But politics and economics seem to interfere with any attempt to form a largescale mission of social reform. I suppose charities might come closest to what I'm saying. Is there a charity for countercultural thinkers and artists?
