Sparta was the epitomy of Warrior culture. A warrior race.

The Mothers of the Warrior Nation

The backbone of this nation was comprised of strong women.There is an account a mother who heard of one of her sons dying in battle and another son escaping with his life and she claimed the former as her child and not the latter. Running from battle was a shameful act and embarrassing for the Spartan Mothers. They would rather their children be killed.

One mother is told all 5 of her sons died in battle, and her response is “I did not ask of my sons. I asked whether Sparta was victorious” When told the battle was won. Her response is “Then I am happy”

Another mother, when sending her son off to war, says to him “Come back with this or on it” as she hands him his shield. Coming without it would be an indication of fleeing from battle. Again the mother would rather her son die than run away from battle to survive.

The mothers, wives, and daughter were the backbone of this warrior nation. Similarly, in animals, the lionness is the one that hunts. their motherly instincts are to defend the wolf pack. The warrior ethos is not just a manifestation of male aggression or the masculine will to dominate. It rests on the will and resolve of the mothers of the nation as well.

King Agis

King Agis of Sparta was shown a catapult that could shoot up to200 yards. Upon seeing it, “Valor is no more.” he cried. He was sad because it seemed to him that honor had been lost in fighting. No longer was it necessary to get up close and personal to fight your enemy. No longer was the danger of taking an enemies life equal to losing your own. No longer was fighting a battle of courage and bravery.

King Agis would probably weep over and over at the inventions of gun powder, bombs, landmines, mustard gas, lasers, missiles, nukes, drones. bioweapons. etc. had he witnessed been alive to witness them

(side note: all of the above information comes from the book, The Warrior Ethos by Steven Pressfield.)

In the West

The Warrior Ethos emphasizes a commitment to serve and protect. And being willing to sacrifice for something other than themselves. It embodies values like courage, honor, loyalty, integrity and selflessness.

In the west, we live in an age of self-preservation, a strong natural instinct we are born with but a contrast to the warrior ethos. In the west, we live for ourselves. Nothing else matters outside of us. The world starts and ends with ourselves. We dont look to benefit society, we look to see how it can benefit us. We want to chase endless pleasure, without any responsiblity, commitment or repercussions. There is no honor, and no courage. Everyone is shameless.

There is no fighting. Having a backbone is looked down upon. Society will beat it out of you if you do. You are only allowed to have an opinion if it aligns with the mainstream narrative.

You must tolerate everything. Passivity is the default. Standing up for what you believe in is wrong. In other words, having courage is DIScouraged. Turning the other cheek is noble…

I would argue…

Turning the other cheek is noble, IF (big if) you have the capacity to fight and be violent. Only then is it honorable.

If you are someone who doesnt have the capacity to fight. you are not the bigger person for not fighting.

Most people today can not fight and they tell themselves they don’t like to so they seem more virtuous. That is just a hard cope for being weak.

If you are raised to tell the teacher anytime you have an issue with a classmate, or file an hr complaint against a coworker you dont like. Or the closest you’ve ever been to physically fighting is exchanging passive aggressive text messages. Then “turning the other cheek,” does not make you a man. You are not more mature, or more noble or more honorable. You are a pussy, and you have been your whole life.

You can tell yourself you did the noble thing. But its just a cope for being a bitch.

I cant stand these niggas.

Sincerely,

T-mane tha mane
