I think possible. We only need more will power and focus.

>>1851215
Committing ritual suicide is pretty much the apogee of physical and intellectual state though.

Yukio Mishima.

Also, I just meet this author, Jack Donovan. He write a book about masculinity and what it means to be a mean, he works around the idea of new barbarism. Anyone has knew him before?

And phenomenal willpower and focus emerge from phenomenal conviction and devotion. The ego is powerful but not powerful enough to carry one to his maximum potential, for its too preoccupied with petty things, pleasure, status... You will only reach your full potential by finding a purpose that transcends petty concerns like self preservation.

Towards the creation of more virile, muscular tops.

Donovan is mentally ill and people like Richard Spencer are idiots for associating with him. His understanding of masculinity is basically gay ISIS (ISIS being drugged up maniacs who rape everything). Mishima was also mentally ill, but at least he was a gifted writer.
