I don't want to associate with Neofolk anymore, because of the right wing extremism. But I still like the style and some of the ideological elements of it.
Besides Neofolk, which terms could be used to describe this aesthetic?
>imitating some weird instagram aesthetic, wearing lots of make-up and doing Wicca because it seems cool, not understanding it is a largely made up thing from the 20th century
No.
>rejecting the christian faith, observing some pagan traditions because it is fun and traditions are nice while feeling an emotional connection to european history and culture, wearing natural fabrics and having fun with second hand and diy projects, having natural hair, little to no make up, trying to cultivate a healthy body and mind, rejecting the worst aspects of modernity while not falling into the intellectual trap of becoming some right wing extremist
Yes.
Siddhartha oh no no no hahahaha
How is Siddhartha related to this shit? Is it like a German catcher in the rye? The whole point was pro-environmentalism somewhat and a lot of accepting of reality and being moderate; neither ascetic or materialist, but now it's become some basic altbitch bible?
I've read it, enjoyed it but it was nothing more than a highschool book.
There weren't any profound ideas other than: *hits blunt* jus be cool mayne
These clothes I got from the city center/Amazon on discount I'll now use to LARP as a survivalist.
There's people who go into the wild and survive on nothing but their own resourcefullness. It's silly to eminate an idea without committing. For instance, Buddhism requires a lot more than people are willing to give. For one, enlightenment is limited to aristocratic men. That is to say Brahmin and their cultural equivalent. So, Junkers. In Europe, the peasant revolts made this unattainable for many with enough wealth to think themselves capable.
