What will separate the boys from the men? The toxic masculine from the divine masculine? Nice-guy chauvinism is the worst chauvinism because nice guys don’t even believe they need to give you anything in exchange for putting up with their emotional bullshit. They are, as I’ve argued for years, melancholic—the lost object is absorbed into the ego-relation (In 2011, Zizek said this about melancholia: “Don’t be afraid to want what you desire.”)

For those that don’t understand and continually disparage the binary: There is a profound difference between the binary and polarity. Polarity creates incoherence, paralysis, and self-fracturing (the true self/higher self is overtaken by the splitting fears and destructive noise of the ego). Fracturing thought from feeling, word from deed, mind from body, self from God. The binary is a cosmic pairing of a crystallizing difference that allows one to act in accordance with divine law in order to make distinctions between right and wrong, ethical and unethical, good and evil, instead of endlessly conflating the two, settling for the confusion and ambivalence of the grey zone (or “real life," whatever the fuck that is these days. The same people who have lectured me on what real life is are the same ones who think our world is “normal”); erasing and blurring the sharp distinctions that are so necessary for Clarity, Truth, Love, and Honor (honor of self and honor of other).

“Faith is the evidence of things hoped for and the promise of things unseen.” (Hebrews 11:1).
