The Return Of The Repressed.

Today we jump right into it. We will follow the grave robbing life of the 19th century's most famous phrenologist, Gustaf "the skull measurer" Retzius. A historical paparazzi trip from Kalevala's Finland to an Egypt of stolen mummies and chloroform scamming on Turtle Island.

Sebbe helps me understand early bourgeois paedophile networks, workhouses, orphanages and summer camps during the last decades before the invention of the automobile. We begin mapping the Eugenics Internationale by looking at member lists of the first anthropological  societies.

I discover a collection of old ghost stories which explains why the Retzius home was called the Ghost Castle.  Dark tales about Swedenborgian pirates and Dutch slave traders, the coincidence of a hidden crypt of anonymous skeletons in the garden of the foremost bone collector.

Long before there was a CIA or even an OSS, an MI6 or the SSB, modern intelligence began forming among the far-flung outposts of the Great Game between the British n Russian empires. Among Shahs, Kalifs, Sheiks and a new form of recruited intellectuals of the German universities.

Today we tell you how a group of Swedish explorers became the teenage idols of Hitler, Göring, Himmler and Rosenberg. How in the late 19th they coined the term Geopolitics, fused together Vitalism (Lebensphilosophie) and Vital Space (Lebensraum) for the sake of the Aryan myth.

How they robbed graves for skulls from Turtle Island in the west to Lhasa and Edo in the east. We will see how all the subspecies of bourgeois irrationalism i.e US pragmatism, UK utilitarianism and continental positivism synthesised in a fascist vehicle of imperialism.

This a behemoth episode for the real heads. Packed with the typical macabre mood setting intro which throws Nietzsche under the bus like never before. Travel journals, letters and dark comedy about some of the most despicable people the world of spooks has ever called their own.

Me and Sebbe are still trying to patch together a transition episode from the 19th century which we have now been discussing for more than a month as well as the more contemporary mess that is to come during the inter-war period of the building up of the Swedish State Institute for Racial Biology.
The transition in question involves the imperialist philosophy of irrationalism and vitalism, represented above all others by Nietzsche, as the Bourgeoisie, after the 71 Paris commune, finds itself being utterly incapable of intellectually dealing with the new question of the organised proletariat and opt out for a more barbaric and primitive interpretation of the Aryan Myth.
It also sees the birth of Nordism and the pop-literary production of teenage idols for Hitler, Himmler and Rosenberg during their youth in the form of Scandinavian explorers.
Sebbe is reading old travel journals of these proud grave robbers and I'm going through blond and blue eyed reason-for-sterilisation-journals of the 30s, If all goes well we will release this episode next weekend.
In the meantime please make due with this very entertaining conversation I had with Fergal of the Kingless Generation Podcast last year, which he has been kind enough to allow me to post here as well. Please check out his podcast it is an absolute gem for those real heads interested in the deep history of class struggle and paleo-parapolitics.

[Episode Description]
Marcus’ travels around China and Europe, Daoist geomancy and natural foods, archaeobotany, the artefact versus the container, peoples’ archaeology and anti-malarial drugs during the Cultural Revolution, the immunology of smoking mugwort on different continents, ergot bacteria and sacred exstatic experiences, iron as a democratic metal, destruction of surplus as value producing spectacle, Jim Jones as stage magician, Hegel and ritual cannibalism, the word “apophatic”, the pedastal and the figurine, Thomas Aquinas’ friends boiling the meat off his bones, the whip inside the mind, the (di)vision of labor, Sino-Japanese comparisons, restoration versus acceptance in curatorship, insides and outsides of Kyoto and the rule by retired soveregns, Buddhist clerks and bean counters, Amino Yoshihiko: peasants are more than just farmers, Japanese castles are all fake, Latin poetry under Mussolini, the division of labor as the thing that the most successful Indigenous societies kept at bay, Adam’s calendar in Mpumalanga 

Aryans don't really exist, they are arguably less real than Aliens and Big-foot. We have no names of any Indo-European, they have left behind no texts, and no archaeological artefacts can definitely be traced to them. Yet most of you probably think this statement is hysteric.

How so? Who introduced this notion? Well starting of small, the French Revolution, and the birth of socialism, was betrayed, not as most bourgeois historians would tell you by a zealous atheism or plebeian blood-thirst. But by a reactionary movement who praised ethnic origins.

For more than two hundred years after the storming of the Bastille, recruited intellectuals have searched in vain for these lost people. Their descendants today teach about ascended masters to the most gone a far, and those more within the general grind are told about charisma. 

At the phallic heart of their desires lies a castration anxiety. Be it testicle sunbathing  morons looking to make a buck of the desperation of the youth on social media or  the cognac drinking editors of Mankind Quarterly who gave us the Bell Curve. All of them are worried sick.

Worried sick that the western legacy is nothing but a cultural bi-product of a Jewish tradition. Which is why you never hear of Jesus, the Jew of Nazareth or that the early Christians were a Semitic cult. So instead they have been reaching, reaching far and wide.

We want to tell you about this reaching, since it concerns the fetishization of our own people, those of the Nord, relativity speaking an insignificant number of people who are in numbers less than the inhabitants of  New York, certainly less than the population of Chongqing.

So come with us again as we tell you how we were made to believe in made up people like the "Scythians", the barbarians of 80s Kurgan blockbusters. And how the proud working people of India were ravaged to die on the plantations of the Brits while they took their ancient texts.

What if I told  you that there exists a secret society dating back to Charlemagne, first Holy Roman Emperor. Advisers, almanacists and court painters possessing a scientia which ever since has governed PR, a  hermeneutics, Pythagorean mysticism and Kabbalah numerology mishmash.

They taught Louis III how to entertain the people with tales of Vikings, which still run on Bernays’s Netflix. They stood on the receiving end of the crusade's plundering of the Islamicate libraries which stockpiled their bookshelves with far away, long gone Byzantine loot.

If you're thinking here is Marcus with another far-out theory from his isolation in the Alps, then you're ofc right to do so, but I wonder, do you know that Hegel during his most savage critique dedicated a whole dismantling chapter against this lodge orders claim to knowledge?

Isac Newton rubbed his hands at their robbery, John Dee kept copies of their work,  Ben Franklin even took to writing under a pseudonym which carried the name of one of their most influential Magus. And I'm not talking about the Freemasons, Illuminati or the Rosicrucians.

Did you ever  stop to wonder why paintings of the Baroque Caesars seem to follow you around with their gaze in the "open to the public" castles? Who interpellated the Panoptic vision in the soul of the commoner? Faith and destiny was their ware, just like today's neuroscience.

Brains are still calculated in cm3, IQ is a speed test of that supposed engine, yet the real onto-intentions of that mechanics lies resting in old diaries of the intelligentsia who   mapped the Systema Natura during the industrial espionage of the Age of Exploration.

Come with us now on a journey through time and space, to the world of the greatest trick the White Devil ever pulled.

A season finale is upon us. A lot remains to be said about Lysenko, epigenetics and that original cliffhanger regarding Darwins repressed theory of pangenesis.

Not all has been said about Kruschev and the nuclear-bomb-corn of American Big Ag during the creation of the first truly global market of grain speculation, all has not been said about x-ray Mullers letter to Stalin that kickstarted the purge of the natural sciences or how Huxley got him into the soviet union and how they helped exiling Serebrovsky’s deserter students to take part in radiation sterilisation experiments in Nazi Germany.

Not much has been said about Lysenko's teachers themselves, Michurin and Timiryazev who, though already seniors when the winter palace was stormed, nonetheless gladly supported the communist reorganisation of their scientific fields. 

We have yet to explore the great around-the-world adventures of Vavilov which debunked the biblical idea of a single origin of civilization, have not yet in detail told the story of Himmler's SS-biopiracy operations. During which it was not Vavilovs international Rockefeller “colleague” who defended his seed banks in Leningrad, but Lysenkoites who starved to death on their post to protect the work and legacy of a man whom western historians are telling us they saw as an enemy to be eradicated.

There is a lot left to be talked about dear listener, but to really get there, we will begin today with something which our Marxist-Botanist Allan G. Morton has stated was and is “In fact, after all, the central problem of genetics, the explanation of Ontogeny.” This is a story of genetic fluidity and shaken heredity, the material dialectic critique of DNA-essentialism. 

The roaring 20s finally approached the years of its hangover, the last Brut Nebuchadnezzar popped to the crying ocean of small-savers, Kammerer went to pass and with him the last western lantern on that vast body of water to suggest biological nonconformity went out.

Also in the USSR the situation looked bleak as there too environmental concepts were restricted by fruit fly vials, crawling maggots and droning nuisance was said to reveal all secrets of man and her faith. But a newcomer revived the debates of the 1930s and won his public.

Today we will take a look those debates at length, read the primary transcripts of the last fundamental critique of what would become the Century of the Gene, when we all got registered as fleshy data hosts, we will track the movement of the conspirators that shut the debate down.

As the answer to a century old mystery is proposed, the gates of a hundred new questions are revealed. Follow me on one of the craziest rides through the history of science that I ever recorded.
It is a star studded and celebrity packed episode with all your old favourites, J.P Morgan and Rockefeller and their ario-heroic archaeological expeditions to Central Asia. Bone War contestants like American Museum of Natural History president Henry Fairfield Osborn and his pet snake G.K Noble.
Nazi-Purges at German speaking universities of basically the entire subsequent Manhattan Project, compensated with honorary doctorates handed out by Hitler to the namesake behind the T-Rex and the Velociraptor.
Old discovered letters filled with secrets and David Attenborough narrated assumptions about evolution that have a dark past. 1930s Julian Huxley propaganda films describing shit even the Swastikalers had to initially hush up.

Tying it all together is the adventurous life of Paul Kammerer, a biological rock-star so popular that he could even convince bible belt American workers of his socialist theory of evolution. His days in Moscow and the reasons why some people wanted him gone will with the help of Austrian Investigator Klaus Taschwer finally be revealed for the first time in podcast format and hopefully bring Kammerer's ghost to rest in peace, I know that he would have wanted for you to hear his story.

Paul Kammerer was once the worlds most famous biologist, a poor leftist jew from Austria surrounded by monsters, made it big despite the odds through a new form of popularisation of science.

His audience not consisting exclusively of learned men as was the custom in the first decades of the 20th century, instead, rather, commoners of all walks of life, men and women alike attended his lectures.

But then just as "the eclipse of Darwinism" was declared over by UNESCO's latter head Julian Huxley, radioactive eugenicists all over the world declared him a fraud in the yellow press. The road was now swept clean for a genetic reductionism that did no have to bother about environments.

For more than a century with the help of the worlds largest newspapers and the highest price committees of biology this notion of fraudulence have been the common opinion, and Paul Kammerer was forgotten.

However, very recently thanks to an investigative journalist from Austria, a new picture has been painted which involves scheming New Yorkers and secret societies of the Hapsburg empire with Siegfried bust heads and student faculty groups known as the Swasitkalers.
To a soundtrack of the Neue Deutsche Welle I have tried to translate and reveal this picture for you.

Where does the hatred towards Epigenetics, Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck, The Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics and finally Lysenko come from, where and how did it begin?

Today we will launch an assault of historical revelations against a mystified truism of genetics and heredity which unless you were born before 1950 have always already been the dominant mode of thinking.

We will investigate the earliest Sci-fi and the experimental science of the 1920s as we go looking for the Neo-Darwinists who in their blind appropriation discarded the materialist core of Charlie's teaching and replaced it with a metaphysical alchemical preformationism.

We will go through NKVD files on the mountaineers case, read Evola and his alpine meditations, frighten ourselves with body-less living dog heads, crypts in princely villas of the bourgeoisie quarters of Moscow were people are said to be frozen alive.

We will finally learn how the Rockefellers and its Fruit Fly Mafia made its way in to the USSR and who became their recruited intellectuals, linking up of course with the very heart and centre of underground anti-soviet activity. This and a lot more awaits you on this coming three hour journey. Enjoy!
