The King in Orange: The Magical and Occult Roots of Political Power by John Michael Greer
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.9 MB
Overview: Magic and politics seem like unlikely bedfellows, but in The King in Orange, author John Michael Greer goes beyond superficial memes and extreme partisanship to reveal the unmentionable realities that spawned the unexpected presidential victory of an elderly real-estate mogul turned reality-TV star and which continue to drive the deepening divide that is now the defining characteristic of American society.
Greer convincingly shows how two competing schools of magic were led to contend for the presidency in 2016 and details the magical war that took place behind the scenes of the campaign. Through the influence of a number of occult forces from Julius Evola to chaos magicians, as well as the cult of positive thinking, Greer shows that the main contenders in this magical war were the status quo magical state, as defined by the late scholar Ioan Couliano, which has repurposed the “manipulative magic” techniques of the Renaissance magi into the subliminal techniques of modern advertising, and an older, deeper, and less reasonable form of magic—the “magic of the excluded”—which was employed by chaos magicians and alt-right internet wizards whose desires coalesced in the form of a frog avatar that led the assault against the world we knew.
