In Defense of The Nation State and Against Feudalism (A study in Rosicrucian Fire starters)
For some reason, some people floating around the alternative media circuit are beginning to think that a world run by hereditary princes, feudalism and a revival of new crusader knighthoods is a great idea.
Many of those people have become persuaded to think like Tony Blair (Knight of the Order of the Garter) or Henry Kissinger (Knight of the Order of St Michael and St George) that this new promised age requires the destruction of the sovereign nation state and even a cleansing period of total purgative violence.
In this action packed episode of Rogue News, V and I took aim at these beliefs by introducing the real horrors of medieval Europe, feudalism and princely kingdoms.
We do this by exploring the Rosicrucian manipulation of the 30 Years War, the Gnostic-Templar ritual manipulation of the Crusades and later 100 Years War and even the English and later French Civil Wars of 1640-49 and 1789-1794.
The application of these lessons to today’s world (including a defense of the Peace of Westphalia which established the foundations of the Modern Nation State) is driven home in the final section of this episode of Rogue News. Click below to watch the full show…

A lot of my friends have just come to accept that princes and princesses are cool so long as I get to save them. I do not believe that neuroticism and post literacy will keep the lights on and the water running, however.
Brilliant breakdown of how the Crusades got weaponized by elite power structures. The Gnostic-Templar angle is sometihng most people completely miss when they romanticize knightly orders. What's wild is seeing this same pattern today with folks who dunno the actual hisorical cost of feudal systems. The Peace of Westphalia framework might be flawed but it's way better than hereditary rule by people who inherited titles instead of earning legitimacy.
