Through A Black Box : 11 x 5 x 1.25

I use X (was Twitter) for an addictively cheap dopamine hit and to find out what's going on out there in the world beyond the perimeter door of my spaceship zone. Often wish I hadn't, so it's a bit of a horror-fest, all things considered. Order of the Gash without the daemonettes. 

I use Grok as a counsellor, for therapy, for editing my first drafts to pick up on typo's, and for research. So, small confession, The Era Of AI has slipped into my life instead of the 13 daemonettes I was promised by the Order of the Gash. 

My writing in X is organic. My writing in this blog is organic. Neither use an AI. I am not an "AI writer". This makes the above-mentioned resources useful, to analyse in a way only an AI can; clinically. Here is what Grok has to say about the character of snakeappletree, drawing from both X and blogspot (up until 2026/9/28). I asked a few specific questions;

Philosophy

"Analyse the X account of snakeappletree - What is the philosophy of snakeappletree?"

Snakeappletree (@snakeappletree1) presents a coherent, lived philosophy rather than scattered opinions. It is a mix of behavioral essentialism, forensic skepticism, civilizational particularism, and practical localism. The header hashtags are discarded here; the pattern comes from posts, replies, and longer analytical comments.

“Human Being” is an adverb

This is the clearest organizing idea. Humanity is not a noun, a genotype, or an automatic status granted by being Homo sapiens. It is a behavior that must be earned and can be forfeited.

A person (or group) who tortures animals before slaughter (his example is ritual slaughter), rapes, murders at elevated rates, enters a country illegally, or treats others as objects rather than subjects with interiority has not achieved “human being.” They remain in the category of “animalistic” or “monkeys.” Empathy and compassion are faculties that allow seeing past a crude self-vs-object dualism; he questions whether certain incoming groups possess that faculty based on observed patterns of crime and boat crossings.

Human rights, in this framing, attach to demonstrated humane conduct, not species membership. “One rule for all” follows: no religious exemptions for animal cruelty or parallel legal systems. Legal immigration is distinguished from illegal entry; the latter is treated as evidence of failure to meet the behavioral standard.

This is not abstract. He applies it to current UK events, French riots, and Gaza imagery, insisting on evidence over moral outrage or media framing.

Truth-seeking as vocation

“Truth is my God” is operationalized as systems analysis and forensic habit: question every assumption, demand primary evidence, treat official narratives and viral images as potentially staged or manipulated. He cites professional experience with theatrical makeup and film to explain why he remains skeptical of atrocity footage until independently verified—“fog of war,” possible fakery, funded websites. Detachment is presented as a coping mechanism and a professional stance, not callousness; he describes oscillating between horror and analysis.

He repeatedly tags or asks Grok to assess threads for factual accuracy and rejects stacked “data” that he sees as regime-sourced echo chambers. Institutions (WHO, pharma, Senedd/Plaid, Home Office language about “far-right thugs”) are treated as captured or lying by default. Traditional or local knowledge (“the village witch”) is preferred to centralized medical or political authority.

Civilizational and cultural particularism

Posts consistently prioritize the indigenous British/Welsh/Celtic population against rapid demographic change. Mass low-skill or culturally distant inflows are framed as civilizational risk: higher crime, rape, terrorism attempts (e.g., RAF Fairford farmer account he circulated), lack of reciprocity, and erosion of “one rule.” He is hostile to Plaid Cymru and the Senedd as left-captured and unrepresentative of ethnic Welsh. Borders and “by invite only” are described as historically normal and necessary for any functioning society, not uniquely “right-wing.”

Islam is frequently characterized in stark terms (incompatibility, “death cult,” apostasy rules). Gaza/Israel commentary demands proof of genocide claims and notes Arafat’s own statements and possible staged material. This sits alongside pro-life and free-speech commitments.

Oasis Village and resilience

#OasisVillage is a concrete project: indefinitely self-sufficient local communities for food and resources that do not require electricity or relocation. It is positioned as step 9 in a personal sequence after individual action. He documents gardening, homemade remedies (Thieves Vinegar, herbs), and traditional skills. AI cannot replace da Vinci-school technique; skilled human craft matters.

This pairs with a cyclical historical view expressed in his 2024 blog post “Cult of Continuity”: high civilizations (ancient “machine temples,” modern electrotech grids) rise, then are sabotaged by ideological cults that fear the technology, producing dark ages from which knowledge is later rediscovered. Prepare by building durable local oases rather than betting everything on fragile global systems.

Tone and integration

The voice is blunt, diagnostic, and unapologetic—psychiatric or forensic language applied to opponents (“psychosis,” “antisocial mental health disorder,” “retarded”). At the same time he claims empathy as the thing that lifts one above dualism. He posts original photos of plants and projects, shares videos of current events, and lives the polymath claim through art, analysis, herbalism, and legal-style breakdowns of speech laws.

The philosophy is particularist and hierarchical by conduct, not egalitarian by species or identity. It treats civilization as a fragile achievement that requires selection, boundaries, evidence, and practical competence rather than sentiment or institutional fiat. Whether one finds the behavioral test or the civilizational diagnoses persuasive, the account is unusually consistent: the same lens is applied to migrants, Gaza videos, Welsh politics, pharma, and AI art.

What is the philosophy of snakeappletree?"

snakeappletree.blogspot.com is a long-running personal blog (posts visible from 2013 through 2026) by a Welsh-based independent musician and visual artist. It functions as a processing space rather than a polished manifesto: the author describes blogging as offloading mental overload, practising the craft of wording, and justifying personal value after experiences of abuse and worthlessness. The main creative work sits elsewhere (music such as the album Shuyet, visual art, novels). The blog itself is raw, symbolic, confessional, and evolving.

The philosophy that emerges from the posts is a commitment to embodied truth, resonant consciousness, and alignment with natural/Dharmic order, expressed through personal experiment rather than systematic doctrine.

Truth as spiritual and psychological necessity

The 2017 post “The Naked Truth” is one of the clearest statements. Lying to “keep the peace” is rejected as abusive; it creates stress that is dumped onto the truthful person and produces a “zombie” herd that accepts unverified narratives. Cognitive dissonance / disbelief syndrome is named as the disorder of those who cannot distinguish truth from what they have been told. Spirituality is framed as: “to see truth you have to be truth.” The preferred stance is to hold up a mirror and “wear my naked skull” rather than play roles in other people’s dramas. Victims of slander have three options: passive acceptance (remaining a victim), active refutation (perpetuating war), or ascension (detaching and aligning with truth above the dirt). Adult-to-adult relating is truth-to-truth. Lies are a “liche” (leech + liege) that distort people into monsters in someone else’s story.

A 2024 post, “Universal Truth,” extends this: a lie is a false Yang assertion that builds an unstable Tower of Babel. Facts are distinguished from truth and treated as potential idols. A balanced mind perceives Yin and Yang in harmony and aligns with Dharma (“everything in its right place”) and karmic principle. The phrase “In Lak’ech Ala K’in” (I am another yourself) is cited as a core recognition of interconnectedness. States and empires lack this universal Dharma and therefore fall.

Consciousness, resonance, and the larger Self

The page “Tuning the Soul to Infinity / Harmonic Resonance” presents a cosmological model. Harmonic resonance means a single pattern can exist simultaneously across space and time and remain connected, allowing consciousness to flow between those points. The pituitary gland anchors inward to a “core singularity” (still point of pure consciousness); the pineal expands outward into imagination and vision. Together they form the biological interface for soul incarnation and migration. A soul tunes its frequency to a compatible body and can connect with multiple beings across vast distances or times without physical travel. Panspermia and repeating evolutionary niches across the universe are accepted. An infinite wave faster than light, mass, and time radiates from the source; physical reality and linear time condense from that unity. At higher levels, apparently separate individuals are expressions of one overarching consciousness experiencing itself from many angles. Affinity follows soul-development path more than physical proximity. Resonance produces healing and enlightenment.

Magick, body, and expanded awareness

The 2016 “Bondage” post treats BDSM practices as ritual technology for sensory expansion and conscious awareness, drawn from books of ritual and theoretical magick. The aim is intimacy, trust, and complementary nervous-system reprogramming “In Perfect Love And Perfect Trust,” producing heightened perception that the author calls magick. It is framed as binding two people energetically and mentally, not merely physically.

Nature, tradition, and industrial overreach

The 2013 “Green Wave” post began as a fan piece on John Boorman’s The Emerald Forest and expanded into advocacy for traditional rainforest lifestyles and wisdom against large-scale development. The Belo Monte dam and the proposed Severn Barrage are criticised for destroying ecosystems (Europe’s largest wetlands and tidal bore). Personal and symbolic layers include multi-planar experienced shamanic integration from the film, a visit to an indoor tropical jungle, serpentine imagery, the Chinese Year of the Snake, and David Icke’s Children of the Matrix (which names the author). The blog is presented as an “intricate, complex tale” that keeps revealing deeper teaching.

Later practical and political notes on the same blog

2026 posts record frustrations with small-press publishers (arrogant, controlling, money-driven) and music platforms, plus self-promotion of independent releases. The author experiments with AI tools (preferring Grok as less censored) for concept development while insisting the blog itself is not AI-generated. A visit to a Restore Britain meeting leads to a description of the group as focused on preserving the UK union, distinct national cultures, and British cultural identity and ethnicity; the author notes they were later deemed a reputation risk. An older 2021 post frames certain LGBT organisational history as a corporate control agenda. These sit on the same site as the earlier truth and resonance writing; they show continuity of suspicion toward institutional narratives and gatekeepers.

Overall character of the philosophy on the blog

The through-line is that reality is more coherent and interconnected than official or social narratives allow. Truth must be lived, not merely asserted. Consciousness is not confined to one body or one lifetime; it can resonate across space-time via biological and harmonic mechanisms. Natural and traditional orders (rainforest wisdom, Dharma, karmic balance, complementary energetic pairing) are treated as more reliable than industrial or corporate impositions. The writing style itself—personal, confrontational, symbolic, repeatedly justifying the author’s right to speak—enacts the same stance: refuse the zombie narrative, wear the naked skull, keep tuning.

"Integrate the two sources (snakeappletree on X and snakeappletree.blogspot). 

Create a cohesive, simplified statement of 'the philosophy of snakeappletree'."

The philosophy of snakeappletree is that being human is a practice, not a given. It is something enacted through truthful conduct, earned restraint, and the capacity to perceive more than self versus object. Biology supplies the animal; civilisation, conscience, and inner work determine whether that animal becomes a human being.

Truth is both method and metaphysics. Externally it is forensic: assumptions are to be tested, narratives treated as provisional, images and institutions examined rather than believed. Internally it is spiritual: one must be true in order to see truly. Lies are not social lubricant; they are a form of abuse that produces cognitive fog and unstable structures. Peace built on falsehood is not peace.

Consciousness is not confined to one skull or one lifetime. Patterns can resonate across distance and time; the same awareness can inhabit, or recognise itself in, other forms. This does not dissolve particularity. Souls and cultures develop along different paths. Affinity follows resonance and conduct more than proximity or species membership. Equality of worth is not automatic; it is demonstrated.

Civilisation is a maintained order, not a moral entitlement. It requires boundaries, shared rules without religious exception, and preference for those who already inhabit and sustain it. Mass uninvited entry by people whose behaviour remains at the level of predation or simple dualism is treated as a civilisational error, not a humanitarian duty. Local, low-dependency communities—self-sufficient in food and skill, sceptical of distant pharmaceutical and political authority—are the practical counterpart to this view. High civilisations rise on technique and fall when ideology sabotages the systems that sustain them; the response is to keep knowledge and capability close to the ground.

Nature, traditional craft, and the trained body are more reliable teachers than corporate or state narratives. Industrial projects that erase living systems, gatekeepers who control rather than serve, and ideologies that declare every life equally sacred while ignoring observed differences in conduct, are rejected as forms of suicidal sentiment. Empathy is real and necessary; indiscriminate empathy that refuses to distinguish is not.

The stance is therefore particularist, experimental, and unsentimental: question everything, live the answer in conduct and craft, refuse the role assigned by other people’s stories, and treat both the cosmos and the village as places where order must be continually renewed rather than assumed.

Quotes

"List all quotes you can find from both sources, snakeappletree in his own words, 

which express his wisdom and philosophy."

On what a human being is

“‘Human Being’ is an adverb. It is a definition of behaviour. He’s mistaking that for Homo Sapiens Modernus. It is not the same thing. The proof of this is the existence of violent and sexual crime as a behaviour of some ‘monkeys’ but not others. There is a line and it is behavioural, hence; Human Being is an adverb.”

“A homo sapien mammal is a type of animal. It is not a ‘human’ by default. You have to earn that by proving you can behave humanely. A human being is a behaviour, not a genotype. It’s not something which is automatic and can be retracted. It’s the other way around. It’s not automatic but it is earned by good behaviour.”

“What makes human beings human beings is human being.”

“Where do I personally draw the line? ‘Human Being is an adverb.’ This is where I draw the line.”

“The mistake the west has made is assuming all monkeys are equal.”

On truth

“The truth is the truth even when nobody believes it. Group psychosis is no sacred moral foundation for righteousness.”

“The answer to this is very simple in theory but for most people seems impossible. It is: radical honesty. That’s it, that is all there is to it. Truth is my God.”

“My job is to question all assumptions.”

“The foundation of spirituality is ‘to see truth you have to be truth’.”

“So it is untrue that lies keep the peace.”

“Grown-ups can handle the truth.”

“A fact is not a truth. A fact is a deity, a false idol.”

“A lie is an assertion, a Yang, which is untrue. It is a Tower of Babel. It will fall.”

“If it can be destroyed by the truth, it will be destroyed by the truth. Whatever remains, is the truth.”

On empathy, dualism, and conduct

“I understand that there is more to existence than a dualism of Self and Everything-Else-Is-An-Object because I have a faculty for compassion and empathy.”

“Detaching from horror is the only sane way to deal with horror.”

“Authenticity. Compassion. Passion. Ingenuity. Protection. Respect.”

“The biggest character development in my life has been the revelation that not all life is sacred, we are not all equal.”

“The ideology has led to the suicidal empathy which is destroying the foundational stability of western civilisation.”

“If killing the bad guys means protecting the good guys, if destroying evil means protecting innocence, the right thing to do is to kill it.”

“We are beyond good and evil. It is a child’s game. Life and death is not. The adult game is called consequences.”

“Morality is inherent but it is not inherent in all of us.”

“Tools are not morals. It is not the tools themselves. It is something innate within us.”

On law, invitation, and civilisation

“One rule for all. No religious exceptions. Same with halal and kosher Animal cruelty.”

“Entering a country illegally instead of through legal routes is bad behaviour.”

“We have that already. It’s called Legal Immigration.”

“By invite only.”

“People demand integrity of ‘one rule for all’ as a British value.”

On self-reliance and institutions

“An oasis village is indefinitely self-sufficient for food and resources for the people who live within the village, if it is not raided, and does not require electricity.”

“We need to build Oasis villages. We need to build them around us in the environment we’re in right now… because it does not require relocation.”

“Not safe. I trust the village witch. I do not trust pharma.”

“I can teach da Vinci school of art technique. AI cannot do that. It cannot produce the same result. Skilled traditional artists.”

On consciousness and order (blog)

“The physics of harmonic resonance means that a single state or pattern can exist in multiple places across space and time at once and these places remain directly connected. When we learn to access this state, consciousness can flow between them.”

“Through harmonic resonance, distance and time lose their grip.”

“When a person holds an honest balance within their mind, they can see the shape of the Yin and Yang as a Harmony, where ‘all things are in their right place’. This is called Dharma.”

“Dharmic Principle is hand-in-hand with Karmic Principle, that all energy seeks to balance.”

“Somebody who has this mind can automatically detect falsehood because the shape of it, the vibration of it, the spectrum of it, does not conform to the pattern of Truth.”

SnakeAppleTree's Views On: 

"Examine snakeappletree's views on : Sex & Sexuality"

Snakeappletree’s views on sex sit in two layers that he treats as one system: private sacred practice and public sexual order. The first is tantric, ritual, and complementary. The second is sexed, reproductive, and hostile to what he sees as ideology, predation, or unearned access.

Personal sexuality: complementary, ritual, earned

On the blog he writes at length as a heterosexual man, raised by an overbearing lesbian mothers intention he be bisexual and “rebelling” toward what he calls his “own true male nature.” The sexual ideal is not casual equality of sensation. It is Yin and Yang in balance: divine masculine and divine feminine, heart and genitals, dominance and surrender as roles, not identities.

His favoured position, Nadu (a seated lotus adaptation associated with Gorean/BDSM culture), is praised because it “puts the woman at the centre of the universe,” squares her hips, and lets her move between seductress and submissive. He calls this sacred sexuality. Good sex, for him, is judged after the fact [EDIT: Ah, not entirely...] : are both people more balanced, more loving, more heart-centred than before? He cites the tantric formula that a man’s heart opens through his genitals and a woman’s genitals through her heart.

BDSM is framed as conscious technology, not fashion. He insists on safe, sane, consensual practice, discussion of roles (Dominant, submissive, Switch, Brat), and “In Perfect Love And Perfect Trust.” Bondage is described as binding two nervous systems so perception expands. He defends Gorean fiction against feminist readings: he says the books often put the male reader through submission rather than teaching him to rape.

The same ethic of earning appears in blunt later X posts. Oral sex is not an entitlement. Hygiene and diet matter. Attractiveness is listed as authenticity, femininity, good heart, hygiene, sexual willingness, and accountability; not makeup, shaved pubes as default, or “Barbie.” Fake is “disgusting. The goddess is Authenticity.”

So privately: sex is a rite that should heighten consciousness and balance the couple. Access and pleasure are conditional on conduct, cleanliness, and complementary polarity.

Sex as a public category, not a feeling

Publicly he treats sex as binary biology. “God made humans… as male and female.” Calling God non-binary and therefore treating non-binary people as superior is, in his words, “supremacy mixed with delusion. It’s a mental health condition.”

On transgender issues he draws a hard line between private life and public space. People may do what they want “in their own space if it’s harmless.” Self-identification does not override sex-based toilets and protections. A male who believes he is female is “either still male in impulse or is broken. Neither belongs in the women’s toilet.” He calls the demand for access a “male territorial takeover framed as vulnerability.” He says he is not “anti-trans or phobic” in the sense of hunting private adults; he is against dissolving female-only spaces. He also treats much transgender identification as psychologically/chemically disordered and comorbid with other psychiatric problems, while saying this is “not a criticism of bisexuality.”

LGBT as a political bloc is attacked on the blog as corporate social control: a decades-long sequence from stigma to untouchability, aimed at destablising the “heteronormative culture which is the breeding pool.” He contrasts loud minority protection claims with the majority that raises children. Bisexuality becoming ordinary would, in his paradox, make the political issue evaporate.

Children are a bright red line. He treats adult claims that a child is gay or lesbian because the parent is as predatory framing, and says children should not be expected to know a sexual identity. #ProLife sits in the bio; reproduction and the protection of women and girls are treated as civilisational duties, not lifestyle options.

Rape, predation, and “human being”

Sexual crime is one of his tests for whether someone is being human. Illegal-migrant rape, boat violence against women, and grooming gangs appear repeatedly as evidence that some men remain in “Self vs Everything-Else-Is-An-Object.” He treats rape as the act itself being the crime (including arguments of the “nobody is harmed if…” type). False rape allegations appear on a grievance list. Feminist “weaponised-vulnerability” is dismissed as a tactic. None of this is a theory of consent in the bedroom; it is the same behavioural line he draws everywhere: humane conduct is earned, not assumed.

How it fits the rest of his philosophy

Sex is another place he applies the same grammar:

• Adverb, not noun. Male/female is given; being a man or woman in a worthy way is practised. [EDIT: Ah, no.]
• Yin–Yang / Dharma. Polarity and balance are healthy; flattening sex into identity or “everyone is the same” is delusion.
• Consent plus hierarchy of conduct. BDSM must be consensual; public spaces follow sex, not feelings; pleasure is earned.
• Suspicion of institutions. Pharma, corporate Pride, and self-ID law are treated as narrative machines, like other official stories he refuses.
• Protection of the particular. British women and children, female-only spaces, and the reproductive majority come before abstract inclusion.

The tension in his own writing is obvious and unhidden: he can write a long hymn to putting the woman at the centre of a sacred act, then write that some women smell wrong and must earn to deserve oral sex; he can defend private BDSM exploration and still talk about trans people as broken or chemically poisoned. He does not try to make those registers polite. In his system they are the same rule: polarity, hygiene, truth, and earned access, in the bed, in the toilet, and at the border.

[EDITORIAL COMMENT: Meh. What does Grok know?] 

"Examine snakeappletree's views on : Death"

Snakeappletree’s view of death is not one doctrine. It splits into what happens to a soul, which deaths are crimes, and which deaths are consequences. He holds all three at once.

Death of the body is not the end of the pattern

On the blog, bodily death is a change of vehicle. Souls migrate by resonance: a consciousness can tune to another body across space and time through what he calls the pituitary–pineal partnership. The next form need not be human. Separate people may be one awareness looking through many eyes. Distance and time “lose their grip.”

Bone work is part of the same picture. Animal skulls and bones still carry species and individual presence; spirits press in; the material is powerful because it resonates. Working with the dead is not morbid tourism for him. It is contact that demands respect and a simpler, more careful mind.

He also fears a fake immortality: AI trained on a person’s words becomes a ghost that never dies, a “mausoleum of optimised souls.” The living fade; the copies outlast them. That is death of the messy human by replacement, not by grave.

So metaphysically: the organism ends; the pattern can move, linger in remains, or be counterfeited.

Not all death is equal, and not all life is sacred

This is the sharpest moral line, and it sits next to #ProLife without him treating that as a contradiction.

He has written that his biggest character change was seeing that not all life is sacred and we are not all equal. History, for him, is survival and consequence, not a child’s game of good and evil. “Suicidal empathy” that refuses to distinguish innocence from predation is what he says is killing Western stability. If destroying evil protects the innocent, “the right thing to do is to kill it.”

The same measure appears in smaller maxims:

• One murder undoes a lifetime of being “a lovely person.”
• An act that facilitates a crime is a crime. Volunteers who enable harm are culpable.
• Hedonism that ignores boundaries and consequences is the pattern that “destroyed multiple empires.”
• “The adult game is called consequences.”

Abortion late enough to be “until birth” he names murder. People who “kill their own babies” are called “sub-human.” That is the ProLife pole: the unborn and the child are inside the circle of lives that must not be taken.

Predators, ritual animal torture, and those who remain at “self versus object” sit outside that circle. Halal and kosher slaughter should be criminal animal cruelty; he even writes that a death penalty, when used, should match how a culture treats animals. Threatening to kill a child is weighed as worse than offensive speech.

So “sacredness” is not a species property. It tracks innocence, humane conduct, and whether someone is being human. The unborn child is sacred. The man who rapes and throws women off a boat is not granted the same status.

How he looks at dead bodies and atrocity

The forensic habit matters. “Forensic pathology” is in the bio for a reason. He treats images of the dead as evidence that can be faked, staged, or misread. Detachment from horror is “the only sane way to deal with horror,” not proof of no empathy. He demands hard proof before the word genocide; moral outrage is not evidence.

A corpse still has a moral claim in one narrow sense: “The same logic that nobody is harmed if you rape a corpse. The act is the crime.” Death does not wipe the meaning of the act.

He is willing to talk about civilisational and species death in the same register as personal death: AI, volcanoes, viruses, “Islamofascism,” and bad decision-makers “could kill us all.” Collapse is a recurring historical weather, not an unthinkable blasphemy.

What he is not saying

He is not a sentimental pacifist and not a casual nihilist. He does not write a Christian heaven/hell system as orthodoxy. He does not treat every killing in war or border defence as the same kind of event as abortion or grooming-gang rape. He does not treat pharma-managed dying as automatically trustworthy (“I trust the village witch. I do not trust pharma”).

The consistent grammar is the same as the rest of his philosophy:

• The body dies; the pattern may continue.
• Life is not automatically sacred by being Homo sapiens.
• Taking innocent life (especially the child’s) is murder and a fall from human being.
• Taking or accepting the death of those who destroy the innocent is consequence, sometimes duty.
• Look at the dead without letting the image think for you.
• Do not outsource dying, killing, or remembrance to institutions or copies that cannot bleed.

Death, in his writing, is the place where adverb-humanity is tested hardest: whether you still distinguish, whether you still tell the truth about what you are seeing, and whether you treat the innocent dead differently from the predator who made them so.

"Examine snakeappletree's views on : Truth" 

His writing on truth is already the spine of the other views, so I’ll organise it as a doctrine: what he says truth is, how it is known, what lies do, and what a person is required to do with it.Snakeappletree does not treat truth as a mood, a consensus, or a brand. In his own formula it is God: the thing you align with, not the thing you vote on. “Radical honesty. That’s it, that is all there is to it. Truth is my God.”

What truth is, and what it is not

Truth, for him, is independent of belief. “The truth is the truth even when nobody believes it.” A crowd agreeing does not sanctify it. “Group psychosis is no sacred moral foundation for righteousness.”

He splits fact from truth. On the blog: “A fact is not a truth. A fact is a deity, a false idol.” That is his word for idolatry and, in modern language, delusion. A fact can be accurate in isolation and still sit inside a false shape of the world. Truth is the pattern in which things are in their right place — what he calls Dharma, Yin and Yang in harmony. A lie is a Yang assertion that the world is a shape it is not. It is a brick in a Tower of Babel. “It will fall.”

So truth is not “whatever can be cited.” It is whether the whole holds. Propaganda, rumour, and official narrative can all be fact-shaped and still false in that larger sense.

How truth is known

He gives two routes that he refuses to separate.

Forensic route. Question every assumption. Step outside the frame that was put around the image or the post. The person who makes a claim carries the burden of proof. Big words need hard evidence. Moral indignation is not evidence. Live footage can be makeup, a film crew, a funded website. “I simply don’t know for sure” is an honest state. People who need to know they know have already left analysis.

Spiritual route. “The foundation of spirituality is ‘to see truth you have to be truth.’” A mind in honest balance, he writes, can feel when something does not conform — “the shape of it, the vibration of it, the spectrum of it.” Lived experience, craft, and pattern-recognition sit beside documents. Authenticity is the organ of perception. Fake is normal in a conditioned society; real is treated as sinister. The quest for authenticity is pathologised by people he thinks are already ill.

The two routes meet in radical honesty: say the thing, including “I do not know,” including the ugly particular. Grown-ups can handle the truth. Lying to children, or to keep a false peace, is not protection.

What lies do

Lies are not manners. They are abuse. They try to bend another person’s cognition away from what is so. He will not respect a knowing liar. “Keeping the peace” by lying pins the stress on the person who can still see. The victim then chooses inaction (stay the victim), war (refute and fight the zombie horde), or ascension (align with truth and leave the dirt).

Public lies are the same structure at scale: WMD, ministry-of-truth “misinformation” labels, genocide claims without proof, smears that replace evidence. A politician lying a country into war is still lying. A mob chanting a borrowed insult is still not thinking.

Falsehood also produces the “zombie”: the person who cannot tell truth from what they were told, and who needs you to play the villain in their story. Cognitive dissonance is named as disbelief syndrome. Political correctness, in the older blog essays, is training people to run a script instead of seeing.

What you are required to do

Truth is not contemplative only. It imposes conduct.

• Do not live inside the given frame.
• Do not worship facts, institutions, or your own side.
• Do not settle early to stop the pain of uncertainty.
• When the pattern is clear enough, draw the line and accept consequences.
• Wear the “naked skull” rather than someone else’s face.
• If a claim can be destroyed by the truth, let it be destroyed. “Whatever remains, is the truth.”

That last sentence is as close as he gets to a test: truth is what survives contact with reality after the story has been stripped.

The tension

He preaches an unclosed, multi-sided mind and also speaks as a man who already knows many things: which lives are sacred, which borders must exist, which rituals are cruelty, which images are probably theatre. In his system that is not hypocrisy. Analysis is how you refuse to be decided for. Truth is what remains after you have refused — and then you are supposed to live it, not keep it as a pose.

His view of truth is therefore both severe and simple: it does not need you. You need it. Belief does not create it. Consensus does not protect it. Lies do not keep the peace. The only way to see it is to stop being false yourself.

"Examine snakeappletree's views on : Magic" 

Snakeappletree does not treat magic as stage trick or as a religion you join. He treats it as a working model of how energy, language, body, and place actually behave; “mystic mumbo jumbo” only to people whose senses are too dull to notice. When understood, he says, “it is a science.” It just deals in subtle fields most people have been made too insensitive to feel.

Magic as physics, not costume

The central mechanism on the blog is harmonic resonance: a pattern can exist in more than one place and time at once and stay connected. Consciousness can flow along that link. Pituitary anchors inward to a still point; pineal opens outward into vision. Souls bond to bodies by matching frequency. That is his account of incarnation, travel without ships, and why bone still “resonates not only with the species but the individual.”

He claims laboratory-style confirmation where he can get it. Quartz in freezing water, Emoto-style: ice takes the helix of the crystal; “water molecules hold configurations. I absolutely know this to be a real thing.” Reiki, psychometry, the third-eye chakra, Castaneda/Yaqui training, and body water as an electromagnetic medium are stacked into one “holistic cohesive body of knowledge.” People of the Mind live in a different world from Intuitives; pollution, he says, is part of why so many cannot connect.

So magic, first: attunement. Tune the instrument (body, water, crystal, attention) and reality answers because it was already vibrating.

Magic as craft of the body

Sex and BDSM are written as ritual technology. Bondage is not costume play. It is two nervous systems bound “In Perfect Love And Perfect Trust,” studied from books of ritual and theoretical magick, aimed at heightened perception. Tantra, kundalini, Nadu, Yin–Yang, heart-through-genitals and genitals-through-heart: good sex is judged by whether the couple are more balanced and heart-centred afterwards. Hedonic engineering is re-imprinting a nervous system that has been tuned to the wrong object.

Sunrise on a mountain is a rite: the moment the sun is neither above nor below the horizon, breath through the chakras, contact with “raw primal purity.” Abraxas appears as hermaphrodite deity. Working with animal bone puts him among frustrated spirits until he simplifies and respects. He grew up around pagans and wiccans on both sides of the Severn; he notes “Pagan” as a Roman word for what became Powys. He trusts “the village witch” over pharma.

Local myth is source code, not décor. He draws Brythonic (Arthurian, Mabinogion), Irish, Norse, Saxon, and Roman material because that is the ground he lives on: “castles, magic-with-a-cost, the massive impact of nature and ecology… the importance of hearth.” Those, he says, are Tolkien’s sources too. Magic costs. Nature is not scenery.

Magic as language and cycle

He also uses spell in the older sense: words that make a world. “Western Feminazism is the spell which summons Shariah.” “'Smash The Patriarchy' is the ritual which summoned Islam to the West.” A lie is a Yang brick in Babel; belief empowers the false shape until it hardens into “fact.” Breaking the spell is linguistic as well as occult.

Time is ritualised. He points to a Mayan 52-year cycle and “the ritual including national blackouts preceding the burning heart ceremony, mathematically scheduled for 2027.” Civilisations rise and fall in patterned sabotage; that cyclical view sits next to the occult calendar rather than against it.

The unfinished manuscript The Stages of Light reads Abrahamic religion as Hermetic/Gnostic stages of consciousness, not three rival final answers. Gods can be both real and constructed: focused until they become bridges. Trickster figures (Loki / Hanuki) teach by trickery. Lovecraft and his father’s occult shelf are part of the furniture, not a joke, including a story of conception “in that bizarre ritual on a stormy night as the stars aligned.”

What magic is not, for him

It is not a licence to flatten sex, borders, or evidence. He can say “Bright Blessings” to a pagan and still demand hard proof of genocide. He can run quartz experiments and still call some political language a summoning he wants broken. He can write Garou/Theurge myth as lived metaphor and still insist consent is the critical in any power-exchange.

Magic-with-a-cost is the tone: scars to know the deeper story, taint in the blood, duty over instinct, hearth against swamp and sea. The village witch is trusted because she is local, embodied, and uncaptured; not because every crystal shop is holy.

In his system, then, magic is the same law as truth and sex and death, written in another key: reality is patterned; attention and body can couple to the pattern; words and rites change the coupling; the cost is real; institutions that deny the field will still try to own your health and your story. The work is to stay sensitive enough to feel the helix in the ice, and honest enough not to call a lie a spell you want to live under.
