Modern life is an intricate circus, a dance of constructs that govern how we interact, achieve, and sustain ourselves. At the center of this theater is the social hierarchy—a structure built on the foundation of societal norms, systems, and constructs designed to give power to those who play its game. Yet, beneath the surface lies a deeper, older hierarchy, one rooted in human nature itself: the primal hierarchy. This is the realm of dominance, violence, survival, and raw capability—forces that operate beyond the facade of suits, titles, and polite handshakes. To understand the interplay between these hierarchies is to liberate yourself from the chains of the modern world. Let’s explore this through philosophy, psychology, and my own nomadic, autonomous lifestyle—a path that rejects enslavement to constructs and prioritizes living in alignment with the raw truth of existence. The Social Hierarchy: A Game of Constructs
The social hierarchy, as we know it, is a fragile construct. Its existence depends on rules, norms, and institutions that enforce compliance. These systems favor not the strongest or the most capable, but those who conform, follow, and manipulate the framework to their advantage. As Michel Foucault wrote, “Power is not an institution, and not a structure; neither is it a certain strength we are endowed with; it is the name that one attributes to a complex strategical situation in a particular society.” The social hierarchy, in essence, is a strategy—a game designed to keep the masses in line and reward those who play within its boundaries. But here’s the catch: the social hierarchy is inherently unstable. It is a web of people, institutions, and systems that can crumble at any moment. A single scandal, a shift in public opinion, or a sudden economic downturn can strip a man of everything he has built. The higher you climb within this structure, the more dependent you become on its institutions. You are beholden to the opinions of others, to the corporations that employ you, and to the networks that validate your worth. Men who build their lives entirely within the social hierarchy are playing a dangerous game. Their power is borrowed, not earned. And when that power is stripped away, they are left with nothing. The Primal Hierarchy: The Realm of True Power In contrast, the primal hierarchy is timeless and unshakable. It is the raw, unfiltered expression of human nature—domination, survival, and the ability to shape the world around you through your will. Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch aligns with this idea: the individual who transcends societal morality and creates his own values. “The man of tomorrow is he who surpasses man,” Nietzsche wrote. This is the primal hierarchy in action—those who refuse to be bound by the rules of others and instead carve their own path. The primal hierarchy is not about titles or accolades; it is about capability. A man’s place in this hierarchy is determined by his ability to survive, dominate, and reproduce. It is the hierarchy that operates in every room, every interaction, regardless of societal constructs. If you’ve ever looked at the men in your workplace and felt, deep down, that you could tear them apart—that you could take everything they have if you so desired—that is not a feeling to ignore. It is a reminder of your place in the primal hierarchy and the fragility of the social hierarchy. Living Beyond the Constructs I rejected the social hierarchy long ago. I live a nomadic, autonomous lifestyle, surrounded by beautiful young women, living off-grid in the mountains, and thriving on my terms. My income is diverse—generated through owning land, renting out properties, engineering work, and adult modeling. This lifestyle has taught me a crucial truth: freedom is found in self-sufficiency and autonomy, not in chasing validation from the social hierarchy. I see the social hierarchy for what it is: a circus. It is a game I play when it benefits me, but I do not live within it. I use it as a tool, leveraging its systems and networks to extract resources, but I remain detached. My foundation is built on the primal hierarchy. If society collapsed tomorrow, I would still thrive. I have land, skills, and the ability to survive without the institutions that most people rely on. The same cannot be said for those whose power is tied to their job, their social media following, or their political connections. As Robert Greene wrote in The 48 Laws of Power, “The ultimate power is the power to escape.” True power lies in building a foundation that does not depend on the approval or stability of the social hierarchy. It is about being able to walk away, to disappear, and to rebuild without losing a step. The Call to Freedom If you are reading this and feel trapped—trapped in a job you hate, trapped by societal expectations, trapped by the opinions of others—know this: there is another way. The first step is to stop taking the social hierarchy seriously. See it for what it is: a game, a play, a facade. Use it when it benefits you, but do not let it define you. Build your foundation on the primal hierarchy. Develop skills that make you self-sufficient. Acquire land, resources, and the ability to survive independently. Detach yourself from the constructs that enslave you, and embrace the raw truth of existence. As I often say, the world belongs to those who take it. Remember, society is not real. It is a construct designed to control you. But you are not a construct. You are an animal, a force of nature, a being capable of shaping your own destiny. Step into your power, and the world will bend to your will. Conclusion: The social hierarchy is a tool, not a master. The primal hierarchy is where true power lies. Build your life on a foundation that cannot be shaken by the whims of society. Be the man who thrives regardless of the system. If you feel the fire within you—the desire to rise above, to dominate, to live life on your terms—embrace it. The world belongs to those who dare to take it. Are you ready to break free? To escape the construct and reclaim your autonomy? The journey is not easy, but it is worth it. Join me in building a life beyond the constructs, a life of power, freedom, and self-mastery. The world is yours for the taking.
