Raw Egg Nationalist Presents #1
Raw Egg Nationalism in Theory and Practice: Cook Good with the Raw Egg Nationalist
What is raw egg nationalism? And how can the massive consumption of raw eggs save us physically and politically from the depredations of globalism? Contained within are some of the secrets of raw egg nationalism, an esoteric movement of self-realisation that has set the anon bodybuilding community ablaze. Forget what you know about nutrition -- the nostrums of a medico-political regime that has done nothing but sicken the world -- and embrace the wisdom and diets of mavericks like Vince Gironda, the Iron Guru. Discard the bland chicken-and-rice diet of the Virgin Meal Prepper and become the Chad Egg Slonker... A new world of raw-egg-based vitality awaits you, anon.

There is a certain very fun corner of the Internet that is extremely political, despite almost never talking about politics. You ask how to consolidate power and they tell you about the benefits of hack squats as an assistance exercise.
This book is in the same vein. A cookbook written with enough passion that it becomes a political statement. A very fun read despite being just a gimmick. I really enjoyed the meat sauces section. My only complaint is that it was not long enough.

I AM BECOME SNEK DESTROYER OF EGGS
this book is somewhat odd. bits of wisdom spurred throughout but overall a cook book geared toward fitness/body building based primarily on high fat, high protein, highly natural diet (and almost always including eggs). it is worth a read through once for the wisdom bits and then as a reference for trying out its many recipes. i’ve already started slonking a few eggs daily and will be trying out many recipes in the future. Overall a fun and useful read for the fitness minded anon.

Slonk up and join.
Basically just a short recipe book. Haven’t tried all the recipes yet, will do so over time.
“The premise is simple really, we are nationalists of a variety that emphasize the health and vitality of the nation and all who live in it. The corrupted toxic food supply is an outgrowth of the large scale low quality mindset of globalism that has no concern other than the bottom line. Not loyalty to health and vitality of the country or anyone in it.”
For a full treatise on his idea about food, fitness, and history as hinted here, check out the follow-up Eggs Benedict Option. But start with this, it’s a quick read and will give you some good recipes.

"It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes." -- Ecclesiastes 7:18
A friend invited me to submit poetry to a publication associated with this goober, Raw Egg Nationalist. When I read his name, I sighed, knowing I would have to look him up. Before reading this book, I listened to a podcast he was on, as well as reading the majority of one of his "Man's World" magazines (close to 400 pages!?).
The only thing salvagable from this philosophy-claiming-not-to-be-a-philosophy was the link between diet and politics. As I've said before, disagree as I do with radical leftists, I do respect them when they are consistent in their conduct, i.e. buying only secondhand clothes/items and going through hell to alter their diet so it's "ethical." Even if I think their diet is gimmicky and strange, I respect it, because I know how difficult it is to change long-ingrained habits like that.
I'm surprised, however, that I don't feel the same respect for Raw Egg Nationalist (REN). Though of course I generally agree with the idea of eating simpler, less-processed food, I don't think it's possible, strictly speaking. Studies have shown that microplastics are already in basically all water. All the eggs at the store, even the ones that say they're organic, free-range, cage-free, etc., they all include chicken suffering. As some lefties say, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. So to me, the solution is to consume less, not more. The solution is to learn about why others believe what they believe, not dismiss them out of hand as, *puts on reading glasses*, "the useful idiots of globalism."
All this dietary extremism is cute given that the author, like all far-right trolls, claims the book isn't really that political. This contradicts his earlier statement at the beginning of the book about diet and politics being inextricably linked, which I think is right. His explicitness about his diet betrays the implicit politics he likes to hide under the surface. In other words, a regressive diet strongly implies a regressive politics. He claims that nationalism is the only force which can stand up against the "globalist" (conspiracy?), but he doesn't explain why. Just like he claims he eats at least a dozen raw eggs a day, but for some reason I doubt that too. The sad reality is that there are unnecessary and sometimes harmful things being added to our food; but they're mostly incidental, accidental, unintentional, cost-saving, market-driven. When you make this out to be a global conspiracy, when you invest these harmful substances with agency, that is when you lose me, and when you really go off the rails.
Speaking of which, REN was born out of the chronically-online hellscape that was COVID, thus he also does his own science, reading studies and latching onto them seemingly at random; like everyone who did their own research during those dark times, he has his own agenda. His, rather than being a straightforward schizoid libtertarian/anarcho-luddite approach, was more of the breed of chaos-mongering trolls who just want to make everything into a meme. Putting his real politics into a nonfiction manifesto or essay would be both unimpressively short and boringly unoriginal. So instead, we get a bunch of recipes.
The reason for this is that the meme... that's really it. There is nothing more than "slonk raw eggs!" The eggs are basically a bit of weightlifting history trivia that serves as a post-hoc justification for his political program which includes, among other things, viewing all women with disdain, calling everything effeminate "gay" or "faggy," as well as insulting Andrew Tate not because he's a dumbass, but because he's a race-mixer. The egg yolk and egg whites curiously illustrate the only acceptable races, so it seems, namely the Aryans and the East Asians. Yukio Mishima and Julius Evola both frequently get quoted in these circles.
Perhaps the biggest flaw I see in this whole paradigm is that it all rests on a major contradiction: bodybuilding is not equivalent to general health and wellness. Bodybuilding seeks first and foremost an aesthetic, not health or longevity of life. There is a reason olympians are leaner than bodybuilders, yet many orders of magnitude more coordinated, faster, more agile, and yes, usually much stronger. The reason is that bodybuilding only cares about aesthetics; if it cared at all about health, there would be some sort of moderation, and if it cared at all about longevity, it would include seafood and other practices that ultracentenarians use. Furthermore, bodybuilding is an inherently selfish sport, one where the end result is not any particular achievement or world records, but only sustained attention and exponential ego-building. Using this as the basis of a political paradigm smells conspicuously proto-fascist, especially of the Mishima variety. Certainly, there is no room for Christian moderation in this, let alone any caring for the weak and the oppressed, as Christ and the Psalmists regularly preach. There's a reason why weak, effeminate, Jewish Christianity triumphed, while pagan, misogynistic, homoerotic masculinity-worship failed. Too bad REN doesn't know enough history, philosophy, or theology to understand that reason, meaning he and his ilk will fall into the same error.

Raw egg nationalism is the idea that individual strength and power strengthens the nation, and vice versa. Raw egg nationalists want both themselves and their nation-states to be intimidating, powerful, and yoked to the fucking gills.
Presumably, the author considers raw eggs to be the superlative health food. It is, after all, the food he considers most likely to increase strength and vitality. If so, he offers few reasons for this presumption. Eating uncooked eggs will increase your infectious burden, which is a key driver of ageing and disease. The proteins of uncooked are less bioavailable than those of cooked eggs, and the protein avidin in uncooked egg whites binds to biotin in the egg yolk, preventing its absorption. Biotin helps you metabolise the huge amounts of cholesterol in eggs. It also stops your hair from falling out. So, slonking raw eggs is hardly a better option than an omelette.
But the Raw Egg Nationalist (REN) doesn't really care about slonking. He's part of a niche internet subculture whose members substitute Twitter for real friendships, evolutionary arguments about health for data-driven science, and quack nutritionists, such as Ray Peat and Anjonus Vonderplanitz, for reputable interpreters of scientific research. In the foreword, REN tags about a dozen Twitters handles. Some of their names are hilarious ("ZyzzRespecter" got an honest-to-god LOL out of me; RIP the OG), but their content shoddy is as fuck. They trade shit memes, LARP as paleolithic hunters, and circle-jerk each other via retweets. Some, such as the aptly named "SpinachBrah", are supposed experts on topics as particular as the food spinach. Check their feeds, though, and you'll find only shitty memes, shitty cookbooks traded as memes, and, on the rare occasion that they're brave enough to do so, shitty face reveals which unmask them as stereotypically ghoulish-looking net addicts.
It's a notably unexciting subculture, sterile and dumb.
Just like this "book".

We will see how it goes. I am in the middle of a gym binge I intend to make two weeks in a row (currently on day four) and I have had a seven raw egg milkshake as well as a four raw egg milkshake in that time. Much of this book is genuinely touching. REN is something of a Russiahead, as I am given my pupsik. I believe we dined in the same St. Petersburg hotel at different ages. The part explaining him falling in love with cooking from the steak tartare (as in tartar -oriental riders!) felt good. I am hungry for more.

Simpel bok på 50 sider om hva vi faktisk burde få inn i kroppen vår. Ikke noe revolusjonært skrevet, men har gode oppskrifter og forfatteren plukker ut relevante og interessante utsagn. Kunne vært fint om han nevnte Aajonus Vonderplanitz, den flotteste mannen innenfor slik mat

Very good and eye opening book that has reinforced much of what I’ve learned from my own experiences. I look forward to trying these recipes and diets for myself.

I'll give one of these shakes a try, if I love it I may change my review to reflect the revelation. This was shorter than I expected however.

A series of essays plus some recipes for shakes, meat, and other treats from everyone's favorite RWBB. Thoroughly enjoyed, I found it inspirational in some ways. Eggs are one of my favorite foods so it's good I have an excuse to eat them more. Black pilling in other ways.
