Stephen McNallen draws on the theories of psychologist Carl Jung, who argued that distinct peoples and nations share a collective unconscious that can be dominated by certain archetypes. Wotan has two key characteristics: fury and wisdom. Fury led to the fratricidal tragedy of the Second World War and the even further degradation of Germany. Thus, wisdom will be the key in the new postwar era. Mr. McNallen argues that Ragnarök is upon us, but we need "runes rather than ruins" and "the mead of inspiration rather than a poison pill in the bunker." He calls us to "become more than what we are," and to "deserve life and deserve victory." "Wokeness is weakness," he says, "and weakness is death for the individual and the group."
