What seems wild to us is not the same for traditional culture and tribes left to live at an early civilizational level. Ethnologists and anthropologists in this case correctly speak not about primitive, but about other cultural attitudes and beliefs.
A primitive man lives in everyone and it is not so difficult to wake him up. With us, he still did not really go to bed, so he dozed off. A hundred years ago, it was the norm to leave children in maternity hospitals and kill their own kind.
In order to return all this, it is enough to create appropriate living conditions and not show that it is possible in some other way. Turning off the internet is a good move in this direction. And then only one who is able to endure primitive initiations will be called a man. And women will treat death in childbirth as normal. And besides homeless dogs, homeless children will appear on the street.
Traumatic experiences set the boundaries of what is acceptable. But is it necessary to specially cultivate trauma (the stages of separation are already traumatic) and, with the help of propaganda, raise it to the rank of duty to the Motherland? Preliminarily putting millions of people on the brink of poverty and poverty. Otherwise, they will not feel how it is to defend the Motherland and will refuse to kill others.
In such circumstances, being the one who didn't shoot will take tremendous courage.
Today they write about work as a variant of initiation into the male world. You can also remember sports, martial arts, tourism, educational programs, scientific work, philosophy as a practice of developing consciousness and other adult challenges that make men out of boys. The same therapy by a psychologist who himself was initiated is a transformational event.
The modern world offers many transitional rituals without primitive humiliation and pain, which are only suitable for instilling the skills of unquestioning obedience to elders and restraining the hormonal activity of young animals.
The emerging conflicts and disputes on this basis are associated with the watershed of primitiveness and civilization. To whom is closer and more organic. The army initiation, familiar to many from American militants and their own service in the ranks of the armed forces, the change of batons to planes and tanks has nothing to do with evolution. This is not a qualitative but a quantitative transformation.
So it is possible, it has worked for millennia and still works, but is it necessary for the initiation of modern youth?
In order to ensure that disputes about what is necessary and sufficient in initiations do not lead to a splitting of the psyche, the following questions are important:
Can I, as a civilized person, get to know Pithecanthropus in myself without turning into him? Does my pithecanthropus understand his place in the world civilization process and is he ready to evolve?
