Decoding BULLSHITTO: How did we get here?
In a eureka moment, amidst the labyrinth of complex texts and the quest for a unifying series theme, inspiration struck us.
Our martial arts journey, steeped in the tradition of Bushido — the esteemed samurai code of feudal Japan, emphasizing loyalty, honor, and martial arts — provided the perfect muse.
Drawing from Inazo Nitobe’s insights, we revered the samurai’s seven guiding rules:
Righteousness, Loyalty, Honor, Respect, Honesty, Courage and Consistency.
Through the years the martial arts world witnessed a dilution of its sacred ethos, morphing noble arts into a carnival of “Bullshido” — a term coined to label the circus of faux mastery and charlatanism.
Bullshido
The term Bullshido gained popularity to describe the desecration of the original Bushido.
“Martial Arts instructions that are fraudulent, inept or otherwise not worth trusting.
If the instructor appears to be out to make money, then the chances are that you will probably encounter Bullshido”.

Observing the spiritual marketplace’s chaos, it’s clear the apple hasn’t fallen far from the dojo.
Welcome to the Wild West of the Spiritual Bazaar, where spiritual narcissism rides high, and authenticity is as rare as a unicorn at a donkey show.
Behold the landscape littered with imposters, faux gurus, pseudo teachers, counterfeit wisdom, bogus enlightenment, and a parade of phony claims, teachings, knowledge, secrets, courses, and enlightenment. An all-you-can-eat buffet of spiritual fast food designed to fatten the ego while starving TRUTH. From the moment you embark on this journey, you’re sold the dream of awakening, enlightenment, and a one-way ticket to Nirvanaville—always just one more expensive seminar away.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re navigating a maze of spiritual McDojos, where every corner hides a new brand of enlightened charlatan peddling salvation for the low, low price of your sanity, you have come to the right place.
Enter BULLSHITTO, the dojo for the discerning Truth Samurai who’s had enough of the fluff. Armed with the katana of skepticism and shielded by a no-nonsense approach to spiritual growth, you’re about to cut through the crap with the precision of a laser-guided truth missile. It takes guts, grit, and a hefty dose of reality to navigate this path — a path where courage, respect, honesty, and consistency are not just virtues but your very survival tools.
Prepare to dive headfirst into the spiritual dumpster fire with eyes wide open, separating the sacred from the scam with the skill of a seasoned con artist’s worst nightmare. Because, in the quest for TRUTH, BULLSHITTO is not just a challenge; it’s an initiation into the sacred art of calling out nonsense by its name.
Let the Games begin.
