Light comedies in the evening can relax me, but over the years television comedies have become so raunchy and obscene, even during family prime time, that they only make me angry. It is the conscious destruction of the traditional values of normal citizens that drives me crazy.
Why do the popular media producers want to destroy traditional values? I think of Nietzsche's diagnosis of the metamorphosis of the will to power. First justice is demanded at the hands of those who hold power. Then freedom is demanded. Next they demand equal rights largely to prevent competitors from growing power. And we now have the latter stages of this metamorphosis involving the total destruction of the values and the power of those who once held power.
This is what happens with multiculturalism. A more practical way is to affirm an ethnopluralism of different states and regions, protected internally and externally by a light federalism. The U.S. Constitution could informally or formally accommodate this with it with its separation of powers and states. The media won't like it, but who cares?
