Universalism versus Patriotism


When the U.S. goes abroad in search of monsters and the people ask---“Why is it our business?---the answer involves the clash between universalism and patriotism. Real human nature does not contain the values related to universalism except on the lower level of the hierarchy of values. Universalism, human rights, equality, open immigration, world democracy, etc. etc, do not much relate to the kin-centered, group-centered, regional-centered patriotism of basic human nature, which developed over tens of thousands of years of evolution---and this is universal.

So the patriots have begun to fight back, especially in Europe, against the sneering, presumptuous, universalists, who were indoctrinated in our colleges and universities with the ideology of cultural Marxism, which William Lind said is the basis of political correctness. The arrogant and condescending Clinton's are examples of this type. Sociobiology desperately needs to enter our Humanities departments, but that is obviously not happening.

But patriotic groups are rising all over, even in the U.S.---and I say go to it! It's big power against little power, but so what? Real human nature and human history are on the side of the patriots.

  1. I was searching on 'Is Universalism the beast?' and found this post. On the other hand, what is patriotism? I found it right here: ' the lower level of the hierarchy of values' is patriotism. What is 'the hierarchy of needs'. They are both an evil.

    1. By "lower level" of hierarchy I mean that they are the farthest away from the strongest human genetic instincts of human nature, coming long after kin-selection and group-selection, and are only engaged when the whole world threatens the local.
