Clarifying the clunky phrase sociobiological constitutionalism
The general meaning is in the clunky phrase
sociobiological constitutionalism.
Human nature today is virtually
the same as it has always been in all its dimensions in the “state
of nature.” And open immigration, same-sex marriage, the
concentration of power, crony-capitalism, with rootless technocrats
and globalists managing it all, does
not relate to the real state of human nature.
In every human culture ever honestly
and rationally studied, human nature included, among other things,
kin-selection preferences, incest taboos, marriage, hierarchy,
division of labor, gender differentiation, localism, even
ethnocentrism, with group-selection as the primary unit of selection, and individualism only as a secondary form of selection within the group. If the culture proposes to not include these things,
the culture does not last long and it will always return to these
things.
People today are dropping out, not
hippies but conservatives, seceding, home schooling, basically
quitting politics rather than fighting the rootless global elitists,
which hands the victory to the centralized state. What we should be
promoting is ethnopluralism, which could be accommodated by the
constitutional principle of the separation of powers and states.
Orestes Brownson said that if you
deemphasize, or take away the states of the United States you end up
with a “centralized despotism.” I believe the relationship
between the central government and the states should be heavily
weighted on the side of the states, even to the degree of having
states or regions with distinctly ethnic cultures, or virtual
ethnostates. Federalism can protect their independence. Why
ethnopluralism? In our increasing crowded world that is the way we
can relate best to real human nature, real human groups, and the real
state of nature. Otherwise we will have either slow or fast decline, civil disruptions, even
civil war, which would probably lead only to despotism.
