The burying of real human identity
"Class" does not
supersede racial and ethnic identity as a social bond, human nature
remains primarily kin-centered and group or ethnic-centered. There is
a biological origin to basic social behavior, which originally
created most of the laws of identity and social behavior.
In any case, classes are
often ethnically defined. We know modern liberals won't admit any
distinctions between human beings of any kind, be they class or
ethnic distinctions. But why is this so hard to admit even for
conservatives? (for example, see "Class and Identity"
Chronicles, Oct. 2016)
I suppose it's that old
conception of spiritualism in religion, like the ideologies of
liberals that conservatives hate, which pulls conservatives away from
a material explanation of human nature and human goals.
Theological materialism
resolves this problem both in social philosophy and religion. We
evolve in the material world to supermaterial Godhood, and our
evolution requires knowing real human nature, which always moves
toward the natural separations of ethnopluralism and ethnostates,
after periods of the various types of imperialism, as history shows.
This is the way we exhume
real human nature and real human identity, which modern liberalism
and to a lesser extent modern conservatism continue to move away from
or bury. This defines deep-conservatism.
