Defining real conservatism and ethnopluralism
I prefer to think of the official
American hierarchy as a pyramid with the federal government on the
bottom and the local states on the top, which seems to be what the
Founders had in mind. Then the state hierarchies would have the
state government on the bottom and the local towns and cities on the
top. That is a federalism and subsidiarity that can work well with
real human nature which remains primarily kin and group-centered.
From there I see, perhaps with a few amendments, the gradual move
toward making the states ethnostates, which many of them are, more or
less, which again harmonizes with real human nature. The whole can be
protected strongly, while not being isolated and trading with the world, and also protected with economic nationalism.
This
is not "evil racism" it is recognizing the flat reality of
human nature, which remains as it has always been, kin-centered,
gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making,
hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making,
among other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of
successful selection,
followed by individual selection. This worldview has the benefit of fitting in
with traditional and renewed conservatism, and avoiding unworkable radicalism. What is evil are those who block
this reality for selfish purposes.
Most importantly, this worldview also
offers a good chance of real material evolution toward real
Godhood, with real variety (see theological materialism). The old religion is included but transformed as the spiritual God is now seen as a super-material Godhood evolved to in the material and super-material world.
