So how do we politically balance conservative human nature with slowly changing evolution?


Those of us who see the political inevitability of an ethnopluralism of ethnostates base this on human nature and history. We see empires as the decadent end of civilizations and ethnostates as the flourishing height of civilizations.

But the nature of evolving life changes very slowly. "Major changes in the genetic sequence of the human genome, located in the small compartment inside the cells of the human body called the nucleus, can take hundreds of years---if not thousands or even millions---depending on the current selective pressures and mutation rate." (Eirik Garner.) This is why revolutions don't usually last long and often return to old ways.

Even the smallest change in human nature and our DNA structure, for example, in our immune system, took hundreds of thousands of years (now we have genetic engineering which may be more rapid). Human nature remains 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 selection, followed by individual selection.

So how do we politically balance conservative human nature with slowly changing evolution? How do we balance tradition and progress?

The originalist position on the Supreme Court regarding the Constitution says that the meaning of the Constitution was fixed at the time of its adoption and cannot be changed through judicial interpretation. But this can be balanced with the Amendment process as the formal way to change the Constitution with a two-thirds vote of both houses of Congress or by a convention called by Congress at the request of two-thirds of the state legislatures. Ratification of an amendment takes three-fourths of the states to approve.

That conservative, legal, and non-radical way to change can eventually lead to establishing an ethnopluralism of ethnostates or regions in the United States, perhaps based on our Constitutional separation of powers and states, and protected by federalism. It will not be easy at all, but it is far preferable to radical Marxism or brutal Fascism, or the political fabrications of today based on flawed definitions of human nature, which have brought us civil disruptions, now increasing across the world within unworkable multicultural (multi-ethnic) societies, which demand that distinctively different groups all get along living in the same space. And all for the benefit of a small elite who could care less about the Constitution, the nation, or the people.

It is frustrating to now see even paleoconservative's falling all over themselves to deny kin-centered and ethnocentric human nature in the face of nasty charges that they are "racist." But we need to keep the channeling of human nature and human drives moving in the natural direction of an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, where we will eventually go anyway.  How much better if it can happen conservatively, legally, and non-radically.
