The manipulation of being-for-another


Being-for-another, as the philosopher's like to call it, or altruism, has had a long history of manipulation, from the ancient ascetics to the cultural Marxists of today.

Even Darwin had problems understanding altruism. Neo-Darwinist's like the great E. O. Wilson cleared things up by explaining that: "Within groups, selfish individuals beat altruistic individuals, but groups of altruists beat groups of selfish individuals." Individuals in groups work together this way in a co-evolution.

Ascetics did not care at all about material life and actually sought to block material life to reach the god within, therefore they could conveniently call for universalism and egalitarianism because they had no interest in natural material evolution and selection, they saw natural competition as fruitless and only getting in the way of their spiritualism.

Then we had the manipulations of Being-for-another, or altruism, by individuals and groups who promoted universalism and egalitarianism for others for the purpose of weakening the natural ethnocentrism of others so that their own ethnocentric group could prosper---a devious way to operate.

Is all fair in love and war? Not really, if you want to survive and prosper over the long-term.

The biological origin of most of our our social behavior actually ends the intellectual defense of universalism and egalitarianism as well as ending postmodern relativism. As long as we are alive every cell in our body demands survival and reproductive success. This natural activation can be blocked, subverted, or it can be unknown to us, but it can't legitimately be intellectually or instinctively denied.

Existing realistic values come from the various social and cultural methods we try (including postmodernism) to biologically and genetically advance ourselves and our related ethnic group, locality and nation. This affirms in general the populist nationalism now trying to rise in the corrupted West, which needs to eventually develop into an ethnopluralism of ethnostates or regions. Ethnostates could even be established legally in the United States with our constitutional separation of powers and states.

Whatever peace and harmony is possible between different and competing human groups can be best accomplished in an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, that is the political/cultural structure most in harmony with real human nature, which remains kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual, marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic among other conservative things, with group-selection as the primary unit of successful selection, followed by individual selection.
