Morals and legal norms are developed from the biological origin of social behavior
According to Honneth,
Foucault's view on Nietzsche's will to power was that morals and
legal norms are "historical variable superstructures." I
disagree, these social superstructures are developed from the
biological origin of social behavior, which is "limited" by
our biologically derived human nature. Why is that so hard to affirm?
In Foucault's case did he push an amoral power force to better allow
for the deviant behavior he preferred? Where does integrity come
from? Are all philosophies biased by the biography of the
philosopher? Philosopher's block truths as readily as do the
marauding capitalists they hate.
There is flexibility and
freedom within the genetic limits of human nature, but it does not
affirm most ideologies. The
biological origin of our social behavior actually ends the
intellectual defense of postmodern relativism, as well as the
culturally Marxist ideologues. But it also takes some of the
virtue-signaling away from the spiritualism of conservatives.
The
reality points toward the political/cultural solution of the an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates. This is the sociopolitical/cultural structure most in harmony with real human nature,
which developed tens of thousands of years ago and is still with us today.
In our increasingly crowded world an ethnopluralism of ethnostates
looks like the most equitable and natural way for "us all to get
along." The challenge will be in protecting the independence of
ethnostates from marauders on the left or the right. That was the
challenge the founders of America faced with the Constitutional
separation of powers and states, which could be reaffirmed and
expanded to ethnostates.
