What defines the evolutionary conservatism that could save America and the West?
I believe the
conservatives are right in affirming the traditional old ways, the
natural customs, habits and ceremonies of the people, but there are
flaws in conservatism that arise from ignoring or blocking the
biological origin of social behavior and thereby misreading human
nature and misreading the causes of the universe.
But changing traditional
misreadings is not as easy as affirming them. Change doesn't usually
happen until the flaws are seriously bringing the traditional system
down. But the changes are often too radical and short term, which is
why conservatives are usually right in affirming the traditional old
ways. Changing a traditional system can also take time, often too much
time in the face of decline and degeneration.
But then, we see how short
a time it took Cultural Marxism to take over the culture of the
United States and the West. It goes back only to the 1960s and the
hippies and the peace movement, although it had ties to older
classical Marxism.
Libertarianism among many
businessmen shares much of the blame for the decline of America.
Concentrating almost exclusively on making a god of individualism and
exploiting the freedom to make money came back to bite the
libertarians when the Hollywood moguls and leftist publishers and
producers of New York, as well as the academic world, exploited the
lavish American freedom and deformed a formerly conservative culture
to fit their leftist cultural agendas. The Hollywood moguls and
leftist publishers found that they could make big money while also
changing culture in a culturally Marxist direction. They marched
right through the institutions and they won the cultural war. It was
brilliant. And it didn't take very long.
The success was made
easier by the flaws in American conservatism, such as valuing the
individual or individual selection over the group or group selection,
and more deeply, from the flaw in religion that sees everyone as the same
under God, thereby opening the door to egalitarian evaluations in
social policies akin to socialism/communism.
The big flaw in Cultural
Marxism, aside from ignoring or blocking the biological origin of
social behavior, is that in same way that Satanism depends upon
deriving their values from going opposite religious values, Cultural
Marxism does the same with conservatism, both are negative systems
which depend for their values on turning the values of another system
upside down.
Human nature as empirically explained by sociobiology
remains basically 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. Even the smallest change in human nature and
our DNA structure, for example, in our immune system, took hundreds
of thousands of years---although genetic engineering may speed that
up.
Even in advanced modern societies where survival is
easier, the dangers of Marxism (demanding biologically unnatural equality for the unequal),
radical feminism (demanding biologically unnatural roles for women),
homosexuality (demanding biologically unnatural sexual life styles) and postmodern
relativism (demanding a biologically unnatural relativity of values) will
eventually lead to biologically and culturally diseased societies.
I
see sacredness and deep religion coming from seeking to understand
how life can become best synchronized with the process of evolution,
and help it along. Those who believe in the complete randomness of
evolution, the majority of scientists, often make dismissive
comments regarding any kind of direction to evolution, usually in
footnotes to show its unimportance to the text, but then the
footnote’s are often emotional and long, protesting too much. I
find the arguments that evolution is “non-purposive” and random
as closed as the religious arguments denying evolution, information
is lacking in both arguments.
I
see evolution moving inevitably in a pattern, even though it has its
random elements, and the pattern has a discernible direction, in
spite of instances of stagnation and retreat, toward “higher and
higher more effective living forms.” The goal of evolving to
Godhood need not deprive us of either science or religion. The internal activation of life moves life toward evolving toward
higher and higher forms and eventually to Godhood, shaped by outside natural selection and inside evolution. This may be a bit further than these men want to go,
but we need to go there. I think such a drive and direction will one day be
acknowledged by science and religion.
This
all suggests that if real kin and ethnic-centered human nature is
allowed to be what it is, it naturally leads to regionalism,
localism, ethnostates, and finally an ethnopluralism of ethnostates.
For example, in the U. S. this could be accomplished not by way of
radical revolution but through conservatively adapting---not overturning---the U.S.
constitutional separation of powers and states, with ethnostates
protected from marauding imperialists, supremacists, and global money
grubbers, by a light federalism.
