Can we reeducate the educated classes?


There has been an astonishing reversal or trans-valuation of the educated classes in America and the West, especially in the study of human society and culture, or the humanities. President Trump's “deplorables”---as the obnoxiously condescending Hillary Clinton called them---understand human society and culture far better than the so-called educated classes, whose belief in political correctness and cultural Marxism, which they learned in our colleges universities and in the media, is complete nonsense.

Across history and across the world human nature is biologically and genetically kin and ethnic centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual, marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, territorial, and even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other conservative things, with group-selection as the primary unit of successful selection, followed by individual selection; this social behavior is the opposite of what our so-called educated classes believe.

President Trump could be even more political incorrect than he is in his pronouncements against postmodernism, Marxism, feminism, multiculturalism, LGBT activists etc etc. But would it reeducate the educated classes? I doubt it, the propaganda and brainwashing has been too deep.

Reason and common sense suggest that real human nature and the mostly biological origin of our social behavior lead naturally to regionalism, localism, and eventully to an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, protected by a defensive federalism. Given who we are this appears to be the best way all of us, all classes and ethnic groups, can optimize the gene expression we inherited from our human ancestors.
