Overemphasizing individualism
Individual
rights are important but they should not be inflated over group
rights, both biology and common sense tell us that the individual
cannot survive without the group, and the evolutionary sciences have
shown us that the group has been the primary unit of successful
selection.
Human
nature lines up well with biological or evolutionary conservatism,
not with the overemphasized Romantic individualism of Rousseau. Human
nature
evolved to be genetically
kin-centered
and ethnic-centered, even xenophobic, as well as being genetically
gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual, marriage-making,
hierarchical, and religious-making, with group-selection and ethnic
selection as the primary unit of successful selection, followed by
individual selection.
When
conservatives like Tucker Carlson attack “identity politics”
by overemphasizing individualism, they encourage the same selfish
narcissism in American culture and in the business world that has
been ruining us.
The
melting pot didn't melt and when that didn't work the American
mosaic, or pluralist society, took its place, but that didn't work
either and caused much social disorder, because human nature is
biological kin and ethnic centered and tends to want every group to
assimilate away its uniqueness except its own.
Clueless
modern liberals still promote both pluralist societies and universal
equality. Conservative's do the same but try to bring in a neutered
nationalism of creedal individualism rather than solid conservative
biological bonds.
We
need ethnostates for all ethnic groups or races in America, legally adapted
from our Constitutional separation of powers and states, and then
protected from marauding imperialists, supremacists, and global money
grubbers, with a defensive federalism---in line with both biology and
common sense.
