The most humane solution to our deepening identity crisis
As
people get more desperate they call for more radical political
solutions. But that desperation does not necessitate radical
political behavior on the right (fascism) or the left (communism)
even though people increasingly long for law and order, moral
clarity, and a familiar homogeneous culture.
Conservative
traditions built up over centuries can't be overlooked because they
helped us survive and prosper. But when real human nature is
included in the diagnosis for a solution to the increasing divisions
in America, that is, when it is understood that real human nature
remains
genetically and biologically kin-centered, gender defined,
heterosexual, marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even
xenophobic, and religious-making, among other things, with
group-selection as the primary unit of successful selection, then we
can see that conservative traditions largely missed the biological
origin of social behavior, and that lack is mainly responsible for
the now violent divisions in America.
The conservative reaction to
identity or ethnic oriented politics has been to see it as part of
the evil side of human nature which must be suppressed in favor of a
universal human nature under God. But race, gender,
religion, and sexual orientation tend to eventually conform to the
real human nature reflected in “identity politics,” which is why the “Alt-right” came
to be. But the Alt-right tends to seek radical political solutions
in answer to the people increasingly longing for law and order, moral
clarity, and a familiar homogeneous culture.
A
true natural rights or civil rights movement would promote an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates for all groups, black, white, brown,
yellow, or red, with each ethnostate protected from marauding
imperialists, global businesses, supremacists, Marxists, etc., and
defended by a defensive federalism. An ethnopluralism of ethnostates
could be established, legally, in the United States with our
constitutional separation of powers and states. That is the most
humane
solution to our deepening identity crisis.
