Carlson is mistaken in defining identity politics

 It used to be that liberals fell all over themselves accusing conservatives of being racist. Now it is conservative's like Tucker Carlson denouncing liberals as being racist and even as eugenicists, because the CDC's Vaccine Advisory Committee approved recommendations from a doctor, Kathleen Dooling. who said that more lives would be saved if the elderly receive priority access to the vaccine, but that: "Racial and ethnic minority groups [are] under-represented among adults" age 65 and older. Therefore, the elderly should not be a top priority, race should be. Harald Schmidt advised the CDC: "Older populations are whiter. Society is structured in a way that enables them to live longer. Instead of giving additional health benefits to those who already have more of them, we can start to level the playing field a bit."

Carlson is also upset by the Black Lives Matter movement which is really a black racist moment supported by clueless white liberals. Carlson passionately insists that race has nothing to do with defining the nation. Carlson is mistaken in defining identity politics. The neo-Darwinist science of sociobiology has courageously defined the biological origin of social behavior which has been ignored by both modern liberals and conservatives in defining nations.  

According to various dictionaries "nation" is nacion (old French) birth, descendants, relatives, from Latin nationem, natio, breed, stock, race of people, tribe, from PIE root *gene, referring to procreation, familial and tribal groups. Ethnic groups of hereditary altruists formed ethnic groups so cooperative and well-organized as to out-compete non-altruist groups. Ethnocentric groups are more likely to win the battle of group selection. Real human nature is ethnocentric, not with one group overall superior or inferior but with different talents, never equal, because for many thousands of years right up to our present time group selection, or ethnic altruism, was the best way to be successful in survival and reproduction.

Defining cultures by creed or ideas alone with such unreal ideas as egalitarianism is not enough to offset the reality that multicultural multi-ethnic societies are a zero sum game where the gain of one ethnic group is offset by the loss of another ethnic group, with much cruel social discord in the process.

Although now just rising again, identity politics will continue to ascend, identifying with ethnicity, nationality, race, culture and faith is the world's future. People will see that diversity within the same state is not our greatest strength but is our weakness. 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., with a defensive federalism. An ethnopluralism of ethnostates could be established, legally, in the United States with our constitutional separation of powers and states.
