Real leadership is moral leadership: Political morality in harmony with real human nature and human nature in harmony with political morality

I think it was a Marine Corps defense leader who said that morality is the main source of real leadership decisions. Real leadership is moral leadership. "Style" comes in how you present your moral decisions. That applies to the leader of a Marine Corps platoon all the way to the president. Maybe its inherent, or best instilled early in life.

Traditionally, religion, culture, and education helped develop the morality with which leaders would later make decisions. But we have been dominated by postmodernism in our cultural institutions which teach a relativity of all values. Demagogues tend to be all show seeking selfish power by simulating morality.

We now have libertarian capitalists and non-judgmental progressive liberals as leaders, and both have no real morality other than believing in a relativity of values, therefore they offer no real moral leadership. The moral relativity of so-called high-culture elites is copied by the moral relativity of pop culture, and then promoted by a powerful and corrupt Media, which has its own selfish agenda.

Unlike many conservatives I don't see the individualism of libertarianism as the best way to counter the hedonism and the degeneracy of all standards in the West. Ethics and morals have always been created by the group ethics of mutual love and self-sacrifice, not by individualism. Human nature has been and remains genetically ethnocentric, even xenophobic, as well as being kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making, hierarchical, with group-selection as the primary unit of selection, followed by individual-selection.

Decentralization is the best moral political solution I see, small separate states, or ethnostates, with their independence protected by a defensive federalism. Powerful men as well as the unpowerful need to see that it is in their own best interest to support and protect a decentralized world where hedonism and the degeneracy of all standards can be better prevented.

An ethnopluralism of ethnostates could be established in America largely within the traditional American cultural framework of our separation of powers and states. We need to honor the biological origin of social behavior and advocate the creation of an ethnopluralism of ethnostates for all groups, black, white, brown, yellow, or red. That is political morality in harmony with real human nature and human nature in harmony with political morality.
