Why I accept Nietzsche's advice to quit grumbling and accept my fate


I've made big changes in my philosophy through the years, not with 10,000 people watching, more like a few hundred people watching, and the changes looked like being inconsistent in principles, or at variance with stability. It seems better to people if you can remain the same all through your life or make changes right in line with your past work.

But I wasn't lucky enough to be raised with a philosophy I could maintain all my life. And maybe because of that I developed a distrust of intellectual authority, which had both good and bad consequences in my life. The good was the creative independence I had in developing my philosophy, the bad was burning all my bridges so others could not easily follow me, or me them.

I developed at least five new religious philosophies before I arrived at my present philosophy, which is lasting. I began with rejecting Christianity and developing several new versions of paganism. Then over time, influenced by both conservation and sociobiology, I developed Evolutionary Catholicism. And finally after much study and thinking I developed theological materialism and the projected Theoevolutionary Church.

Each time, with each change, I sent my work to people who couldn't follow my changes over the years or who still think I have the same past views---even my family, which bothers me. Those who follow me now are mostly new people.

But I know I wouldn't be who I am today and I wouldn't have developed my present philosophy if my life had gone any other way. So, as best I can I accept Nietzsche's advice, which he got from the Greeks, to quit grumbling (as I have just done) and accept my fate.

A “nation” is really an ethnostate

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.   

The Founders of the U. S. seemed to have assumed that the America would be a nation of English immigrants, or at least Northern Europeans; apparently they instinctively knew that was the most natural way to assimilate into a new nation. And so America was for a time a real “nation” (at the expense of the Native American “Indians”). But over time due to plain ignorance, and later due to ideological mumbo jumbo, as well as various diverse racial wills to power, the U. S. became a multicultural, multi-ethnic, multi-racial empire, and no-longer a "nation."

America became instead a motley polyglot empire of competing ethnic groups, each with their own genetic traits, their own cultural behavior, and their own agendas. The Establishment encouraged this motley polyglot population and made strong attempts to remove the instincts of ethnic identity, without much success, as social disruptions from ethnic conflicts have increased. 
 
The Constitutional separation of powers and states was mainly meant to keep one power from imperially ruling everyone else, as the English kings did, who the Founder's escaped from. Wouldn't it have been prescient of the Founders if they had foreseen that the states could become ethnostates as regions to calm the inevitable future battles between naturally competing ethnic groups, as the result of stupid immigration policies? 

That can still be done. Our federalism could protect an ethnopluralism of ethnostates from marauding imperialists and supremacists. We can save the US from the fate of all empires by working within the system to transform it, as mentioned here yesterday.

Why we need to work within the system to transform it


When I think how rapidly the left “marched thorough the institutions,” as Gramsci called it, from the 1960's to today, transforming America and the West from a generally traditional conservative culture to a hedonistic, abortion-loving, drug-taking, sex changing, white-hating, leftist culture, in a very short time, it gives me hope that a countermarch thorough the institutions can take place.

Then comes the sobering realization that the very fast moving leftist march to destroy traditional conservative culture had the media, the schools, and politicians, and even the church on their side, and of course big business could care less about anything but making money. Damn! The paleoconservatives have nothing like that kind of support, and the deeply-conservative movement toward an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, which I support, has far less approval.

And it's stunning to realize that the left “marched thorough the institutions” pushing a social philosophy that has virtually no connection to real human nature, which remains as it has always been, kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual, marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of successful selection, followed by individual selection.

That should give us hope. But the radicals don't think so, they look at the support the left had/has and they say forget it, how can we work within that overwhelmingly dominant system? I know the feeling, I used to think that way too. But the left asked the same question back before they launched their cultural destruction, and most of them worked within the system---the radicals were arrested or killed.

So we need to work within the system to transform it. I believe ethnostates are the best political configuration for humans beings to live within, given real human nature. An ethnopluralism of ethnostates or regions could be established, legally, in the United States by way of our constitutional separation of powers and states, protected by federalism. It may require a few constitutional amendments to give more power to the states, and it will not be easy at all, but it is far preferable to radical Marxism or Fascism, or the degenerate political left we have today, which has brought us civil disruptions, even civil war, and a hedonistic, abortion-loving, drug-taking, sex changing, white-hating, leftist culture, within unworkable multicultural (multi-ethnic) societies.
