I’m generally grim on the prospect of left-right cooperation, beyond cross-stimulation, but there’s one very clear and important exception — Secession. Ideological sorting on an ideological basis should be eagerly seized upon by anyone who’s at all serious about the practicality of their proposals, which makes it something of a sincerity litmus test.

It all seems consistent with Amy Chua's World on Fire thesis to me. (That's a book with which to twist open some important NR fault-lines, btw.)

Ah, yes. I reserve my poetry for the role of ‘discovery'; my prose does the opposite and intentionally so, unless there is some particular circumstance demanding polemic. This is why I am not an essayist, but I have always been an amateur diplomat.

@RiverC There is no communication problem. We're communicating alright to the MSM. We're communicating horror -- we're a major symptom of the systematic failure of progressivism. Remember, you can try to persuade xor discover.

no principle is self-sufficient, just so with life merely for life.

if we are to take the proposition seriously (and not as rationalization), does this not mean the ideal society is infact the factory farm? should we not concentrate humanity into industrial processing lines, that we may more effectively maximize the number of living people possible? and since we cant keep every thing everywhere ‘alive’ forever and ever, does this not then leave us back again with the gnostic progressive conceit of the fundamental ‘wickedness’ of being?

never mind that defining the ‘people’ we must help ‘survive’ is itself tangled in value judgment by necessity, and hence its intelligibility reliant on its relation to a transcendent ideal, without which the word becomes inchoate (and which the more effective/authentic/righteous pursual thereof may or may not actually involve human factory farms [or survival over all]).

is not survival the only objective moral good?, The only purpose to this planets to life that we can be sure of? Our nay all DNA has hierarchical strategies unconscious reason to ensure this ,And the Cathedral works against these almost uniformly, This then we can be sure is evil. while leftists destroy Christianity with reason The reason of the right I might add,while forbidding its use against itself they do not even kid themselves they have been hoisted by their own petard.But I know my own survival is the highest right albeit subjectively at first, but also as my duty to the collective to try my might against theirs.This is all I owe my brother a good fight, and in the event I survive acknowledgement he played a part in the struggle he carried his burden to the reckoning.

if one presupposes that (french) enlightenment values and ideals are the whole of value and idealism, then when faced with its poverty, certainly a sort of of auto-negating nihilism is the easiest way out of the system, from within the system.

it is for this reason that i think the best introduction for any good class on ethnics in the west at this point in time, is max stirner. he is highly expedient for exposing merely validation based rationalizations, and getting people to think more authentically (iow, righteously) about what they think they want (of all the other young hegellians, he had the most impact on marxes development, who tried [and failed i should think] to account for him in his works).

@Ex-pat in Oz. Cool, you won't regret it.
