Revisionism, Reactionism and the ACP Part VI
Let's start some new discussions and meet some new friends.
A Series of Polyphasic Naps
Let’s paint a picture of the American Dream together. This will help us understand the Conservative alternative to Progressivism. We will be as inclusive as possible, while allowing for what passes for “reasonable” conservative policy because the people who produce for us the image of this dream very much include the same.
We aspire to a level of comfort exemplified by the atom; a family unit, around which all the rest of society orbit. This family is Biblically defined as brought forth to this country by people known to so wildly mis-interpret scripture as to have been largely evicted from England by the same church formed to allow the king to step out on his wife. This aspiration cannot be judged as morally correct or not as it is not a moral question, but one of nature. In the same way that a human scratching an itch is not in itself wrong, seeking solace and constancy is simply part of our animal nature, separate and distinct from the fictional area of human nature that allegedly subrogates society’s movement toward brighter futures. In this way, the Conservative mindset comes into focus for the doctrinaire progressive.
America has, as a singular body, developed an image of our country that attempts to simultaneously shore up legitimacy and correct the failures of the past by simply performing the maximum version of it. Coupled with our shared human conditioning to seek lasting comfort, it becomes obvious how your previously level-headed, but constantly “economically anxious” uncle went from loudly wondering why so much was deducted from his paycheck to straight-up publicly defending pedophilia. We do not approve of it. We simply understand it.
Our understanding and disapproval must still interact with these people, so we must work out how to talk with them in such a way as to bring them back to correct ways of thinking and finally to conclude with us that the American experiment as conducted by Reformation era tax-dodgers is finally prepared to mature into the bastion of freedom and equality that they pretended to build initially.
Let us now drift into our dream, or for clarity, 2 dreams. We’ll examine together the ideal life of an American boy and an American girl. Follow them throughout their lives and see if we can discover together how we can ourselves hew closer to that ideal line or if the line should be erased in favor of better line-work.
Our little hero is conceived late summer or early fall and for 38 weeks, gestates within Mom, getting ready to come see what we’ve done with the world (we’ve done… a lot).
His social conditioning, the first education, begins long before birth with ~60% of parents opting to learn the baby’s sex before birth. This begins the process of color coding and socializing the new guy into the culture. He will shortly come to one of the first things we learn about ourselves in relation to the world, some people are boys, others are girls. Of course we know that there are more categories of sex and even more for gender expression, but babies are stupid. They don’t understand this. Over the period between birth and starting school, the child learns to walk (well, toddle), talk (well, babble) and navigate at a basic level. This new measure of independence is where socialization really takes place and we already need more space to discuss it.
