None of you stupid faggots even know what you mean when you say “Conservative”.

Conservatism failed because of urbanisation. People no longer live on farms in such great numbers. It was destined to fail due to industrialisation, urbanisation, and city planning that could sustain millions of people. Peasants ditching farm tools to work in factories.

Pretty much this. I don’t think it’s even fair to say a “conservative” movement exists anywhere in the west that isn’t an irrelevant freakshow. I feel like it stopped being a thing after 1914 but definitely after 1930. Really fascism became conservatism 2.0.

No, fuck off. Things change, people use these terms regardless of their initial definition. That's how language works.

The right in america refer to their leftist opposition as liberals, but the textbooks would say they're both liberals. But obviously they aren't the same, one is different than the - maybe not objectively left and right, but in it's smaller varied degrees it is still left vs right, and the right choose to label themselves conservatives and the left as liberals and progressives.

Regardless of how you see it, this is how the world is entrenching itself and these are the principles that are being acted upon in the world's biggest western nation. That has impact.

This is what reactionaries should have done in America.

Polygamy was always taboo in the OT. Lamech, the grandson of Cain, was the first to commit this sin. Abram had one wife and banished his handmaid when he knocked her up instead of taking her as a second bride. Jacob only had multiple brides because he wanted to marry his first wife's younger sister but had to marry the older one first. Solomon was rebuked by God for his blatant polygamy and David brought a plague over his people by marrying one of his captain's wives. I could go on but the point is that God allows for a lot of sin in the OT because He understands that humans are flawed. In the NT, which is specifically Christian, Paul clearly outlines the monogamous family structure of the faith in his epistles. Only mormons and muslims still practice that sinful act to this day and even then it's not as common as you might think.

There is no group of puppet masters that are dictating reality, we all just conform to it the reality we are in. "Neoliberal corporations" supply needs and wants, this creates wealth for everyone. If theres no need or want, they dissolve. There is no alternative system that doesn't have us all working on farms for 12 hours a day and still starving of malnutrition.

I don't know what you think the argument for the existence of "white people" (however you define that) is, but I am fairly confident it is baseless. For one, there is no evidence of a white people dying out, or experiencing any sort of extermination.

Even still, of course you can express it. You have that freedom. You won't be arrested or anything, assuming you live in America. But everyone else possess the freedom to criticize, fire, or socially ostracize you. That is their freedom.

What you are arguing for is a set of laws where there are in-groups, whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups, whom the law binds but does not protect.

You're ignoring the other side of that coin, which is that technology and liberalism move so fast that profound changes are made before their long-term consequences can be appreciated and/or adapted to. There needs to be a force of restraint which keeps us grounded in time-tested social formulae until we understand what changing/discarding them really means for our existence.

In my estimation, -only- a philosophy which restrains and subordinates the forces of social/economic/technological 'progress' to higher values can facilitate such a maximization.

It's hard to argue against what you said because you don't really have a point to begin with. I'll try and take it piece by piece.

>"You say that there are no puppet masters dictating reality, but then move on to.."

Nothing you said following contradicted the first point, that there are no puppet masters.

>"..deserve to be ostracized and destroyed by a corporate system.."

I didn't say deserve, I just said that's people excercising their freedom.

>"a corporate system which is predicated upon keeping humanity reliant on a ceaselessly expanding urban dystopia"

Humanity is reliant on food and shelter, whether an economic system supplies it or people somehow manage it themselves. Quality of life has never been higher, so I wouldn't call it a dystopia. I also don't think it is ceaselessly expanding. It is necessary to expand until poverty is alleviated and everyone achieves a basic standard of living, then the economy will transition. Read the literature on 'Circular Economy'.

>slowly killing our humanity under the guise of "freedom"

How is humanity slowly being killed exactly?

>"You have defined the in-group as the neoliberal puppetmasters"

No I didn't. In my view there is no "in or out" groups. I guess you could say people who subscribe to the dominant culture are the "in-group", but there's no clear boundaries.

>"and have given them complete authority to cement their power and narrative control over the masse"

Not really. There's many "narratives" which either more or less closely align with the truth. I don't know what the "Neoliberal narrative" is (I'm assuming again you're referring to the dominant culture), but it pretty closely tracks reality. Not all "narratives" are equally valid. You have some peddled by, say, right-wing media, which are completely detached from reality, and you others that are more less the accurate way of seeing our collective history and circumstances. At this point and time, Liberals have a complete monopoly on objective truth.

Conservatism, as we have long discussed, is dead. Though perhaps it doesn’t seem that way, because its corpse is seen ambling about with a caring look on its decomposing face.

I do not speak of neoconservativism, which was always colonial progressivism, which spoke the conservative dialect, but only as a mechanism to gather more arms for its side. With the rise of Trump, neoconservatives threw off the mask and have rejoined their comrades.

Let’s instead look at a small slice of applied conservatism. Actually, two such slices, since they reinforce one another.

Trump recently appointed Richard Grenell as acting director of national intelligence. He was up til then the Ambassador for Germany. Grenell is open about his preference for sodomy, and as reported by the NYT, he was the one leading the “global push to decriminalize homosexuality.”

This in itself is neither here nor there, except to show Trump is in the conservative camp, at least partially. The real example is in this tweet about Grenell by Guy Benson, who identifies as a conservative journalist.

The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah was also “historic & significant.”

Benson, like Grenell, favors sodomy, which, as tradition has it, is a most vile sin that cries out to Heaven for justice. Benson is also under the delusion that he is married to a man.

Conservativism therefore isn’t aligned with tradition.

Now the second slice, this time from another self-identifying conservative, who has a piece in the Washington Examiner about a celebrity who is touting his child (the celebrity’s child) as a “transgender”.

>> No.18280568

Because conservatism drives the speed limit. Its just slower progressivism

>> No.18280581

A transgender is a person everybody knows is pretending to be or is delusional enough to believe he or she is the opposite sex. To say transgender woman of a person instead of just woman is to acknowledge the truth. If people really believed a transgender woman was a woman, they would not use the prefix.

This is effeminacy, a characteristic trait of zombie conservatism. Of course the father should have reacted with hate: hate the sin, hate the loss of sanity in his child, hate the culture that supports the lie. The father should in no way countenance the lie. If the child is truly delusional, then get the child help.

As an aside, we can ask: help from whom? Therapists? Recall the “recovered memory” panic of the late 1990s, a panic that led to jailings, loss of families, heartbreak, all because of idiot therapists who entertained the asinine theory that people can “recover” memories. The memories were always of a terrible nature, of course. And it’s now those same therapists driving tranny madness.

Internally identified? Skip that, and focus instead on Polumbo’s implict acceptance that older people can be “transgender”, or even can be “gay”, as if these were different kinds of creatures. People are similar to normal human beings, but have a different essence or nature, that difference in being “transgender” or “gay” is just like difference between male and female.

Polumbo—and Benson, too—thus has lost the argument. He is a progressive. He does not disagree with any progressive idea, he only quibbles about timing, about when a person’s madness becomes real.

That thing that unites Benson and Polumbo, and conservatives in general, is that they have bought the progressive idea that truth can only be known by appealing to the masses. They don’t see, as reactionaries or neo-reactionaries do, that human nature is fixed and not fluid, that human nature cannot be legislated away.

This crisis, like all crises, is spiritual. Conservatives don’t see that. Reactionaries do. This is why conservativism fails, and will continue to fail. It accepts the same basic premises as progressivism.

conservatives in the west have failed to conserve anything over the last 50 years. they compromise and then are told that compromise isn’t enough 20 years later because there is this implicit assumption that history moves leftward and what was once an ok compromise is now not enough by virtue of time alone. In actuality that original compromise allowed things to continue in that direction in the first place which is a self fufilling prophesy. this isn’t helped by the fact that most conservatives in power (especially the GOP) have no actual incentive to fight to maintain traditional conservative principles because they conflated capitalism and the economy with conservativism when the goldwater republicans took over.
America has no traditional conservative party, it has a market liberal party which directly traces its lineage to 19th century liberalism and a more mixed economy party that has a leftist, radical element which it uses as an attack dog and tool to shape culture and discourse to its benefit but doesn’t actually give any power.

I will never understand conservatives who think they've lost or liberals/leftists who think they've won. All the modern conservative needs to do is sit back, relax, and watch global warming/climate change do all the work for them. There can be no globalism if the delicate network of goods which it is built on top of collapses. There can be no social media if the electrical grid is unstable and frequently turned off for fears of fire risk. There can be no transgenderism if medical supply chains collapse and the complex set of hormones, surgery and medical expertise needed for those treatments becomes unavailable. To survive, liberalism will need to solve the greatest crisis in human history, while conservatives can just let it happen. So to me, "blackpilled" conservatives are morons. They should be thrilled, it's the rest of us who are in deep water.

Here we go. Typical conservative. Capitalism demands equality. So it can exploits everybody the same, pressure labor prices down. Also, Capitalism like equality, because a King, or a Lord, has power independantly of money. Thus, the Capital has to abolish nobility, which it did, and abolish kingship, because the king is powerful even if he doesn't have Capital. An other solution is to make the king part of the Capitalist elite, that's what happened with the english royal family. These people are only king and queen in name. In reality, they are Capitalist.

I actually agree with the other guy.
Equality is delusional, people are not equal and by insisting that they are everybody is saddled with the same responsibilities. Why should everyone contribute equally, when some have more than others?
The bottom 50% of earners SHOULDN'T contribute 50% of taxes. Rather, the top 10% of earners should bear 90% of the tax burden.
The strong have an obligation to protect the weak, which in Capitalism translates to the obligation of the rich to subsidize the unproductive lifestyles of the poor.
By promoting equality, you are absolving the strong from any responsibility, leaving the weak to fend for themselves.
Hence I'm firmly opposed to it.

Capitalism has already chosen. It's favorite political State is the republic. I mean, isn't it obvious? Almost all countries in the world have adopted the republic, and those who
still haven't are shitholes.
Again, it's easy why Capitalism has chosen the republic: the republic is perfect for Capitalists to buy laws. A few millions dollars in members of parliament pockets, and here you go. You have your law. A Fuhrer, autocrat, King, cannot be bought that easily, and that's why Capitalism tend to overthrow those, and replace them by a republic.

I don't promote equality. Marx himself wasn't a believer of equality. It's plainly written if you read Critique of the Gotha program, Chapter I.
However, Capitalism promotes equality, Have you ever wondered why Capitalism pay every wage slave factory worker the same? It's not logic, because those wage slaves aren't equal. There necessarily must be some who work harder, faster than other. But Capitalism consider that every factory wage worker, has the same wage. It suits Capitalism very well, because it spare Capitalism to make differences, and pay the better worker more. So for Capitalism, even worker get minimum wage. More profit.

It's just a natural way of thinking. You can't expect women, children, the crippled, the sick, the old and the infirm to work as hard as able-bodied young men now can we?
Equality likes to pretend that everyone is born with the same mental and physical capacities when this is simply not true. Those that have been blessed by nature should put their talents to use, otherwise they go to waste.
Equality makes demands that only a fraction can meet, leaving everyone else to fend for themselves.
It's only logical that the strong and capable push harder than everyone else, otherwise society falls apart.

Yes and who demanded the concentration of Capital and power, faggots? The migrants? Women? The socialists (I'm not even a socialist, i'm for money abolition)? No. Those who demanded this fusion in the money creation, as well as in big oil, big pharma, military complex, Monsanto, as nothing else than... the Capitalists. How can you create a free market, if the rich will always want to fuse their interests, in order to be more efficient? Stop living in a fantasy world. I also fantasized in a free city world, with independant rich free cities. The thing is, it doesn't work like that, and Capitalists will concentrate into quasi monopolies, controlling the market, and then also using the State as their tool to control the population.

Capitalists are the ultimate gatekeepers of the Capitalistic mode of production. When shit hit the fan, and society crumbles, Capitalism use them, as a last joker, in order to bring back order.
