The West, in short, was Christendom. But Christendom died. If you live in the West now, you are living among its ruins. Many of them are still beautiful — intact cathedrals, Bach concertos — but they are ruins nonetheless. And when an old culture built around a sacred order dies, there will be lasting upheaval at every level of society, from the level of politics to the level of the soul. The shape of everything — family, work, moral attitudes, the very existence of morals at all, notions of good and evil, sexual mores, perspectives on everything from money to rest to work to nature to the body to kin to duty — all of it will be up for grabs. Welcome to 2021.

"tradcuckery built the West and other lies we get told to make us not hate their enablers."
You are literally retarded man. "Tradcucks" did build the West. Traditions get ensconced into society because they were useful.
You argue for the extinction of man because the modern world has forsaken tradition. Muh women are gonna ruin everything, but how dare you want to return to the time when they didn't have the right to vote, when their job was to support the family via homebuilding.
Most of humanity's greatest people didn't have an insignificant other.
No but the builders who built their houses did. The tailors who made their clothes did. The merchants who sold them their food did. So did the printers who copied their novels and treatises and the workmen who put their ideas into practice.
None of those great minds would have achieved anything without the physical and social infrastructure that enabled them to do so. That infrastructure is rooted in community, which in turn is rooted in religion and family.
Most men, who aren't geniuses, are motivated primarily by their desire to provide for their families. It's always been that way, and it always will be.
Not in the West you dunce.
You may not like tradcuckery, but it did build the West.
