Call this a pet theory. I’ve been wondering how boomers inherited pure Americana, yet turned into this majority that despised their own children and country, rebelling against their namesake. We already know Fabian socialism was fighting a quiet war over government control since right before the world wars, that the churches were being indoctrinated by Zionism during the same time frame.
What isn’t quite as clear is how the boomers became quasi hedonist/ nihilists which only solidified over time. There’s multiple facets you could point to like the sexual “revolution”, drug use, hippy culture, etc. these however don’t explain NeoConservatism which was/is overwhelmingly supported by Boomers, or how community disappeared overnight during the boomers reign as adults.
I would argue something different, the fallout of communism/ socialism in America created a fallout from tribalism/ community as a second order effect. “Rugged individualism” became nihilistic individualism which neocons embraced in totality, “you are only responsible for yourself, heritage means nothing, blah blah bootstraps”. This was/is the defining creed of the boomer “right”. This is where the “propositional nation” and “creedal nation” nonsense comes from. This is also why the left and right were nearly indistinguishable on immigration where H1Bs and illegal amnesty were actual neocon babies. (Reagan said he would grant amnesty years before the bill and “dem betrayal”, George Sr favored a second wave of amnesty, etc).
So you might think on the flip side of neocon boomers, the neoliberals, that if they were opposing force that they would be the “communal” party. Which is partly true, this is why leftists of the time created the NIMBY laws and why even today the wealthy left lives in overwhelmingly majority white gated neighborhoods. What the neoliberals would not do, however is support Americana, that was their great evil, and the best way to destroy it was “diversity”/ multiculturalism. It is societal nihilism versus individual nihilism.
This also supports why both the boomer left and right despises Nazis in totality and was their unifier. The neocon right sees Nazis as racial socialists, which is in opposition their founding myth of nihilistic individualism. The neoliberal left sees Nazis as racial nationalists, which is in opposition to their founding myth of societal nihilism.
Oh it's quite simple.
Buckley was a plant. He was the Ben Shapiro of his time. Any kind of secular philosophy is of the left regardless of what it purports to be. Once the whites of the country were hoodwinked by the false idea that the right is comprised of ideological "principles" and not anything morally concrete, they surrendered the future.
Fuck off Christcuck.
Case in point. Exhibit A for why atheism should be illegal.
So thought crime is an acceptable legal framework just so long as it aligns with beliefs you already hold, huh? Get the fuck out of here with that stance. Find a better solution.
Why wouldn't it be? We're a bare fraction from state mandated atheism already. Secularism is a proven failure. It's time for that experiment to end and for it's adherents to be punished.
Didn't you have enough of being schooled last time we spoke, welfare trash? Bow down to your childless superiors, because if it wasn't for us, you'd be starving in the streets.
You will treat us with respect or you will get nothing.
You want to know why I believed in MAGA? I thought they'd finally acknowledge who pays the bills in Western democracies and cut the endless parasitism of the reckless breeders who care more about their fetish for having more kids than about not being a burden on the state.
You will never get respect from real men because you don't deserve it.
Not now, not ever, not even after you're pushed into a shallow grave by a bulldozer.
You never did. You're a lying, self serving, deluded nihilist with no morals.
You are not part of we. You don't contribute to society and you have no place to criticize the people who do. You speak for no one but the chronically worthless.
