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.
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.
Hey, give the chronically worthless some credit. It doesn't speak for them either.
You can keep making those empty threats, but who would you leech off if you got rid of us? 🤣
I did. I wanted them to really make the cuts, to show the world what happens if you finally say no to the fetishists having kids they can't afford and making the taxpayer foot the bill. In the end though, Milei did it, and look what happened. He managed to create a budget surplus and stabilize the most broken economy in the world!
I knew it wasn't going to happen under Elon Cuck, the biggest welfare parasite the world will ever see. Worth $300B despite nearly all his income being from the state.
What threat? You're an atheist, no matter what you're going to die a meaningless and undignified death. I'm just guessing as to the particulars.
You aren't part of us. You have no people and no country and you speak for nobody. Least of all men.
You always run away from the actual debate when you have no answers.
I'll reiterate, if America wants to cut the deficit, the buck stops at "family support".
You and our worse half are the biggest parasites. Everything else both groups say is deflection of that fact. A country run for the benefit of the taxpayer would support the single and childless, because we pay the bills.
