IN AN HEROIC MYTHOS…

the loss of community participation caused by the state conquest of previously voluntary institutions, and the loss of the nuclear family, and the lack of scarcity for labor caused by immigration has left the men in the middle without the vehicle for obtaining status signals.

It is unlikely that without supporting access to status signals, these men will retain their affectation and pursuit of heroic signals in the face of futility.

Instead they will adopt resignatory urban metrosexuality, mediterranean and middle eastern bravado, and technological entertainment escapism. Others will check out of society and simply live de minimus lives. Others will try, fail, become enslaved to child support, and perpetual poverty in their maturity.

They will degenerate into this state until either the culture of abandonment becomes pervasive or they find some idea around which to organize.

The dream is still sufficiently familiar that drop outs do not consider themselves a class with common interests and goals.
