—“As a conservative, would you prefer a hypothetical effeminate capitalist society or a hypothetical masculine socialist society?”— Hmmm…. Socialism(equality) is the result of the female reproductive strategy, and capitalism(markets) is the result of a young (ascendent) male reproductive strategy, and classical liberalism(hierarchy) is the result of the established male reproductive strategy, and authoritarianism (command) regardless of redistributive, market, or extractive, is the result of dominant male reproductive strategy. As far as I know fascism has won the postwar competition as the means of rule, and markets as the means of production, and redistribution as the means of gaining the publics permission to rule. All nations of any scale are now fascists (intolerant) mixed economies, with minor variations in corruption and liberty.
