The difference is, that those of us who lived in the 1980’s and 1990’s knew that we were living the best of times – perhaps the best times ever to have lived. San Fran in the 2000s, Seattle in the 1990s, Paris on the 1920’s, Germany in the 1900’s, London in the 1890’s.
2008 was the end of the keynesian experiment. It was the culmination of the attack on western civilization started by the marxists, then the economic pseudoscientists, then the jewish socialists, then the french postmodernists.
The West spent from at least 1500bc to the present developing rule of law. The bronze age collapse set us back 1000 years. The abrahamic (jewish/christian/muslim) dark age set us back 1000 years. The second abrahamic dark age ( pseudohistory, pseudoscience, pseudo rationalism) is about to set us back another thousand.

“WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TRIBE AND CLAN?”— Kinship groups form in hie
—“WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TRIBE AND CLAN?”—
Kinship groups form in hierarchies under all human means of production:
|MEANS OF PRODUCTION|: hunting and gathering > pastoralism > agrarianism > urbanism(crafts) > industrialism > consumer-capitalism > (? automated production ?)
The reasons for hierarchies are:
(a) kin selection instinct (necessity) provides ‘insurance’.
(b) lower risk and lower friction of trade across common norms traditions, status signals, and ‘laws’,
(c) cheaper status signals in group than across group – except at the margins.
(d) elites always evolve and ‘carry’ middle, working, and underclasses by providing group competitive advantage.
This is why people live in, develop friendships in, work in, mate and marry in, and politically organize in, and compete in, racial, national, tribal, and clan groups worldwide with crossovers fairly limited (currently < 15%).
|KINSHIP TAXONOMY|: Individual > Family(Various Forms) > Clan > Tribe > Nation > Race > Homo-sapiens-sapiens.
Family structure is generally dependent upon inheritance structures, and inheritance structures dependent on means of production, and dependent upon the assets (“property”) that are required for intergenerational persistence, and dependent upon the intergenerational transfer (subsidy of children, and elderly).
So families follow a progression:
|FAMILY TAXONOMY|: Consanguineous > Panaluan > Pairing (Serial Marriage) > Hetaeristic Monogamy (Marriage with ‘cheating’) > Traditional Family > STEM family (Authoritarian) > Nuclear > Absolute Nuclear > Post-Family, “Single Parent Family”, “Non-Family” or “State Family”.
(You will probably need to Google some of these terms.)
As far as I know humans have generally produced serial marriage whenever possible, and deviated from serial marriage only when necessary – just as humans will steal whenever possible, and deviated from stealing only when necessary. Hence why we produce norms (what to do), traditions(what to do), and laws (what not to do), and institutions (intergenerational persistence of these habits.)
Humans seek loss avoidance at all times, and seek advantage (gain) wherever loss avoidance can be overcome. This applies to status signals (opportunity), security (risk reduction), and property (assets).
NOW, WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TRIBE AND A CLAN?
We tend to use tribes for less advanced (hunter-gatherer and pastoralist) societies with less property, and clan in more advanced (agrarian and industrial) societies. The reason being that tribal differences are suppressed by the cooperation necessary under agrarian production, even if the value of clans diminishes.

How Can We Retain Our Culture?
Revolt. Separate. Prosper. Speciate.
Really, that’s the answer.The value of the continent-wide american empire, has outlived its usefulness, and at least for the past 70 years, has been destructive to our civilization.
Therefore, it’s in our interest to divorce ourselves and let the ‘nine nations of north america’ prosper as they choose – not as others choose for them.

YOUR ANCESTORS Smith = English (Occupation) cum most common ‘adopted name’. Part
YOUR ANCESTORS
Smith = English (Occupation) cum most common ‘adopted name’. Particularly for those wishing to hide their identity.
Also, metalworking was
Jones = Welsh (from John) At one point Jones was the welsh surname equivalent of the most common muslim given name.
Normal Names = The reason those of us with Norman names are identifiable is that (a) the practice of surnames had begun by 1000 and the norman invasion (sorry, it was bad) because credit title, and records at scale require surnames. (b) anglicized french names are generally from place names, and phonologically different from anglo saxon place and occupation names.
WORSHIP YOUR ANCESTORS – BACK TO THE BEGINNING.
You are the accumulation of their efforts, their character, and their choices.
You literally carry pieces of them in your genes.
