@Astinsan@genophilia The correct understanding is that ‘conservatives’ in general, and the alt right in specific, are not innovative, double down on past failures, are low information, over attribute competency, are defensive, reluctant to act, and reluctant to create or trust leaders who CAN act.
So all political groups have to innovate. The only question is WHAT they innovate.
Most of my work is an innovation – perhaps the only meaningful ‘conservative’ innovation since Darwin and the subsequent Eugenics movements. And it’s possible to innovate USING my work, precisely because I disambiguate what must remain, and what may change.
If you don’t know your group strategy (and no conservatives, alt right do – hell, no one does.). Then you can’t preserve it from internal undermining without authoritarianism that prevents innovation to stay ahead of competing innovators. So you lose either way without innovating.
So can we blame conservatives, libertarians, and the alt right for generations of repeated failure? Or do we blame ourselves for failing to produce elites that provided the knolwedge we need, in an innnovation that we need, in order to defeat the enemy … without defeating ourselves.
