I think if you just reduce all political analysis to “all people, all groups of people, create narratives to justify their evolutionary strategy, and that while truth is in everyone’s economic, technological, and medical interest, truthful speech is in a minority’s reproductive and political interest. It’s just that simple. We all just argue in favor of our reproductive interests. And the purpose of left wing thought and argument merely reflects their strategy: “meritocracy leaves us behind”.

THERE IS NO LOVE LIKE A BAND OF BROTHERS.
Jesus’s insight was that it was possible to extend the brotherly love of the legionaries to the weak and the powerless if he constructed an army of poor pastoralists against the romans, just as the romans had constructed an army of farmers, metalworkers, and traders against the poor pastoralists – forcing them to confront their weakness, the folly of their gods, the folly of their way of life, and the folly of their tribalism. But we must never mistake that christianity was originated, licensed, and imposed as a means of destroying western aristocracy, western myths, morals, ethics, and truth. and that we escaped it.
So, is there anything to be gained then from the single seed of christianity? If christianity is just a hodge-podge collection of ideas the purpose of which was to produce a mythos to compete with the cult of homer(Achilles), the cult of the Emperor(Sol Invictus/Sky Father), or the cult of Mithras(Sky Father)?
Well, yes. Because it produced a religion for women to balance the religion of men. A religion of submission to compete with a religion of dominance. For the first time he created a religion for all: the brotherhood of christian kin.
So is there anything in christianity for our men? Well, we can produce the cult of warriors for the family and the polity that includes our women and children. And we can mature into the cult of warriors. And we can mature into the cult of statesmen.
Women are all equal in their motherhood and keep one another ‘down’. Men are unequal, and form tribes in each caste, just as we form infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineers, and generals in life.
What can unite the masculine and the feminine without the extremes (failure) of each?
A judge of last resort (king), a jury of last resort (judiciary), a market for commons divided by interests (responsibility/ownership), and the natural law of sovereign warriors as the rules of cooperation. And the brotherhood of warriors and kinship of christianity – limited to kin relations.

THE EQUILIBRIUM OF CHURCH AND STATE
The beauty of Christianity. It’s all nothing but nonsense but the single grain of truth inside it, is enough to create the goods that result from it. Unfortunately, one cannot politicize christian ethics, morality, and mythology without producing a suicidal social order (as we have seen in the west). We too often forget that the church arose as a peer to the martial aristocracy and that the competition between the two – the more feminine church, over family, charity, and mythology, and the more masculine aristocracy, over property, and rule of law. When law interferes with the church, or church interferes with law, both fail to preserve the equilibrium: they each provide LIMITS to the other. The limit of christianity is that which we can individually act upon. The limit of politics is that which we collectively must act upon. For christianity to survive at all – which looks currently bleak – requires we restore the equilibrium between the feminine church and the masculine aristocracy, so that both provide the necessary goods, but each is limited from producing it’s bads – by limiting christianity to the personal, and limiting the state to the collective.

One of the mistakes our people make – or rather, the men among our people make, is in visualizing an ideal man rather than the various men required in a division of specialization in an army, hunting party, or production line. When we worked in armies (militias) we all knew this. When we work on sports teams we know this. When we hunt we know this. When we work under the influence of christianity, classical liberalism, liberalism, marxism, and postmodernism in the industrial and post industrial age – we consider ourselves individuals.
All monopoly is bad. it’s intellectual laziness. We must only know the optimum role we can play on the team.

( My mother is amazing. She’s 80 years old, got her training in alcohol, drug, and dependency counseling decades ago, and she still spends literally hours a day helping a network of women. It’s basically a part time job. The women in my family – at least on the french side, are absolutely amazing. )
