Did a SoCon Write This?

Sexual debauchery leads to the collapse of a civilization within 3 generations.

TLDR: The sexual revolution was a mistake. A poison. It unleashed termites into the foundation of the west.

How do we know this?

Read on.

It's Easy to Deal with a Symptom

Not with the cause of increased porn use. How about dealing with the loss of existential meaning for young men? And their lack of marriage prospects because of a toxic gynocentric culture?

Or, the bold leadership of Catholic institutions. We demonstrated leadership when we held classes in person all of this academic year. Let’s keep demonstrating to other institutions how it’s done. https://t.co/IfuI9ZAWEX

Socon Scam

It's hardly a surprise that women want husbands who have their lives together, hold good jobs, and have solid prospects. The problem is that there are too few of them. UVA Sociologist Brad Wilcox on making young men marriageable again.https://t.co/lwE9eMBBVb

Wilcox doesn't talk about feminism or misandry. Again. ConInc. is not meant to be effective, just make-work for fake "intellectuals" and academics. Shame on all those involved.

This Is Just Tired Old Social Conservatism Masquerading as Christianity

Does Kass Fully Defend Patriarchy?

Would this book be available at the local B&N?

I can't recommend enough How to Lead a Worthy Life, by Leon Kass. It's a deeply thought-out, richly expressed, and clearly argued piece of literature that is what Peterson's 12 Rules for Life might've been. This @ubookman review is excellent https://t.co/OJnBvm3ERD

Too Much White-Knighting

The article makes a good point about disciplining one's imagination and refraining from pornography, but the author indulges in socon white knighting at the end and downplays the culpability of women in the porn industry and of modern liberated women.

This Is "Conservatism"

Nothing more cringeworthy than writing by a conservative male feminist. He praises a Disney product which is another Mary Sue story with a HER-o who becomes only more wonderful once she stops letting men keep her down.

Mulan is worth watching because it is a great movie with a compelling plot. And it teaches an important truth: a girl does not have to pretend to be a man in order to excel in a traditionally male domain. https://t.co/ep3vXAtWVq pic.twitter.com/mxpp8UAOHN

No Mention of the F-Word (feminism)

as a set of motivations that have contributed and will continue to contribute to these effects. Purely a "Marxist" (economic) analysis...

2. Falling fertility/declining childbearing in recent years leads me to expect that more than 20% of Millennials will never have kids (overlapping considerably w/ the unmarried group mentioned above). @lymanstoneky has a similar view: https://t.co/zMZCQ7YpfK

White Paternalism

If conservatives could implement such legislation, that's what it would be called. But it will never happen, because multiculturalism and the new morality.

Addressing dignity inequality requires rebuilding moral guardrails, restoring stigma to shameful modes of behavior, and honoring the patterns of life that bestow dignity.

Rusty Reno: "The voices on The Commons are united in at least this: 21st century America is too divided, too unequal. This problem is rooted in economic policy decisions as well as moral & cultural trends, almost all of which have been promoted by elites." https://t.co/7TLBd6Vc9G

A SoCon Essay

Some parents do deserve blame for not raising their daughters properly, or even promoting a life of casual sex and promiscuity. But what of feminism and careerism? And this essay seems to downplay the agency of the young women themselves. What about their own poor choices?

Beckwith Responds to Thompson

Not Your Daddy’s Classical Liberalism by Francis J. Beckwith

“As regards the highest good, the founders recognized that the natural human inclination toward a transcendent source of existence—as often moved by conscience—ought to receive special protection under our legal instruments.” - @fbeckwith https://t.co/3itLr3osBC

— The American Mind (@theammind) May 27, 2020

Because the habits of some “Nietzscheanized right-wing nihilists,” as Thompson labels them, along with many other sub-groups these days, do not cultivate in the soul the proper conditions for freedom, individualism, and the pursuit of happiness, what results is not a free people who are capable of limited self-government and participating with moral integrity in a market economy, but rather, a mob of “independent” minds enslaved by their own unruly appetites. It is clear that Thompson recognizes this. Otherwise, he would not lament the threat that this nihilistic movement poses to the future of American conservatism.

A rather judgmental lot, are we?

I share Thompson’s affection for the founders and classical liberalism, as well as his loathing of the alt-Right nihilists.

Have either of these two academics meet a "alt-right" person in real life?
