A single person, stripped of any collective context (family, village, religion, ethnicity) in which people support one another and consider one another members of a group with duties to that group, is much weaker than one who exists within those frameworks and has sacrificed some degree of individual autonomy to do so. Of course society is reducible to the individual, but individuals derive a huge amount of advantage and benefit from various collective associations and actions. Choosing to 'go it alone' without engaging in any sort of collective action doesn't make you stronger, it makes you profoundly weaker. People can certainly choose to do so, but the idea that this isn't a sacrifice is nonsense. The more collective support and obligations you strip away, the weaker you become. Someone who pursued the extreme form of this in the middle ages (hermits) never took it as a sign of strength - it was always seen as a sacrifice.
Yeah and the current context we live in is a society that seeks to strip all native/natural collectivist aggregations and render them into ideological identities that end up serving a single cohort.
the post you're quoting literally says "i'm not taking the unabomber position" so i don't know why you doubled down on explaining why it's dumb
it's ayn rand level cosmic idealism and it's really annoying that you can preface things with "i am speaking entirely about brass tacks" and you'll still get people throwing millenialist bullshit at you
The "real country" you're referring to is just the baby boomer cultural hegemony manufactured at the end of ww2 where they had to carefully maintain the image that the US military industrial complex was trustworthy and that there were real patriots fighting hard inside of it. It's a fucking lie and it was always a lie. they just took the gloves off.
Need the damn suppressor laws redone for sure. And the NFA totally scrapped. There's bits and pieces going on but at the rate it'll take another 100 years to get rid of it fully. The Force Trigger Reset is a tiny step in the right direction but doesn't really mean much in the end.
Larry Fink had nothing to do with Hillary: The Movie. Citzens United was about whether the people who made the movie should go to prison because their company was a 501(c)(4) instead of an S-corp. Everyone who thinks it would be totally awesome and empowering to the people if the government had broad censorship powers over any communication published at an organizational level, including the ability to imprison people involved in producing or disseminating forbidden content, hasn't thought about the implications of that at all.
This explains why they have a reputation for petty, power-tripping, and nonsensical leadership.

They import migitants who can't assmilte who will vote for them whilst they live in gated communities.
I wouldn't really consider the scathing anti-white racism of the Dems as a sort of "coming to light" recent development. This has been a cornerstone of their platform for at least a decade and a half
They were also bred to take direction. Independent thinkers were frowned upon
