Seems like Russia began doing the things that work for a constitutional republic over the last 30 years and USA began doing all the things that work or do not work very well for a socialistic government. An anti all creation monarchy that is cloaked with various complicated political theory's.FOS » 26 Jun 2023, 7:02 pm » wrote: ↑ No, they don't. People will actually accept the values and habits of the society they are raised in. If you fail to be an effective steward and you teach the children that it is cool to do drugs, be homosexual, never reproduce, etc...then that is exactly what most people will do.
it is the duty of the elders to instil in society values, habits, and even preferences which are ultimatrly healthy for individuals and for the society as a whole.
This is where modern us society has utterly failed. And even people who 'identify' as 'right wing' or 'conservative' make the error of worshipping individual choice and being far too permissive of behavior that is deeply destructive to society as a whole.
so no, we should not grant that an 'adult' should be allowed a sex change operation...because this normalizes insanity and it will indeed corrupt the children. Just like opium deaths became an epidemic because we allowed people to think that doing drugs is 'cool' and AIDS/effeminate men became a thing because we were too permissive of homosexuality.
And it is not necessary to 'prove' what is 'right' or 'wrong'. Even if you are a moral relativist or a moral nihilist you can easily step over such concerns. What is objective is whether certain behaviors reduce or increase our ability to survive. Particularly...our risk of being outcompeted by rival societies who do not engage in degenerate behavior. If you approach things in that way...it becomes remarkably easy to make decisions about what behavior is permissible and what is not.
Making the decision, Don't need reason don't need rain, going down pull the chain.
