My defintion of decadence: when a people or country not only no longer is capable to defend its survival, but actually asks why it should even want that, or finds it clever, even entertaining to try out how it is when defence and survival gets actively rejected, if not prevented. The major way in the EU to acchieve this is self-crucification over many different issues.
This position is likely to be considered one of the most extreme many have ever read here ...

... and I couldn't agree with it more. Well done! This is an excellently articulated point of the value of traditional culturalism. Indeed, as a species we have risen far beyond our most basic instincts but Skybird's point is that some of those baser drives have deep, intrinsic value.

I find it amazing that so-called progressives who are deeply driven to return to a more naturalistic state share the same political leanings as those most invested in defying such a state.
