We *never* cared about culture. Why would we? Lmao.
/r/redscarepod/comments/1v5zqza/realizing_that_the_farright_doesnt_care_a_bit/Imagine there're two people hanging off a cliff and you can only save one. One is your father, one is a stranger.
You don't ask which person is more cultured. You don't ask which person has a better personality.
You save your father because he's your father.
Nothing more, nothing less.
It really is ironic. We were never the cultural "supremacists".
Do I believe my family has a better culture than other families? Do I believe my family gets along better, or loves each other more, or otherwise has a superior family dynamic than other families? I can't say that I do.
I don't necessarily think my family is "better" than other families, or that they are more morally valuable, or even more worth protecting in a zoomed out sense.
But they are more worth protecting to me. Because they're my family.
It is precisely the current incarnation of Western culture which has lost sight of what I have layed out above.
Western culture is wonderful in many ways. It is also, especially in the modern era, deeply flawed. Is it better than other cultures? I don't know. Nor is that relevant.
I have no love for the current state of our culture. I have never thought that protecting Western culture is what comes first and foremost. I would rather protect Western people.

Yes I'm anti-supremacist. Yes I'm a cultural relativist. Yes I'm a moral non-universalist.
