Social Determinism Because of The Intellectual Laziness of the Wealthy and Middle Class

Reading further in Van Creeveld's 'The Culture of War' I have found interesting concepts about the sociology of societies and their war cultures in regard to 'men without chests' and feminism. These are concepts that fit rather well with Toybean analysis of the evolution of societies and civilizations through various stages. It is not a subject that provides much optimism as humanity moves through deterministic social configurations and relationships rather like the seasonal leaves upon trees.

The economic aspects of war were not especially a subject of Van Creeveld's cultural research. I regard the evolution of contemporary economics from the classical foundation as something like that of the evolution of the culture of war as it attacks natural resources, consumes and depletes them looking abroad for more to input. The culture of war is largely a gender motivated phenomenon, and in its collapse such that no culture of war functions effectively the social environment is overrun by those that do.

The challenges to whatever elements of society are interested in creating a stable, zero-population growth with full employment and high quality of life lay within very a deep social complex of gender relationships, greed, generational hubris and ignorance and economic reasoning of no more sophistication than that of war and the joy of making a killing while survivingng the direct threat to one's own existence.

The United States could have just sealed the Mexican border to illegal immigration and help reconstruct Mexico simultaneously in order that they should ave no reason to send migrants north to the drug addled land of '4-Loco' where they can take over gradually from those with a weak grip on nationhood. The greed of globalists and resistance to ecological economics will in time collapse the United States into a warpath interregnum zone of contention perhaps suitable to a cultre of war in recovery from an era of 'men without chests' and feminism that has transformed the wine into vinegar. Cheap labor and fecundity to expand dumb economic growth of resource consumption is the devil in the details retarding intelligent economic redesign.

The plain biological facts of sociological existence does not confer person-hood upon soldiers or civilians as abstract units of pure equality, and neither does it provide a benificient and wise government,corporate leadership or hierarchical priesthood fundamentally interested in more than their own narrow economic self-interest. In order to create a strongly renewable, high-quality social environment with social equality for all citizens the solutions to the many political challenges would require that all understand the objective environmental facts of being and seek the well being of thy brother and sister as well as thyself. The Lord Jesus could accomplish such a mission, one has little reason to expect much from the animals of economics and war that flourish in the prosperous societies as well as the poor.

Gender aspects of biological alteration have even speculated on removing and freezing ovaries in young women for re-implantation later so they are are more fertile in older age after piling up money and career power. Reading 'The Culture of War' by Van Creeveld a chapter on feminism and the biological gender facts about war and population relates several facts such as why men are comparatively disposable and women so highly valued. An ovary freezing program could change that enabling women after freezing ovaries to be disposable warriors too. Van Creeveld noted that women have thinner skulls, less bone mass, less muscle and body size and are otherwise unsuitable compared to men for being clubbed and beaten in combat. Maybe Dr. Frankenstein could give steroids and genetic re-engineering to enhance female workforce survivability outside the financial and government services sectors.

Seriously though, I am skeptical about the political value of deferring reproduction through artificial means while importing illegal aliens to provide population increase. I think it is a sophistication that is disingenuous, although maybe freezing embryos could be an option to abortion as technology advances.

I will not make any jokes about freezing balls off in Alaska.

It is not enough to just mean well, posture toward pacifism or select paper instead of plastic in order to change society and enhance the prospects for species diversity and survival of pollution. To design an intelligent society in which all of humanity may dwell safely and prosperously for a time the real social dynamics of change biologically should be understood well enough to moderate the flow and direct it politically to an advantageous position. That is an extremely challenging venture most would be defeatists on if they even though about the challenges critically.
