American dinosaurs talk about being "paleocon"



https://www.chroniclesmagazine.org/about/
Edward Welsch and Paul Gottfried are both in the editorial staff of Chronicles. Do they really still think Christianity ain't kaput?

Is a Traditionalist Conservative also a Nationalist?

5:00   "Extremely Paleocon" - what does that even mean?

7:00  Why use the terms paleocon  and neocon without defining their meaning? This is just laziness and sloppy thinking. "Con" is the operative word as in "con trick".

9:00  "Middle American revolution" - what the hell does that mean?

22:00  Does "Traditional Judeo-Christian values" mean slut-shaming and gay-bashing?

23:00  How many confirmed Christians are there in America anyway? If you are not a confirmed Christian, do you have the right to be counted as Christian  because the narrative of Christianity is obviously absurd and bizarre ie that an executed revolutionary is the co-equal of the supreme and eternal Abrahamic God that created the Universe. (This belief is idolatry and blasphemy to Jews and Muslims.)

24:00  Does "a paeloconservative kind of culture" means "white nationalism"?

25:00  Any word with paleo in it suggests dinosaurs, and dinosaurs are extinct.

28:00  The trouble with pretending to be Christian is that you will slink away when you are asked if you really believe in the absurdity that an executed revolutionary is the co-equal of the supreme and eternal Abrahamic God that created the Universe. This is presumably the reason why no Christian will now debate with me and Christians now avoid me like the devil. The fact is that not even a Sistine Chapel stuffed with cardinals would be able to defend the Trinity, because it is so obviously intellectually and morally indefensible.

29:00  I wonder what Catholic Edward Welsch thinks of Michael Voris. Interestingly, Welsch actually says he doesn't care about Protestants. That is like saying "I don't care about the morals of my fellow White Americans", which doesn't quit make sense if you are a virtually a White Nationalist.

44:00  Conservatism was always a defensive ideology created by the Western political establishment to protect themselves against the ideas of the French Revolution. The ideas of the French Revolution are still  the engine room of Western political ideology but it has been running on empty for quite a while now.

48:00  Gottfried is still talking about left/right political establishment as if it ever made sense. In the end, it is the Natural Law v Positive Law debate we are yet to have that will decide what in theory ought to be done. Too bad I won't be allowed to have this dialogue here or anywhere else. I have identified too many of Western sacred cows that I have queued up to be slain and Western Man wishes to remain in denial about the failure of his political ideology and institutions even as his cities are going up in flames. In so many ways Western Man resembles the superstitious Hindu who submits and worships the cow. Gottfried is talking about every race going their separate ways as if it were a viable and practicable solution, which is laughable. Who is going to make whom move? Is he not even aware of the death and violence of Partition in India?

52:00  The Benedict Option = more white flights of fantasy (pun intended)
