The lib line of argument is still nearly impossible to counter, because it relies on first-principles of empathy and kindness. Our first-principles are law and order, justice, freedom, community. It depends on us saying "we want to maintain or increase our already-high QOL and not sacrifice anything to allow a significant boost in the QOL of these minority populations". It's inherently selfish and unsympathetic. And we can defend that, but we're always going to sound like selfish pricks. It's rational, IMO, when you think the pie isn't growing anymore, to not want to give up any of your piece, but it is hard to defend morally.

The idea that it's better to let 99 guilty men evade punishment than to wrongly imprison 1 innocent man may not translate well from legal philosophy to a broader social engineering sphere, as it touches on the liberal notion that, while handouts do engender some unwanted laziness, yet they provide difference-making help to fewer albeit good people earnestly giving it their all. It may simply be a trade-off that is not scalable.

each side has to find a way to demonstrate to the other how their respective values are useful

really hard to do this on the level of social media interaction, but pretty easy to do in small communities

my new gf of about 1 year saved me from a bottomless pit of despair by just being insanely caring and loving

i'm not nearly as empathetic as she is, but i now really appreciate what empathy can do for people. in other words, i'm no lib but can see how their first principles - taken at face value as op describes them - are good for the world

Same situation here actually. I was/have been just such an angry person lately, angry at the world and the state of things, and our raging actually just ends up distancing us from those closest to us. My mom said I seemed like a different person (for the worse) when I visited over Christmas and felt comfortable railing against libs; the few and limited political discussions I've had with my gf concerned her; and finally talking to my friend last night making me realize I've lost sight of much of my rationality because of senseless anger against libs. I feel like I'm waking from a rage-coma or something.

i'm flaming you dude, waiting for leftists to reasonably compromise on anything is like waiting for a 300 pound woman to grow wings and fly into space

anybody with a brain knows that "empathy" is not a real thing. cognitive "empathy" is just the human capability to abstractly think multiple steps ahead, combined with a robust theory of mind, in order to calculate the existential state of people other than yourself. in short: the smarter you are, the more "empathy" you have. it's not some kind of magical property of human personality that individuals have more or less of, independent of intelligence.

regular people are never going to have anything other than superficial "empathy" that operates on their emotions and feelings, rather than their abstract thought, because they are dumb and suck at thinking. i really don't give a shit about what they "think" about anything, and neither should you or anyone else

wikipedia has an interesting entry on the difference between "cognitive" and "affective" empathy that's worth reading. to illustrate the difference: high functioning sociopaths have high cognitive empathy but no affective empathy (they don't actually feel another's pain). autists, by contrast, tend to have high affective empathy but low cognitive empathy (they "love genuinely" but struggle to model human behavior using, e.g., social cues).

sure, both types are probably just survival tools, but at least affective empathy can claim to give you some sense of purpose in life, especially when material / egocentric pursuits cease to satisfy (as they have in my case)

Conservatives are more empathetic than liberals though- at least by percentage of charitable giving metric. The idea that liberals care for other people is a myth. Liberals don’t care about the poor, they just hate the rich.

Right. On a means basis, conservatives are more charitable. In other words, even controlling for income conservatives are more generous. My guess is a lot of that comes from religion. In addition, being a “liberal” is a way of signaling that you are virtuous without having to actually be virtuous.

I'm not lib, but I'm saying why it's hard to argue against it, because our conservatism is inherently self-serving and insular, while at face-value their worldview is not

At face value it’s not? Every policy they suggest involves stealing resources from hardworking people to distribute such spoils to their voting base.

And conservatism is self-serving?

Yes, a lot of people fall for shitlibs propaganda. But that does not mean that their positions have any basis in morality.

This is the crux, right here. It's a form of theft, what they advocate, pure and simple. The paradox is that one may become a better neighbor by first looking after himself foremost.

The Reagan formulation, which is lost to years of betrayal and incompetence by GOP establishment cucks, is that the basic value of “first do no harm” is incomprehensible to the lib mindset. The issue is that the lib mindset is better positioned to make use of a crisis. The traditional GOP has to establish dominance by being essentially better trusted as a steward of American dominance as the lone superpower. Now that the Bushes and Obama have basically flushed that advantage we’re left with an identity politics fight over a shrinking pie.

The thing is that Americans hate this and much prefer feeling like the top dog special snowflake. The party that finds a way to pivot to that and deliver on its core promises will wreck the other one, and long terms Dem have a leg up though I basically expect them to fuck it up given their track record over the last 40 years and the current leaders on their side.

more generally, ANY political worldview that claims to have the "moral high ground" will always be vulnerable to criticisms it can't be consistently applied across all circumstances.

politics (and morality for that matter) ultimately comes down to some form of self-interest/tribal interest

And thus the truth of the matter. But white people aren't allowed to support their tribe while others can, and the argument is always that whites already have enough and should make sacrifices so others can gain

You can argue that democrats'/libs' methods of redistribution or empowerment are shit, but not really their first principles - unless you're willing to be labeled a white nationalist/race realist

i think the concept of white privilege actually has some teeth to it...but it shouldn't be tolerated as an inexhaustible source of lib outrage. if libs want to weaponize it, then they need to establish ground rules for actually settling the damn issue. otherwise, they're just debt collectors who don't want to give their debtors a way out. Jordan Peterson tried to get at this with Michael Eric Dyson during the Munk debates, but Dyson waved him off (to much applause), arguing that any attempt to quantify and finally settle the issue of white privilege was to be "complicit" with the privilege itself. one of the most sanctimonious and transparently self-serving things i've ever heard.

Tribalism has ramped up 10x with identity politics, which seemingly has taken negotiations completely off the table. And that's my biggest issue, I think, and why I'm so reactionarily opposed to modern liberalism, is that there IS no compromise or negotiating anymore. You disagree with them anywhere, and you are a vile racist. Lib reaction has pushed me harder right than any policy position, and from that I realize I'm often taking an emotional, irrational, reactionary stance on things, rather than a rational middleground. I think this applies to many of us, and we should be aware of that.

I'm really not

I had a long phonecall with my best friend from college last night, politics came up, and I couldn't articulate anything because I knew the first principles I was/am operating under are trying to preserve white identity/community/country for my own self interest, and that's not exactly defensible and ignores reality. Xo has made me a rage-filled, reactionary, cumskin dork, unfortunately, whose operating principle has been "FUCK LIBS." That's not sustainable in any way. Self reflection is my only way out

For example, my friend asked me why I support trump; all I could say was "he wants to shutter illegal immigration, and he makes libs furious and has revealed their true, fascist colors." That's my worldview now? It's pathetic. The thread about "has your life been better since Trump?" also had me thinking about this.

What exactly is wrong with preserving community and country? You can do that without being racist.

Concerning identity, the only people that aren't allowed to celebrate their own cultures are white Americans, and various European cucks.

You've bought into the great liberal lie that white people should be feel guilty for simply for existing. This isn't about morality, which shifts in the wind for libs. It's about them controlling you.

I don’t think you have to deny that you have a moral duty to help humanity at large, only that the best way to do that is mass third world immigration.

If it were the case that you could magically open the borders and everyone would join our nation to form a cohesive, patriotic, productive whole that was greater than the sum of its parts, then yeah you’d have no case. But this probably isn’t realistic.
