When has any society been founded on a lack of identity?
>>2987374
nah
culture is a side-effect of habits anyway and not really important enough to get in the way of good progress
only tradition that I feel is important is the rule of law, everything else can be replaced by something better.

>Identity shouldn't exist
Radical behaviorism is debunked, you're the left wing equivalent of a creationist.

Khaldun was the one that coined the term asabiya which means social cohesiveness which explains the rise and decline of civilization.
Cultural heritage preserves asabiya.
Why is Ibn Khaldun so underrated? Literally almost nobody in the West knows about him. Man was based.

Do they actually believe that nonsense? Anyone who read about the Greek Dark Ages ,and the Sea peoples invasion of Egypt will know that is utter Hogwash. Once the Automation of Jobs is complete, and Climate Change turns Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East into gigantic Ovens. Let's see if Progressives think History is simply Linear Progress.
