I heartily disagree with your position that paleoconservatism is defined by "race."
To me, it is defined more by religion, or at least by a submission to the Great Western Tradition of political freedom emanating from a natural order ordained by God.
I have--since turning into an extreme reactionary--always thought that this is what I thought; that I am a cultural supremicist. I wonder how long I will hang on to that increasingly tattered notion? Is the slide from cuturalism into racism inevitable as, one by one, all the beautiful icons are smashed in the interest of a bigger box of crayolas for the Ruling Elite to play with? Will I be able to continue to convince myself that it's all just a coincidence that so many of the things I love were, originally, the handiwork of white men? Can I continue to tell myself that the disaster brought about by the (mostly) white men in the Catholic Church has nothing whatsoever to do with the catastrophic collapse in the confidence and vigor of white men in the wake of a century of mass murder and government policy?
Of course these men teach me that racism is a sin.(But so is buttering up altar boys, I think.) And my reason still flees from racial ideology. But for how long, I wonder? And is culturalism the notorious "near occassion of sin" we are warned about?
Or is it merely human?
Maybe being human is the essence of the near occasion of sin.
