Is the moral decay of our society a direct result of the culmination of capitalist degeneracy?
>muh free market where individuals make rational decisions >Society worships whores >Buy useless shit like dog clothes when millions are homeless >Watch guys who get paid 100 million dollars to kick a ball while millions can't even get any job
Even in a society with strong morals overall, say 1950s America, people were shallow consumers who gravitated to the degeneracy of rock n roll
As an alternative, would rather die than socialism

The narrative on Sup Forums seems to dictate the cause of degeneracy of western society is from a direct result of Jewish tricks. From the inception of bolshevism and, later on by the subversion of ideologies set forth by the Frankfort school. If that's the case then are "Jewish tricks" really the cause or is it a paradox were both sides of the spectrum are destructive either way?
Nathaniel Scott
it's the jews
Jaxon Stewart
We've forgotten our peoples song, and also our tophats.
Of course western society worships sluts and whores. Sup Forums does too. It's disgusting. It's a shame and a disgrace. Western civilization allows women to be disgusting promiscuous cunts and then men are expected to have no problem with it, "MAN UP" and marry the cunts.
The homeless issue will never be solved, nobody gives a fuck enough to even start to tackle it, especially when most homeless people are men.
Sports was always a money machine, of course due to the greed of the players, owners, and the idiocy of the people watching it who also buy their products.
Western civilization is pretty much dead when it comes to morality, but what's even worse is how people will insist it's not, and then proceed to be even more degenerate, thus continuing the decline.

Basically need some sort of regulation in a free market. Invesotrs are a large group that aren't going to organize together and attempt to infuence, that is why we need standard setting bodies. Then you have your typical lobbbying from industry, enviromentalists whatever

Fuck off statist cunt
I guarantee there is plenty of useless shit you waste money on and there would probably be much more if you weren't a smelly broke NEET cuck.
Blake Myers
If the local business provides a service that I want then I'd gladly spend money there, if it doesn't then I won't waste my money to create jobs at someone else's business out of principle.
Also both of those scenarios end up with someone getting richer off my money, not just the 2nd one.
Alexander Thomas
That's the question then: are people inherently irrational
If people are inherently irrational and gravitation towards whores worshiping is inevitable, then something like Fascism may be ideal to keep a strong society functioning
Nothing degenerate about me wanting to put my dick in her bum.
Kevin Ramirez
no there is a difference simple people own small businesses. small businesses have greater potential of creating jobs and they are also more available to common people to work in. in a corporation you need pay for stuff like equipment,training,benefits etc thus harder to create a single job

Fascists, traditionalists, right-wingers, they are all hypocrites and they worship sluts and whores. I've argued with them plenty about this, I've seen what they say to other people. You cannot put the genie back in the bottle or close pandora's box in western society, pretty much *everyone* supports the degeneracy and they will continue to do so.

No, you leftist little fedora tipper. I'm concerned about how degeneracy is becoming accepted, and it's decimating the birth rates and marriage rates. You're not very smart, little guy.
You need to tell me what I can do then to resist this degeneracy, my only instinct is to give up and let divine intervention do the work. The degeneracy is bad - so bad, in fact, that westerners deny it exists, so they can be even more degenerate.
Alexander Nguyen
Rationale is inherently subjective. What is deemed rational is in of itself rational because the acting party believes it is. Morals on the other hand are derived from the interactions of the individual with society. A person does not fuck their sister or eat the dead because it irrational, but because society deems it immoral. Rationale can therefore be hardwired by a strong state to keep society functioning at its maximum.
Christian Diaz

Brayden Nelson
>sucking on the government tit. You're thinking Bernie tier "socialist" bullshit i.e. social democracy. Not even far leftists truly believe in simply living off the government while not putting in any work, you simple minded faggot. You don't even know what socialism means, lol.
confirmed virgin. You were never near a musician, someone who appreciates music or someone who doesn't suck in your life and never will be. You have religious moral blinders on like all the rest of the herd. It's so bad that you view art and culture as dengenerate because you are billowing idiot like your brethren. How can you not realize how fucking lame you are when you say shit like that? You moral crusaders are the most bluepilled bitter autistic failures I've ever witnessed.

We believe in free enterprise not detrimental to the state and to it's people. Your ideal individualist utopia will NEVER come into fruition because you chucklefucks reject human nature. Even in our own country a heavy white majority voted in favor of more left leaning economic policies (FDR). But please by all means live out your own society outside from the group and perish. You are akin to the libertarians who believe a libertarian high trust society can exist in a non majority white country. You people are utterly pathetic.

They always contradict themselves on powers of the government. The real thing driving this lunacy is their evangelical or traditional Christian upbringing which is basically indoctrination lobotomy from birth. The rational and logical connections will never click with these mental cripples when cognitive dissonance occurs in their simple programmed minds. Their brains develop around the skill of shutting out logic and working around tangible and provable evidence which conflict with their already held set of ideals/beliefs/convictions.

You are just saying random shit through your mouth, without any data. Music made by religious people are the greatest sample of art, while atheist music are just mediocre shit without artistic merit.
If you are not a troll your cultism is showing big time. Dear leader play perfect game of golf? High religion make the only real music that exist.

It's a spiritual issue OP. When people reject the moral code of their ancestors, degeneracy abounds, regardless of political system.
Easton Phillips
Professional artist here, am atheist.
Considering atheism has been significantly less popular than religion in almost every historically significant group of people thus far, no shit most musicians and artists are going to have been religious you fucking retard.
That doesn't in any form imply that being religious is necessary to achieve artistic greatness. Also, all people have the drive to create cool shit. Inspiration is pretty much the human condition, and 'talent' and 'genius' are extremely exaggerated by normies who don't understand what an artist or musicians goes through to get to the point they're at.
I was as shit at drawing as any other 7 year old at one point in my life, and then i spent 20 years doing it and studying it every day because i really liked it. That's the only difference between an artist that gets hailed as talented and someone who draws stick figures. Nobody picks up a brush and paints beautifully the first time. It's a skill, not a god given talent.
Wyatt Moore
>in a corporation you need pay for stuff like equipment,training,benefits etc thus harder to create a single job
Small businesses need to pay for equipment, training, benefits, and everything else too. The only scenario where they don't do that is if they're hiring people illegally.
Adam Reed
Fascism can be the answer. As long as it similar to the following definition (taken from IronMarch):
"Fascism is the traditional world-view, as it manifests in the modern world. This means fascism is primarily concerned with *truth*, which is to say, with objective reality. It also means that fascism is not an ideology, although fascists can employ ideologies to deal with specific circumstances when the need arises.
Fascism cannot be compared with ideologies like capitalism or communism, since those are simply alternate methods to reach the same goal (ie. the greatest comfort and safety for the greatest numbers), while fascism holds a completely different goal: to make human society embody the eternal truths of the universe.
There's basically infinite numbers of potential ideologies and world-views, but they all belong to one of two categories, which are polar opposites and totally irreconcilable. Those two categories are modernism (often called materialism) and traditionalism (often called idealism). In modernism, the highest good is to be comfortable and safe, while avoiding pain and danger. Everything is good or bad according to that criteria. In traditionalism, the highest good is truth and the rejection of falsehoods. Everything is good or bad according to that criteria.
...
It's very important to note that for modernists, ideas, values and theories are *tools* to be used to attain material ends. Those things have no inherent value in themselves. If truth is in the way of feeling good, then truth must go. Inversely, for traditionalism, it is material conditions and possessions that are considered tools - used for the purpose of attaining and upholding truth. If comfort and safety are in the way of truth, those things must be sacrificed."
The point is that for an organization of white society to work and last, it needs to keep both principles and a grasp of factual reality. It needs to be adaptive to nature.
Justin Cox
But don't you see? This whole degeneracy meme is a circle jerk of Christian austists who are embittered at a society that doesn't accept them because they are awkward and talentless. That's why anything that involves fun, social skills or special ability is "degenerate". The funny thing is they think its a serious modern political stance and not something the zealots throughout history have used to make followers accept the harsh lifestyle of unfounded self discipline based on ancient texts.

Christopher Morgan
I don't really agree with how such definition is used for Fascism here since Buddhism can mean the same thing too (seeking objective truth) while to most people, Fascism obviously means right wing authoritarian.
I do, however, completely agree with most of your post and the fact that society needs both materialism and idealism in a healthy balance. Rejecting one or another will only make everything worse.

>Is the moral decay of our society a direct result of the culmination of capitalist degeneracy? no see: america has been capitalist for hundreds of years, yet degeneracy only really started spreading in 1960.
>Can Capitalist degeneracy be fixed? in theory, yes. in practice, it's gonna be very hard. the primary source of degeneracy is academia. the primary way of spreading it is the media. if a strong, fascist style government were to purge leftists and globalist from academia and media, and prevent them from taking over these institutions again in the future, then degeneracy could be reversed. but i don't see that happening in the near future.
No it can't be fixed. Only through societal collapse and reinvention. Trial and error.

Thanks. It's the hardest it's ever been, and I have noticed that the degenerates bark even louder than almost ANY other group, even the "Christian extremists" that they never shut up about. Western civilization may be very very degenerate, but if you find a way to defeat the loud barking degenerates, the rest will scatter like bugs and crumble.
Ryder Gonzalez
you guys may think today's world is facing the unprecedented crisis, but the truth is in between 19th to 20th century the world has been globalistic free market with moral degeneracy. People have justified child labor for "freedom to work" and denied public restrictions. Even Japanese samurais went to Brazil as immigramt workers. The classic sci-fi novel "Time Machine" was illustrated how future humans will evolve and separate into the capitalist race and the laborer race. Actually conservativists have been fond of socialists back then. Later Hayek proclaimed he is not a conservative because they have attacked freedom.
After series of economic crisis in early 20th century, the world became more nationalistic / protectionistic place. However communism rised and conservativists said good bye to socialism and gradually fused with libertarian / capitalist ideologies. True color of conservativism is always oppourtunism and a trimmer.
I expect sometime soon the world will turn back as it has done in past, (prehaps after the self destruction of EU) but at the same time another extreme ideology could rise. Stay conservative is the key.
John Ross
The only answer is regressing in technology available to the masses. That means no more Internet
Pre industrial society lacks all of the degeneracy because basic survival os still an imperative and people live close to the land.
NOTHING else will fix this.
Kevin Gutierrez
I don't believe that it's truly possible to have a traditional society and still keep modern technologies.
I see industrial technology itself as the the root cause of modernism ideas taking hold not the other way around.
Why do people never get this? You simply will not have people who are truly moral unless you have a large peasant class literally working the fields
