To the Mass State, Traditional Mothers are the True Subversives

2015-10-11

[StellaMorabito.net] What is it about traditional mothers that moderns find so offensive? Is it really all about "submissiveness" to something they call "the Patriarchy?" Do they really believe traditional mothers reinforce something so-called feminists call "gender roles?" On the surface it may seem this way. But I've been digging a little deeper and I think there's something else at play here. Because the elites who keep feeding us that hype are usually big promoters of political correctness. And political correctness is nothing more than a silencing tool. It's used to prop up the power of elites who push self-serving agendas that would never withstand real scrutiny.

In a very real sense, traditional mothers are probably the ultimate barrier to the consolidation and centralization of power of the Mass State. Think about it. Mothers who cultivate virtue and a sense of uniqueness in their children are the ultimate de-centralizers and distributors of power in a society. They set virtuous communities in motion. Behind the scenes.

I explore this idea in a series I recently wrote for the British web magazine, "The Conservative Woman." You can click here to read the first installment: "Traditional Mothers are the True Subversives: That's Why the State Wants to Gag Them." It's part of a conversation Leslie Loftis started at that publication with her essay "Conservative Women are a Deadly Threat to Liberal Elites." Here's a review of my series:

#5 except the wymynz continually prefer the All-Caring State, voting Democrat, and pushing the biggest nanny-staters into power.

Wymynz tend not to marry and become mothers, FrankG. Lots of us Republican-voting soccer moms, on whom the PTA and the entire volunteer infrastructure depend.

I seem to remember an article written by a women who was a feminist---until her son was trown out of college due to "harrasment" complaint.

#2 "political correctness is nothing more than a silencing tool"

Political correctness is a way for one group of insecure white people to feel superior to another group of white people.

FIFY.
