Racial grievance and the premise that the US was built and founded by slavery and racism is a fundamental tenet of today's Democratic party which controls the entire media.
That's only a recent change. When I was in school we learned that the U.S. was built by a few white dudes all by themselves. Actually not just the U.S. but everything, and not only that but God is a white dude and Jesus too! And pretty much everyone who ever did anything throughout history was a white dude as well.

In a world where marriage contracts had not been developed, a nuclear family would be seen as a new type of familial structure and would not be socially conservative. Social conservatism is defined by a negative attitude towards social change
is the economic philosophy of prudence in government spending and debt"Thinking that you can spend your own money better than the gov't is not necessarily fiscally conservative - and even if it were, most young people do not have much money to spend nor do they know how to spend their money properly. Thus they tend to favor a govt that will spend money on/for them

Young people do not typically lean conservative because they have nothing to conserve. Socially conservative policies were formulated in another generation for another generation, so it's no surprise young people don't hold strongly to them. They don't feel like they have a culture to retain. If anything, they are trying to build their own new cultural rules that are relevant to their particular cultural moment. Likewise, conservative fiscal policies are written to protect the economic status quo - i.e. preserve the wealth of those who have wealth - so it's no surprise that young people who have not yet accumulated wealth are not often fiscally conservative
That's a terrible oversimplification.

First, you're an idiot.
Second, I also believe in the value of strong families. I just define it a lot differently than you; in your world, the only strong family is white, Christian, 80-IQ with guns and meth spilling out of the chimney.

If you believed in the family you wouldn't vote exclusively for the party that actively destroys it.

Statistically, the most die-hard Democrat-voting group has the lowest average IQ.

That’s not what I see, as a 27 year old. Young guns are obsessed with fast cars and bikes. Still burning out and popping their engines to make noise and feel the power of their engines whenever they get a chance. If that’s not their speed, they’re on boosted or trad boards. Then you have the video game kids. There have been video game boys since the 70s (pinball @ the lounge?) and the early days of RPG games. Many of those protogamers were either hapless rely-on-mama dorks or skilled savants, just like today.
I’ve actually hung around industrious femboys and queers. For what a person may lack in a traditionally masculine affect, they may make up for in their conscientiousness, skill, and dedication to their particular career. do you know how rare it is for a young man to pass as a girl, choose to live that lifestyle, and be hot enough and have the particular look to end up making a living dancing on tiktok? It’s a skill and luck thing for sure.

You've just defined the majority of Democrats as both fiscally conservative and socially conservative.
Good job!

As a practicing dominatrix, I so often come across men who lead a macho public life, yet they seek an outlet to be submissive or even humiliated. To be a MAN that the OP is talking about is to constantly be ON and ready for battle. That is not a healthy way to live and leads to a disregulated nervous system which actually leads to failed relationships. Men are not lost. I think more and more are feeling safer to be who they truly are and not try to fit in a box.
I think people in general, which is a good thing. However, the outlet is in many cases questionable.
There is also something weird about the relationship between men and women. Real men are supposed to be dominant, but we have many ("gentlemen") customs that are female dominant like taking of your hat for a woman, kneeling when asking to marry, standing up when a woman leaves the table, etc.
So there is this undercurrent that men should be submissive to females, while there is also the position that a man should be dominant. It really doesn't make a lot of sense.
I'm not advocating traditional relationships and their roles, but at least these types of relationships were clear about what was to be expected. Maybe what we're seeing are symptoms of this confusion.

Democrats, and especially BLM, want to destroy the nuclear family.

Democrats also want to punish talented hard workers by raising taxes significantly. California, New York, etc all have been under Democrat control for generations and have insane taxes - a high W2 earner will pay close to 50% of their income in taxes.

My mother-in-law is a die hard Democrat.
If you discuss most issues with her she will come down on the conservative side of the argument.
The overwhelming majority of Democrats over 40 vote D purely out of habit or they are single issue voters.

Do you not find even a little irony that you're staring at a screen right now? Or are you implicating yourself in this as well?

There's no way you weren't severely bullied in high school. "Democrats, and especially BLM, want to destroy the nuclear family" is not something a normal, well adjusted person would say.

Who else are you going to claim created America? Were the founding fathers not white men?

The left openly attacks the nuclear family. Brooks was widely praised by Democrats for this article despite it being completely idiotic.
