Liberty leads to mush, mush.
Liberty leads to indoctrination by Leftists.
Authoritarianism combats this.
He who controls Authoritarianism controls society through indoctrination.
Right now Democrats control Authoritarianism.
I think without indoctrination, Americans would naturally drift towards conservative social values and nationalism.
Why so? What you appear to deem as "conservative social values and nationalism" only serve the interests of a far limited group of Americans, not the whole group of us.
What is this "indoctrination" of which you speak?
You're the one who's promoting an anti-human ideology that revolves around serving the interests of a deviant minority at the expense of the normal majority.
Human beings are animals. We naturally fall into predictable patterns of behavior like any animal does. We form pairs and have offspring, the pair works together to provide for and protect the offspring. That's how it works all over the world no matter the race or religion.
Nature is the essence of social conservatism.
