We also touch on the fragmentation and infighting within the dissident right, the importance of Christianity in the UK, and the tension between ethno-nationalism and class elements. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the culture wars, the impact of social media, and the need for the right to find common ground and focus on effective strategies. We also discuss the manipulation of women's empathetic nature, the bundling of issues in politics, the flaws of first-past-the-post systems, the rise of the elite human capital right, the impact of gay marriage on societal norms, and the need for strong leadership to effect change, the challenges of imposing pro-social norms without strictures, the power of minorities in representative democracies, and the potential for backlash in the culture war. We also touch on the success of populist leaders in El Salvador and the importance of a strong client class for change.
