nostalgism

A political strategy that runs campaigns and appeals to voters based on an idealized and pleasant image of the past, often adopting policy that emulates that past. This happens when the party or politician has little substance of their own and hides behind nostalgia to cover up something else, like corruption.

Pro-Natalist

A couple points of contention:
1-Maintaining other cultures (in the name of pluralism and competition)
2-Practices decided by subsidiarity (Circumcision)
3-Using kids to inflate your own existential importance
4-Reproduction as evidence for the validity of practice (Circumcision)
5-Cultual Imperialism (Parent can't be the final arbiter)
6-The parallel between reproduction and happiness (Paperclip maximizing)
7-Cultual zealotry
8-Capital Punishment
I think I've seen enough.
Hym "I'm going to go point by point (In reference to the Alexander Grace video with the Pro-Natalist couple):
(1) I don't see how maintaining other cultures doesn't devolve into some form of overt Imperialism and (4) downstream from that I see you evidencing the validity of your 'culture' with your reproductive sucess and that isn't necessarily the case. (1) So I'll start by saying what I see happening (just from hearing you talk) is other cultures 'losing competition' thereby losing their claim to representation and being subordinate to the 'winning' culture. So that is just trading one form of Imperialism for another. (5) Additionally, I'm glad you brought up abuse because you see that (on some level) the parents can't be the final arbiter in regards to how their kids are raised. Firstly because they have to interact with other kids and other people. Now, I could devise of a culture wherein I have sexual relationships with my kids (at any and all ages). Now, your first response is likely going to be 'Well, your culture wouldn't reproduce as a result of inbreeding, therefore, the point is moot' but that could be remediated medical intervention (i.e. abortion) and I could add a practice (like the Viltrumites) where outsides are used for breeding and I could add a practice where the sons are made to kill eachother so that only one remains. (5) I don't agree that the external world should be prevented from intervening in the name of preventing 'Cultural Imperialism.' "
