Misplaced Maternal Instinct, Part I

I head an interesting thought on the state of the world today, about the wokeness, the PC, and why we’re degrading this way, That tied it to something that we often celebrate quite a lot, that would be maternal instinct, the kind that most women have got, that’s why we’re seeing such softness, such growing degeneracy, is that they’re placing this instinct on the whole of society. Now we all know that this instinct has an important role to play, who of us would still be alive if women were not made this way? Babies need lots of nurturing, they always need to be kept safe, and women with good instincts were the ones who saw themselves replaced, the ones whose descendants live on, and would should be thankful for that, so it seems strange, at first, to say that such an instinct can be bad. But then bring in feminism, as we’re seen the last face decades, telling women to go to work, it’s more important to get paid. And we’ve seen women do just that, that is where the problem took off, since women choosing to take jobs doesn’t mean the instincts are lost. You can’t ignore evolution, and the nurture meant for a babe gets displaced onto society, we’ve seen this so much in our age. Look at all of this woke nonsense, blind cheerleading of ‘the oppressed.’ feminine instinct to protect what they perceive as the smallest. And if that virtue signaling brings women a nice, moral buzz, that’s like those ‘super-mother’ types, who gain status from their ‘extra love.’ Look at the damn HR culture, With its tone policing run rife, like mothers lecturing young kids not to say words that ‘aren’t nice.’ look at the cancel culture plague, seems remarkably like grounding, say something that mother won’t like, you’re punished, they take all your things. Look at the nonsense called ‘hate speech,’ the punishing of points-of-view… the female urge to spare feelings, and place emotion above truth. Look at the cursed ‘nanny state,’ the safety obsession we see, how much comes from the displaced urge to protect a helpless baby? CONCLUDES IN PART II.
