Women choose courtship, men pick wives. Women are conservative with who they date, men are conservative with who they marry. Women are picky when it comes to sex, men are picky when it comes to commitment. To be a wife you have to be selected. We need Fathers to teach this.

It isn't by the written law, keeping every rule, but by surplus grace and faith shown through our deeds. ​A man—a sinner who, as Eve was deceived first, Adam fell due to a lack of courage—must hope to sacrifice himself for the greater good, like Christ, to anchor our society.

To be good is to perform. To be great is to endure. To be the greatest is to sustain.

We teach our children to avoid death and to stay out of prison, but the men who wrote history feared neither.

The same crowd that will cheer for you will trample you.

Christianity is patriarchy. Classical liberalism is the bulwark. Improve Or Death© is inevitable. @ImproveOrDeath

May the record show: When antisemitism was ascendant, I championed the dignity of the Jewish people. I promoted institutional sovereignty against pervasive populism. I opposed the dismantling of Catholic and Orthodox Christian patriarchy practiced voluntarily in households.

We often hear: "How do we help young men?" ​This is like a child asking: "How do we help our parents?" ​Young men are not members of the society; we own the society. ​Our progressive friends, like Scott Galloway, often ask: ​"How do we help men without setting women back?" @profgalloway The question's framing suggests traditional religious marriage sets women back; it does not—it promotes them. ​​Transitioning from a working doctor to becoming a doctor's traditional wife is a promotion. ​Traditional marriage defends women's rights. ​For example: ​Thousands of Black men fought in the Civil War to end slavery, gaining their rights, while women, particularly White and Black women, gained rights by petitioning their husbands in traditional marriages. ​Fewer traditional marriages increase the likelihood that far-right dissidents will challenge women's rights. ​The only solution to the "male loneliness epidemic" coined by progr*ssives is to promote patriarchy in households; attempting to destroy household patriarchy will inevitably destroy women's rights. ​The successor of the liberal Imperial State of Iran was the Isl*mic Republic, and the successor of the Weimar Republic was tragically N*zi Germany. (I'm not comparing the two) ​Husbands and wives serve each other via complementarianism; husbands and wives competing with each other lead to destruction.

We need moral clarity from a traditional classical liberal, a moderate: Gen-Z men don't need help; they need self-determination. We men can pull ourselves up by our bootstraps. I'm the son of a factory worker, at 24; I've paid for my MBA, B.S., & A.S. degrees. With no help. I used $0 in government aid, $0 in veterans benefits, and $0 in loans for the above listed degrees. We don't need the state to fund free childcare. We don't need the state to fund free college for all. Gen-Z young men don't need the state—as the state needs young men. The reason a shoemaker in the 1950s could provide for a family is that men dominated the labor market. The state pushed both sexes into the workforce, defying The Natural Law and driving down wages. Although no person receiving benefits should be disrespected or brought to shame, there's no need for SNAP, EBT, or government benefits when women who need support should rely on their husbands' income to fund their lifestyle. There's no need for state-enforced child support, because marriage itself provides child and spousal support. Some of our progressive liberal friends believe our morals and rights come from ourselves; classical liberals know our rights come from God. To a few of our secular leftist friends, anyone who disagrees is immoral or anti-intellectual—because they oppose the leftists, themselves, whom they view as God. Among Gen-Z men, anti-institutionalism and immorality are rising via a slippery slope. For our friends who are moderate conservatives: Downplaying the transatlantic slave trade tragically enables immoral people to downplay the Hol*caust. Islamophobia paves the road to antisemitism—as we Christians believe God became man, dwelt among us, taking on human flesh to save sinners. The religion fueling moral chaos among Gen-Z men, especially on the far right, is the religion of subsidized modern radical feminism and extremist progressivism—both narcissistic and idolatrous. As classical liberals, we don't need the state to enforce conservative values, but to defund the destruction of the family unit. Your SNAP/EBT is your husband. Your childcare is your wife, not the state. Your child support is your husband, not the government. Let's promote a culture of not conservative values, but traditional family values with respect to true big-tent liberalism—the bedrock of Americanism. Let's reject political extremism and promote a culture of self-determination, the foundation of the American experiment. ​Christians, the Jewish People, and Muslims can work together to disarm ideological extremism. @dailywireplus @theblaze @prageru @ProjectLiberal

I've completed graduate school. I refused to celebrate. ​For my MBA, M.A. (c), B.S., and A.S., it has only cost me under $25,000 for my first three to four college degrees, while accruing: • ​Zero Student Loans • ​Zero Government Assistance • ​Zero Veterans Benefits • ​Zero Tuition Assistance • ​Zero Debt ​Out of respect for the American taxpayer, I paid for my first three earned college degrees with my wages covered by my earnings, all by the age of 24, all costing under $25,000, out of pocket. ​I've earned my benefits; however, I have elected not to use them. I may exercise those rightfully earned benefits when and if I pursue my doctorate or additional degrees. ​​As a Christian and a Black man, I have not and will never celebrate my personal college graduations—in respect to my current degrees, although my educational achievement with this MBA is a serious milestone. ​I apply this rule exclusively to myself because I can only hold myself accountable. ​My culture's 33% marriage rate and 67% out-of-wedlock birthrate make personal celebration inappropriate. ​Any culture that tells its daughters to prioritize careerism over marriage, the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony is in error. ​I'm here to change that. ​Even the recent drastic improvements led by Gen-Z Men within urban America, embracing voluntary patriarchal values, do not yet warrant me celebrating my college education. ​Once I'm blessed with daughters, who will be Black women, I'll advise them to prioritize marriage first and college second, and as their father, I will celebrate both milestones with them, as both are important achievements, one of which is holy. ​Most importantly, my future adult daughters will see the value of voluntary Christian patriarchy, witnessing their husbands lead their households if they elect to have husbands. ​I'll tell my future sons to prioritize college or a trade first, marriage second, so that they can be providers. ​Two master's degrees, twice homeless, two-time college dropout, and twice deployed all under 26 years old. ​ZERO DEBT. ​We will renew urban American exceptionalism. ​@Iodcompany x @Improveordeath — Theron Bassett, MBA, M.A. (c).
