Well..we have differences in how we view survival and evolution I have noticed, between the left and the right.

My family has what I have seen referred to as “education genes”. We have been shrinking in number and I am the last in my line, because women generally choose stem or other higher education and have few to no children. And it would be considered a demeaning thing to sell oneself..to fail and sort of fade away into genteel poverty so to speak would be acceptable, but not even metaphorical self prostitution/dependence on a male. Ours is a relatively rare matriarchal community from Southern India with gender dynamics frequently flipped.

But I think Trump, Musk etc view it as survival in women to “catch a wealthy” husband and be kept. It is a weird embrace of a kind of blood and soil animal nature, but bolstered by buggy technology. The buggy technology part is especially confusing. But given their regressive views, it actually tracks that the technology is also all rubbish..Science, facts and reality are generally not their friends.
