The most significant economic unit, and life is economic at its simplest level, is the nuclear family: a man and woman raising the children they created together. We can bend and tweak and excuse other models out of compassion, but they do not stand up on empirical evidence.
We adopted several children (hold your applause…no signaling here), and the data on all “progressive” family definitions turns up inferior outcomes. Trot out the “bad father” and “blame the victim” narratives, but the core data does not lie.
The problem with Blacks and the lower classes is that we have cavalierly destroyed the family and shamed anyone stupid enough to defend it in mixed company.
