European countries have relatively homogeneous populations that, until recently, had not changed much for centuries. They had monarchs, a well-defined class system, and an established state church. The goal of European reactionaries since the late 18th century has been to protect those national characteristics. But what about America?
America was created as an independent nation on Enlightenment principles–the Declaration of Independence says so. Its population mix changes every year due to large levels of immigration. It never experienced the Middle Ages, so it never had a monarch, a nobility, or an established state church. It is always evolving and is built on constant change. So what is an American reactionary to do?
The truth is that they don’t even agree on the timeframe for the society they want to revive.
