Dirt never changes

It always does.

There are billions of processes in dirt.

The problem I see with this reasoning is that you can’t force change

If tradition naturally changes over time then why should we force it to change

It always changes itself. There is no need of interaction or force.

Ok

So why should we change if it’s natural

We should not but we can.

Well the way I see it is that Traditionalism is just certain limits but also a way to continue to control the populace strictly

You can't do some things but you have the ability to do others without much effort.

Traditionalist societies are not as flexible as others and reform is much harder to accomplish

But hey

At least you can conscript the populace

I’m not entirely sure you understand what tradition is

Tradition is usually there because it’s what works

If a better way is found, then it will change

That is that

Stalin had to put back the law against homofobia because of the pressure. Russians did not want gays.

There were alot of traditional or the norm things that were proven wrong with actual evidence but the church or nation didn't say "ok that is correct" until years after exploited.

Now leftiest do not compromise.

@Firefly That's a lie.

So conversion from old to new is slower

Ok that’s exactly what I said before if a better way is found or if it is proven wrong then tradition will change

I see leftists compromise all the time.

And that is also true

@Deleted User That is even worse.

But tradition compared to others change slower.

Compared to what

He sold you that gun

"We will hang capitalists on the rope they sell us."

That quote always seemed very ironic

Was just about to use a dumb arguement about vikings and the world being round lol.

There were many generals during WWI when the tanks started to come out and show their success who still thought the calvary charge was much more effective at the time. A tank needs to be stopped by bombs or stick something in the tracks, a horse can be shot and killed. Generals of entire armies, men who lives depended on their choices were set in their mind that a horse and a sword can kill better than an armored giant.

Hell calvary generals still sat around in WWII.

Well there are going to be some who cling to tradition even if it is proven wrong

You can’t stop those people

They're quite die hard.

But the majority move on

Hence why Traditionalists are much harder to convert to the newer things.

Be it scientific advancement for all of humanity
