>>2425188>>2425821Traditional outdoors culture is like any traditional culture: it requires constant maintenance and reinvestment over generations, often with institutions guiding this process (BSA/GSA).
Now, most people going innawoods have never been in the Scouts, have never read Thoreau or Muir, and have learned everything from Instagram and Youtube, which share the corporate culture.
Pimping gear and lounging about in your designer clothes are far more integral than LNT, seclusion, and being with nature for its own sake.
Then there's the scouts, which have fallen into corporate culture as well now, so you're losing that:
>a "unanimous consensus" ... retaining the current policy [no gays]. Intel, UPS, and Merck cut financial ties with the BSA over the policy decision. Within the BSA National Executive Board, members James Turley, CEO of Ernst & Young, and Randall Stephenson, CEO of AT&T and who was then "on track to become president of the Scout's national board in 2014" and later was, publicly opposed the policy and stated their intention "to work from within the BSA Board to actively encourage dialogue and sustainable progress"BSA followed its traditions and corporate America cracked down, 2 years later, ban lifted by Robert Gates, glowiest of the glows.
>In May 2015, Boy Scouts of America President Robert Gates said it was time to end the ban on gay leaders.>On January 30, 2017, the Boy Scouts of America announced that transgender children...>On October 11, 2017, the Boy Scouts of America announced that girls...There once was a traditional, Christian outdoors cultural institution...
>Membership for the BSA’s flagship Cub Scouts and Scouts BSA programs dropped from 1.97 million in 2019 to ... 762,000. They doesn't care, destroying the organization was likely their primary goal.
You can't have a large institution indoctrinating children on traditional values and self-reliance.
That's completely at odds with the corporate state's job of indoctrination.
