That was very helpful, thank you from a brother in Canada. Identity politics is a live and well in This land. Looks like we maybe considering a different path considering the last government instalment. If the is a new leadership and country I sure hope and pray they get the covenant thing right! Shalom
Having read through this now again and thought about it more closely, I think your major issue is egalitarianism. Your correct that all men are united in sin, but not all men are equally sinful nor have they been corrupted equally by sin. Your native brown savages and their relation to each other really has no bearing on Europeans. Europeans weren’t eating each other and as a whole they weren’t disintegratorily tribal as your brown savages were. So you’re analogy doesn’t stand or have any weight to Europeans. You’re wrong about covenant properly building tribes. Tribes have been properly built and ordered for millennia. Now the gospel provides the tell us for the tribe, but it doesn’t properly build the tribe. Natural law does. As an example I offer the fact that families have existed without the gospel for millennia. What the gospel does is bring a proper tell us to the family and thus gives its glory.
I'm not going to spend time arguing with a self-confessed white nationalist. Your ideas about pre-Christian Europeans are laughably ahistorical for one thing. But I will point out that natural law, by definition, is a covenant. Natural law is just a term describing the covenantal regularites God has imposed on created things in view of their teloi. You haven't understood anything I've written.
Sooo good.

Nonsense false dichotomy
Was there an argument to go along with that assertion?

That is what I was thinking.
Ethnic blood and soil cannot be set against Christ blood and kingdom. Asserting that is nonsense.
