Reneé Guénon made this point in the 20th century, I would be surprised if he was the first person to do so. Guénon himself goes to back to Plato to explain why our ideas are so dangerous. He was right unfortunately, our belief system in the West is built on the idea of nominalism, and it is endlessly destructive. If you believe labels are artificial, man, woman, child, and don’t reflect an underlying reality and connection, there will ultimately be no order to society. The culture will instead destroy all of the bonds that glued us together. Liberalism (nominalism) killed the aristocracy and destroyed the church in the West, but as we see now, it’s destroying the very idea of human connection and gender. Logically this process will continue until society is so damaged that it cannot continue.
You clearly have a problem with evil western things like Enlightenment values, empiricism, rationalism, etc.
It’s obvious you prefer the occultism and mysticism of the East. Please. fricking go and don’t look back. I don’t know what the frick happened in your life to make you so ill, but you are in the wrong place.

Liberalism has some benefits over the short term, but over the long term it’s just incredibly destructive. It even destroys itself. There’s a reason Plato wanted to burn all works about nominalism.
Realism on the other hand is a positive and stable basis for society.
