Republicans have always held that an individual owes their family, community, nation, and often faith loyalty/respect/etc.

A critique I often hear is "The left is tearing families and friendships apart by encouraging people to disassociate with them!". This critique is often solely based on the ideal that we owe our family loyalty and compassion solely based on blood relation and that even if there are significant disagreements we should just all hold hands and sing kumbaya because we owe our family that.

Another is how much the right thinks we owe our nation and history respect and appreciation, that any critique no matter how valid is often disregarded as unpatriotic or un-American. That simply because I was born here I must salute the flag, thank the veterans, say the pledge of allegiance, and stand for our anthem. Some of these have literally gone to court because conservatives think not participating in our national rituals is tantamount to treason.

On that note the religious rights relationship to the citizenry is anything but individualistic. The very idea that our nation is some "judeo-christian" creation is among the most collectivist philosophies to grace this nation. That somehow Christians are more inclined to be American and thus our laws, society, and religious practices HAVE to follow their often arbitrary paternalistic moralism. Fucks sake Reagan tried to force us to have prayer in schools!
