Medias claim they want to deradicalise right, but in fact - they divide and radicalise left.

We are looking at the endpoint of the Sexual Revolution.

Societies for thousands of years have had a variety of control systems surrounding sex, because it was recognized that sex is too powerful to "let it be". While sex - when limited by the boundaries of relationship and the networks surrounding relationships - becomes the force which propagates our species, and as such is the ultimate form of creativity, when those boundaries are removed (i.e. the Sexual Revolution), we now see the results.

There is an intimate line separating procreation and sex. Again, this has been known by societies as long as humans have existed. In order for sex to lead to the positives of family and familial support networks, it must be contained; there must be rules.

The entire premise of the Sexual Revolution has been that sex should be free. Any individual should be able to have sex under whatever circumstances they choose.

All the insanity we see follows this basic shift in premise. The revolution will end; in fact, the ending process appears already to have begun. But we now have multiple generations of very damaged people running around and it's going to take a long time to heal the wounds that have their source in the concept of absolute sexual freedom as a human right.
