Is Porn the Embodiment of the Liberal Political Agenda?

Porn addiction, like all addictions, ruin relationships. And like drug use, these are not victimless crimes. And I don’t mean crime in the legal sense. More its impact on the foundation of the culture and the nation. One built on families whose survival demands certain morals and values.

The idea that freedom is merely the ability to act upon one’s whims is surely very thin and hardly begins to capture the complexities of human existence; a man whose appetite is his law strikes us not as liberated but enslaved. And when such a narrowly conceived freedom is made the touchstone of public policy, a dissolution of society is bound to follow.

In other words, “if we fail to master our appetites, they will enslave us.” Now think about the political left’s goals (economic slavery) and balance that against their policies and priorities. 

Does promoting porn fit nicely? 

In the Beginning…

The left’s war on marriage has never been about who you love. Anyone with an ounce of sense knows the Left loves nothing more than power. So, Democrats are not interested in ending discrimination, protecting your dignity, or promoting human rights. They are interested in authority and control.

Strong relationships create healthy families that lead to healthy communities. Millions of self-functioning units across the 50 states committed to the idea that the state answers to them, not the other way around. Marxism cannot flourish here while these institutions stand. Political control requires dependence.

So, the social justice siege engines line up against the walls of American civilization – battering the foundations of relationships. And Pornography has advanced to the forefront as an opportunity to tear down more barriers. How do we know this? Common sense

Pornography is an addiction. The pleasure derived from it is neurochemical, no different than any other pharmaceutical high. Men are particularly susceptible. And the culture continues to shift towards a society where porn is like aspirin.

It rewires the way your brain interprets arousal signals. It weakens the ability to form and keep meaningful emotional relationships. And it should not surprise us that the free sex movement expanded into the gender agenda as another opiate for the masses. Not only should you consider having sex before marriage, but you should also consider sex before everything else. It should define you. Anyone who disagrees is bad.

People Obsessed with Sex will Consume Porn

Rolling Stone recently published an article to aid the cause of the left. Men who abstain from porn are dangerous alt-rightersIf you think Porn is bad for your brain or your future, you’re fascist. Seriously?

So, Porn-on, game on, leftwingers rule? Women in porn are treated and portrayed like objects or property. 

It is an industry that thrives on human exploitation and trafficking. It abuses women, often gets them addicted to alcohol and drugs, presents them as sex objects, “rapes” them repeatedly for profit, then discards them for younger women a few years later.

Porn could be the embodiment of the liberal political agenda. That set of priorities whose goal is to get society addicted to promised harmless pleasures at the expense of others so that it can then rape them economically for the benefit a few. Then toss them aside.

One critical difference? Even after being discarded you can’t stop being ruled by Marxists. You can’t just step back and recover from totalitarian rule or find a social or economic safe space. That’s the point. There’s no therapy or treatment program — no counseling or recovery. The only escape from what the left has planned, once in place, is a violent revolution.

It’s not an alt-right thing. The real Alt-right is more Alt-left. This is an individual liberty thing. And sometimes, often, actually, it requires someone willing stand-up and remind folks about the dark side, the left side, of politics. It’s bad for you, your culture, your liberty, and your nation.
