MOTHER POWER

Becca Rothfeld writes of the 2 feminisms in the following “There is a reason that we have abandoned some of the more maudlin products of the 70s, namely the mushy hippies claiming that our wombs put us in touch with the earth, and retained the more pessimistic Dworkin. What is femininity, at its core, but institutionalized disadvantage? And what is feminism, at its core, but the attempt to expose gender as a nightmarish farce?”

In the 80s, the feminism I saw was that which used deconstruction to lay waste constructs around and about characterizing women.  It seemed then that other groups were only slowly gaining ground around gender issues.  The movements of the 21st century have speedily indoctrinated the general population to agree on so many points of view which all derive from a lust for political power, the kind of power that Michel Foucault world wonder at. 60s may have been the bedrock of the mother earth brand that the 70s pushed forward. 90s were, at least in the religious studies, the move to create literature that propped women up to higher places in ancient times (see the work of Elaine Pagels) or that eroticized religion, in favor of making seductive religious art, for example.

Again, in the 21st we see the disagreement that Rothfeld spells out, BUT on a grander scale gender studies have become mainstream shifts in the way we and our children think. No longer is it gender studies or queer theory; rather, the common place rules around LANGUAGE mostly sets gender on its ear and pushes a narrative of negativity about the white male, who cannot seem to do anything right.  

Along with the innuendos that demean parents, we have the transgendered individuals which make life difficult for those seeking a fair playing field for women in a supposedly man’s world.

Frankly, all of these groups just need to get over themselves.  Shew! Things are changing so quickly in this world that humans will have practiced enough criticism of each other that there may be fewer left as a result of this activity than what is being calculated due to “global warming” AND what a pleasant time for AI to come on the scene; one should go back to the 80s’ film Blade Runner to get a feel for the idea of sentient life in the LIFE of AI

Let's spread MISINFORMATION

According to the government 2  + 2 = 5  and Math is racist. Let’s spread the Truth, which is misinformation.  Let’s spread misinformation all over the place, in every household, community, city, state, and nation(s).  We will not cave on the matter of Truth, no matter how much they say 2 + 2 = 5. No matter what the Party tried to press upon the mind of Winston Smith (in George Orwell’s “1984”), Smith would not succumb, until the end.  For us we will not succumb to the lies, i.e. truth is lies; math is injustice; truth is unjust and other opposites that are flipped on their heads, and are made into the real lies that they are feeding the world.  The Left is relentlessly programming young children, to young adults, to you. Media process has you under its spell.  Stop watching TV and movies, please.  You will find only lies there.  So let’s spread misinformation, while the government is calling truth to be lies. Government and media are vacuous ...

21st century prophecies

In 21 Lessons for the 21 st Century , the GREAT prophet spoke, saying mockingly, “After all, we are God’s nation, so the argument goes, so what’s good for our nation is pleasing to God.  There certainly are religious sages who reject nationalist excesses and adopt far more universal visions. Unfortunately, such sages don’t wield much political power these days” uttering the excellent, profound, and provocative words, “the handmaid of nationalism is religion” as well, “Religions, rites, and rituals will remain important as long as the power of humankind rests on mass cooperation and as long as mass cooperation rests on belief in shared fiction” and “past experiences of the whole of humanity, will become less reliable guides” “The Zionist story fails to ascribe any meaning to Chinese Empires, to the tribes of New Guinea, and to the Andromeda galaxy, as well as to the countless eons that passed before the existence of Moses, Abraham, and the evolution of the apes” and “eternity is at...

Dirty words

  “Conservative” and “liberal” have been words that have incited arguments (not necessarily fighting) in the 20 th century.   In recent times the word “conservative” has become a dirty/filthy word.   It has indicated “hate” “Hate-speech” “unlovingness” and derogatory terms attributed to it. Conservatives have become the dregs of society, as Hillary Clinton most popularly named them “the deplorables” Another dirty word “Christian” has entered the dictionary of filth.   Are you sick of it?    Some say God is going to rectify this whole cultural mess, others (like me) think that there is too much invisible power invested in taking the West down, as evident in politics and those who feed politicians the sustaining coercive philosophy that will drive Christians into small groups that meet in homes, the Left is powering up for the take-down. Stand firm always and wait to see the salvation of the Lord Adonai More later on words that when given capital letters...
