My favorite weirdness this week was realizing how few are going to draw the blatant parallel between the dickless prudery of the Taliban* and the purse-lipped schoolmarms of the Correct Thought Inquisition in the west.
The only differences between them are differences of degree, and those few degrees of difference exist only because of resistance from men whose testicles have actually dropped.
*They cannot possibly have thumb-sized dicks and want their women so trapped.
"Dickless prudery" needs to be a more commonly used expression, it's a good one.
I do wonder how much of the Taliban's behaviour is prudish, and how much is just small-minded control-freak authoritarianism. The language around it seems fear-based as well, as if a woman with an exposed face and a voice they can hear would somehow overwhelm their self-control and leave them defenceless against her (unintentional) wiles.
Since the UK hate law doesn't require evidence of harm, let's flip the script on the politicians.
Every politician that supports the genocide in the middle east should be reported to the police for hate crimes against a race/religion.
The over reaction in the UK with this law is ridiculous and I'm surprised that it's happening now, not really much during covid however... It's almost like they're making the system look so bad that it's going to bring in the next system.
In other words, the decades of 1984 (Orwell wrote it about his time BTW) is coming to a close in favor of Brave New World. We're moving from the fear and shock control system into a "positive" system. I think they run out of shocks to keep us in line in this highly connected world....
First step is to get rid of the corruption of pharma and the medical industry. Sell out the profiteers and murderers and bring in real science. Then, they can bring in the drugs that make people happy and make sure people get the basics without going broke. That would create the foundation for a new type of societal control, not using shocks but positive reinforcement.
To think of it, Brave New World didn't sound too bad. If one didn't want to be part of the system, they were allowed to live outside of it.
Soma: imagine a systemic regimentation plan that gave a crap about the population’s well-being and contentment. I’d trade it for watching this one blow babies apart and turn the bits to charcoal.
