The Liberal Brand: Moral Degeneracy

"Sex work is work."

"Men belong in women's locker rooms."

"Drag Queen Story Hour."

"Pornography is educational."

"Buying sex from children should be a misdemeanor, not a felony."

The left and sexual liberation have always been intimately connected. It's no secret that one of the key tenets of Marxism was sexual "liberation," and when we speak of the sexual revolution, we mostly mean encouraging women to be more sexually available for the pleasure of men. 

Pride parades are typically reenactments of Sodom and Gomorrah; schools are now distributing guides for how to perform sex acts and sign up for gay hookup apps. Children are now encouraged to be drag queens, and school-approved NGOs link up adults and children to discuss sexual matters. 

Cities around the country are legalizing bathhouses again, and major media outlets are featuring sex clubs as the next "hot" thing.

In California, buying sex from children is a misdemeanor, and attempts to increase penalties have been blocked because doing so is seen as targeting the LGBTQIA+ community, which says something I would say. 

State Senator Scott Weiner led a successful campaign to pass a law making prostitution easy and accessible, and ensuring that sex trafficked minors were nearly impossible to get off the streets. Human trafficking is now big business in California, and even residential neighborhoods are finding it nearly impossible to keep prostitutes from roaming the streets or doing business outside schools. 

Children are now being featured as entertainers at gay clubs and drag shows, complete with adults throwing money at them. 

No serious person doubts that allowing men into bathrooms or locker rooms is safe for women or conducive to their privacy. Some brainwashed liberals may believe that, but the advocates don't. Many of those same advocates have wound up arrested for possessing child porn or for child rape. 

The more aggressive advocates are saying it openly, rather than even trying to obfuscate behind various excuses. Children are "sexual beings" and should be encouraged to explore their bodies with adults. 

Alfred Kinsey, who is one of the most celebrated "sexologists" and who is deeply admired on the left, took much of his research on child sexuality from interviews he did with pedophiles in prison. He argued that infants had orgasms and were highly sexual on the word of pedos. 

His reward? A hagiographic movie. 

WPATh relies on sex offenders for advice, and much of our medical establishment looks to WPATH to provide the Gold Standard of care for children. 

Liberals in government provide resources for children to hook up with adults. We fund NGOs that make this all happen, and our libraries spend enormous resources pushing sexual content at kids. 

Sexual degeneracy is, let's face it, one of the key pillars of liberal ideology. It's so  for many reasons, not the least of which is encouraging children to become autonomous from their parents as young as possible. Moral education is being taken out of the hands of parents and churches because they are barriers between children and the state. 

Sexual degeneracy serves another purpose: grounding people in the most basic earthly desires. By elevating pleasure, of any kind, over spiritual matters, we are much easier to lead. 

That is one of the key lessons of Brave New World. Being steeped in a fog of pleasure and desire turns us into moral automatons. 

Nietzsche called these people the "Last Man." People so morally stunted that they become like sheep. 

Obviously, for the Scott Weiners of the world, this is a good thing. They can become the shephards, leading us to the slaughter.
