DINOcrat Solutions Further Dominionist Agendas

Oliver Willis notes the stampede of the "me, too" DINOcrats to emulate the Wrepublican stance in attacking those Hollywood libertines.

Moralizing DINOcrats like Sullivan fall into the same category as Luddite DINOcrats like Kunstler.

They're right about some things: the soft- and hard-commercial sex industry is exploitive, and we are running out of fossil fuels.

But their solutions are dead wrong, their arguments use disinformation, and their attitude is contrary to democracy.

You take the wind out of the porn industry by taking the money out of it, not by squelching free speech and throwing loose people in jail.

You solve the energy problem by developing viable alternatives that are already out there, not by throwing up your hands and meekly returning to a pre-industrial agrarian (read feudal master and serf/slave ) society.

Sullivan, Kunstler, and by extension Lieberman and Nader, are wrong headed and DINOcrat and serving the Rovian Wrepublican Dominionist agenda.

I think you need a poem:

GO and catch a falling star,
Get with child a mandrake root,
Tell me where all past years are,
Or who cleft the devil's foot,
Teach me to hear mermaids singing,
Or to keep off envy's stinging,
And find
What wind
Serves to advance an honest mind.

If thou be'st born to strange sights,
Things invisible to see,
Ride ten thousand days and nights,
Till age snow white hairs on thee,
Thou, when thou return'st, wilt tell me,
All strange wonders that befell thee,
And swear,
No where
Lives a woman true and fair.

If thou find'st one, let me know,
Such a pilgrimage were sweet;
Yet do not, I would not go,
Though at next door we might meet,
Though she were true, when you met her,
And last, till you write your letter,
Yet she
Will be
False, ere I come, to two, or three.

There is passion for the wonders of this world.
But look for a woman to be as a man.
To follow her needs, and to live on the Earth.
Give faith to the timeless and real.
