Ecosexuals Believe Having Sex with the Earth Could Save It
« on: November 02, 2016, 08:03:25 pm »
It is as weird as it sounds...

Quote
If you happen to find yourself in Sydney this week, you have the unique opportunity to have sex with the earth. You just need to stop by the "ecosexual bathhouse," which is currently part of the Syndey LiveWorks Festival of experimental art. The bathhouse is an interactive installation created by artists Loren Kronemyer and Ian Sinclair of Pony Express, who described the work to me as a "no-holds-barred extravaganza meant to dissolve the barriers between species as we descend into oblivion" as the result of our global environmental crisis. But they also see their piece as a part of a much larger ecosexual movement, which they say is gathering momentum around the world....

Satire? I mean I like the great outdoors, but only as friends you know...

Real men prefer Venus.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

I remember when "just another f***ing rock" was just an expression...
How God must weep at humans' folly! Stand fast! God knows what he is doing!
Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

So...let's think this through.  In today's "rape culture," it's imperative to get overt permission before initiating sexual relations.  So how do these ecosexuals do that?  I'm pretty sure having someone other than the partner him, her, or itself giving that permission is a non-starter.  Having come to that conclusion, there's only one possible corollary; ecosexuals are raping Mother Earth!
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!

Thought just occurred to me. Does this have anything to do with DiCaprio and that bear?  :nono:

This is a great example of the mind-numbingly stupid and narcissistic emoting that currently passes for thinking.  Seriously, "If I have sex with ___ it will save it"?  How stupid and narcissistic is that?

Sounds like something out of the Judd Apatow movie "Wanderlust". That's what the left does - take insane things that in another age would have universally been laughed at or caused eye rolls (ideas like, "We can control the weather", and "people are whatever gender they say they are," or "we need to pass the law to find out what's in it") and treat them as if they are perfectly normal and good. Deviance made into an institution.

What WFB's colleague Joseph Sobran called, "Alienism - to embrace any  and every outlandish, strange, weird, utterly-twisted notion/philosophy/culture as a replacement for one's own".   

Leftists pushed a dialectic where deviance was at first tolerated, then accepted, then lauded and now it must be as held as exemplary and superior or anyone who won't is labeled intolerant and mercilessly persecuted.

The other aspect of that is that the Left routinely uses their extremists to make their normally extreme take on policy seem "normal" by comparison. The Republicans have been shoving the Constitutionists and other "ultra conservatives" out the door and not balancing their shtick with demands for a Constitutional government, so they keep getting dragged leftward in 'compromises'. It's a major screwup, and it has been going on for decades.

Brilliant analysis. Dead spot on.
