Put Down The "Play Book" Doug W

As long as we are on the subject as my favorite radio host Lionel (WOR 710 11PM-1AM M-F) puts it, "put down the right-wing play book". Expand your sources of infomation, even on controvesial and uncomfortable subjects as (sadly) open discussion of the sex/porno industry is in this country. Also let me give you some apolitical advice, it never hurts to know what the thinking on the other side is on any given issues.

An excerpt:

"Capitalism creates a massive sex industry. It does this by creating a huge supply of poor women, and increasing numbers of men and children, who have to work to survive. "Legitimate" jobs on rock bottom wages come and go with the flow of capital. At the same time, capitalism continues to distort sexuality, forcing people to conform to the heterosexual monogamous norm or face stigma and repression.

Despite major changes in sexuality and gender politics in recent decades in the west, sex is still not really tolerated outside of relationships linked to homes and children. In a society where everything can be bought or sold, it is no surprise that men frequently turn to a commercial option: pay for sex rather than get embroiled in a long-term relationship. Women don't - they have neither the money nor probably the inclination. Men are expected to "need" sex. Women are not.

So having created a massive supply of people needing work, and demand for sex as a commodity, it is no surprise that capitalism has this large sex industry. But even the most pro-market neo-liberal governments find it difficult to embrace the industry fully. So they continue to regard it as essentially a moral question in which the participants are blamed for some inherent weakness."

What kind of apolitical advice centers on the other side? Besides, I know what the “other side” is thinking on every single issue – America sucks. That’s the definition of those I oppose. You’ve just proved it again with this tripe. This article you quote is the biggest pile of stinking manure you have yet foisted on this board. I’m not even going to bother fisking this pile of demented filth. Is this really the kind of gobbledy-gook you subscribe to, you commie s***?

If you love the socialist approach to the sex trade, check out Germany’s solution to welfare, forcing woman down and out to become whores. Yeah, that’s your enlightened future, you puke.

Lionel is a blowhard ignoramus.

Those of us who love and support this country and who realize how blessed we are to be here are used to being called fascists by her enemies. It becomes background noise after a while, like the familiar yapping of a neighbor’s dog; annoying, but lacking any real meaning. I actually have come to consider it a complement when spewed in rage and frustration by the hate-America, commie Left when they’re exposed. The addition of, ”no good”, to the label stings, I must admit.

So, will I let him? Of course! I seek it. That’s what I’m shooting for. All of my heroes suffer the same treatment – Limbaugh, Bush, Ashcroft, Coulter, Scalia, Rumsfeld. I have arrived!
