601. "ALTERNATIVE FACTS" AND THE SEXUAL REVOLUTION by un'Americana a Venezia

Do you ever feel like a voyeur while watching TV?  Do you find the "twerking" of participants in Gay Pride parades obnoxious, not to mention the whorish attitude of most pop stars?  Is the gratuitously foul language in screenplays starting to get on your nerves?  Last but not least, does it bother you to hear a pregnant womb called a "baby bump"? If so, you're not a fuddy-duddy.  Your reactions to such things as immodesty, indecency, volgarity and obscenity are perfectly natural.  Perhaps, like me, you remember when the meaning of such words was generally agreed upon.       This post will attempt to explain how it happened that what was once taboo, even illegal, has been normalized, and why we take indecency for granted today.  Let me warn you in advance, this post may not be pleasant reading.  Hopefully, it will open your eyes forever.  There was indeed a defining moment in modern American history that arguably succeeded in undermining Judaic-Christian values regarding the family and sexual mores.  That moment impacted U.S. laws and beyond, so that today, children grow up in the midst of unrestrained media that promote salacious entertainment and the worst kind of deviance. A stark example of media-promoted deviance was an MTV video from 2015 which proposed a scene straight out of a snuff movie, that is, sadomasochistic pornography ending with the death of the victim.  That one example of demonic mind pollution has already chalked up over 100 million views on YouTube.  Clearly, moral standards for the media, at least for MTV, have been completely trashed.  What has happened in the USA over the past sixty years has been replicating elsewhere.  We now see the breakdown of the family in many predominantly Christian countries, a trend provoked by easy attitudes towards adultery and divorce.  In 1972, a married couple, the O'Neills, proposed socially acceptable adultery in Chapter 16 of their best selling book Open Marriage.  Nothing else they said in that book stuck in the public's imagination, so that cheating on one's partner began to sound like a valid excuse for "personal growth."  Can it be any coincidence that the divorce rate rose in that period? Half of all first-time marriages in the USA fail today.  The terms premarital sex and casual sex are now antiquated.  For many, virginity and chastity represent stigma rather than virtue.  We have reached the point where teens are routinely vaccinated against sexually transmitted viruses.  Tolerance of what used to be called pornography is another indicator of relaxed norms, while sexual tourism, human trafficking, gang rape, sadomasochistic games ending in accidental deaths, epidemics of sexually transmitted diseases and promiscuity among teens are all clear signs of the damage being done to humane values worldwide.  Abortion on demand, child abuse and child pornography are the final proof of increasing moral and spiritual bankruptcy.  Life, starting in the womb, is no longer defended as sacred.  The innocence of impressionable children is no longer something to be protected.  The neglect, abuse and murder of the weakest members of society are the horrific outcome of the degradation of moral and ethical standards today. On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court case known as Roe v. Wade legalized abortion in the USA.  Until then, American women, including unmarried teens, had already gained  discreet access to birth control methods, the Pill above all, at specialized clinics.  Now they could have abortions as well.  Since 1973, over 58,000,000 human lives in the womb have been sacrificed, the remains of the unborn often being sold to cover costs. I said that I would attempt to explain how these radical changes to our values and our laws began.  I will go back to 1946, with the co-founder of the World Federation of Mental Health, G. Brock Chisholm, who then advocated a single world government, announcing to an auditorium full of psychologists that in order to effect its creation, the following values would have to be eliminated from the hearts and minds of the population:  individualism, loyalty to the family tradition, patriotism, and religious dogmas.  Soon after, the Rockefeller Foundation funded a research study on human sexuality conducted by Indiana University's Dr. Alfred Kinsey (1894-1956), a zoologist and biologist who referred to his subjects as "human animals."  Kinsey created the Institute  for Sex Research in early 1947, renamed the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction in 1981.  Widely recognized as "the father of the sexual revolution," Alfred Kinsey was a married bisexual and father of four who had a distinct preference for boys.  A sadomasochist, Kinsey may have fatally injured himself in his quest for ever greater pain.  Kinsey's conclusions at the end of his official reports about male and female sexuality, respectively released in 1948 and 1953, jibed perfectly with Chisholm's plan to eliminate loyalty to the family tradition and religious dogmas.  They impacted individualism as well, considering that each person's conscience is his or her own, especially regarding sex.  Kinsey, however, dared to prescribe a new normality for everyone, forgetting conscience.      Kinsey's reports also jibed with the philosophy of a famous Satanist named Crowley who once said something to the effect that, "If it feels good, do it."  That phrase was much used in the 60's and 70's, at the very height of the "sexual revolution".  It was eventually shown that Kinsey failed on four of six major standards for statistical research. 

The Rockefeller Foundation then withdrew its support of Kinsey based on criticisms of his method as denounced by leading academics.  Nonetheless, following the much publicized release of his reports, Kinsey became known as "Dr. Sex", America's first sexologist.  The media embraced him and he got instant attention.       The findings of the Kinsey Reports were considered revolutionary, both in the USA and abroad, but they were full of "alternative facts," today's term for untrue statements.  Kinsey's samples, supposedly reflecting the sexual habits of average men and women, did not reflect the sex lives of average people at all.  Herein lay the fraud. Despite glaring errors, Kinsey's so-called findings were the basis for the first changes made to U.S. laws regarding sodomy, homosexuality, adultery, divorce, pornography, obscenity and even abortion, a "medical procedure" which Kinsey defended. Kinsey first claimed in 1948 that 95% of "average American men" had already violated then-existing sex crime laws.  That assertion alone was faulty.  His total sample in the 1948 report of "about 5,300" white males included 1,400 imprisoned sex offenders and at least 317 sexually abused children!  Of the total interviewed, 75% of the men had volunteered to give their sexual histories.  Statistics demonstrate that in surveys on sex, volunteers are always more sexually active than non-volunteers.  Hence, "normality" was thrown to the wind from the outset. More important, Kinsey had interviewed an inordinately large number of homosexuals.  One of his co-authors has said on camera that over half of the men in the total sample had been interviewed while they were in prison.   Hugh Hefner of Playboy magazine, first published in 1953, subscribed fully to Kinsey.  Perhaps Hefner's pornographic contribution to American culture was not mere coincidence.  In the past, at least one of Hefner's cartoons went so far as to feature a pedophiliac message, an intimate Kinsey theme.  Kinsey claimed that "human animals" are born orgasmic, this based on "research" involving children as young as two-months-old who were abused for Kinsey by paid pedophiles, including their own fathers and grandfathers.  Kinsey then went on to claim that rape was a victimless crime.  The thousands of victims of rape he had interviewed "were not seriously damaged" from the experience, he insisted.  Were it not for the courage of whistleblower Dr. Judith Reisman, author of Sexual Sabotage and several other volumes dealing with Kinsey, in addition to the criticisms of Kinsey's findings by other outspoken observers, and for the tragic testimony of at least one of Kinsey's child victims, no one would know anything about "the mess in the backyard of American science," as author Dr. J. Gordon Muir has put it.  Thanks to Kinsey and Hefner, pornography was quickly normalized.  Then came Hefner's Playboy Club in 1960.  Soon topless bars followed, along with more and more strip clubs and sex shops.  Ads for "art films," once code for porn, appeared in daily newspapers.  Suddenly nothing was too scabrous for public consumption, not

even themes of rape and murder.  In 1989 a libel case regarding the First Amendment rights of a much more explicit publication than Playboy, Larry Flynt's Hustler, determined whether there are limits to sexually offensive "satire" in the USA.  Flynt, self-described as a "smut peddler," won his case at the level of the Supreme Court.  Hustler v. Falwell practically guaranteed that foul-mouthed comedians, for example, can denigrate anyone they please, even beyond the limits of obscenity.  In other words, public obscenity was suddenly legal in the USA.  The so-called father of the sexual revolution was portrayed by Liam Neeson in a 2004 movie, "Kinsey", that did not tell even half of the story.  The truly obscene parts were left out.  The self-immolation, the psychopathy.  The paid pedophiles.  Finding out the other half of the story, thanks to the material now available on Internet, has been useful to me in finally coming to understand how it is that we live in such a decadent era.  This is a time of dangerously passive "mommy porn," and to think that Kinsey never once mentioned the word "motherhood" in his 1953 report on female sexuality.  This is an era in which teachers of both sexes as well as members of the clergy are shockingly capable of the sexual abuse of minors.  We live in a time when most children in the West are not free to play in the streets of their communities, for fear of their disappearing; when pre-adolescents and teenagers are increasingly jaded and suicidal; when women are increasingly assaulted by their own partners; when almost no one feels safe after dark.  We are afraid to tell the truth about the hellish state of our culture because we have been bullied by our own laws and the attitudes of our media into accepting the unacceptable!  In the name of what?  The freedom to be "human animals," in Kinsey's own terms?    America let the "alternative facts" of a psychopath condition American society, and perhaps most of the rest of the world, into accepting a broken moral compass.  Short of expecting to be readmitted to the Garden of Eden, it's high time to retrace our steps. UN'AMERICANA  A VENEZIA
