"Love" is a pretty poor word. The issue is that every twat born after Marx in the Anglosphere latched onto "love." Our entire global politics is based on "love."
Of course. The propensity of the enemy to invert is especially present in language.
That's why every inch is worth fighting for. Because you don't know what the proverbial mile is behind it. It's why "conservatism" is a false ideology that leads only to failure, an ideology of constant retreat.
I was raised in a mid-90s evangelical church. It kindda sucked for me because it was all personal prophesy and scriptural interpretation. It wasn't their fault, but a sect based on every last dude's interpretation is hard. To over-simplify, I was 30 before I learned Christianity had a 2 millennia history of moral theory.
What really hit me hard after my Confirmation, was that ideas like "Satanic inversion" didn't seem as far fetched as I remember as a kid in a Evangelical church. That was probably because I had read fucking Foucault who liked to fuck slave boys and had a large influence on modern ideas of sexuality.
My personal discovery of the rot, so to speak, was the revelation that an enormous amount of the SFF author community were hardcore pedophile cultists.
I encourage everyone to read The Last Closet.
Vox was talking about that book and the sci fi/fantasy author community again the other week yeah, another couple of creeps were revealed IIRC
My discovery was the 2016 election and seeing the fucked up art. The spirit cooking yes, but more the shit the podestas and pizza stores in washington have hanging on their walls. Absolute freaks, evil is real and it has its grips on powerful people.
The fact that we use only one word to describe multiple, complex concepts has ruined it. Philia, Agape, Eros, we all know what the terms described mean, but then everything gets lumped into one, basic "Love is love" which muddies the waters beyond recognition.
Love is actually a good word, the issue is that it has been bastardized. Love is best understood as the sacral nature of your duty of care towards another.
This is why in the marriage vows, God's love for the church, and the church's love for God are understood as "love", as an obligation that each have to one another, and the sacredness of them.
None of our global politics is based on love. These terms are intentionally re-defined.
When the Left use the term "Love" they mean: enabling.
