Our increasingly repressive, authoritarian society- soon to be police
state America - is using the natural revulsion against sexual abuse to
persecute many quite innocuous individuals with all the hypocritical
moral fervor of the Salem Witchcraft Trials.
This is a capitalist society which panders to human sexual lust in every TV and radio commercial. A capitalist society with a billion dollar porn industry. How can any legal team establish the facts about some moral indecency that happened 40 years ago ? And for what purpose ? Justice, catharsis ?
Long ago psychiatrist Wilhelm Reich wrote about the " sexual rights of adolescents " - which , of course, implies the right NOT to be any empowered adult's plaything. Not for nothing George Orwell has the ludicrous " Anti-Sex League " as a force for sexual hysteria in " 1984 ".
Neo-liberal identity politics will soon establish its own version of the " Ministry of Love ".
