Gay marriage

I am not sure I would call Rupert’s media ‘right wing’. That is a political position and I am not sure his is.

Rupert seems to believe in the separation of wealth (to the few and hence not to the many), the ascendency of the West over the rest, and the control of politicians.

Its just so happens that right wing politicians are easier to control than left wing politicians, and hence people make the assumption that Rupert is right wing.

As an aside, right wing politicians are easier to control because they inherently are driven by conservative social views which are usually illogical. Finance and politics serve their social agenda. But their social agenda usually does not stand up to logical purview and hence they themselves don’t bother with complete thinking. This makes them more susceptible to practising lying and deceit in order to achieve their goals, which in turn makes them more corruptible by media (& other) interests.

A by-product of all this is that Rupert’s media interests tend to adopt a conservative view on social issues despite the fact that I don’t think Rupert himself cares about these issues. Its just part of the pact he has with his right wing political flunkies. A quid pro quo you might say.

Which is a shame because today the Australian is full of rubbish about gay marriage. I simply do not understand why these people get so worried about this issue. Marriage, by law, is some artificial and relatively recent-day artefact of legislation – just another part of the modern movement towards control and measurement of us all by bureaucracy. Legal marriage is a piece of paper and a few entries in an electronic database, whereas true marriage is a daily event.

Firstly, shame on the idiots on both sides of this debate for taking it so seriously. But it’s not surprising, very few people have the strength of mind required to remove themselves from the vanity fair of the vox populi.

And, secondly, for those opposing gay marriage so vehemently, they really need to get out of other people’s lives. That battle has been lost. Wherefore comes the desire to tell other people what they can and can’t do? I think it’s driven by fear and insecurity on the conservative’s part which can only be assuaged if they have the control to tell people explicitly what acts are permitted and which are not.
