Joffre Swait: Jezebel’s Rage

Good article by Mark Judge over at The Daily Caller on the deep deep deep seemingly incurable unholy rage young people have against men and fathers in our society, as exemplified by the women of Jezebel.com. This rage exists because fathers are gone.

Deep down, America is a very angry country because of missing, absent, and lousy fathers. The social science is clear and unambiguous about the devastation the loss of fathers causes in terms of drug abuse, promiscuity and loss of self-esteem among young people. The psychological and emotional wounds go very deep.

When reading The Book of Jezebel you are confronted not just with humor and a high level of intelligence, but deep, deep rage. Not anger — rage. It goes much deeper than politics, although in modern America politics is where this rage find its expression. Thus the malevolence towards “dead white males” and the liberal obsession with feelings and personal grievance. The bogus “war on women” is really nothing but liberal women acting out against bad fathers. The frightening thing about this rage is that it is insatiable even as it demands resolution through politics. Before the 1960s and the disintegration of the family, a political revolutionary would map out his plan for correcting the flaws he saw in the political system. Today’s radicals speak in tones that are more personal. Their opponents are not just wrong, or obstacles to get past to attain better living conditions — they are evil, they are guilty, and they are personally culpable for screwing our lives up. Politics can’t cure this wound.

Judge goes on to list several examples of not-anger-RAGE from Jezebel.com’s new book. It’s worth taking a look at the whole article. His conclusion? That this rage is so deep and primal that politics offer no hope of healing or resolution. He suggests no solution.

Enter Jesus Christ and his Church, my brothers.

Consider the rage of your enemies, dear reader, and even as you fight them, have mercy.<> гугла
