Here's Why We're All Doomed (Excerpt)
In a deranged world, mental illness is positively reinforced. The environment no longer provides health cues or unscripted exposure therapy.
In such a dystopian bedlam, narcissism is a value, self-harming with sex and substances is empowering fun, and magical thinking is the only touted strategy.
The contemporary war between the genders is a private case of this mass insanity. The locus of intimacy has shifted: it is no longer associated with sex - only with talking and with light touching.
Avoiding or postponing sex now signals being serious about a partner one finds likable or loves, a state of sobriety, and having committed to a relationship.
Men and women hate each other, true. But everyone hate everybody else. Ideology trumps science. Power is the holy grail, not love. Victimhood supplanted dignity.
Self-centredness has utterly uprooted communality. Aggressive, even violent tribalism and partisanship rip us asunder.
Higher education teaches nothing useful and inculcates self-harm and infantilism in its tender charges. Students have taken over, as in replay of Mao’s Cultural Revolution.
In such a toxic cesspool writ large, certain mental proclivities - such as owning a dark triad personality - have become positive adaptations, something to aspire to.
