The
morals and values of our Western culture did not depend solely on
Christian values, before religion was even created or consulted real
human nature related well to traditional religion in being
kin-centered, gender defined, age-grading, heterosexual
marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, among
other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of
selection.
Not that long ago characters in the entertainment
media could be bad, but we wanted well drawn believable bad
characters to show us how well drawn good characters were superior.
Not any more. Now it's strait decadence and decay for the sake of
decadence and decay. Reviewer's now actually criticize characters for
being “hemmed in” by invisible moral boundaries, amoral
protagonists are celebrated for boldly breaking all the ethical
rules.
Some of this celebration of garbage has to do with the
lack of courage of nerdy writers to go against fashionable trends,
and some may come from a direct desire to destroy traditional morals,
but most of it comes for the cultural Marxism (political correctness)
taught throughout our college and university systems which allows no
moral judgments, other than being against those who make any moral
judgments.
The entertainment media is far more powerful and
influential in a negative way than many of us thought it could be.
Whether this means breaking up the media monopolies or building up
our own media along side their monstrous media, remains to be seen.
Meanwhile we sink further into the garbage, and no good guys are
allowed. How can we change things! I am an American patriot and I
don't advocate fascism, but it is becoming easier to understand how
the fascists of the last century could scream in frustration over
the destructive media in their societies.
