Modern Era Love

J. R. Emry

Love as a dying anachronism. The human replaced in all musterable vigour through that descension into the post-human. The post-human concerns itself not with the likes of love, but instead with its daily, if not hourly, orgies; love as cannibalism of the other, the mutilation of the self, and the destruction of the person as phenomena. “Eros demoted from god to buffoon” (Gallagher 207). Yet, indeed, Eros upheld as the maxim of love, so that none other love may remain at all.

The production of the post-human by the removal of the heart; the making of the individual. The person as defined by the relation to the other. The individual as that which is demarcated from the other is set distant from the person. Individualization, an act of despair by which the self is systematically destroyed in pursuit of living suicide, if not suicide proper. The radical individual as the willful un-person. The leveling of person to the individual by equal measures as the removal of the second story from a house; a reduction away from higher orders (Stern). A leveling proceeding from the basis that a person is systematically taught to recognize significance from demarcation and by their own humanity see the similarity of human nature in others — thus to see insignificance in the self. In insignificance — despair! The person demarcates away humanity for significance; the removal of the heart to be without a chest (Lewis). From human to post-human, ever greater individualization sought by the increasing of category and selection to the infinite. No longer content to man or woman, the boundaries artificially blurred and the content within rendered meaningless. The phenomena of personal death, that is spiritual death, as result of the love of self, wherein that love is hatred.

In making the self a void of the person, the newfound individual inflicts mutilation by means of the laceration on some, if not all, aspects of their being. The infliction on the heart immediate by degree of laceration by even mere thought. The infliction on the mind immediate by degree of laceration. The psyche escapes from nothing. The infliction of the body by laceration of the flesh taken at any subsequent time. The so-called “sex change” as the culmination of three kinds of lacerations; the unmaking and destruction of the body to make in accord with the unmaking and destruction of the mind for reason of furthering the unmaking and destruction of the heart. To make what isn’t of what is. To make what shouldn’t of what should. Love of the self, wherein that love is hatred, defined by cruelty brutality against the self.

The sexual revolution having already taken root by the onset of the digital age finds amplification and completion of the pornographization of all culture. That what the hippies of the 1960s called “Free Love,” that polymorphic perversity, the idea therein that authoritarianism is the result of sexual repression thus that the subjugation of all to the sexual act even at the most base as a means to an end and the end contained in itself. The sexual revolution aims for dissonance and the disassociation of sex from all reality; the breakdown of the human spirit by means of the divorce of the body and the brain, reducing all to mere calculators and copulaters.  Feminism as the end of the female; setting forth the corrupted male as the ideal for both sexes. Homosexualism as the end of the relation; setting forth the dehumanized object as the ideal for both sexes. Once an act of creation, intercourse is reduced to an onanism, stagnant and infertile. As the most basic act of creation, reproduction is eroded, by necessity all acts of creation replaced by the fruitless. No longer will order be brought forth out of chaos. All the arts become impotent pornographies; bombastic in their obscenities. “They castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful” (Lewis 26). The fundamental goal of art changed from beauty to revolution; the malicious revolution against all existence. The distinction between the post-human and the mass murderer only differentiated by passivity. The inversion of the object with the subject as means of moral inversion necessitated by the creation of the individual from the death of the person. The dead abhor the living and so act as cannibals. In this way, the observance of feminism is absolutely equivalent to self-depersonalization; the integration of the former into society as equivalent to the leveling of all in society to inhuman states.  In this way, the support of homosexualism is absolutely equivalent to the support of pedophilia; the acceptance of the former the acceptance of the latter. This as the love of the other, wherein that love is hatred, defined by cruelty and brutality.

The post-human seeks the destruction of the human in others and the self. This destruction claimed as an act of love all the while blurring the heart between the body and mind until it dissipates. The mind for the disconnect of the presence by distraction, by amusement, by fun as an end to itself. The body by means of the gratification of the passions at the instant. All made digital for the heart is analog. Here, beyond good and evil, civilization is known to be dead. All events are proceeded by prophecy, herein the physical death shall follow this spiritual death. “You may suddenly understand it all someday — but only when you yourselves hear “hand behind your back there!” and step ashore on our Archipelago” (Solzhenitsyn 518).
