And that's just about it for Jesus memes for this week.

Sweden

The left is always telling us what a paradise Sweden is, and how we need to be more like them. Well, here's a longish thread that casts some doubt on how much truth there is behind that. Frankly, what's described here is terrifying, a nation of people who aren't individuals at all, but faceless cogs for the state to manipulate (wait, now I'm starting to see why the left likes Sweden). The thread ends by noting that Swedish is the only language that has a word that means “to cry while masturbating” - Gatrunka.

The tragic — and overlooked — fallout from the ’60s sexual revolution

Look, I'll be the first to admit that my generation (coming of age in the 80s) hit the sweet spot for the sexual revolution – sexually active and free, but we had been raised by an earlier generation that still taught us traditional values. The Reagan Renaissance was reinforcing those values. We all had a lot of sex, but we also respected our partners and most of us still had an eye towards a spouse, a house and 2.4 vine-covered kids in the suburbs (yes, I'm generalizing massively here). Seems that we dropped the ball with our own kids, failing to pass on the traditional values and leaving them with just the “have lots of guilt-free sex” part, and that generation is producing kids that are totally lost, emptied out not just by meaningless sex, but also by a society that not only doesn't foster traditional values, it actively condemns them and pushes the opposite as a good thing. We're all hanging by our undies from Chesterton's Fence.
