Just a horrific case from the comments:
Stockton Animal Services Division is investigating a horrific case of a possible business involving renting dogs for sex.
A group called Second Chance Kitty brought three dogs in to Venetian Pet Hospital in Stockton.
Through an examination, veterinarians found that two of the dogs had severe damage and had been sexually abused, including the use of foreign objects.
Volunteers with Second Chance Kitty heard from neighbors and people in the community like Lizet Avila that the dogs were being rented for sex.
You would not have seen this story in the fifties.
As the amygdala atrophies, it tends to seek more disgusting and shocking experiences to initiate sexual arousal. Also as it atrophies, the forces which constrain behavior and motivate empathy and morality wane as well. We call it sexual deviancy, but it is really a measure of amygdala deterioration.
Notice, the r-strategist will claim empathy, but in the end they so crave free resources and dopamine, and so lack the amygdala development that produces empathy, that the claim is usually merely social posturing to grease the rails of free resources and ease.
There is also an element of evil, when you enter this realm. For some reason, there is a desire to find good, and cause it pain. It reminds me of this Rugby player, who wanted to find a father who would let him rape his son, and then have other men join him in the rape. He wanted that because it was the trauma, and the evil which was his end goal. This transcends mere obliviousness to the pain they cause. The pain is their day-job.
There is a reason sexual deviancy was a hallmark of the fall of Rome. And there is a reason we are seeing it again today.
Our very own Apocalypse is coming.
You could tell friends about r/K Theory, because we can’t rely on liberal empathy
[…] Bestiality As A Sign of r-selection […]
It’s interesting to consider the relation of this to prohibitions against homosexuality. Maybe the different cultures that had that knew more than they wrote down about how r-selection is related to bad behavior? After all the Bible condemns homosexuality but doesn’t give scientific or medical justification. Maybe it just happened that tribes that prohibited it were more successful and hence it became practice.
I suspect so, but it may even run deeper. Millions of years of evolution have programmed K’s to prepare for the harshness, and given them a suite of behaviors and tastes to guide them. We don’t have in our heads a detailed reason why two guy kissing should gross us out, but we see it and we don’t want that in our group.
WTF???!!!!
You’re triggering me, bro.
I remember reading the Bible as young man, the story of what happened to Sodom and Gamorrah; trying to wrap my head around the concept of a people SO debauched and perverted, God found it necessary to rain fire and brimstone upon them all.
I think I understand it better now.
Same with The Flood: God wiped out humanity because none bar Noah and his family were left sane or pure.
