In Saturday's Sun newspaper, Jeremy Clarkson, a motoring journalist who has been elevated to hero status and low-cultural icon beause he has mouthed a few mild utterances in favour of civic nationalism and, it must be said, due to his wit, humour and televisual acumen, used the fullness of his column inches to make a serious point about the legislation being brought in by the British government to curb freedom of speech and expression. This act has been called the "Snooper's Charter", although its real name is the Investigatory Powers Act 2016.
The contemporary Left's dogma I have come to refer to as "the Puritanism of Perversity". There are historical, philosophical and even theological reasons for this term, which I will go into in another article, but the main principle rests on a certain fanatical pursuit of everything outside of societal norms, while simultaneously attacking even the very idea of normality with quasi-religious zealotry. This is very much reflected in the anti-art the Left serves up in the galleries, which is a kind of ritualisation of abnormality.
Leftist anti-art is very much political, for one thing the Left does is to politicise all aspects of life. Recently, the Podesta Brothers, Tony and John, the former being the head of a powerful Leftist lobby group, the latter Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, were implicted in anti-artist Marina Abramovic's "Spirit Cooking", which would appear to be some kind of Satanic ritual dressed up as art. As we see from these images, she very much sees herself as full-time Satanist and part-time poet Aleister Crowley's successor.
