Holistic Bedfellows

There is a website called Global Oneness, and the following snippet will give you a notion of its . . . spiritual tenor:
"The Global Oneness Commitment is an eight-year project with the goal of uniting people around the globe to mutual actions in order to not only save what we have, but to transform the planet thru an increase in spiritual awareness - a new consciousness creating a joyful home for all its inhabitants and sincere respect for all forms of life."

You get the idea, right? This is the peace, love and holistic awareness crowd we're looking at here. It's a crowd which I myself somewhat belong to, in a back-handed, rough-hewn, country cousin sort of way.

All right, picture my surprise when I discovered the following:

www.experiencefestival.com/wp/videos/what-is-this-thing-called-patriarchy/1zvkuUyzSMk

Yes, you saw that right! There is nothing amiss in your eyeballs: it's a Counter-Feminist YouTube video featured on the Global Oneness website. Look in the selection bar just below it, and you will see about 5 or 6 more CF vids, plus a couple by Rocking Mr E., and some additional items which are quite unapologetically not-feminist.

What gives here, anyway? Are we cultured barbarians now given leave to stroll amidst the colonnades, the splashing fountains, the Apollonian groves. . .? Do they seek an infusion of our raw-vital barbarian energy into their harmonious but over-mellow world?

Seriously though, this supports what I have long known, that the non-feminist revolution is seeping everywhere, into more and more quarters where you'd be quite surprised to see it seeping.

We non-feminist men and women are everywhere, and we are legion.

Carry on, fellow workers in the vineyard!

You might be surprised to know there is a growing legion of counter-feminists and other non feminists who have facebook accounts. The counter-feminist/non feminist legion is growing. I am doing everything I can to help it grow.

The resistance to feminism is growing in more directions than one person can keep track of.

I am aware of this, even as I struggle to keep track of it.

The energy is bursting at the seams, and spawning scenes, sub-scenes and communities in unimagined places.
