We are individuals. The only person that really cares about you is you. To everyone else, you are just a utility. Sure, your mom loves you, your dad loves you, your wife and kids love you. But, that love is conditional as it should be. If you murdered your mom and burned down their house, your dad would stop loving you. If you stopped being productive and sat on the couch, got fat, and stopped showering, your wife would probably leave you and take the kids. Respectively, you should do the reprecipitate if your wife does the same.
Unconditional love is for babies and harmless pets. Even then, as the babies grow up and the puppy learns to go outside instead of the carpet, they should be expected to do that. We need to be accountable for our actions. Without accountability, we do not have agency.
Imagine a beach with a "No Swimming" sign. The air is warm, the beach looks inviting. So, you scowl at the sign, look both directions and see nobody around. You decide that it won't hurt anyone if you just go in a ways. Pretty soon, you are bobbing up and down in the waves, and having a wonderful time. As you are playing, you notice the beach is looking farther and farther away. You start to swim back, but notice the current is dragging you out to sea. An underwater reef in that area deflects the current out in that area. What you thought was someone destroying a person's agency by making up rules, was in fact saving a person's agency by keeping them on shore where they can get away. Now that you are floating out to sea, you are out of options, unless you are fortunate enough.
Why am I telling this story? Because many people today think the "old patriarchy" of yesteryear that told women to not sleep around, that men need to be married by 30 to be productive citizens, that you need to get a haircut and get a real job or else.... that this patriarchy was repressive to men and women. In fact, it was set up as a way for men and women to cohabitate in a way that brings peace and harmony to a family life. Those rules were penned by God through prophets of old as a system to find peace and happiness in this life. By disregarding those rules, we are subjecting ourselves to the risk of being dragged out to sea.
Modern society has done massive damage to these rules. It has made love for our fellowmen to wax cold. In the 1960's, women in masse threw off the "shackles of the patriarchy" and decided to venture out into the waters. Men unaware of the dangers, followed along in the spirit of "free love".
There is no such thing as a free lunch. Welfare recipients receive all these government handouts, but in return, they lose ambition to improve themselves. They lose respect for themselves and the respect from society at large. They lose the skills they once had when they were employed, they lose the sense of family, honor, and purpose to life.
Similarly, the "free love" movement has lasting consequences. Abortion and the pill has removed some of the physical responsibility, but that responsibility is still there, it shifted to taxpayers in society, it shifted to the breakdown of the family. It shifted to the unborn babies who are now killed by the millions. It is now shifted into the elimination of love between the sexes. Men will not love women who do not respect them. Feminism has caused women to lose respect for men, and now we are here.
