What do the pro-rape crowd and the pro-torture crowd have in common?
Besides the syllable "pro"? And besides both promoting suffering? The suffering of others.
Both the pro-rape crowd and the pro-torture crowd are medievalist.
Medievalists reject modern concepts like the rule of law, human rights, working for the common good, honesty, decency, and so so.
Al Qaeda is medievalist. So are the fundamentalists of Iran. Rightwing crackpot "Christians" are medievalist. They emphasize the "eye for an eye" Old Testament while conveniently ignoring the actual teachings of Jesus. They're part of the Golden Rule: NOT crowd.
So, we're not surprised about selfish, greedy, sexist, murdering, raping, gang-raping power and control freaks like KBR, Halliburton, Blackwater, etc. going into hysterics and then acting out their internal hysteria in the real world.
It's the medievalism, stupid!!
