Equating love to passion seems like Anton and his semantic definition of religion with toy trains. Sure it fits the criteria, but there is an "essence of" caveat in there, at least to most of society, that warps where everything lands.
While I would consider a rapists passion for raping a "love of raping", and possibly "love of violent dominance" or "love of control", most would scoff at the very idea of love qualifying as anything "evil".
There is a tendency of most to lump "godly" things with love along preconditioned lines.
I like to think love can be perfectly epitomized by the conclusion of THIS delightfully amoral movie.
Love only beats the demon after they kill Heroin Downey Jr, and ESCAPE to a quiet life... unless they get bored and reinvigorate their love of killing people once again.
Do you see an inherent duality with love and all mentioned contextually equivocal terms?
Or is it as amoral as a natural born killer?
Addendum:
*** My reasoning is: there is a concept of "greater good" (read as greater benefit) promoted within all civilized societies, which often times gets corrupted by morality, and leads to an artificial sense of nobility in some form of service to that greater good, however they define it.
You see it with enlisted personnel. They are seriously doing it for their lord and country to protect that white christian rhetoric, or saying stupid redneck shit like, "Yeehaw, we are going to send Hillary to GITMO".
That is the retardery that guarded Camp Pendleton on election night. Serving his ideals and stupid republican convictions. And it's not a fiscal conservatism thing either, fuck welfare, go states rights, but more that they are all such ignorant retards in lifted trucks with big flags hanging off the back.
Good ol' boys can throw down though...
Anyway who cares what most people would scoff at? Most people are idiots.
I can't do it. Their idiots sculpting a world I interact with. At one point I just laughed, somehow, something changed all that. And now my antinomianism can go fuck itself when Idiocracy is happening 500 years sooner than it should have.
As much as I would like to be above it all, we elected Dwayne Alisando Mt. Dew Herbert Camancho, and that is more sad than funny. It shows a twitter fucked society voting for "Worst Dressed Sentient Being", to use a different reference.
Sadly, not one of those folk glad Killery lost could answer my goddamn question why 90% of economists were wrong to renounce his fiscal plan... But, "Yeehaw Hilary's going to GITMO!"
So to your point, I do have a passion, and it has become anything that subverts evangelical christianity, Fox News (Trump's policy maker), and all those sickening "soldier with rifle kneeling by a cross silhouettes", of course by the jesus fish, and assorted anti-abortion stickers.
I often want to get their attention and say:
"Hey, you know you are not serving and fighting for God, right? Lord tell ya to pack an M-4?"
It is like the push of the far right is for some type of Christian Sharia Law. I guess the second amendment blinds them to the first.
And I have a fucking love or passion for helping dismantle that and doing everything to make "them" uncomfortable in the process. Fuck the 50's.
Seems silly considering I really do care. I am sorry it's not sinister window dressing white nationalism bullshit, but the thing in society I don't like is backwater dated values taken outside the backwater dated household. Fly that rebel flag, drink that moonshine, and pop those oxycontin pills for all I give a fuck. (Those are all statistic backed valid assertions). It's the God Is Not Dead shit I can't abide. That shit gets spurred on by the many giant auditorium video-link sermons and the growing number of obscene mega-churches, depicting their sick little militancy in selected artwork. And subsequently breeding close-minded christian jihadists to covert as many people as possible.
This was the bulk of what elected Macho Camancho.
They can even protest Planned Parenthood all you want, but do you need to slash the OBGYN's tires?
There is a militancy within one side of this bicameral fuckfest that I cant help but fighting for my own personal satisfaction.
You can say I bought into it, I fucking love it.
I dont like private media, vice presidents who put God above service to the country (there is a difference) and all the other shit sculpting the agenda of my country's president, and all those who like that push back to the 50's.
And when did satanism become Generation X and you can only like the president if its ironic or some other apathetic or cynical reason? Despite it really is some sort of poetry, somewhere.
I get it, yes the liberal melted down, and I just shook my head in amazement. I didn't vote, because I live in California, but it still confounded me.
I personally do not buy this "you cant care about politics with your satanism" bullshit, but that is just me.
