“Ancient moon priestesses were called virgins. ‘Virgin’ meant not married, not belong to a man-a woman who was ‘one-in-herself.’ The very word derives from a Latin root meaning strength, force, skill; and was later applied to men: virle. Ishtar, Diana, Astarte, Isis were all all called virgin, which did not refer to sexual chasity, but sexual independence. And all great culture heroes of the past,mythic or historic, were said to be born of virgin mothers: Marduk, Gilgamesh, Buddha, Osiris, Dionysus, Genghis Khan, Jesus-they were all affirmed as sons of the Great Mother, of the Original One, their worldly power deriving from her. When the Hebrews used the word, and in the original Aramatic, it meant ‘maiden’ or ‘young woman’, with no connotations to sexual chasity. But later Christian translators could not conceive of the ‘Virgin Mary’ as a woman of independent sexuality, needless to say; they distorted the meaning into sexually pure, chaste, never touched. When Joan of Arc, with her witch coven associations, was called La Pucelle-‘the Maiden,’ ‘the Virgin’ - the word retained some of its original pagan sense of a strong and independent woman. The Moon Goddess was worshipped in orgiastic rites, being the divinity of matriarchal women free to take as many lovers as they choose. Women could ‘surrender’ themselves to the Goddess by making love to a stranger in her timple.” - Monica Sjoo and Barbara Mor in the book “The Great Cosmic Mother -Rediscovering the Religion of the Earth”

If you’re a right-wing libertarian and like people like Rand Paul, then reblog this and stop the take-over before it’s finished.Communists and anarchists were the original libertarians. Our opposition to involuntary subordination is deeper, more full, than the right-libertarian opposition to the State and the State only (and only in certain circumstances, if an idiot like CK gets to be called a libertarian.)
By God. Communism will win. See you in hell.
“Libertarians attacking family structure in general.” I presume this means Libertarians who dare to be pro-choice or pro-gay rights. Makes me think this is less about the “co-opting of libertarianism by the left” and more about conservative collectivists masquerading as libertarians who feel threatened their clique dare include anyone who isn’t socially conservative (which, by the way, is fairly anti-libertarian in that it implies the government has a right to tell women what they can do with their bodies and that they can decide who does and doesn’t get to marry).
