  • Sex researchers are pretty universally the most sex positive people around. So you should probably elaborate on what you mean by “allegedly scientific disciplines for control”

      • Occasionally they are. But sure, so it could be phrased as power projection via the hijacking of mass education systems. That doesn’t exactly track super well with the examples given in the text, but it would be more applicable.

While one can be used by the other, like Florida’s use of prageru, it might be important to discussion to elaborate your points relevance to the modern context.
