Candace Owens and the host discussed the title, noting that the author framed pornography as a spiritual weapon that reflects a choice between a God‑centered love and a self‑centered lust to dominate. They highlighted the book’s historical analysis of pornography’s role in cultural and political control, linking it to psychoanalytic thought. The conversation presented the work as a compelling, if controversial, perspective on sexual liberation and power.
Episode: Candace Owens x E. Michael Jones
The speaker held the second edition of this book and discussed how it theorized pornography as a spiritual weapon. The book's title translates to 'dominating lust' or 'lust to dominate,' outlining two options for history: the City of God (love of God) or the City of Man (love of self).
I am holding in my hand a book by E. Michael Jones. It's entitled Libido Dominandi.
It's the dominating lust. Or it's the lust to dominate.
The city of God is based on love of God to the extinction of self. And the City of Man is based on love of self to the extinction of God.
So the first edition came out 25 years ago and was greeted with skepticism. And then I was saying it's a form of control.
