Is glamour bombing subversive?

Oh. Yes. Glamour bombing is essentially subversive. I also like to use the phrase "beneficent mischief" which subverts the common usage of the word mischief. Keep in mind that there is a vital difference between subversion and transgression. We live in a culture of unrelenting shock, artificiality, and aggression. I can't think of anything more subversive than to be a genuine, inspirational and creative force. I would go so far as to argue that to be playful and happy, in harmony and balance with nature and self, is the ultimate subversion.

Much of the population engages in the destruction of nature and does not recognize its inherent intelligence. People also spend much of their time distracting themselves from their core self and do not look within. That core self and the awareness of a planetary intelligence are intrinsically tied to faerie and to the source of our spirit and creativity. To realign ourselves with its purpose is to subvert the more popular cynical and materialistic views.
