This is the shit that conservatives think we care about
“Patriarchy” is a funny way to say “Capitalism” so the concept can survive and that is just needs more women to be in positions of power to exploit it.
Sorry but that’s a bad and extremely reductive take. There is absolutely a unique factor of oppression towards non-cis-men that
a) evolved historically
b) reproduces itself in our current economic system, but
c) isn’t guaranteed to dissolve and could be perpetuated in a post-capitalist economic system and
d) could be eased even under capitalism and materially benefit those affected
Ignoring this factor of oppression results in a reductive analysis of the kind of “let’s overthrow capitalism and everything will be great”
Yes - the liberation of women, trans people of all genders, non-binary people etc. necessitates an end of capitalist structures - but that alone won’t solve the problem. So saying “patriarchy = capitalism” is reductive.
And of course men suffer from patriarchal structures too - but it’s qualitatively not the same as the explotation of their labour or the way non-cis men experience gender oppression.
Fuck Dave
Does anybody remember BASED_BALL and after their ban the follow-up accounts when nobody knew whether it was the real one or not?
That was funny
NOOOOOOOOOOOO BUT HECKING E A DOES LOOTBOXESERINO, WHY ARE THEY SUCH A GREEDY COMPANY?
I noticed her more feminine presentation in the recent videos but I thought that was just because she was now out as bisexual and more comfortable presenting more feminine
How do I recalibrate my gaydar?
I’d honestly get your leftist friends to read Luxemburg’s “Reform/Revolution” and Bernstein’s “Evolutionary Socialism” if they get through that.
Honestly Luxemburg is the reason I’m a liberal and if they read her and aren’t convinced she’s totally wrong then they earned radicalism.
Yeah, let the leftists read theory, that’ll show them :galaxy-brain:
This thread is so weird lmao. I didn’t know what you were talking about and posted multiple posts today, I think it’s neat to remind people about specific communities, because it does seem like everything gets posted to !main@hexbear.net which clogs main and drains other comms.
