I guess mainly because it addresses inequalities for all groups, which mitigates the ability to scapegoat and dehumanize any given group of people. The ability to isolate and identify an “other” is a necessary tendency of fascism I think.
At the very least, most people agree that class based oppression exists to an extent. Edit: I’d like to add that intersectionality is a good check against fascism and authoritarianism.
The draft is hardly on the public conscience rn, but I’m sure if it came up their would be vocal opposition to it. I don’t think it’s a stretch that’d we see similar protests and riots to the ones we saw this and last month.
Depends on the brand of feminism I’d wager. Intersectional feminists are on board with abolishing the draft and addressing disparities in how men and women of all races are treated. First and second wave feminists however, not so much.
I’m a PROUD cum dumpster lmao! That’s not an insult at all 😂😂😂 And Gay dudes in California pay very well ;) I’m sorry you’re an ugly piece of shit with a bad personality who can’t get laid<3
Bulllll shiet. Don’t hate just because you’re too ugly to be a sex worker. I’m a dude and I still have to deal with all the same bullshit as women in our profession.
This is so stupid. As a male sex worker, we’d love to pay our taxes, have our profession decriminalized, and have our industry regulated so we aren’t in as much danger. Half our legislators are balls deep in sex workers yet they still criminalize what we do. It’s literally no different from being a massage therapist or any other service.
Yes I’d like something more akin to the Aztecs. No jk lol the institutions I’m talking about radically restructuring are things like criminal justice, the for-profit health care system, the military industrial complex, systemic white supremacy, campaign finance, disparities in public education, infrastructure, socioeconomic inequality, etc.
White women were, and remain, privileged too, to a lesser degree than men. It seems you’re putting too much of your ego into the equation to have an unbiased analysis of history.
White feminism is toxic af, no doubt The ruling class don’t care about sex, just money. And the people in positions of power with the most money, who hold the most political sway, are men, so maybe we should focus on reforming campaign finance and wealth inequality to diminish their influence. Get more women in the work force so neither sex needs to depend on, or spend, the fruits of the others labor I’m gay so that might skew my view on this, but it’s not instinct that drives men to feel protec…
Ok but we’re still all paying the price of those actions, and if we want to fix our problems, we need to undue the systems and institutions they put in place. If we don’t correct the problem, what’s the point of complaining?
That’s a good thing, I want us all to learn to not be afraid to express our feelings and what not. A lot of anger comes from feeling sad and isolated, and we should view our emotions as strengths, not weaknesses. We need to lift each other up, and everyone else along with us.
I’m not saying that change isn’t hard, just look at how much work BLM is putting into it. I’m just saying we’re not gonna solve these problem by blaming groups with little to no institutional power of their own. As men, we should take responsibility for our mistakes, and the mistakes of the men who came before us.
Ok but by and large men put those people in power. Men control the majority of wealth and power on an institutional level, and have been culturally dominant until very recently. I just don’t get why you’re blaming women when men both created the system to be this way and have the institutional power to change it. Further, the reaction from women is a product of how we’ve used our power to dominate and mistreat them for centuries. All the issues you laid out are relevant, but you’re undermining y…
Some solid points, but at the same time, men control the courts, the legislature, the presidency, most industries, etc. It’s hard to claim institutional discrimination when we control virtually all the institutions.
