Damn the family and its *shuffles cards * killing feminism

So? Women head the household and men head the family. If individual families want to adjust those roles, I'm all for it, but the consequences to society of demolishing that structure has been dire. Look at what's happening to our own society. Were there things wrong with society in the 50s? Very much so. Are we better off social socially than we were in the 50s? I'd argue vehemently no.

The dictators you mentioned didn't advocate for families to be patriarchal; they did it because it's literally the best way to assure the most stable society with the highest potential for healthy population growth. What made the Nazi's scary wasn't that they were bumbling idiots. They were scary because they were so calculated and logical that it became pathological and destructive.
