    Wanna guess if it was men or women who profit the most from the relentless consumption machine? Wanna guess if it was men or women who controlled women’s livelihoods based on their conformance to their standards of femininity, until, like, one generation ago? Lol

        Who’s in the 0.1%?

        Sex & gender discrimination is a way, one of the most important ways, in which we are divided in order to make class oppression possible.

        So I agree, blame the 0.1%, but the only way you can actually do anything about that is by healing the gender divide, and you’re not going to do that by pretending everything is fine and equal when it’s not.

        The 0.1% are the reason why women are oppressed, sure, but that doesn’t mean it’s not happening.

          I might be mistaken, but I’m pretty sure about half of this 0.1% are women. The ultra rich aren’t single and they have kids.

          I agree with you that gender discrimination is one of the many ways to divide the people, but I don’t see how healing the gender divide will end the growing wealth inequality.

            You agree that it’s a way to divide people, but you don’t think more united people will help against wealth inequality?

                This is such a non-sequitur that I’m really not sure what it means. Care to enlighten? Is the “joke” that I am a woman and therefore must change my clothes often? Not your best work
