Cora Currier — Every Right to Be Angry: Two New Books on Women’s Rage Are Timed Perfectly for the Brett Kavanaugh Debacle


This is not going away anytime soon.

One aspect of the new "civil war" between traditionalism and liberalism is emancipation of the repressed with women in front.

"The should know their place" is so 20th century. Women are seeing themselves as the new "Negroes."

On the blogs and in social media, many men are freaking out that their male privilege is under attack by "rabid feminists aka "feminazis." It's mostly right wing men, supported by some right wing women, but hardly exclusively. There are lots of men that consider themselves "liberals" are turning out to be selectively liberal.

The comments above refer to women as “oppressed,” and also refer to “male privilege.”

This is identity politics at its very worst.

Neoliberals use identity politics to keep the lower classes divided and powerless. As long as women seek to castrate every male they see, the lower classes will not unite against their owners.

Regarding feminists, 1% of them seek to bring women up, while 99% seek to bring men down and destroy them.

Other than that, my opinions about feminists are not fit to write in this blog.

Wrong. 99% of feminists seek to destroy men, but not all women are feminists.

And "seeking" does not always mean succeeding.

LOL

"The anti-patriarchy movement is going to undo ten thousand years of recorded history. You watch. The time has come. Women are gonna take charge of society. And they couldn't juxtapose a better villain than Trump. He is the patriarch. This is a definitional moment in the culture. It'll never be the same going forward." ~Steve Bannon
