What a week in #patriarchy :

- Chomsky cozying up with Epstein (who became, according to the untouchable Guru of the Left, himself the victim of the "hysteria around sexual assault")
- Bastani and Walker (Novara Media) going on praising Epstein's exceptional manipulating skills to get Chomsky be his bestie
- Neil Gaiman sending his fans to a shady Substack of an obsessive "fan" tracking down the women he allegedly abused (& selling you a new book).

- Italy has removed the word "consent" from its law on sexual assault
- Maja T., a German non-binary anti-fascist, has been convicted of involvement in violence ahead of the annual “Day of Honour” Nazi commemoration in Budapest and jailed for 8 years
- An Italian woman died in hospital after being left in front of the building's doors by her brother, who, absolutely *involuntarily*, beat her face and then threw a knife, stabbing her.

I stop here, not because the ones above are the only or the most important episodes, they're just the ones I happen to have tracked within the last 7 to 10 days.
But I'm sure you're smart and you don't need more to see the pattern, don't you?
There is one thing all these men have in common: they're all - all of them - healthy sons of the patriarchy. They are no exception. Yes even the "Leftist". Because #Patriachy doesn't need capitalism or neoliberalism.

Patriarchy only needs an unequal distribution of wealth that supports an hierarchy with men on top. It feeds the worst instincts of men and therefore they're all too happy to comply.

It's a grift, an endless grift that keeps being reinforced even by those who call themselves "allies" (solidarity not included).

#Patriarchy is alive and well, I would say thriving.

More pathetic men. Yes, probably your science "hero" is one of them.

@alx @rebeccawatson I listened to every word. This is not my world. I knew nothing of these specifics, but not surprised at anything. And I loved Rebecca’s last line because we all know these men aren’t worth spitting on.

@alx

In recent years, amid all the corruption, grift, abuse, immorality, evil, political darkness and financial swill ... its always men at the centre and top of it all. One or two female groupies occasionally but 99% male scum.
Isn't it time there was a reset?
Men have had millenia to get it right and are just not up to the job.

@Godfrey642 I agree on the reset, but I don’t see it as a matter of switching genders. I see it in terms of unchecked power and resources control, which should be switched to distributed resources and systems to avoid people gaining power
