@faab64 the revisionism is insane
so many people glorify a past that never was. They just imagine that back then everything was swell and now woman "have to" work.
You know who might disagree? the woman of that time. the brave woman who fought tooth and nail for womans rights. It wasn't going swell.
In the last few centuries in europe everyone who was able (this includes children regardless of gender) had to perform hard labour every day for survival
@saxnot
The biggest revisionism in the western world is the complete erasure of socialist movement from 19th century that brought the issues of equality between genders, child labor, voting rights and so many other rights we all enjoy and take for granted.
You can barely find a single American who have heard of Rosa Luxemburg. You won't find any person admitting that women received right to vote in Soviet union in 1917 compared to 1944 in France. And all Nordic countries with strong socialist, social democratic movement had this passed years before others.
The "socialist feminism" is defined as an American movement from the 1970s which makes me realize how strongly and well the propaganda affected, even the "progressives" in the west.
