If women in the lower classes are not seen as equals to their peers in the same class, how can we possibly believe that class solidarity is achievable? I'm sincerely asking you how you are able to envision any level of solidarity while simultaneously supporting women being treated as lesser than men.
Choosing the larger battle of class issues isn't saying you support the Patriarchy, it's correctly identifying one of the major support structure for the patriarchy that must be dismantled for gender equality to even be a realistic possibility.
And I disagree that we must ignore gender equality in order to have class solidarity.
My bad, I mistook you for a serious adult. If I'd read the rest of the thread before replying I'd have realized you're an IdPol wokescold with a serious case of "liking pancakes means hating waffles" kind of thinking.
Have a nice life.
I should start to get prizes for how many men get offended by my "scolding" lol
I’m smoking a fat fucking joint in your honor tonight 💚

I don't know how many different ways I can say that I am agreeing with you, fundamentally, that is something worth solving. You continue to frame it as if I'm against if I'm not fully agreeing that these things need to be of absolutely equal priority.
Again, you're not supporting your argument by asking me this. And I've already given an example. It can be done entirely without balancing all the other conflicting cultural humors, and has been in the past.
How will we achieve it? I don't suggest we start reinventing the wheel. Same ol' same ol'.
All of the other cultural stratification issues we deal with are extensibly maintained by the power that is held by the rulers. If we are going to talk about gender, then we should also talk about race, and also ableism, and political alignment and all the other juxtapositions of cultural conflict that make up the many-headed hydra of inequality.
You want the egalitarian life, and so do i. But I think you can't beat a hydra by cutting off one of it's heads. You cut out its heart and you burn it.
