("The woke say it is transphobic to stay attached to your body. The very idea of having a link to the body is biological essentialism.") - unfortunately this new ideological perspective of "woke disembodiment" - inevitably necessitates of course an associated - "disconnection" - from one's own brain. This of course explains the frequently "brain-less" hostile irrationality that characterizes so much of the attack rhetoric aimed at anyone who simply defends safe spaces for women and girls and/or refuses to partake in the delusion that a biological male can magically transform into a "woman" because he wishes it were so.

"(The making of the global feminine class is a structural adjustment. It's like economic structural adjustment against the newly decolonised countries of Africa, but it’s a social structural adjustment against the newly decolonised women of the world. By breaking the meaning of the word woman, they are breaking the Feminist Fence we built to protect us from the ravages of men.") - I love this analysis. I think it is very insightful indeed.

yep. people seem to give up control so easily.... like taking candy from a baby.... it almost seems our destiny...except I do not believe in destiny. we need to figure this out now. either we completely rid ourselves of patriarchy (and stop taking scraps) by whatever means necessary or it will be the same old thing, over and over again.

The woke are anti capitalist. They are Marxists. It is sexually perverted men who are doing this, joined by ideologically brainwashed people of both sexes. I don't think using a broad brush to paint this as an assault by all men and only men is particularly helpful.

I'm not saying it's only men - there are plenty of women promoting the ideology. But I do think it benefits men mostly. I'll take a look at how it's written to make that clear. Good point.

actually the "woke" could not be more capitalist. they march in lock step to god and country. it is 99% men and actually all men who do not monitor other men. I did not see men protecting women on Kellie-Jay's recent round of speaking for women events where women were physically injury.

the inaction of the men who claim to be our allies speaks volumes. This is a men's demands movement and the men who have taken the frock are the advance party for the men everyone seems so keen to look kindly upon.

just to add re the men's rights movement being tied to god and country, check out Kellie-Jay's event in Cardiff and listen to the song the men's procession is chanting in the background.
