That's why they don't stand up for us.
And so I think I just feel very, not with a sense of misandry, with a sense of huge empathy.
I would like to help men and women organize together against patriarchy because it's fucking all of us.
Like the suicide rates are largely men, homelessness, largely men, addiction, largely men, the people who will die at war, largely men.
I really, really believe that we need to have like a really big sit down men and women together and go, the patriarchy is actually designed to fuck you and we're a distraction.
We are the distraction to make you think you're fucking us over.
But actually, you're the ones who are going to get conscripted, not us.
You're the ones who are going to get sent down the mines.
You're the ones who are going to end up doing the most dangerous and unnecessary jobs in society for wealthy, powerful men at the top.
Because if we could come together and organize, then perhaps we could live in a peaceful world and they could just get off our fucking necks so that we could live in an organized society.
There is no society in which women are oppressed that has a strong GDP, a high mental health rate, a functioning society, all the places that allow women to not just have freedom, but take some of the burden off of men as well.
lead to a happier world and we know that so it's so sad to watch this backslide globally yeah do you think it's possible that that um the way ai may dismantle so many things in society that it may get so bad that it leads to this actually being able to happen i don't know i don't really know because i think i don't know if it's just men or human beings but i think that
people or men like to believe that there's someone lower than them in order to not recognize where they stand in society.
They are more bred towards hierarchy than women are.
Women are by nature, obviously it's possible for someone to adopt hierarchy and there are many misogynist women in the world, but largely women are egalitarian by nature and men are bred to be more hierarchical.
I think this has to be a conscious decision of understanding that it benefits you when women are empowered, when they're fulfilled, when they're stimulated.
You have a stimulating person to come home to who's actually got something to say for herself because she went out into the world and did something for herself.
She can take some of the burden and some of the slack off of you so you can also spend time with your kids so that they don't fucking hate you when they get older.
You can have time with your friends as well.
