I would like an extension of the self-care industry that also works on the inside rather than just finding a way to survive this world, which is what it feels like it is now.
But we also need to make sure that those conversations leave the upper middle class.
We have a lot of privileged women having those conversations, but we don't have working mothers of three having those conversations.
And that's something that I feel very passionately about.
It's like, how do we democratize this information and also rebuild a system in which women are not expected to be the dog's body of society?
Like my, my biggest obsession is preventative is like before we even need the refuge centers and the trauma centers, how do we rebuild a world in which, um,
not to be indelicate, but men don't like fuck up the world for us as badly as they do.
And I know that men also fuck up the world for each other in a way that I feel incredibly empathetic towards them for.
I know that they are in some ways as afraid of other men as we are.
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.
