We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, and make sure women’s voices are heard and heeded.
-- Sheryl Sandberg (Lean In, 2013)
-
Men are the only animal who will beat you for calling them animals.
-- Fran Lebowitz (Interview in Vanity Fair, 1997)
-
A woman is like a tea bag. You never know how strong she is until she gets into hot water.
-- Eleanor Roosevelt (Attributed statement, 1942)
-
Give a man power and he’ll call it destiny. Give a woman power and she’ll call it justice.
-- Maya Angelou (Interview in Essence Magazine, 1996)
-
The more I see of men, the more I like dogs.
-- Clara Bow (Interview with Photoplay Magazine, 1929)
-
“[…] apparently, you can tell a great deal about a woman from a piece of cloth on her head. A woman in a miniskirt, she made a choice. A woman in a bikini, self-expression. A woman who tattoos her body or surgically alters it beyond recognition, bodily autonomy. But put a scarf over a woman’s hair and suddenly something extraordinary happens. She loses her free will. Someone must have made her do it.
And there you have one of the great contradictions of a certain kind of modern feminism. A woman is sovereign sover her body until she uses that sovereignty in ways we find insufficiently liberated. Then apparently she needs rescuing.”
-
Beauty is terror. Whatever we call beautiful, we quiver before it.
-- Donna Tartt (The Secret History, 1992)
-
The world which men have made is built for war; the world women would build is for peace.
-- Charlotte Perkins Gilman (Women and Economics, 1898)

CW: CW: fascism, authoritarianism, xenophobia, sexism, anti-queer violence, climate crisis, AI and labour displacement
I increasingly distrust the language of “multiple crises.”
AI-driven labour displacement.
Climate catastrophe.
Right-wing populism.
Fascism.
Racism.
Sexism.
The organised backlash against queer existence.We are encouraged to catalogue these as separate problems, each requiring its own specialist vocabulary, institution, funding stream and respectable panel discussion.
But they are not unrelated phenomena.
They emerge from overlapping structures of domination.
The same political economy that renders a worker disposable can render a forest disposable. The same authoritarian imagination that reduces migrants to a demographic threat reduces queer people to a threat against an imagined social order. The same hierarchical logic that demands obedience from bodies demands obedience from nature, labour and dissent.
And when the system produces insecurity, it offers a remarkably convenient explanation:
Not the structure.
The Other.The migrant.
The queer person.
The feminist.
The unemployed.
The dissenter.Someone must be made responsible for conditions they did not create.
This is not an accident. It is politically useful.
So I am less interested in asking which crisis we should address first than in asking what keeps producing them.
Because if we merely treat the symptoms, the machinery remains intact.
And machinery does not become humane because we learn to describe its victims more politely.
Find the structure.
Name the hierarchy.
Follow the power.Then start taking the machine apart.

I'm sick of people excusing bigotry from older generations by blaming their cultural surroundings. I was raised right wing and I know its not for me to say but I believe I've deconstructed that upbringing.
I'm also vegan and anarchist and consider myself feminist antiracist anticolonial antiableist and antiageist. Again whether I live up to those ideals as much as I could is not for me to say as an ablebodied white person living in the imperial core but my point is that looking at the social aspect I understand what it means to be against hegemony, to invoke defensive judgment and to see the world and most of the people in it in a very depressing and unflattering lens.
It's not *easy* to oppose hegemony. But it's also not *complicated*. Just the same as there were always anti slavery activists, and suffragettes and anticolonialists.
