Neither left nor right are acceptable. The right is enthusiastic about its brutality and therefore more reprehensible. But the left is weak including morally weak. They have no convictions—they, like the right, simply want power. They think this is "pragmatism" but this is really standing for nothing at all.

Because of this, because men are too stupid to see that women are people and that everyone on the planet shares a common fate, those of us who are sane and caring and sensible and, yes, REALISTIC, need to reject the status quo everywhere. Need to refuse to support it. Need to kill the status quo even faster than it's destroying itself.

We need to make the men who rule the world as impotent politically as they are impotent sexually. Because all their cruelty is a symptom of desperate weakness, of a personally inadequacy they want to deny. From Trump's daddy issues, to whatever motivates Musk to have his slaves build big (crashing) rockets, we are seeing very weak and deeply flawed human beings.

This is one reason 4B is so excellent. It DOESN'T work within the corrupt and morally bankrupt system. It doesn't lobby or try to persuade horrible morons to be less stupid and less vile.

It simply says, go away—we don't care about you, we aren't interested in you. We are taking care of ourselves and each other.

This is an approach that's suitable not only for women oppressed by patriarchy, by for sane and caring people of every stripe everywhere. Thank you 4B for your indispensable work!
