Why are we sacrificing what women want on the altar of big business?

The oligarchy's beef with American women is they, on average want to have more children than they have and want to spend more time with their children than they do. https://tinyurl.com/y38kk9uf

It is necessary to indoctrinate them on what it means to be a “liberated woman” – pushing paper in an office, climbing the corporate ladder and spitting out widgets in a factory, is more fulfilling than raising children.

We must also make it economically necessary for women to work outside the home and of course, make abortion a sacrament.

I have never been able to figure how it is that all of these white old men think they have the right to dictate how a woman should live and what to do with her body. 😫😡

@ReneeT Those white old men are telling us ALL what we can and cannot do... They are not out friends in the slightest, they don't support any of the common people, and they only have self-interest at heart.

It's not an issue of gender, it's an issue of class.

@Quizzical When you look at it I think there are separate issues. Definitely one of class and certainly one of gender.

@ReneeT of course the majority of "white old men" are not in a position of power, just for the record
Quizzical · 46-50, M
@yeronlyman Exactly... They are just as shit upon as the rest of us.

It's a select few that are doing the dictating, and for that matter they are not all old, white, or even men doing so.

@Quizzical the truth in reality... 👍

@yeronlyman We keep falling for their same old tricks though... Divide and conquer. Set us against each other, keep us busy fighting amongst ourselves for ideologies they've fed us, and just sit back, watch the entertainment and do everything they can to maintain power.

@Quizzical polarisation... left/right, liberal/conservative, men/women, young/old etc

examples of it are evident here daily

cheers man

@Quizzical I hope you didn't think I was meaning all old white men. Just the ones who somehow keep getting elected and get put into the power positions.

@ReneeT It's usually old families. They've been playing us for fools for centuries one way or another...
yeronlyman · 51-55, M
@ReneeT i think its the power, not necessarily the other main descriptors

cheers

@yeronlyman You are so right. Power seems to breed more of the same. Too many people seem to be resigned to that fact. And they never seem to listen to what is being said.
