    EXACTLY. We shouldnt be trying to elevate women to the top of hierarchies, we should be abolishing those hierarchies. A woman CEO doesn't cancel out the oppression or the issues faced by women at the bottom of the ladder. Its just capitalism masking itself as progressive.

    How do you propose to eliminate hierarchies in universities, the police or the military? You can't. Even the Worker Co-op so loved by Socialists, Mondragon, has hierarchies, lots of them. If you discriminate, you will make a hierarchy. It is impossible not to discriminate at some point. Try it.

    I think it’s because modern feminism in North America is this weird 4th/5th wave movement perpetuated by middle class, 20-35 year old white women. They see themselves as eternal victims of patriarchy, despite working white collar jobs in tech or the culture industry, and they very rarely interact with anyone outside their class. When they travel, they go to western Europe or East Asia, they have really no exposure to anyone outside their little bubble. And their parents perpetuate this inner monologue as well.

No where near as diabolical as what poor Mr Floyd went thru though so don't take me wrong! but all the young black lads on the BBC say they suffer racism via stop and search for no reason, not getting jobs via stereotypical profiling etc members of public avoiding them or being suspicious etc. I was stopped by police about 15 times and searched for nothing when I lived in illford! Iv'e been unsuccessful getting jobs b4! I thought I wasn't good enough but now I know I can just assume racist motives and have the BBC accept this (or else they racist!'). I also been in Polish corner shops and had the shop keeper accuse me of stealing when I haven't! I thought he was just a twat! now I know he was racist!

    I recently wrote my final paper for an English class last semester using a buncha the class's readings on how the hierarchal and systemic nature of racism and sexism in the United States are naturally reinforced by capitalism and class society, and how intersectional struggles must be fought along class lines to create concrete change of their material conditions. I hadn't really known about Davis before writing it, but I wish I did because her analysis is incredible and exactly what I was trying to get at in that essay and more! I talked about how feminists within academia are disconnected from that challenges that working class women actually face on a material basis, and instead only seek to discuss feminism in the abstract in a privileged position as academics who likely come from more affluent or backgrounds to even be able to be there in the first place. Joy Castro's "On Becoming Educated" was a really interesting read, although I wish it directly confronted the class aspect of her critique of feminism in academia, she touched on it multiple times and it would've been cool to see a more class-conscious and nuanced approach like what Davis presents in this video.

    Another point (from my European perspective), is that the focus is so much between men and women (Nordic countries and central European countries). With special focus of white people. The real problems are indeed the strong hierarchies and social status. And the fact that all people, of all genders and of all races are not given the same opportunities. That's the real problem with our society. What's the point of having 50% woman CEO'S? How is that going to help our society? How is that going to create opportunities to people of a "lower" social class?

    I remember a few years i was taking the train to my university in the east of the netherlands and I noticed a girl from my class who was always bragging about her 'woke', feminist politics. We had a chat. Me being a marxist, i asked her about her views on Bernie Sanders (the 2016 elections were coming up and I wasn't trying to seem too radical). She responded: no, I don't want another man in power, i sincerely hope it'll be Hillary Clinton. I was shocked the poisonous politics from the USA had hit my country. It's only worsened through the years. This 'radical' glossey liberal feminism must be destroyed by all means.

    "Standards for feminism are created by those who have already ascended economic hierarchy and are attempting to make the last climb to the top. How is this relevant to the women who are at the very bottom?" This statement floored me. I never was a feminist and neither was my mother or my sister. We were all strong women fighting through poverty and yet my mother insisted on learning, always. Digging through dumpsters for food and lugging water around just to survive. We never had the luxury of having an argument about women not in STEM fields. Men and women in my world had to survive day one together. It did make me strong though. I don't need a man to survive...but I want one beside me..toiling and digging deep. Feminism isn't for me.

    this is so relevant for the topic of pornography, how mainstream feminism keeps advocating for "reforming" porn (i.e. "feminist" porn, onlyfans, etc.) instead of abolishing it. the women who are able to participate in such reforms are pushing aside hundreds of thousands of women and girls who are sexually exploited all over the world. the commodification of sex work gentrifies that awful business and makes it pass as "empowering", as something women should do to "embrace" our sexuality, when there are many other ways to do so without contributing to the upholding of a system that exploits women and girls.

    I was asked if I was a feminist recently. I am a white male. Instead of giving a simple “yes” I said that I am unsure what it would even mean to say I was a feminist as I felt it an almost platitudinous to simply state that I believe in women’s right therefore I was a feminist. I was scolded by the women in my presence who took it as a personal insult that I couldn’t simply say “yes I am a feminist” and be done with it. I felt horrible and questioned whether there was some latent sexism that I harbored that caused me to respond in that way but after reading and hearing things similar to this it has validated my concern to simply comply to a simple narrative that treats every issue from a position of simply men and women. Unfortunately, I know a lot of men that are very confident in their declaration of being feminists solely based on the simple idea that men and women are equal but who in practice are extremely sexist in their conduct.
