Feminism is a political framework, not an identity. Those who treat it as an identity think saying things is more important than doing things.

Saying patriarchy sucks isn’t enough, actively working to dismantle patriarchy is feminist politics.

Recognising what helps patriarchy and what is helped by patriarchy is feminist politics. Dismantling all of that is feminist politics.

And sorry but individualised self projection or individual efforts won’t cut it. The former is fueled by neoliberal desire for personal gain & the latter by internalising neoliberal belief that the individual is somehow supreme. Both are destructive. Both weaken feminist politics

You want patriarchy gone? Then cultivate and nurture revolutionary feminist spaces. Collectively hold men and problematic women accountable. And don’t equate accountability with destruction. Equate it with co-learning & growing together. Take space away from neoliberal projectors

In my opinion (& millions of ancestors & other folks) patriarchy will persist as long as the capitalist mode of production persists. Understanding intersections is not enough! Actively naming what causes those intersectional marginalisations & dismantling it all is the real work.

For the Patriarchy to die, Capitalism must die too!

Capitalism’s murder (it ain’t going to die on it’s own) needs to be planned. Call me biased but the answer is in revolutionary politics. You can choose to do it differently but at the end sab ko inquilaab ko he galay lagaana paray ga
