One week I’m gonna make sure I don’t talk about men at all not even once so then I can make a really sexy thread on IRL social and political tools to apnaofy in order to undermine, challenge and threaten Male Power daily
Lots of times, we dig ourselves the grave of “fighting the patriarchy” (all at once) and it can be exhausting & unrewarding to take on an entire structure on your own (though you should always organise against invasive structures)
I like to think of Male Power as the oft-identifiable, strategic, but discrete manifestations of Patriarchy meant to implement or proliferate its ideologies, laws, or energies. Though structures promote/support Male Power, at times IRL only one person may be advocating for it
funny thing is that Male Power isnt always a consciously embodied strategy (its very nature is 2 rationalise itself as apolitical) so if you are smart enough to identify it, you technically know more abt what’s happening than the person w the allotted power over what’s happening
but today is not that day & also there’s a lot to be said about Male Power tho if I had to ARTPOP it in mad summarize it in relevance to life today: #chillculture & debilitating cynicism
