By Edie Wyatt, published 24/7/2020According to progressives, the diagnosis of all societal inequality and injustice is due solely to institutional and systematic sins of patriarchy, racism, homophobia, islamophobia and transphobia.

Joe
No logical connection was intended. And with your extensive background knowledge, you would know that they were separate assertions to help those who confuse Karl Marx with Groucho Marx (“Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others”).

I'm sorry but this is one hell of a tortuous piece. I'm sure the author would like to 'spit it out' but her BA with honours was in the way.
Her twitter feed reveals a Fox News and Trump defending evangelist of the small business variety which has become so predominate within conservative political ranks. Plenty of push button phrases but really little to grasp. “Completely disappearing from the progressives' radar are the problems that are too awkward for feminist's new bedfellows. Female Genital Mutilation, grooming gangs and child brides are all difficult issues to raise when your intersectional allies may accuse you of Islamophobia.” Why are these mainly overseas issues ones that Australian feminists need to be engaged in? People who roll them out incessantly are by definition are likely to be race-baiting hardcore religious types. “Since progressives control the bulk of cultural production in the western world, we are all becoming accustomed to the simplistic answers that are required for the complex questions that women face. I am a religious person, I understand the attraction of stable doctrine, but this is a secular state. A secular state is not an atheist state, it is supposed to be a state neutral to both religion and ideology. It is time we raised our hand and told the truth.” Well one of the truths is that the right used the prospect of dramatic increases in domestic violence and incest as a result of 'inflicting' prolonged lock-downs due to the Covid virus. There was little discussion of why this would be such a threat but the direct implication was that men spending more time at home was deemed a risk to families. Sorry, both sides tarred very much from the same brush. Posted by SteeleRedux, Friday, 24 July 2020 2:24:38 PM

Christaphobia goes hand in hand with pseudo science and regressives policies.

At this juncture of the week I thought of Intersectionality having multiple isms on a train.
But then, more crucially, does eating too much Curry cause RocketAss-m, bordering on Levitation, a real problem on a train? Anyways, I thought I'd expose my newest CLEAN Limerick to the great unwashed of OLO. Here tis: ______________________________________ I can’t get no, satisfaction Life in COVID. No reaction Well there’s booze. And there’s food I’m a prude. Don’t be rude! I can't get No. Just double negation :) _____________________________________________ by Pete With sincere ape-ologies to The Rolling Stones http//youtu.be/nrIPxlFzDi0 Posted by plantagenet, Friday, 24 July 2020 5:36:46 PM

And here I'm talking about tried, tested and proven over more than half a century, bismuth 213. In trials in day clinic settings, patients with terminal cancers walk in, had their treatment, and were clear inside a couple of hours. And without significant damage to healthy cells. minus the nausa and hair loss etc. Repeatable as often as necessary?
Includes, death sentence cancers like pancreatic cancer, stage four ovarian cancer, brain cancer and myeloid leukemia.
And no it's not complementary or alternative medicine but routinely ignored by big pharma and the highly lucrative "cancer industry"
As to the rest of your commentary, as a hetrosexual male not qualified to comment.
But couldn't have a sexual relationship with a gender reassigned in a blue fit.
Although I respect that it's their choice and their happiness/sexual fulfillment. But needs must, remain inside that gender specific community. And as far as that goes, I'm ok with that!
Take care and stay safe, and be sure to ask your, ontological specialist, why don't we have Bismuh 213? After all, it's a virtually free byproduct of MSR thorium! Or if you will, the cleanest, safest, cheapest, reliable, dispatchable energy in the world and carbon free to boot.
Or, is big pharma profits more important than (curable) global cancer death tolls that excceed two million P.A.!?
Cancer has mostly been an entirely unnecessary, rolling global pandemic, for all of my living memory, with possible viral implications!?
