people who refuse to believe that misogyny is an axis of oppression that actually systemically shapes society at large, violence against women as a class, and individuals behavior while living under these conditions should not be able to call themselves leftists of any stripe. without factoring misogyny you have no analysis worth speaking of. it is not jus something you throw onto the real issues for flavor, it’s it’s own axis that intersects with other major oppressive systems. the fact that I have to say this goes up show how deeply misogyny is ingrained. we don’t think about it or notice it. rape and domestic violence aren’t hate crimes, after all. how many women have been murdered by men in 2018? who cares? that’s every day – that’s just what happens. no pattern. incidental.
