Somehow it's really hard to get a strait answer on what is meant by matriarchy here. On the one hand it's called egalitarian, on the other hand you are saying most of the leaders will be women anyway. Being a good and wise leader depends on your level of consciousness, not your gender. (Men treated women badly not because they are men, it's a matter of levels of consciousness. If women were physically stronger than men, we'd be talking about how badly women treated men. Can you see that it was never personal ?) The only real way to have a better society is to raise the general level of consciousness, for man and woman. Conscious people treat each other better.

How about saying what it actually is ? There seems to be a lot of confusion.

Some reality transurfing channels.

The point is that when you make these generalizations about whiteness, maleness, Europeaness etc, you are including a whole bunch of men who have nothing to do with the power structures at the top. Ur literally doing racism etc.

@Rafael Thundercat, when i watched that woman's video about matriarchy as the next wave of feminism, her energy felt free of anger and i really did sense it was more about egalitarianism. The more i listen to you the more i sense a kind of objectifying of "whiteness", "maleness", or "Europeaness" as some kind of problem out there. It feels more like reverse racism to be honest. I understand that the divine feminine has been suppressed for thousands of years, and it's natural for there to be a backlash. To me this still feels very much like the backlash phase. Is this movement coming from a place of love, or is there still an element of revenge there ?

Was the way that the capitalist system was set up really caused by "whiteness" or "maleness", or was it just the way evolution played itself out ?

With all due respect, How about being a little bit more open to actually having a proper discussion in these threads if you really want the message to land. Like human beings talking to each other, instead of just directing each other to reading material. Just a thought.

LOL, as far as the egalitarian society thing goes, it might not be so far fetched after all. I remember when covid happened and they couldn't make movies, it was like movie stars began to lose that magical aura overnight. People have lost all respect for politicians because everything is more transparent now. AI will make differentiation based on knowledge irrelevant. And eventually the billionaires will be forced to share the abundance if they dont want to live in absolute hell. Im not saying an egalitarian society will come about through our own selflessness, but it kinda seems like evolution is pushing us in that direction for our own survival.

I'm sure there are feminists out there who are more about conquest, but it seems that the type of matriarchy talked about here, refers to an egalitarian society. So the term matriarchy might be a bit misleading.

Her videos are pretty good. "Unlearning internalized capitalism" and "starving the patriarchy" seem to be different ways of saying the same thing.

Yes, so the question is, why even call it a matriarchy at all ? Why not just call it egalitarian, and then everyone's happy.

Thank you, I actually really enjoyed her video. I was thinking if you ladies want to promote the matriarchy, I would use words like egalitarian more often. Because when us guys here the word matriarchy, we immediately think its gonna be exactly like patriarchy but women have all the power. And that's not what she is saying at all.

From what I can tell, this definition of matriarchy, is more just about egalitarianism.

This video makes sense, I am all for women being in their power. One thing that I couldn't find in the video though was a definition of matriarchy. What exactly do you mean when you use the word matriarchy ?

@Leo Gura Is this the end of the youtube channel, or will you still post longer videos there from time to time ?

I think you misinterpreted my words. I genuinely dont know what it is that this brand of feminism wants, and I'd like to understand. But it seems like the women in this thread are not willing to have an actual conversation. So these threads tend to end up being a bunch of boys and girls smirking at each other from a distance. Not very productive.

Sam is in complete denial of what happened in Gaza, so it's to be expected that he would want to demonize someone like Hasan.

I dont understand why it's so hard for the women in this thread to say in their own words, what it is that their version of feminism actually wants ?

@Lila9 I think I asked @Rafael Thundercat a very reasonable question here earlier, without any response. If you want men to understand these issues better, how about getting off the high horse, and actually having some constructive communication ?

Oops, wrong music thread. How to delete a post ?

The 114 mystical sayings of Jesus is the real reason the Gospel of Thomas was left out of the bible.
