Thoughts?

She brings up a good point how liberal (aka burgoise) feminism is used as a tool of racism, which imo is also used as a tool of imperialism. (same as western imperialists hiding behind faux support of queer people imo)

I am still watching myself, so I may add comments as I hear stuff.

I've heard the idea that if men were more like women the world would be a better place (frankly still not totally unconvinced of this assertion), but her point that this particular type of submissive/docile woman that is being referenced in the aforementioned hypothetical is in fact manufactured in part by patriarchy is a great point.

In general though, feminism without class consciousness is very pernicious and from my US POV is pretty widespread among middle/upper class groups. It can be difficult to criticize because blatant misogyny is still such a common perspective here, so offering nuanced views on feminism to a bourgeois feminist can be difficult and often seen as hostile.

Fuck, if this isn't the truth! Breaking through privilege of any type is rough for everyone involved, but so very powerful if you can accomplish it.
