Not only is this blatant opportunism by Khamenei to excuse the rampant sexism that Iranian government embodies and seems to use both as a distraction from internal political failures and international pressure but it is also categorically wrong because women's labor was not in effect something that capitalists entrepreneurs desired collectively to establish. Capitalist class benefits from unpaid labor in general because it reduces the monetization of economy outside of capitalist control which at all levels of chain of production reduces the value of labor. In effect, women entering work force increased labor costs because previously free labor started requiring expense from the pocket of labor which is factored into wage demands. This is something that capitalist class still tries to make into a public expense by socializing its costs to public programs, such as food aid, maternity benefits and other needs that companies still inadequately compensate their employees otherwise.
Since they realized they can get away with sanitizing a genocide through headlines that are meant to manufacture not just consent but also revel in contradiction they have gotten only more audacious with what they try to whitewash. In a way Israeli and American politicians as well as the English media supporting them are themselves deconstructing the narrative they spent so long building because they are so arrogant because of being accustomed to acting with no accountability. They don't realize how insane this sounds to anyone but the rabid Zionists and entranced Israeli public and American liberals and neocons.
I don't know what to think if even leftist news would rather believe in something so far-fetched as dirty bombs not to mention the lib or trumpist mass panic about alien or Iranian invasion instead of the banal reality that USA is a full on surveillance state. I guess it's a bit too boring and we require more excitement now in the ever-escalating stakes environment.
Wasn't it basically confirmed back years ago when BLM protests were happening that three-lettered agencies were filming it all with drones?
Did it collapse into anything? Americans always loved this sort of thing. I think there is a reason why modern urban legends and sci-fi conspiracies are so common in American folklore and this is just more of the same.
Why are there so few windows and why are they so small? It wouldn't be terrible housing if there was greenery, few cafes and shops around and the whole thing was more lively but that won't fly with American zoning laws.
I saw this in the news today and first comment I have seen was about gender of the shooter. All political discourse is now downstream from social media sheikhs whose every thought is obsessively occupied by trans people.
Khamenei is wrong on both accounts, the proletarianization of women didn't happen on account of capitalist class for profit motive but due to state-level national interest that overrode profit driven structural changes that were happening within Western economies. Now of course capitalist class not only can and often did mobilize state for profit motive but rather outright prefers to utilize state for its interest but wartime conditions that threatens survival of capital class created a different equation in which self-preservation was enough of a pressure.
One cannot accept the suggestion that women only acquired rights on clemency of capitalists to benefit of capitalists. Because not only is it false and gives into the exact sort of tautology that Khamenei spouts here that appears correct but also lets all sorts of reactionaries make false arguments about role of women (and minors, minorities and all types of exploited groups). All sorts of worker liberation is against capitalist self-interest and are only conceded with enough pressure in which the other outcome is worse for their class interest.
Women's liberation follows capitalism destroying the livelihood of women by uneven proletarianization that subjugated women to exploited labor for benefit of capital class, in which if profit interest was followed they would rather women be extinct which is obviously against the interest of women in question and functioning society in general as profit interest usually is. Women managed to acquire enough of a leverage to change this state of affairs due to pressure of wartime conditions that made women even more essential and made profit interest a temporarily secondary concern.
