    There were anti suffrage women’s groups.

    There were pro-Nazi Jewish people in Germany until they came for them too.

    There’s always some people within a population who just choose to side with power, even power that loathes them, in hopes they’ll become a favorite pet.

    The log cabin Republicans come to mind.

      Famously, Mother Jones didn’t believe in women’s suffrage. She believed it was a distraction from class warfare.

      I tend to align more with Simone de Beauvoir who saw women as a disadvantaged class as well. I think it’s a helpful lens for how we consider gender dynamics and patriarchal structures.

        Agreed. And if I can just add as to point out the fluid dynamics of modern post-constructionalism as seen through the lens of and espoused by such pioneering women as Marjorie Jacqueline Bouvier-Simpson.

      The pro Nazi Jews are actually kinda funny in a horrifically dark way

      They even had a chant! “Down with us! Down with us!”
