Well done! Honestly I appreciate you confirming what I knew about guys like Ben and the like. I don’t consume their stuff but I thought I knew what their “thing” is, and I am glad I wasn’t putting them into a box.

As a black man, patriarchy is...not so cut and dry, especially in America. But on the whole obviously I have more privilege per say than women of color especially but white women in some circumstances, and people of the LGBTQIA+ community. But it all sucks. I have always said if your philosophy in life or your politics hurt someone/constrain someone and that is something that brings you joy? Perhaps there needs to be a check on that moral compass.

I agree totally. Patriarchy hurts everyone. Excellent piece.
