I don’t support a woman just because she’s a woman. I support a woman who dismantles not upholds patriarchy. I’m a registered NY Independent to the left of Dems.
Regardless of your politics, listen to the many women - & some men - who are hurt & furious re #ElizabethWarren

I know the difference between supporting a woman simply for being a woman and supporting instead a woman who dismantles patriarchy and the oppressions it brings. That’s why I wrote this essay on women and power
Whatever political differences you have with #ElizabethWarren, unless the US reckons with the fact it has a sexual predator as President and that misogyny played a role in the way Warren was treated during her campaign, this country will miss a vital chance to reckon w/patriarchy
The majority of white women voters in ghe US thought a sexual predator was electable and yet one of the most qualified women for president this country has seen was considered unelectable by many.
Stop and think about that.
Stop and think about that.
Whatever your politics - leftist, centrist, on the right - you should know that patriarchy is central to so much in the US.
You should know whether you’re radical or obedient, your “comrades” on the left, in the middle, on the right, are more likely than not misogynist.

And that if it hasn’t already, that patriarchy will come for you.
Look at what a white supremacist, capitalist country did to the campaign of #ElizabethWarren - white and wealthy woman.
And it’s much worse for those of us not white and not wealthy

Many women don’t want to hear this. Women on the left think their comrades are better than the men on the right.
The women in the right think the same.
Some think misogyny comes only for “weak” women, women with the “wrong” politics, etc.

You should know: I haven’t endorsed anyone in this primary.
And you should know this:
- almost half of people polled in 75 countries including the US feel men are superior political leaders theguardian.com/global-develop… #ElizabethWarren
