As you watch the glory and power of the feminist revolution in Iran, ask yourself (I’m looking at you people in the U.S. cheering on the feminist revolution vs theocrats over there) what the fuck you are doing to fight theocrats and fascists over here feministgiant.com/p/essay-the-ha…
It is easy to see theocracy when the theocrats don’t look like you.
But it’s imperative to understand that the theocrats who look like you and those who don’t both follow the same rule book: control desire and control our bodies.

It was being built by white men who look like their fathers, brothers, husbands, and sons, not the scary brown men with beards, right?
And white women—mothers, aunts, sisters—all too willing to foot soldier for the patriarchy in return for its crumbs. feministgiant.com/p/essay-the-ha…

No one is under any illusion that the theocrats in Iran:Afghanistan came to office as a result of free and fair elections.
In the U.S., they did.
In the U.S., they did.
In the U.S. the theocrats are in office as a result of free and fair elections in which many white Americans signaled very clearly they wanted their white supremacist Christian zealotry.
