This is nonsense that only makes sense if you think of “the patriarchy” as a conscious behavior pattern. You might as well argue that being nonbinary means you escaped capitalism.
- throw38384848 2y agoSome people think about patriarchy this way. In your example about escaping capitalism. If you are a business owner, it requires a lot of mental effort. Keep up with laws, pay taxes on time, find customers... and you may loose everything, if you make a mistake. And benefits are not that great. Some people just prefer to be employees.

- throw38384848 2y agoWorkers are not members of capitalist ruling class. Read Marx.
