You have to understand that I am not a human-centrist. I might consider the other life forms on the planet as having more so-called "rights" than all humans, men, women or anyone.
Having said that, I tend to prioritize on the basis of who is more oppressed. Based on that, I side with women over men. I side with children over adults. The two might be in conflict on this one. Perhaps the conflict is one that cannot be reconciled.
I also side with bears over developers. Since the religious right versus secular narrative bores me to tears, perhaps my saga is one best sung with the grizzlies.
What if one's philosophy does not recognize "property"? Socialist feminists, for whom I have great respect on the overwhelming majority of issues, have never addressed this issue to my satisfaction.
Without property, it is still wrong to force an individual to act as a life-support system. I would say that without property, it makes even less sense to force a person's body to be the property of somebody else, whether a CEO, a legislator, a judge, or a fetus.
The fetus still has no greater claim to the womb than the woman carrying it does.
We've had feminists and "(pro-women) activists" post on our forums before. They ran off because they couldn't substantiate their claims/arguments with any substance and most of their claims/arguments required some sort of "leap of faith". What's weird is that they had one idle mod (Ivar T) take sides and also state (without any evidence to support his claim) that what they spout about women and IT is true.
I have never taken things on "blind faith", and I never will. Too much destructive BS in the 20th century was peddled around on "blind faith". And yes, some of that includes the "supremacist" beliefs of national-socialism. Other portions include "faith-healing" and 1950s/60s fascination with martians, UFOs, the like. It's happening again with most Abrahamic religions around the globe.
edit;Lots of political movements are figuring out the hard way to either "moderate" their approach or be forced out of existence from lack of interest during the 21st century.
