      You must remember that the tendency towards barbarism is an active force all around us. Western society’s walls won’t be stormed without, but from within. Those who hate civilisation know that it cannot be taken by direct assault. It must thus be captured from within.pic.twitter.com/o3ZgByuK8x

      The first 1960s feminists were generally women who had taken some sort of degree & were living domestic lives. Technology had liberated them from housework while pharmacology had released them from excessive procreation. This is the tribe that now threatens civilisation.pic.twitter.com/HxRDKZvvr6

      Differing from their predecessors, feminists made one innovation that has been crucial to the destiny of the West over the last 60 years. They suppress totally the idea that they want a transfer of power. They operate entirely on the principle that their demands are morally just.pic.twitter.com/89VZLNhNRs

      Minogue believes the reason for this change was boredom. The malaise of privileged women due to “a slow death of the mind and spirit.” Feminism was born of boredom, not oppression. The solution? Women clamoured to become wage-slaves; they resolutely fled the challenge of leisure.pic.twitter.com/6K0aDl4TCH

      This is important and we will come back to this: what is meant by leisure? To the Ancient Greeks and Romans it meant higher employment of the mind once the necessities of life have been dealt with. Remember this. It’s one of the crucial differences between the sexes.pic.twitter.com/TYpsuKAL8h

      Women need to be radicalised and have their indignation and moral righteousness exploited to turn them into effective 5th columnists.

          It’s only on this eccentric assumption - that women have identical talents and inclinations to men - that they can support the conclusion that there has been foul play.

          Feminism is fundamental. It means that all judgements must stem from identity as a woman or as an oppressor of women. There’s no nuance. In WW2 Rosie the Riveter was a woman, but she was also a wife, a patriotic American and many other things too. Now she’s just a sacred woman.pic.twitter.com/Gw1scvlFjL

          Men create all civilisation, though of course it is true that without the medium of social/political life none of this could have happened.

          It’s in pursuit of this mistake that they’ve attempted to set up a competing set of writers, philosophers, painters, etc whose talents were suppressed by the patriarchy.

          Western civilisation is unusually open compared to others. At various times in the past many women have had access to education. From the 18th century onwards some women developed a taste for taking up professions restricted to men. By the 19th century they were in the colleges.pic.twitter.com/DtkPO0BoQa
