Good post. It took me a long time to figure out and then attempt to articulate the problems with recapitulating the same enormity we're supposed to oppose (horrible, exploitive system of social relations), and trying to obfuscate that reality with loud dogma. I could never figure out a reform remedy. It seems to be one of those "you can't get there from here" things. It needs a complete re-think and a new approach altogether.

Thank you, James. I concur that a complete re-think is in order. "Fight Club" could've been one of many catalysts for that happening if we (myself included) would've gotten the message.

Very well done! Glad I had a part in this. I love "Male Pattern Violence." Was that in the flick or is that yours?

Thank you! And that phrase is used by second wave feminists (not to be confused with what passes for "feminism" today).

One other thing. It’s good to find a person ahead of me. Your progress helps me make sense of my own.

That is very kind of you, GLW. And I adhere to a similar approach!
