"While patriarchy varies across time, culture, and place, it consistently reflects the foundational traits of fascism: violently enforced hierarchy, suppression of dissent, cultures of control, bodily regulation, and systemic violence. Patriarchy intrinsically enforces authoritarian hierarchies and relies on systemic violence. These are not precursors to 'real' fascism—they are its gendered expression."
"Fascism isn’t just brownshirts, jackboots, tiki torches, and rallies, but state-facilitated and regulated, socially tolerated violence. When men’s freedoms are threatened—by surveillance, censorship, or state violence—we call it fascism. But when women are controlled through forced birth, criminalized for their trauma and survival, or stripped of autonomy, it’s 'bad men,' 'culture,' 'personal tragedy,' or crickets."

"The coercive powers of the state would be mobilized to curtail the rights of those who dare to deviate and entrench a tiered system of participation defined by hierarchies of race, gender, religion, wealth, and ancestry. A segregationist policy would restore white male dominance in elite institutions as well as across all spheres of American life."

"The new Mayor of Miami, Florida, is a Democrat. And a woman.
In 2021, Republican Francis Suarez was reelected. He won with 78.6% of the vote.
Tonight, Ellen Higgins became the first Democrat elected mayor in the city in almost 30 years. Unofficial results from tonight’s election show she garnered 59% of the vote to Republican Emilio Gonzalez’s nearly 41%. That’s a ginormous swing."
