I think making sure people know you are above it all is the primary reason you post here.
I obviously disagree that that's the point of all of my posts but people see what they want to see.

It makes as much sense as anyone else continuing to post here.

Really? It's a pretty popular conspiracy theory.

Everyone here is working so hard but at the same time posting on this board 50x a day. Right?

Men blaming women for every single problem is an innovative approach I've never seen employed here before.
I notice you don't have any refutation for the actual truth of the historical facts supporting what I said.
Men bankrolled feminism. I'm not sure how that has anything to do with blaming women. But hey, don't let me or historical facts get in the way of a good female victimhood cry.
This is the revisionist secret of feminism: most women were not in favor of it initially. That's why wealthy industrialists had to bankroll it to get a head of steam going with it.
It's also why none other than Simone de Beauvoir wrote that women should not be allowed to choose whether they wanted a traditional family life vs a feminist life because too many of them would choose the former. And that was in The Second Sex, published in 1949, which is widely regarded as marking the 2nd wave of feminism.
Many states held referendums on women's suffrage in which women were allowed to vote. In the overwhelming majority of them, women voted against having the right to vote. In some states by a huge margin.
If not for the MEN who bankrolled the propaganda campaign, we might not be looking at 2/3s of the female population with a diagnosed mental condition in America.

That happens to fit the historical facts.
Be careful, now. You're getting awful close to blaming women on this topic instead of men.

Which facts, specifically?
Many women were already working in factories in the mid 1800s.

I'd bet her HR department would fight for her return if she so chose.

Fat Bastard is 100% correct.. I've worked 84 plus hours a week for 4 months without a day off back in the day, and it wasn't because I didn't want to spend time with my family. The opposite, I wanted to provide for them.
Nobody was deprived of love..... my son is a doctor and my daughter has a masters in psychology and works with austic children.
Some ole baws around here aren't what you think we are.

Hopefully with efficiencies from AI we see this reduced
Some cultures are lazier than others. You see efficiencies as a way to work less. I see them as an opportunity to make more money by applying those extra hours to something else productive.

Call me all the names you want but my goal is to work as few hours possible while making the most money possible. Most if not all people in white collar jobs aren’t working for a huge chunk of the time they are “at work” anyway.

I view hard work as a virtue. And, the benefits my family get from me working hard is worth the effort i put out. I couldn't imagine deciding to work less for my own benefit and then forcing my kids/wife to have a lesser life or less security, etc.
There's no harm in hard work.

With..?? Women’s rights? To encourage the many women who were already working in Factories to continue working in factories?

It really isn’t.
That is a M-F 9-5.
I am actually envious. I worked 60 last week.

The fact that the Rockefellers funded several all-women's colleges, which (of course) spread the gospel of feminism. They were the propaganda arm couching progressive engineering in philanthropic donations.
As is obvious today, the triarchy of pushing "progressive" ideas is academia, the entertainment industry, and the media.
Back then it was just academia. They knew exactly what they were doing. And the Rockefeller's involvement became less covert with 2nd and 3rd wave feminism, donating directly to NOW and other pro-abortion groups.
Also the fact that women did not support feminism or even the right to vote when proposed. Feminism—in direct opposition to the revisionist history we see today—was not an organic movement. It was an orchestrated one.
It was not a grassroots, bottom-up movement. It was a top-down, socially engineered movement.
And yeah, it wasn't all men who bankrolled it. Wealthy women did too...in fact, wealthy women probably contributed more directly to feminist movements. But you immediately go to claiming victimhood for "blaming women," so I was trying to focus on the men involved.

The election results are harder to find, but it's super easy to find as many sources as you want for anti-suffragist women's groups from back then.

I stand corrected. Here's my amended statement: "If not for the MEN who bankrolled the propaganda campaign, we might not be looking at 2/3s of the female population who need to seek mental health treatment in the United States."
