I think the thing about the patriarchy is the grooming. So you have a group maintaining the power through asserting a system that is not the best. The best is to always believe and support the future as the parent does for the child, a system of love that needs to oppressed by decades of grooming, dividing the young into have and nots, those with a future and those without. And both need to be groomed, the master and the servant.
Gosh, isn't it such a dreary thing having to work out what the right thing to say is, firstly working out what is actually important. I wonder if other people just know, me, I have only a vague idea of what goes on in my mind. Then to figure out how to word the message, trixy things words, sometimes I think the words someone says is exactly right but I can't even borrow the words as their experience is theirs. They are only borrowed, after all, words, I mean.
