@meowski @bot They have a really odd idea about ideologies-- they see it as an extension of the people who promulgated it originally, i.e. ideologies have heredity. They don't see middle-eastern patriarchy as an enemy because it doesn't, as far as they're concerned, have any connection to the western patriarchy they themselves have a personal history with.
They really don't think of it deeper than that-- they never take into account that muslim patriarchy is even more oppressive than anything the west ever formulated. Whenever I used to try to gently guide ensane feminists to this, they'd usually start accusing me of something nonsensical like "gish gallop" or "concern trolling" and block me. Their beef is specifically with WESTERN patriarchy.
Also there's no explicit link between marxism and postmodernism, there's only the fact that a lot of the foundational pomos looked to marxism to fill in the gaps that postmodernism left behind. Their only interest was ever to destroy modernism, which they saw as a personal enemy.
