View submission: capitalism's demolition will not dismantle misogyny.
Crenshaw was absolutley not hyper focused class as you are today. Her entire life's work was fighting for feminist causes and against the oppression of **women**. She's not an anti-capitalist. Intersectionality was developed to show how **women** experience oppression in various ways. She intersects race and class with **gender oppression** and yes, those dealing with compound prejudices regarding their race and class will experience harsher punishments from the patriarchy. But intersectionality **does not** state, nor has it ever proported that wealth cancels out the axis of gender oppression. And no amount of revisionist history lessons will change that. Wealthy women may not face class discrimination, but they still very much experience gender discrimination. And that's because **gender** is the central point of misogyny. Not class.
There's nothing here!
