I don’t mind Clementine, but feel she tries to turn everything into big goodies and baddies categories. Lazy thinking. Count the number of times she uses the word ‘patriarchy’ in this article, for example. It’s like people who see things like capitalism or socialism, or the Left and Right, as the cause of our problems. Those terms make people feel good because caricatures are so juicy. It’s a very long bow to use a a fascist extremist as evidence of male patriarchy in action. And again I think she’s been unfair to police here, the footage I saw had them quickly settling an ugly situation.
