4. It is beyond disturbing. Several years ago, I was "invited to leave" a

suupposed discussion on human trafficking. There were many issues with this discussion, on every level. When they finally recognized me (they were pissed about my comments on the military already), I pointed out that I had not heard one word about the one word underlying the horrors of trafficking, and that until THAT was acknowleged, they were wasting time and energy. That word, of course, is PATRIARCHY, with its stated premise that women and children are basically less than human, chattel to be bought, sold, used and abused.

5. Oh yes, I've been told many times not to use that word

Cause it'll scare people off.

Tf kinda bs is that? How can we end a thing if we can't name it?

6. Exactly.
