Guess what you wouldn’t find in a post apocalypse?
Fat people. Because there isn’t enough food.
Warrior women. Because wombs are too valuable.
LGBT. Because refusing your biologically designated roles is not an option when the shit hits the fan.
Leftists think there is an oppressive patriarchy holding all of them back. In reality, the “patriarchy” is the only model that generates enough surplus value to tolerate the existence of leftists at all.
Also, there has to be something akin to the “beta bux/alpha fux” dual mating strategy going on here. We are constantly told that women in media must be frumpy lesbians in order to represent real world women, but at the same time real life has become basically pornographic. Fit and pretty girls wear heavy makeup and thin tight yoga pants everywhere now. The contrast between what we are told is “realistic” and what we see everyday with our own two eyes…
I guess that’s just the natural inversive impulse of subversive and resentful leftist ideologies. No different than the psyops they run to obscure black crime or Jewish power.
Agree, but I would say heteronormativity rather than the patriarchy.
Guess what also isn't in an apocalypse? Leftists, it's only teh cushy life they all have now that gives them even time to think about these things. If there ever is such a scenario expect the world to return to tradition just to survive, women bearing and rearing children, men to fight and protect. Leftism has no space in this because they will all die infighting while not looking for food or defending their own.
They can't run fast enough?
Much like 'study hard, work hard and be honest to get ahead'. No, these are not the people getting ahead. It's the one who know other ones, and are passably honest on the surface, while squirreling away opportunities (mostly illegal).
Reminds me of the honest joke where the boss tells his employee - 'if you work twice as hard I can buy another ferrari'.
FO1-2 has both fat people and 'warrior women' though. There's actually a fair amount of food in the wasteland because farming, so wealthy people can get fatter. And there's also no need for huge levels of reproduction so a lot of women are pressed into male-led roles like guards and such.
