I don’t understand why there are so many people who consider themselves “Marxist feminists”, but at the same time are distracted by astrology.

The origin of feminism is working class, and as a working class movement, it is materialist. I don’t know if they at least know what dialectical materialism is, since they don’t see such an abysmal contradiction between astrology (pseudoscience) and feminism (materialism).

They remind me of the liberal “feminist” Gloria Steinem.

And the same with some anarchists.

What do you think about it?

    I think you have to accept that people will get distracted by useless bullshit and deal with things as they are. I know astrology people that contribute to the community in various ways (mutual aid and such) despite believing in all kinds of woo.
