Yes, it's absolutely a form of mind-disease, that once infected is very hard to shake. It's a variation of communism, where our natural instincts to form communities become hijacked by a destructive meme.

The Frankfurt School (neo-Marxists) put a lot of effort into crafting a more effective strain than the old communism, and modern feminism is very much a result of those efforts. The infection, virus if you like, takes steps to protect itself and to propagate, just like a computer virus. Again, that's hijacking a natural neural pathway, which is why the infected have no real idea what happened to them. They think they just have a higher level of awareness ('woke') yet will instantly slide away from any facts or situations that contradict their narrative.

At best, Wolf can be considered a recovering feminist, who spots the odd glimmer of reality and mistakes it for her having a Great Insight that she must share, which causes normal people to do that annoying "Even Naomi Wolf says..." shit.

Super insightful.

I've often said religion (and dogmas) are social viruses.

Our ability to absorb dogma and then pass it on is surely a survival trait for things such as "Don't eat yellow snow" or "You'll catch more fish with a net", but it seems the same mechanism can be hijacked, just like a virus hijacks a cell to replicate.

Go jungle trekking in deepest Borneo and at 7pm, as the sun sets, you'll hear in the distance someone warbling in Arabic the Islamic call to prayer. With an Arabian accent.

We absorb our memes, we protect them, we want to pass them on, but some of them are destructive intruders; a disease. At the Frankfurt School they created on purpose the 'Critical (subject)' family of destruction, to destroy Western Civilization.

It seems to be working, but the communism they think will take over will be speaking Chinese, and with no time for the wide-eyed idiots when they're no longer useful.
