Good morning, everybody. Hope you're doing well. It's Steph. Got a question. I won't read it in great detail

about the origins of feminism. And yeah, we'll talk about that. But I do want to talk in general about

ideologies as a whole, of which feminism is one. There's no such thing as philosophyism.

There's just philosophy, right? So isms are there to keep you from reaching adulthood.

Because if you stay in a state of relative childhood, then what happens is you're easy to control because you're easy to

you stay in an immature mindset. So all ideologies fundamentally there, so all ideologies

fundamentally exist to keep you in a state of perpetual childhood or adolescence.

And the way they do that is to lure you into staying in a mindset of being utterly subject

to external factors.

So when you become an adult, you take 100% self-ownership.

You recognize that there are external factors and you learn to work with

them or around them and so on, right? So when you become an adult, you take 100% responsibility

for your own self and your own life. Now, what ideologies do, though, is they lure you into thinking

that there are external factors that dominate your existence.

And if they can get you to believe that external factors dominate your existence,

then they keep you in a state of perpetual childhood because that's your childhood.

When you're a child, external factors do dominate your existence.

I mean, the family that you're born into, you don't have any control over. The family you stay with,

you don't have any control over. The income of your parents, whether they get along well,

whether they do well or they do badly in their habits, whether they fight or get along,

all of these things are beyond your control, socioeconomic status and all of that along, all of these things are beyond your control,

socioeconomic status and all of that.
