Untenable History : A BIPOC critique of David Graeber and David Wengrow’s “Dawn of Everything.” in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

“Some omissions are more egregious than others, but even small ones reveal something other than fact-based history propelling this project. For instance, Graeber and Wengrow revive Maria Gimbutas’ much-debated and largely refuted (at least within archaeological circles) idea of a prehistoric mother goddess cult idea for Çatalhöyük. Focusing on three striking figurines categorized as female (although two might be debatable), they conclude that in the absence of any male parallels such figurines might indeed be “matriarchs” after all, or at least expressions of female status or “ritual priority.” This interpretation, at least in its more tempered version, appears to draw from our interpretation of these figures as likely female, and expressive of a certain status related to the accumulation of age, experience, and success. However, it conveniently ignores the majority of our research on the bulk of Çatalhöyük figurines that are tiny clay animals and horns, as well as our qualifying (and frequently repeated) remark that we should not assume that Neolithic human figurines obeyed a rigid female/male binary, or that sex-based categories held the same meanings or importance as they do in many contemporary cultures.”

I think it is interesting how we try to guess if women or men had more power based on the ratio of figures.

This subreddit has interesting lore it started as a pinkpillfeminism offshoot, and with some femcels which they called themself that. The pinkpillers use to support FDS with everything, but the subreddit mods betrayed them, and start to embrace lookism, and started to focus more appearance more.

Where did this “males are biologically disposable” logic come from? (hexbear.net)

It seems to first come from MRA spaces, but then I seen some TERFs co-opt it, and even the FDS subreddit uses some of that logic?

Is this really interpretation people are getting from nature? I did see FDS, and TERFs try to compare humans to bee social structures which is a weird take.

Why do TERFs do incel logic so much, and never notice it? in c/[email protected]

It is very weird how they both call each other “male” or “female” like I swear both of these group treat each other as different species.

I notice they will do the "males are evil default", and some of them have conspiracy theory's like artificial wombs are going to replace women.

On the incel side you have conspiracy theory's that think women are trying to "genocide ugly males", and think that women are evil. Both of these groups are copying each other more than they would hate to admit.

Would agriculture be considered anprim, or is hunter gathering more ideal for them?

I found this paper, and it is really an interesting read.

Abstract: "Matrilineal in Minangkabau is well-known, especially by social scientists. This research is also deal with matrilineal in Minangkabau society. It specifically focuses on the position of men in the matrilineal andtheir view of the position.This research was conducted in Padang by a qualitative method. Data were collected from participant observations and in-depth interview. Research findings showed that Minangkabau men experienced an imbalance between obligations and rights in kinship.They were honored as the leader of their relative through some social and economic responsibilities. On the other hand, they did not have a complete right to the economic resources that are controlled by the woman. The men were discriminated against based on this regulation. There are massive differences between men and women related to the legacy. There were numerous abandoned men in their old age. However, the Minangkabau men did not consider it because of the effect of matrilineal customs."

Why does a dating subreddit need to talk about the homeless this way? in c/[email protected]

FDS causes a feedback loop with the manosphere subreddits where now they will post something about women hating homeless men. Then FDS will respond back to them.
