“Feminism is just about choice” “feminism is good for women” Also feminism: In The Second Sex (1949), de Beauvoir wrote: “No woman should be authorized to stay at home… Women should not be allowed to have that choice, precisely because if there is such a choice, too many women will make it.” The mother of modern feminism believed women had to be denied freedom, because freedom would make them choose traditional roles. Firestone: In The Dialectic of Sex (1970), Firestone wrote: “The end goal of feminist revolution must be… not just the elimination of male privilege but of the sex distinction itself: genital differences between human beings would no longer matter culturally… The tyranny of the biological family would be broken.” The goal was never equality, it was the destruction of sex-based reality. Betty Friedan: “women who 'adjust' as housewives, who grow up wanting to be 'just a housewife,' are in as much danger as the millions who walked to their own death in the concentration camps...they ate suffering a slow death of mind and spirit.” Kate Millett: Sexual Politics (1970) argued: “The chief institution of patriarchy is the family. The family unit must go…” Gloria Steinem: “We Became the Men We Wanted to Marry” Steinem’s vision of feminism wasn’t about honoring womanhood, but replacing it, with a female iteration of male ambition. Friedrich Engels: In The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State, Engels (Marx’s collaborator) wrote: “The modern individual family is founded on the open or concealed domestic slavery of the wife.”To destroy capitalism, you had to destroy the traditional family. That’s why early socialist movements embraced feminism, not to liberate women, but to dissolve the structure that made civilization sustainable.

Uganda showing us how residential construction with brick is done the modern, refined way. Kyatiri House sits near a small village in Masindi District equatorial sun without mechanical cooling. The architects oriented heavy brick walls strictly north-south. Those walls do one thing: block the low morning and evening sun completely. East and west are sealed. North and south open up entirely. That single decision unlocks everything else. Full glazing on the north and south facades. Unobstructed cross-ventilation. No AC. The brick isn’t aesthetic it is the climate strategy. Inside, terrazzo floors cast before the walls went up. Eucalyptus planks on the open facades. Pine ceiling boards. Every material local, every choice deliberate. 📍Kyatiri House, Masindi District, Uganda. Architects: Local Works Studio. 📷 Local Works Studio

We sometimes pay too much money for such simple jobs.

BYD is not just a carmaker. It has built the SkyRail line in São Paulo, Brazil. This is BYD’s first overseas rail transit project, tailor-made for the city that has no extra room for conventional ground rails.

In 2026 it is effectively meaningless whether or not women ‘identify’ as a feminist. Anyone born after 1965 has had feminist ideologies influence their upbringing, education, and identities. It was never about a moral high ground. It was about saturating the social fabric.

the most dangerous person to Google isn't OpenAI or Apple.. It's a guy named Raymond Hill who works alone, takes no money, and built the world's best ad blocker Google tried buying him. He said no Google tried waiting him out. He kept shipping Google changed Chrome's rules entirely. He moved to Firefox and kept going 63,000 GitHub stars. $0 revenue.

A MIT professor gave a 1-hour lecture in 2019 that has 18 million views. He died 5 months after recording it. It was his final gift to the world. Patrick Winston taught at MIT for 50 years. The smartest engineers on earth sat in his classroom. And he spent his last lecture teaching them the one skill their degrees never covered. How to speak. 15 lessons that will change how you communicate forever: Never open with a joke. Your audience is not ready to laugh yet. Open with a promise of what they will know by the end. Your ideas are like your children. You are too close to them. What is obvious to you is invisible to everyone else. Explain the obvious. The 5-minute rule: the first 5 minutes of any talk determine whether people will listen for the next 55. Spend more time on your opening than anything else. Repeat your most important idea 3 times in 3 different ways. Once is never enough. Build a fence around your idea. Tell people what it is NOT before you tell them what it IS. Verbal punctuation. Pause. Let the idea land before moving to the next one. Ask questions nobody will answer. Then wait 7 seconds. The silence is not awkward. It is processing. Never read your slides. Your audience can read. They cannot listen and read simultaneously. Use the board not the slides. Writing forces you to slow down. Slowing down forces clarity. Inspire before you inform. Nobody learns from someone they are not inspired by. End with a contribution not a summary. Tell them what you gave them. Not what you said. Never say thank you at the end. It is weak. End with something that lands. Stories make ideas stick. Data makes ideas understood. You need both. In that order. The quality of your communication determines the quality of your ideas in the eyes of the world. Not the ideas themselves. Practice is not preparation. Practice IS the skill. Patrick Winston understood something most people spend their entire careers missing. Your ideas are only as powerful as your ability to transfer them into someone else's mind. You can be the smartest person in the room and be completely invisible. Or you can master communication and make average ideas feel like breakthroughs. He chose to spend his last lecture teaching this. Watch it tonight. Bookmark this first. Follow @cyrilXBT for more lessons from the people who built the future.

Everything women demand from a man costs money. -Provision costs money. -Protection costs money. -Leadership costs money. -Performance costs money. Everything men ask from a woman costs nothing. -Respect. -Peace. -Loyalty. -Softness. And somehow, what costs nothing is still called "too much" BY MODERN FEMINISTS. 🥺
