Quote by Tamu Thomas

“The way that we live, the way that we're conditioned, the patriarchy, capitalist, white supremacy. Those systems are all designed to keep the masses knackered so that the chosen few at the top can be successful and can gain from our labor”

“Somehow, as we made our entrance into the realm of young womanhood, we began to lose power. Fascinating research on girlhood is happening these days. It confirms that young girls often feel strong, courageous, highly creative, and powerful until they begin to receive undermining sexist messages that encourage them to conform to conventional notions of femininity. To conform they have to give up power.”

“The belief that women are more powerful when they band together in what has been called sisterhood is disempowering. That men believe they can and should do something by their own ingenuity and skills on their own is an important advantage. Not just feminists believe in the notion of feminine solidarity — a sort of lifetime sorority — but feminists have promoted it relentlessly. It is a disabling fallacy.”

“Resistance to what amounts to a technological religious cult being orchestrated through the very technology those in power want to meld us with, must become a love story for our time. Defiance against our enslavement to a mechanised life, and protection of the children who will inhabit this earth and hopefully their bodies after we're gone, should fuel exhilaration not despair. We have but one life and if we use it to help each other, then failure is impossible.”
