Women's Liberation
Feminism is the movement to liberate women from patriarchy.
We stand up for the rights of women as a sex-class. Women have a right to bodily autonomy and to set their own boundaries and have them respected. We resist efforts to limit women's reproductive autonomy. We condemn the men who exploit and abuse women in prostitution and pornography. We oppose all harms and forms of exploitation of women and girls, regardless of whether or not they're sold as "choice" or re-framed as "empowering." We oppose the movement to redefine "women" in a way that erases the realities of our lives and makes organizing for our liberation as a sex-class impossible.
"In the radical feminist view, the new feminism is not just the revival of a serious political movement for social equality. It is the second wave of the most important revolution in history. Its aim: the overthrow of the oldest, most rigid class/caste system in existence, the class system based on sex – a system consolidated over thousands of years, lending the archetypal male and female roles an undeserved legitimacy and seeming permanence." –Shulamith Firestone, The Dialectic of Sex

I‘m not getting my hopes up that any of them will get more than ten months on parole 🙄 It‘s such joke. They‘ll uncover these massive child porn rings and scratch their heads because there are so many. And then the perpetrators will get a slap on the wrist at most. Off with their heads is the only solution that‘ll work.
Are you referring to the Metzelder-case with the ten months on parole? Because that verdict was such a joke. And I bet his ex-girlfriend, who reportet his possession of Child-Pornography, will probably end up with a similar punishment.
Yep. They also caught a guy who worked for the police in 2019 who had like two days worth of child porn on his computers. He got eleven months on parole. It's such a joke.
In Metzelders case by a FEMALE judge. It's so enraging, because they actually could give them more, but they don't, because they are already stigmatized "enough" because their paedophilia is now public knowledge.
