Radical feminism
The Rebel
«The personal is political.»
Sees patriarchy as a system of power that runs through the economy, family, culture and sexuality, and must be overturned at the root rather than reformed.
It does not appear among the test results: it is a movement born from an issue the test does not measure.
In short
On the traditional scale, this ideology sits in the libertarian left camp. The clearest positions are on society: strongly towards “progress”; religion: strongly towards “secularism”; economy: strongly towards “equality”; method: strongly towards “rupture”. On technology it stays balanced. Among the other ideologies, the closest is democratic socialism (97%).
