Is surprisingly right wing, talk about horseshoe theory…

Once upon a time, women wanted to be like men. It was unfair that women had to raise children, and had a biological clock, and a 60 year old granpa is smashing some 19 year old slut and what not. Woman’s inability to work long hours in a factory was seen as a bad thing by socialist and capitalists alike. There is actually a strain of thought called. Xenofeminism that promotes technological solutions to gender relations. Transhumanism should undo patriarchy.

Back in the days, I recall listening.to some MGTOW podcaster, who advocated for artificial wombs, as it would remove the need for women in reproduction. I have also recently read about a Harvard researcher that said artificial wombs would usher in a communist utopia because it would remove family and thus property relations. (Don’t know if the second is true) But not all women like this technological upgrade to their biological predicament.

As we reported in January, artificial reproduction technology, including artificial wombs, is intended to replace natural childbirth, creating a world without mothers where a baby is just another profitable product that has to be purchased from the usual suspects. 

In a bid to alert the public in Italy as to what is being planned, campaigners targeted the event on Saturday May 20. 

Resistenze al nanomondo and FINAARGIT – International Feminist Network Against All Artificial Reproduction, Gender Ideology and Transhumanism – were joined by the Popular Assembly Resisting Transhumanism of Bergamo in organizing a “sit-in” protest.

Their protest was also supported by feminists from Genoa and Milan, by a Catholic network drawing support from various cities in Italy and by a Marxist group from Milan which also opposed the “Green Pass” (vaccine passport). 

Two other separate protests were held at the same time at other entrances to the fair, the first by the feminists of RADFEM and Inviolability Network and the second by mainstream right-wing political parties the Brothers of Italy and the League.

Welcome to the postmodern world, where Marxists; Radical Feminists, and Catholics are on the same boat.

I personally would not oppose a technology like artificial womb and gene editing. I am personally a techno pessimist. Read The Machine Stops. And in my opinion a society dependent on the artificial womb would be very fragile. It would be dependent on a machine, high technology. This requires maintenance, and is prone to malfunction and sabotage. If the machine stops, the colony is fucked.

I wonder where these feminists were 30 years ago. Didn’t they always view the female predicament as unfair? Why do they suddenly want to be women and mothers?
