I don't understand why there are so many people who consider themselves "Marxist feminists", but at the same time are distracted by astrology.

The origin of feminism is working class, and as a working class movement, it is materialist. I don't know if they at least know what dialectical materialism is, since they don't see such an abysmal contradiction between astrology (pseudoscience) and feminism (materialism).

They remind me of the liberal “feminist” Gloria Steinem.

And the same with some anarchists.

What do you think about it?

    The most useful thing about being familiar with the zodiac is that if you don't live in a city and can see the sky at night, it functions as calendar, clock, and compass.

      I agree, and yet it is materialist. Observe and study natural phenomena and astronomical bodies to determine time and develop a calendar to organize as a civilization.
