My personal "favourite" comment

Just wanted to add, its ok to mourn the loss of a strong woman, even if the firm she represented and the work she did was wrong in so many ways. Rarely is any single person all good or all bad. She was a bad ass during WWII, doing work “girls” didn’t do up till then. She led a very disciplined life and worked tirelessly at her role. Unfortunately, the work she did, and so much of what she represented was painfully awful. Just goes to remind us that being a strong female is not enough if the way you live causes harm. My wish is that in her next go round at life she learns to take her strength and apply it for the good of other people.

Sitting at +133 upvotes lmao such revolutionaries on there.

    Yeah women's labour was pretty badly exploited in the factories and industry during WW2 while most of the men went to fight if my history is correct

      Marginalized people are used to offset the boom bust cycle. If you hire marginalized people during a boom and its accompanying labor shortage, you can lay them off just as easily when the crash hits. So you essentially create a tiered system when some people always have consistent work while others can’t seem to keep work. These people are literally celebrating the proletarianization of women
