@Daojoan And every time they were forced to pay women equal wages they did it by lowering men's.

@Daojoan@mastodon.social I think it was more capitalists than conservatives, but there is a lot of overlap.

@Daojoan Conservatives want their cake and eat it too. They want the 1950s back when there was post-war wealth, and the whole "traditional" values bullshit. I think that's part of the reason why Trump keeps trying to pick fights and start a world war, because they do tend to generate a lot of wealth....if trickle down economics actually worked.

@Daojoan Blaming women for working, sure. Social conservatives definitely have a false nostalgia for a perfect 1950's that never existed. Working class women in particular have always kept working. My grandma did and that was decades before Leave It to Beaver.
But you seem to be suggesting that conservatives are the ones responsible for normalizing middle class women staying in the workplace after marriage, and unilaterally so. That doesn't ring true for me at all.

@Daojoan economic right: outsourcing is a cash machine
Cultural right: cut welfare, crack down on homelessnessEconomic right: brings in cheap workers on various visas
Cultural right: stirs anti immigrant sentimentEconomic right: all in on AI
Cultural right: deus vult, save our beloved culture from all this woke (also trans).One vote, two boots, all over the world. They're that predictable, what's disappointing is how often we fall for it.

Imagine a world where both women and men were only required to work 20 hrs a week in order to live comfortably. You know, like the industrialisation and automation once promised…

2 incomes?
More like needing 3 full time jobs now just to keep the bills at bay. -
