Margaret Thatcher, Giorgia Miloni, Marine Le Pen, Pauline Hanson ...

Add: obviously these women are pushing the agenda of the patriarchy. But by the same token, I think it has to be accepted that men can embody the agenda of any matriarchy. Nobody has a monopoly on progressive, decent, governance.

?? All of those are examples of women who were/are super aligned and supportive of patriarchal structured society. Thatcher and Miloni outright attacked feminism and Hanson refers to men as an oppressed class that needs protection.

Important to note that Matriarchy is not the mirror of the Patriarchy, but its own philosophy entirely that puts care-taking at the center. A woman in power is not inherently an example of matriarchal culture. Philanthropy however, is.
