      It has been to different extents at different times.

      Right now we are at a 70-year peak. In the US, anyway.

      Surely at least back when women couldn’t vote and were expected to always obey their father/husband, there was patriarchy. Also ultra rich vs the rest, but also patriarchy.

        Yeah and I feel it was pushed by the ultra rich. The ultra rich were pretty much all men and controlled everything including the papers that most read back then. Ultra rich see any progress as an attack on their wealth
