It seems that these are processes by which women, in the near future, will take over the dominant position from men, first in the economic sphere, and then in the family and society. The last bastion of male supremacy – political power, is defended by all means. But the moon returns, hence the drama
For us little men who grew up in analog prehistory, patriarchy, whether we liked it or not, was somehow taken for granted. There was a little, here and there in the literature and in the more enlightened salons of sporadic whining about the position of women, but somehow it was tacitly understood that they have the right to vote, in most countries they are no longer sold in the markets, they are allowed to study, laugh and get a job , for a lower salary, but still, here, even Milka Planinc is the prime minister, so everything is hunky-dory. And that something privileged that you get by being born with different chromosomes is not exactly to be thrown away, it must be admitted.
The women in our lives were ok, not exactly a necessary evil as for some, but in a way - ok. There were also quite a few advantages to having them around. I, on the other hand, belonged to those silks who thought that maybe there is still some room for some more women's rights and that the extent to which they are equal is not exactly equal and that it could, even had to, be even more equal. This led me so far that I realized at one point that I belong to that specifically twisted and at that time not so few group of muscadians who not only despise women and the feminine principle, but also tend to idealize them a little, and this is the approach that life unfailingly punishes, most often with a club on the head. So, more natural with knots - absolute respect, no idealization.
GREAT RAM SHIRI PATRIARCHATE
And when we brushed up a little on esotericism back then, Madame Blavacka and her friends revealed to us that long ago time when the great Mothers, other women and warriors by God, were so wrapped up and in charge that even the great Ram couldn't do anything to them, so he had to collect his entire male cult, all his followers and what they had, and under the sign of Aries they shoot from the north of Europe, the mythical Hyperborea, all the way to India to settle there and restore order based on the male principle and according to the male will. And that story of his with the patriarchy proved to be so successful that it not only spread and was wonderfully received throughout the world, overcame the great matriarchs and their power of the Moon and in the name of the Sun Apollo lasted for millennia, until recently, but slowly imposed itself as more successful, and it seemed long, and like the only possible order.
And then the Great Change happened. Thanks to incredible technological discoveries, a completely new economy has emerged in recent decades in which men no longer have the advantages they had for six thousand years. Physical strength in manual jobs, thanks to mechanization, plays a smaller and smaller role, in the service sector women have long dominated, and they also more successfully perform better paid management jobs. More jobs, more money, more influence. Practically everywhere in the world, and especially in its more developed, western part, the number of women who start their own businesses is growing, the number of highly educated women is growing, and the number of women in the highest positions within large companies is growing. At the same time, the number of women raising children on their own is on the rise, and for a large part of them, this is the result of a well-thought-out decision not to start a classic family, rather than the result of circumstances.
Suppression of men
On the public stage, in culture and media, the primacy of men is less and less visible, even literally. Of course, these processes do not take place overnight, but the dominant position of men in society and private life is being crowned with surprising speed, especially if we look at them in a historical context. Processes, not men. Power inevitably passes to the other side and battalions of nerds and snots, immature and immature men with the ego of Marlon Brando and the abilities of Borivoj Šurdilović, scared-to-death men who are very screwed up in front of the weak and powerless, thugs and thugs driven crazy by jealousy and paranoia, dispossessed boys raised as if they were the heirs to the throne, to whom she jumped at every moment family, and everyone without polish, without charm, without talent, without introspection, without empathy, closed themselves in packs with others similar to themselves. And they, just like all fascists of other kinds, had to somehow justify their own failures and disagreements in life and find a concrete enemy to accuse him of.
In the absence of love, except for the most tender love towards itself, they needed at least something, at least an object of hatred as a substitute. That's what the kids would say - mast. And so, it's kind of convenient to hate what's first at hand. Their reactions to the coming matriarchy are still disorganized and mostly emotional, but in America, for example, the appearance of the Magian male cult and its leader Donald Trump has given this part of the male population an opportunity to organize and try to resist. Even armed. And as we saw the other day, they are successfully resisting. For now.
Of course, not all men are as I described them above, perhaps too harshly. The majority really didn't, but they too came under fire from a very loud and angry minority and were branded, directly or tacitly, as traitors to their race. And don't accidentally think that I have forgotten those lessons in my head and that I am now going to give in and start idealizing women again. No, not at all. They are simply, on average, of course, more capable and better equipped for life in the 21st century. They are more successful, more self-confident, and therefore more fun. But they pay a price for that, because nothing in this world is free. Many of them have made the terrible mistake of trying to adopt some of the worst male traits and behaviors, believing that such a sacrifice of their own nature will make it easier for them to break into the positions they want. Others took on burdens and responsibilities that anyone, regardless of gender, could hardly carry alone. And many simply feel unbearably lonely in these new circumstances.
Organized movements that fought for women's rights appeared almost two hundred years ago and indeed, over time, in a painfully slow process, they gained the right to own property, the right to education, the right to work and finally, the right to vote. The latest such was, of course, MeToo, a movement to combat sexual violence against women. But the changes we are talking about here go beyond efforts to make women take an equal position with men. It seems that these are processes by which women, in the near future, will take over the dominant position from men, first in the economic sphere, and then in the family and society. And we, if we do even a superficial one cost-benefits analysis, we must support such a transition with all our might.

PRICE QUESTION
The male principle and way dominated for centuries and produced obvious results in the end. The human race has never lived better, at least on average. The moment we live in is, by all measurable criteria, by far the best in history. This may seem counterintuitive to some, but it is an easily proven fact. Never before have people with less invested work been able to afford the quality of life they can today. Basic human rights, with all exceptions, have never been better protected. Education, culture and information have never been more accessible. But again we come to the question of price. And humanity pays for it through great social stratification, a threatening ecological cataclysm and again through an almost universal feeling of loneliness and essential isolation from its environment. And these are the fields where the return of the power of the feminine principle, the return of the Moon, under which the ancient matriarchy ruled its community, could be healing.
The problem of alienation was supposed to be solved by the traditional religions, with their church organizations, and they failed miserably at that task. By their very nature, they do not want free individuals united in a dynamic community, but obedient masses that obey authority. The Christian church goes so far as to call its believers a flock. Islam has imperial and political ambitions, Hinduism commercial and political, and Christianity is occupied with business deals and countless, mostly sexual, scandals of its clergy. Steeped in bare materialism and the struggle for worldly power, corporate religions are going down in history, thank God. Again, a little counterintuitive, but the number of members of these religions has been in constant decline for decades. The bearers of new cults and spiritual schools, which take their place, and for which we are ready, I among the first, sometimes even to make fun of them, are precisely women. New techniques and teachings, often stemming from the past new age of the movement, partially based on the old schools of the East and their methods of self-healing, meditation, holistic approach to medicine and life, are rapidly becoming the basis of a new religious worldview.
It is an approach that is profoundly anti-theistic, that denies the need for any deity, and therefore an organized church, thank God, again. The path to development and progress is personal, based on one's own actions and not mediated by church structures. At the same time, it represents a return to the original religious practices created during the early matriarchies. From there, issues of ecology, our relationship with the Earth and nature come into the spotlight, but this time not only as topics on which a few organizations held a monopoly for a long time, often in mutual conflicts over sources of funding and influence, but as part of the everyday life of an individual, as a very important part of his value system and personality. Such a new approach inevitably led to a questioning of our own nature, biological and sexual, gender issues and issues of identity as human beings. As I said, the bearers of all these new ideas are women. Especially young women. The future has begun in a big way.
And in order to solve the problem of the third price that we pay for the achieved progress - excessive social differences and inequality, it will be necessary to bring about changes in the sphere of politics, to a new way of political thinking that will abandon the old, classical ideological matrices and look for answers to the dilemmas of society in the process the most turbulent changes that humanity has ever gone through. The search for social consensus through the awakening of solidarity and empathy, and not imposed through state coercion, seems a bit like a utopian idea, but one gets the impression that there is no other way. And the alternative - the continuation of endless conflicts within and between states - is fast approaching even apocalyptic scenarios. It seems that, and this opinion is shared by many sociologists and political scientists, it remains for women to take a leading role in political structures, after rare historical precedents.
And that is happening, but as expected more difficult and slower than in other areas. The last bastion of male supremacy – political power, is defended by all means. And the passion and panic with which the little men and the more masculine women in the moral sense defended the patriarchy in this and the 2016 American elections are shocking and horrifying at the same time. It was male last stand for a thing already lost. The moon returns, they know it too, that's where all the drama comes from.
