Capitalism is the main problem we don't know when to put progress before profit.

[davidpar]

Postmodern, dystopian, intersectional cancer, all in one ted talk.

It boggles my mind how some people's brains think.

[summondadrummin]

All these isms stem from percieving and acting as if we are separate....this misperception then gets built into institutional behaviors and we get a fragmented world with seeming insurmountable problems.

[jeromefalasca]

Everybody knows you talking truth but many want to forget our heritage, so the attacks are going to rain down on you.
Keep strong and keep telling truth.

[allanmenard]

She forgot the fact that Capitalism is a major part of Colonialism.

The work of Margarita Oztolaza Bey was the first time I heard about the relationship between these three 'isms. It has been a foundational idea in how I interpret the socio-political issues of my time.

[nicholashughes]

Are there many people who hold or share these beliefs and opinions in the US and the West?

[RickL-wqjs]

[LordPist]

What is the definition of "patriarchy"?

[anthonysiebenthaler]

Tic tac toe

Where would most people be if none of those things happened?
people like her do not understand that they are alive during a period of history where even people like her can live easily and have 'a platform' rather than spending all day, every day grubbing for food.

[annalenageisler]

Very eye-opening talk! Thanks for the good work and the courage to speak up publicly. I will inform more on this.
An I don't see any of the haters in the comments back up their opinions with proof or taking a stance publicly. It's just too damn easy to criticize others!

"Former colonized countries emit the least amount of carbon dioxide" ... The USA is a formerly colonized country, and accounts for the 2nd highest amount of co2 emissions. I guess she chose to ignore this fact because it didn't gel with her narrative?
