Exploiting Feminism for Profit
"Neoliberal capitalism, which is built on the disenfranchisement of women and people of colour, is attempting to contain radical discourse within its walls. In doing so it neutralises the potential for system change. "
Junk Food Journalism: Why Annabel Crabb’s Kitchen Cabinet Is Toxic
"This is certainly the case in Indigenous affairs, where solutions that are more palatable to white journalists are privileged over the solutions put forward by Aboriginal people themselves. The black voices of those who tell white people what they want to hear are accepted by non-Indigenous journalists because it mirrors their own experiences. "

Empire’s “Mimic Men”
"Also, as Pas points out under the heading of “security feminism,” the fetishizing of oppressed women is used as an opportune asset to ideologically advance the cause of imperialist intervention: “the war becomes about her. In this process the host country is also feminized and the American heterosexual pursuit becomes about gallantly ‘saving’ the Muslim woman from Islam."

United Nations Covers Up Child Rape in Africa and the Buying of Sex in Haiti
With the military industrial complex and the United Nations up to its neck in charges of rape and involvement in the trafficking of women and underage girls, no wonder they are helping the key NGOs of George Soros in an attempt to push through decriminalization of prostitution (rather than the Nordic model) that will protect men first and foremost (not to mention the lucrative opportunities for transnational corporations that will open up).

Real Men Don’t Prostitute Women
"In sheer numbers, it is the poor brown women of the world who pay with bruises, humiliation and deaths for this ignorant and hideous decision that has brought Amnesty International so low." -- Lee Lakeman, Canadian feminist
Playboy Feminism™: how the gentleman’s porn rag co-opted the women’s movement
"In an era that ascribes “empowerment” to everything from breast implants to nude selfies to pole-dancing classes, and when the hottest conversation of 2014 was Beyonce’s feminism, it only makes sense that the magazine would double-down on their efforts to capitalize on the movement."

Pornography, Prostitution & Trafficking
"Melissa Farley of Prostitution Research and Education discusses the public health crisis of pornography, in particular the human trafficking that makes prostitution profitable. Amnesty International is challenged by prostitution survivors to end its support for legalizing these crimes against humanity."
For All Those Who Were Indian In A Former Life
"Unfortunately, many white feminists do not want to take this time in their quest for instant spirituality. Profit-making often gets in the way of true sisterhood. However, white feminists should know that as long as they take part in Indian spiritual abuse, either by being consumers of it or by refusing to take a stand on it, Indian women will consider white "feminists" to be nothing more than agents in the genocide of their people."

Human Rights vs. Right Based Fishing: The Ideological Battleground in Siem Reap
"While many of the ‘usual suspects’ spoke openly about the need for private property, ITQs and similar terms in relation to fisheries governance, some adapted the language and thereby masked their underlying belief in private property as the one and only solution. This way of adapting the language is used to strategically persuade others – including fisher movements across the world... "
