I would especially be interested in zines&distros about this:
Between protests, a number of radical feminist groups throughout the US and Canada have formed Women’s Health Collectives, to address the needs of women. Some of these collectives teach female anatomy in empowering, positive ways, showing women how to give themselves gynecological exams, how to experience menstruation comfortably, and how to practice safe methods of birth control. The patriarchal Western medical establishment is generally ignorant of women’s health to the point of being degrading and harmful. An anti-establishment, do-it-yourself approach allows marginalized people to subvert a neglectful system by organizing to meet their own needs.

Are they trying to imply that MLs all have the knowledge required to make medicine and that instead of distributing this knowledge to their beloved working class they're hoarding it for themselves in order to talk shit on the internet?
Or is this yet another example of MLs not knowing what the fuck they're talking about and attributing their own failings onto others?
Because I gotta say, you'd think that giving this knowledge to the impoverished, the struggling, and/or the sick would further ingratiate their target to their ideology, but I guess MLs are like Christians in many ways, including the fact that they themselves are the best deterrent to increasing their numbers.

they're implying they'll perpetuate capitalism so nothing will change substantially except now they'll be in power

Apologies for the ableism in the title.
I was unaware. That was my bad. Thx for whoever fixed it to changing it to [ableism removed].
I’d make the title better but I can’t atm as I’m on mobile.
EDIT: Seems like I can't.
