The spirit of the patriarch... What truly determines force against women?

Feminists say that "patriarchate" is liable for force against women. The problem is that the patriarchate... is gone. Prof. Roberto de Mattei writes about this

Explanation: There has been an intense debate in Italy over force against women over the phenomenon of alleged feminicide. The media publicizes cases of murders on women by both native Italians and immigrants. The dominant communicative is that force is liable for the "patriarchate". Prof. Roberto de Mattei has long argued that this is not true, as the patriarch simply no longer exists.

"The Spirit of the Patriarchate" is the title of an editorial for the November 24 diary Il Messaggero, written by sociologist Luca Ricolfi. Ricolfi writes:

“Everyone who denies the existence of a patriarchy looks astounded, as if he dared to deny the Holocaust. The reason is simple: we have been so powerfully put into our head that force against a female is closely linked to the patriarch, that negating the existence of a patriarchy in the opinion of many is negating the existence of force against women. However, if we abandon for a minute the ideological zeal of the believers in the patriarchy and let sober command, we will see good arguments for the thesis about the non-existence of the patriarchy. There are many, and they are truly strong.

The most crucial of these is that apart from respective circumstantial enclaves [...] in Western societies, the characteristic features of patriarchal societies have disappeared almost entirely. the despotic authority of the head of the family, arranged marriages, the submission of children (even sons) to parental power, and more mostly the primacy of obligations over rights in almost all area of social life (work, family, war). This process lasted for centuries, but had 2 basic reasons: an increase in the number of love marriages in the 18th and 19th centuries, that is, the romanticist Age, and libertarian and anti-authoritarian revolutions of students and women in the 1960s and 1970s. The fundamental aspect of these processes is the removal of the father's character, and more mostly of the full authority, which Alexander Mitscherlich rapidly announced in his book "A Society Without Fathers" published in German in 1963. There is no uncertainty about this among sociologists, social psychologists and psychoanalysts."

At this point prof. Ricolfi asks the apparent question: how can 1 talk of a patriarchal society erstwhile the father's character has disappeared not only in the family, but in society at all?

The answer is, "The hypothesis we should seriously consider is that the force suffered by women is the consequence – contrary to intuition and paradoxically – of the failure of the patriarch." There are more and more voices that point to the fact that it is the large increase in freedom and autonomy of women over the last 50 years, coupled with increasing individualism, consumerism and the overgrowth of rights – all the typical features of our times – that have made the deprived men increasingly aggressive, insecure, fragile, possessive and incapable to bear the slightest defeat or accept average rejection. In short, today's muck would besides be a kind of reaction to the achievements of women to whom men were not ready, nor would they want to give up. Men's force would not be a sign of the endurance of the patriarchate, but of his agony and the disorder that results from it." It is so not amazing in what Ricolfi calls the "Norse Paradox", or "the fact – amazing at first sight – that force against women, from rape to the killing of women, is greater in the most civilized countries (such as the Nordic countries) and that a country like Italy, where the sex gap is inactive comparatively large, is 1 of the least dangerous on the European continent".

In this way, the sociologist confirms what I wrote on RadioRomaLibera a year ago, 2 December 2023 (https://www.radioromalibera). org/perché-dobbiamo-turnare-al-patriarcato/), commenting on the deep identity crisis that followed the demolition of the social model of the patriarchate: “The alleged feminicide is not the consequence of an old patriarchal culture, but of a fresh anti-patriarchal culture that confuses ideas, weakens feelings, destabilizes the psyche, deprived of the natural support that the household has offered since birth, with its safety points, fatherly and motherly. Man is alone with his nightmares, his fears, his anxiety, on the edge of the abyss: the abyss of emptiness into which he falls erstwhile he renounces being what he is, erstwhile he abandons his own immutable and enduring nature of man, woman, father, mother, child."

“And while everyone is talking about feminicide,” I added, “no 1 is talking about much more widespread crime: infanticide, committed all day in Italy, Europe and the planet by fathers and mothers who commit the most utmost force against their innocent kid before it even sees the light of day.”

Ricolfi's article was inspired by the global Day Against force Against Women, celebrated annually on 25 November. A national demonstration against force against women was held the day before in Rome, during which feminist slogans were chanted, including "The Disarmament of the Patriarchate", and a photograph of the Education Minister Giuseppe Valditar was burned. The Minister exposed himself to the message during the presentation in the Chamber of Deputies of the Foundation dedicated to Giulia Cecchettin that the patriarchate in Italy no longer exists, and "the emergence in sexual force is besides linked to forms of marginalisation and deviation in any way derived from illegal immigration".

When asked to comment on these statements on the Piazzapulita program on the La7 channel, prof. Ricolfi reiterated that the patriarch, who disappeared from Western society, now exists only in immigrant families: We add: as a grotesque and brutal muslim caricature of the Christian and Western model of the patriarchate. alternatively than the patriarch, it would be more appropriate to talk about forms of muslim machism, as chaotic as Western feminism. We thank Minister Valditar and prof. Ricolf for breaking the collusion of political correctness by reminding the truth, which is apparent to anyone who wants to see it.
