So you prefer the tyranny of corporate/political elites to the tyranny of the majority? I'll take the tyranny of the majority over the tyranny of the minority any day - less people are oppressed that way.

"An anarchist who supports male domination contradicts the implicit critique of power which is the fundamental principle upon which all of anarchism is built. Sexist anarchists do exist, but only by virtue of directly contradicting their own anarchism. This contradiction leaves sexist anarchists open to criticism on their own terms. Anarchism must be feminist if it is to remain consistent" - L. Susan Brown
