Rich men created the system. They’re doing absolutely fine. Patriarchy has always been about class, fundamentally.
Yep, which is a reason why 'patriarchy' is often a poor term for systems of power. The elites are elevated because they are wealthy, to a far greater extent than being elevated because they are male. Telling working class and impoverished men that the system is designed to benefit them is only going to push them towards right-wing populists like Trump who are selling fake solutions to their problems.
