The Feminist Illusion: From "Liberation" to Wage Slavery, By Mrs. Vera West

The women's liberation movement promised emancipation, a world where women could stand as equals, free from the shackles of domestic confinement. Yet, as the Infowars article "The Feminist Slave System Revealed!" suggests, drawing on Aldous Huxley's Brave New World, the revolution has been co-opted, its supposed noble ideals twisted into a tool of control. Far from delivering true freedom, feminism has, for many women, traded one form of servitude for another: equality not in dignity but in wage slavery, with the added burden of balancing motherhood and domestic life. The elite's sleight of hand has turned liberation into a gilded cage, where women, like men, are cogs in a corporate machine, their individuality eroded under the guise of progress.

In the 1960s and 70s, feminism's rallying cry was equality, equal pay, equal opportunities, equal rights. Women fought for access to careers, education, and political power, breaking barriers that confined them to the home. But the Infowars piece, invoking Huxley's dystopia, argues that this fight was hijacked. In Brave New World, the World State uses feminism's language to strip women l of agency, conditioning them into "docile pleasure-seeking cogs," who trade autonomy for hedonistic distractions. Similarly, modern feminism has been absorbed into a system that equates liberation with economic utility, not human dignity.

The numbers tell a stark story. By 2025, 60% of U.S. women are in the workforce, up from 37% in 1960, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics. More damning, the average woman works 40-50 hours a week while shouldering 70% of childcare and household duties, according to a 2023 Pew Research study. The liberation promised, freedom to thrive as individuals, has morphed into a grind where women are "equal" to men in their servitude to corporate demands, with the added weight of parenting and homemaking. This isn't emancipation; it's exhaustion.

The Infowars article points to Huxley's hatcheries, which erase maternal bonds and promote promiscuity to ensure compliance. In our world, the parallel is subtler but no less insidious. The corporate state doesn't need test-tube babies, it has economic pressures that push women into the workforce, while devaluing the family. Tax structures, rising housing costs (up 20-30% since 2022 in major U.S. cities), and stagnant wages (real median income up only 20% since 1975) force dual-income households as a norm. A 2024 study found 65% of mothers work full-time out of necessity, not choice, with 40% reporting burnout from juggling jobs and childcare.

This system, cloaked in feminist rhetoric, undermines the family unit Huxley warned about. Women are told they can "have it all," career, motherhood, fulfillment, but the reality is a treadmill of endless demands. Maternity leave in the U.S. averages a paltry 12 weeks, unpaid for most, compared to 52 weeks in many European nations. Childcare costs devour 20-30% of income for working mothers, per 2023 data. The state and corporations offer no Soma, but they dangle promotions and "empowerment" seminars, while families fracture under the strain. The maternal bond, once sacred, is squeezed into stolen moments between Zoom calls and day-care pickups.

The Infowars piece nails the elite's tactic: "Co-opt a movement's ideals to enslave the very souls it once aimed to free." Feminism's call for equality has been repurposed to serve a system that values productivity over people. Women, like men, are now wage slaves, tethered to 9-to-5 (or 9-to-9) jobs to afford rent in a market where 75% of millennials can't buy homes. The elite, corporate boards, policy wonks, and cultural gatekeepers, celebrate women's "empowerment" while ignoring the toll. A 2022 survey found 55% of working mothers feel they've sacrificed personal fulfillment for economic survival, a sentiment echoed in the emptiness of Huxley's pleasure-driven dystopia.

This betrayal isn't accidental.Old-money foundations and the administrative state fuel ideologies that keep the masses compliant. Feminism, once a rebellion against patriarchy, now serves a new master: a system that profits from overworked, underpaid women who lack the time or energy to question it. The 2024 Journal of Psychiatric Research study, showing women post-abortion, face double the risk of mental health hospitalisations, underscores the cost of a culture that prioritises "choice" over holistic support. Women are free to work, free to choose, but not free to thrive.

From a Christian perspective, this is a perversion of God's design. Scripture honours women as co-heirs of grace (1 Peter 3:7), created for dignity, not drudgery. The Proverbs 31 woman is industrious, but her work serves her family and community, not a faceless corporation. True emancipation lies not in economic equality with men's wage slavery, but in restoring the family as the heart of society, where mothers and fathers are supported, not exploited. Jesus' call to "come to me, all you who are weary" (Matthew 11:28), speaks to women crushed by the dual burdens of work and childcare, offering rest in a purpose higher than profit.

The women's liberation movement didn't deliver the promised land. It broke chains, yes, but for most women, it forged new ones, golden handcuffs of wage slavery and impossible expectations. The elite's cunning has turned feminism into a tool of control, not freedom, leaving women equal in exhaustion, not emancipation. The path forward requires rejecting this hollow "liberation" and rebuilding a culture that values women not as cogs in the globalist machine but as souls, created, loved, and called to true freedom.
