​@Dinesh D'Souza , right-wing political commentator and felon, says that America is 'too soft' to stay in Afghanistan due to liberal 'effeminization' of its culture and politics. D'Souza rejects Biden's defense of his decision to pull American troops out and claims that military officials have been too busy thinking about putting troops in high heels and getting transgender surgeries than impeding the Taliban. The Majority Report crew discusses how Right-wing chicken hawks like D'Souza will endlessly advocate for more and more war. We stream our live show every day at 12 PM ET.

Author Kyla Schuller breaks down the problems with white feminism in her book, The Trouble with White Women: A Counterhistory of Feminism.

What about the women in Afghanistan? and that is another I think a great manifestation of this dynamic or not great but a great example of the dynamic that you're describing. Schuller: Absolutely and especially when it comes to women in the middle east that have been a major threat actually for 130-40 years that it is the goal of white women to help save women from supposedly less civilized societies. The theorist of Gayatri Spivak put it really well in the 1980s.
