Chronicling the ongoing intersectional struggle to liberate women — inclusively defined as the legacy kind and the transgenders — from The Patriarchy™, one microaggression at a time.
Of all of the blue cities that went full-on Cultural Revolution in 2020 after the white man (literal Satan) forced George Floyd to ingest a lethal dose of fentanyl, uber-progressive Seattle was arguably the craziest, potentially second fiddle only to Portland.

Among the many post-Floyd reforms was the effective decriminalization of prostitution.
Via Real Change (emphasis added):
A proposal to criminalize street-based sex work has sparked widespread concern among sex workers, anti-trafficking groups and their allies, who say it could harm vulnerable community members. The draft ordinance would undo legislation the Seattle City Council unanimously passed in 2020 that, over concerns of racial disproportionality in enforcement, repealed criminal penalties against sex workers…
Moore’s ordinance is one of several efforts by the new Seattle City Council to address public safety concerns…
During an Aug. 13 meeting of the Seattle City Council’s Public Safety Committee, Moore explained her bill was meant to disrupt the sex trade on Aurora Avenue North as a whole, which she saw as responsible for gun violence and other safety issues in the area. While sex workers would be criminalized under the ordinance, Moore said the intention is to go after “pimps,” people who manage sex workers, and “johns,” the clients of sex workers…
Moore’s legislation has raised many concerns over racially biased policing and the disproportionate impact on people of color, which was a driving factor for the decriminalization of prostitution loitering in 2020. According to Koyama, street-based sex workers in the Seattle area are predominantly poor women, with most being Black, Brown and/or trans. Koyama added that men of color are disproportionately involved in the sex trade as well.
A policy analysis by the city seems to echo concerns over racial disproportionality. On Aug. 13, The Stranger reported that Moore, in a rare move, ordered a revision to a policy memo produced by council central staff to remove language that discussed potential racist enforcement. One stricken paragraph mentioned that, prior to 2020, most of the sex buyers prosecuted in the SMC were immigrants or people of color.
This was the ideological fruit, as virtually all Social Justice™ machinations are, of intersectional feminism, which champions and reframes prostitution as “sex work,” smearing opponents of the practice on conventional (ironically) grounds of feminism as SWERFs (“sex worker exclusionary radical feminists”).
Via FEM (emphasis added):
Third-wave feminism in the U.S. gave rise to a movement and ideology increasingly centered on intersectionality, or the acceptance and incorporation of individuals of different races, gender identities, sexual orientations, economic backgrounds, and so on. In response to third-wave feminism materialized a variety of different schools of feminism, some of which merely have different focuses while others openly contradict each other.
Sex worker exclusionary radical feminism (SWERF) emerged as a response to the Third-wave’s more inclusive, intersectional approach to gender inequality, and is characterized primarily by discrimination against individuals engaged in sex work. These individuals include but are not limited to prostitutes, pornography models and actors, phone sex operators, erotic dancers, and web cam performers…
SWERFs take it upon themselves to tell other people what to do and what not to do with their bodies.
SWERFs also make sex workers the target of bullying and abuse through doxxing — the public release of someone’s private contact information and/or personal address — protesting and picketing against safe and legal sex work, and pushing for legislation that endangers the rights and safety of sex workers. SWERF is closely tied to TERF, or trans-exclusionary radical feminism, which promotes mistreatment and oppression of trans women and transgender people through similar means. Both SWERF and TERF constitute anti-feminist hate groups which in no way represent feminism as a whole. Their similarity lies mainly in the overlap of their support bases and the rhetoric they use to espouse their transphobic and whorephobic ideologies.
Anyway, the upshot is that Seattle is now besieged by street carnage as feral pimps shoot anything and everything — each other, their “hoes,” and really anyone who might get in the way of their bullets in rolling shootouts over turf.

Another progressive byproduct of the decriminalization of prostitution is that children are in the game now — particularly in the North Aurora district, the epicenter of the pimp shootouts.
Via Seattle Police Department (emphasis added):
This weekend, Seattle Police Department led a coalition of public safety partners and service providers in coordinated outreach efforts focused on survivor support, voluntary service connections, and accountability for those responsible for trafficking and exploitation.
The effort followed a commitment by Mayor Wilson, Chief Shon Barnes, City Attorney Erika Evans, and City Council members to address trafficking and exploitation along the North Aurora corridor through a coordinated approach that includes survivor-centered services, violence prevention, and targeted investigations into those responsible for coercion, violence, and financial exploitation…
During the effort, three minors were identified and connected with protective services. Ten adults were transported to access shelter, advocacy, and other support services.
As part of the effort to prevent the sexual exploitation of minors, investigators identified six individuals seeking to exploit children. Those individuals were arrested and charged with felony offenses. These efforts are part of Seattle’s ongoing commitment to advancing survivor safety, preventing exploitation, holding those responsible accountable, and promoting the well-being of the broader community.
In addition to an indictment of modern feminism, the pimp takeover also serves, in my view, as a microcosm of the essential problem with libertarianism.
In theory, maximum liberty is great.
In practice, the United States and the West at large are inundated with savage berserkers with Third World lineages who make a libertarian society and basic human decency mutually exclusive.
Total liberty only works if the beneficiaries have a sense of morality.
