The reason why nobody took women's rights away, was because it meant going to war with every country owned by (((them))) and we saw how that ended for Germany and Japan. It was easier to accept feminism, use their money and bend the knee, it was the only way to survive.
The only people who actually believed in communism, feminism and equality were the peasants and some of their puppet leaders. Those actually pulling the strings knew what it was truly about.
