    gender forms its own base/superstructure that is informed by the base/superstructure of society at large. the base/superstructure of labor, gender, race, nationality, ability etc. are all informed by the capital mode of production that forms the base of society. women are part of the revolutionary class, the authors arent excluding them

      It seems like the authors directly contradict that. There’s the section I quoted, but they also just don’t talk about anything that women will do as a gender class to tear down the gender class system. Some antifeminist communists pay lip service to feminism by saying “of course we’re feminist, women are part of the revolutionary proletariat”. As you pointed out, the “totality” stuff is pretty tacked on and the bulk of the specifics are about how gender accelerationism is going to bring about gender abolition.
