The cryptocurrency industry is counting on the federal courts to survive a sweeping enforcement crusade by Wall Street’s top regulator.

Intersectionality as a concept started by Crenshaw. She noticed a court case where a black woman sued a factory for not giving her a secretary job du to racism. The judge said that it could not be due to racism since the factory had employees that were black, and dismissed the case or ruled against it. Crenshaw spotted that the judge had not taken into consideration that all black employees were male working in the production line and all the secretary positions were taken by white females, so the judicial system can be ineffective when people are found in the intersection of different inequalities/etc, which by themselves are addressed. Or supposed to be addressed, but that's another topic.

For the case in the article I think this is an analysis tool that could help us understand both sides. Of course with more info than the ones provided here.

Hope this was clear enough?

@ricdeh and @Luvs2Spuj, it looks like you are both correct since:

1978: Nona Gaprindashvili became the first female Grandmaster

Reasons for this are complicated and largely unknown

Really?
Well, systemic sexism is complicated, no doubt. You have to decide tho. Complicated or unknown? Cause it can't be both.

Personally, I both loved and hated the idea at first. The more I think about it, the more I find it valuable in some way.

Thanks you for saying so and spending time thinking about this. The way I see things, the point here is to take a glance at how systemic sexism works through an art exhibit. That is, if you dare.

Other examples that would illustrate what I mean in relation to systemic sexism, would be:

• It is not sexism if a dude is not allowed in a lesbian bar. They are a minority group, and just want to do their thing.
• It is sexism when a woman is refused to apply for a grandmaster chess tournament because of tradition/culture/etc. ~~We live in a world that women are still not allowed participate in these tournaments.~~

[edit: the strikethrough, cause apparently it's not the case. There are women tournaments (only for women) and open ones (open to all). I think the example still stands, as an illustration to what I meant]

I don't trust the judicial system to handle systemic racism. Also, I can't say I fully understand this case. Intersectionality is a great analysis tool to use in situations like this, no matter what the outcome of the trial will be.

If two people agree to a debate, but one of them participates in bad faith

That part was enough for me. Under these circumstances, not even a conversation can take place let alone a debate. Try to protect yourself from toxic people by not wasting your time with them. I know it's easier said than done cause I'm trying to recover from a similar situation.
