The BBC, unsurprisingly, ignored that El-Saadawi was anti-capitalist and belonged to the “historical socialist-feminists,” (her own words).
Wikipedia admin deleted my edit when I added with a source that El-Saadawi was anti-capitalist and socialist. I guess they want her to fit in the neoliberal feminism.
But, “after the military take-over, El Saadawi began to defend the regime of the former military chief and current president Abdul Fatah al-Sisi and his human rights violations, many of her former comrades-in-arms felt compelled to break with her. El Saadawi accused the Western media of running a smear campaign against Sisi.”
