"For the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house." - Audre Lorde

Lorde asked, “What does it mean when the tools of a racist patriarchy are used to examine the fruits of that same patriarchy?” And she responded, “It means that only the most narrow perimeters of change are possible and allowable.”

Replace "patriarchy" with "oligarchy" and the same wisdom rings true.
