In the absence of a closer association between Daly and Dworkin, conflating their positions is like conflating Stephen J. Gould and Steven Pinker because they both claim to apply the theory of evolution.
As I and Oligopsony have said, Daly can go piss off. Dworkin’s quote is just articulating her definition of patriarchy. If you think we aren’t living in that society, her definition is not particularly interesting. But it isn’t like there’s no evidence that she’s somewhat accurately describing our current society.
