The point of the story is that Gilead is this little cult somewhere out in the countryside. Cults aren't interested in anything like truth except for their own power. Notice that even most men aren't benefiting from the system? It's all about the one percent of men who get to have and enjoy everything. The Handmaid's Tale isn't really about feminism. It's really about cults.
