I saw that tag, read all the articles linked in that post, and the only connection I saw to why Bob Jones Jr. would even be tagged in that post is that the author of the post you linked to mentioned him in a list of "Christian fundamentalists." That is not at all the same thing as being connected with the patriarchy movement or Vision Forum. There are lots of fundamentalists, including Bob Jones Jr., who would vehemently disagree with many or most of Vision Forum's teachings.

I got that from the Wiki Article:
But I guess that Quiverfull does not equal Patriarchy.

Correct. Quiverfull does not equal Patriarchy any more than homeschooling, being a SAHM, or any of the other teachings that VF turns into moral absolutes and include in their teachings do in themselves equal Patriachy.
For example, Vision Forum teaches that everyone should homeschool, but there are
many homeschoolers that do not follow VF philosophies or agree with their teachings. So it would probably be accurate to say that all VF followers are homeschoolers, but would be wildly inaccurate to say or assume that all homeschoolers are VF followers.
There are also many people who don't use birth control but do not at all fit in or agree with all of the other ideas and teachings many associate with the Quiverfull movement.
I think it's extremely important to make sure there is really good, solid evidence before putting names out there as being connected with VF.
