#EndFathersDay.

Obviously satire. with stuff like:
because spousal rape, domestic violence, child abuse, and masculinity aren't things to be celebrated #YesAllWomen #EndFathersDay
And:
Fathers Day should be renamed to Semen Day, because that's what men contribute to families. #EndFathersDay
But it led to some pretty funny Iowahawk spoofing, like:

Da Hawk be WRONG! I like pleated Dockers.

Good satire is based in reality.

Beth said...

Oh, no. These women are completely serious in their hatred of men and the so-called "rape culture". They wouldn't recognize satire if it bit them in the ass.

End Father's Day?!? That's BS -- I get a free trip to Ted Drew's.

Obvious satire + 5 years of "progressive" social change = new reality.

Maybe 2-3 years on certain liberal campuses....

Fathers' Day should be moved to the first Monday in December.

Nine months before Labor Day.

I love the harridans and scolds who find it bizarre that anybody could possibly think that any of it was sincere.

If your movement is beyond parody, then maybe you should think about that.

Actually not satire, but a cadre of misandrists on Twitter. The original one that kicked it off has had her account removed or suspended.

Actions have consequences halfwits!

Beth - this is the byproduct of 25 years of "womyns studies". I shudder to think of what it means to be a young man in university attending any "social science" class. Men should have the option of taking only math/science courses.

Not all trolling, some are into it.

A little off topic, but the woman (Anna Jarvis) who was most responsible for creating Mother's Day in the U.S. spent most of the rest of her life opposing it.

Wonder how Hil would respond to this. Tough enough to be ready for Putin?

This meme was a 4chan trolling op that got picked up on a few feminist sites. Good satire makes you wonder. Great satire is accepted and championed by the target.

When satire of feminists and actual feminist orthodoxy become hard to distinguish, it says something: The movement has become irrelevant to all but the crazed.

Bobber Fleck said...

The combination of satire and humor impaired feminists is always fun.

Leftists inevitably wind up in some sort of self parody.

The tweet that supercedes all others. I can't image what images Steel Panther would goof on Father's Day with.
