Men’s Rights subreddit regular Demonspawn (remember him?) is back again with some deliberately vague but definitely threatening talk about judges and politicians:
Not a lot of “plausible deniability” here, though I am sure various MRAs will try to excuse this as not being what it obviously is: a threat of violence against judges, politicians and others who work for the government.
He’s done this before; I wrote about it here.
And while we’re on the topic of Demonspawn, here’s a little followup comment of his from the thread we discussed the other day. It’s a giant wall of text, I know, but it contains gems like: “When women mouth off to men and get their faces bashed in, they’ll know equality.” At least this comment of his got as many downvotes as upvotes.
I’m banned from the Men’s Rights subreddit, of course, but Demonspawn, despite repeatedly violating the subreddit’s rules about posting comments advocating violence, continues to post away. See his comment history for more lovely thoughts on, among other things, why women are parasites who don’t deserve the vote.
Is anyone surprised? These people advocate rape after all.
Reprint MRA quotes to a less-sympathetic audience: ZOMG EVIL, BAN!
Advocate assassinations: Mixed votes, general consensus that hey, the guy has a right to his opinions.
It probably should be reported to the relevant authorities.
pretty sure ben franklin never advocated the targeted assassination of judges, but i could be wrong…
Slightly OT, but how do you get to see the details on the upvotes and downvotes in Reddit?
also, the continental army wasnt really fighting for their constitutional rights (not that demonspawn has a clear idea of what constitutional rights are) because of that whole ‘not existing yet’ thing
Wtf?
so how long until mikey shows up to unilaterally excommunicate demonspawn from ‘the Movement’
Yes, men NEVER change their minds.
Also, when men decide to take a lot of time off for their pregnancies, they risk their careers and everyone knows that this is right and just.
Tooooooootally true things that actually happened.
i love how, ‘everyone gets new parent leave’ is just completely not an option in demonspawns mind. no, we have to punish women for getting pregnant. that’s equality.

Women shouldn’t be free to choose their mates because society will collapse:

@cloudiah
There’s an info bar at the top of any reddit post or comment tat has any relevant data.
Sorry, I meant on the comments. I just see a number, not the details. I’m too lazy on a Sunday morning to figure this out. 🙂
So women are useless parasites for getting help from men and competing with them for jobs, are valuable only for producing children, and should all be SAHMs supported by their man? Unless their big manly provider man sees fit to piss off somewhere and doesn’t want to pay anymore. Then I suppose she needs to do…what? Eat the children and live feral in the woods? I have so many questions!
I see the MRAs have a very clear and coherent vision of the future.
Women have a special olympics? I did not know this.
The revolutionaries tended to offer civil servants the chance to leave on pain of death, in practice. The Sons/Daughters of Liberty were the first terrorists I’m familiar with in the future USA.

Gosh, these guys need to make up their minds. I mean, obviously they don’t think women are capable of love, but in that case, do they think women should marry for money or personality?
Cause he’s arguing that women don’t marry good providers like they used to, which implies that we should be most concerned about money/status. However, others complain about women caring too much for that stuff, being ‘hypergamous’ and all that, so those guys would prefer us going for personality. If we point out that their particular personalities suck, on the other hand, we’re vilified for not being nice enough and not ‘giving them a chance.’
In conclusion, women should just shut up and let the first guy that shows interest in her drag her back to his cave.
No, wait! That means women have the advantage of not having to do anything to get a relationship. How dare we put such a burden on the poor menz! We should read their minds and follow them the moment they start to think about screwing us. It’s only fair.
This isn’t just double standards. This is the mobius loop of standards.
So women only have value because they possess wombs? What if men and women were different species instead of different genders, and we all procreated asexually? Interesting thought experiment.
What if men and women were different species instead of different genders, and we all procreated asexually?
Then maybe women wouldn’t all be obsessed with marrying the richest man they could! /sarc
Cloudiah, it seems you need some sort of program or script or something. If you’re using Chrome, then the Reddit Reveal plug in works. I just downloaded it!
“When women mouth off to men and get their faces bashed in, they’ll know equality.”
Well…isn’t that…special.
That whole litany really scares me. Not only is it monumentally out of touch with reality (when in the fuck were there women-only Olympics? Or is he pissy about men’s and women’s categories?), but equating equality and bashing someone’s face in is really, really scary.

Article about street harassment in Belgium.
So…hypothetical scenario: women suffers street harassment, is blamed when she doesn’t “fight back” (whatever that is supposed to mean), but she’s supposed to totally forget that there are misogynistic pricks out there who will “bash her face in” for “mouthing off.”
Oh goody.
It’s nice to know that “being a woman” = “living in a no win scenario” at times.
One of the things I always notice with these types is it must be their interpretation of the Constitution. Which oddly enough matches what Susan B. Anthony once said about God: “I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their own desires.”
Thanks, BlueBee. Bees rule!
@Elizabeth:
It isn’t just that, though. Somehow they lose sight of the fact that they live in a country where people vote and things happen. If there are judges and politicians in power who don’t support their version of the constitution, “Revolt! Revolution! Impeachment and trial by fire!” Not, you know, “let’s vote for the other guy.”
And never ever “Crap, looks like a bunch of people don’t agree with me. I guess I’ll have to live with the majority’s decision and just try to campaign more to change minds.” Nope. Straight up “society’s already fucked since I don’t agree with them, might as well bring on the apocalypse.” Freaking dangerous attitude right there.
