I sometimes say that the only “activism” that the Men’s Rights Movement is any good at is harassing individual women. But perhaps I’m being a bit too stingy here: following on the heels of the Father’s Rights activists who dress up like superheroes and climb up buildings and bridges to show that, well, I’m not sure what they’re trying to show, Men’s Rightsers seem to be developing a knack for poorly conceived media stunts that make them look like idiots.
The latest incredibly poorly conceived Men’s Rights media stunt come from Men’s Rights Edmonton, the A Voice for Men sister brother group famous for, among other things, chasing women down the street in the middle of the night and claiming that the women they chased were the bullies.
Anyway, the loudest and most obnoxious dude in the group, Nick Reading (a.k.a. “Eric Duckman”) has decided to run for Edmonton City Council on — get this! — the Patriarchy Party ticket! Oh no he didn’t!
Oh, yes he did. I suppose that the Patriarchy Party’s supposed platform — including a pledge “to end antiquated laws regarding women’s sexual consent” and provisions to instruct teachers “to snatch things like toy trucks out of the hands of little girls and replace them with dolls or tea sets” — probably inspired a chuckle or two amongst the folks at A Voice for Men, but the trollery here is really too inane to offend.
Whetever, dudes. You can find their badly designed pamphlet, with traced-photo “artwork” presumably by the noted FeMRA artist TyphonBlue, here.
fucking asshole i’m shaking right now
I would have left, if I weren’t about to have so much fun, up to and including my being banned for trolling in return for being trolled and insulted.
Right, so:
Racist, moron, homophobe, creep, asshole. These are great. I hope you all feel better.
Shake some more. Maybe hurling insults at me will help. I loved that part.
Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?
Yes, the Dark Lord has been emailed.
Be a professional perpetual victim for someone who cares. Fuck your feelings, as you and countless others have disregarded mine.
I have been abused. I chose to get over that shit. I’m sorry you can’t, augz.
What, besides your stupidity, makes you think we give the barest of fucks about your feelings? You’ve been an asshole from the jump. Narcissistic pig.
TAA, is that you?
I loved the bit about anti-feminism not implying “disbelief in women”. He finally said something correct! In that disbelief in women would mean believing that women don’t exist.
Quick Ally, watch a kitten being bottle fed
Exactly. So, fuck your feelings, too. You do nothing but throw insults, and expect any sort of respect. Naw.
@katz
awwwwwwwwwww :3 thanks
You came here and acted like an asshole, and now you’re whining because people didn’t respond politely? you’re like the bully who cries when someone finally fights back.
Look, IDGAF what you think about feminism and “perpetual victimhood”, this isn’t someone saying her feelings were hurt. This is someone experiencing PTSD, and you need to back the fuck off her.
It doesn’t. You expect me to give a fuck about you, though, so I don’t have to. Construe it as “self-centered” as much as you like.
If you don’t like how you’ve been treated, no one is making you stay.
We expect you to fuck off. Go away.
You came here for a fight and you got it.
I suggest we ignore wankyboy. He’s trolling for attention. Starve him ’till the Dark Lord kicks him off.
I’m not whining. I’m simply telling you how it is, and how I will treat you, based upon how you have received me, with insults and nothing more. You are the whinger here, GODDESS.
No-one is experiencing PTSD. I have said nothing about rape, or violence, or even implied anything of the sort. I simply said, FUCK YOU.
emily, I don’t know if I have PTSD. I’m just experiencing a fuckton of anxiety because of this.
also dub GET THE FUCK OUT
RE Dub –
Oh my!
So strong!
So manly!
Must prostrate!
So hawt!
Please go on!
So wet!
So great!
Wonderful!
Fuck me now!
/sarcasm
gaslighting piece of shit fuck off
Dub, you don’t get tell others what they are experiencing.
Ally – I’m sorry that this douche calls himself an atheist. *offers hugs*
YOU GOT WHAT YOU DESERVED. What makes you think you were entitled to better?
You’re psychic now?
liar.
Ally, I saw that post, and I’m so sorry about what happened to you. I assumed that what you said “triggered”, you were referring to a trauma reaction. Either way, you’ve been upset beyond the level of “offended” that trolls like Dub like to accuse feminists of, and you deserve better than his bullshit.
So, yeah, I think we can safely assume this one has nothing worthwhile to say and ignore him. Bras – I like this one.
