Ok, so this is not an OFFICIAL Trump slogan, at least not yet. But this pic, evidently real, has been making the rounds on social media today, and if nothing else it might provide some fledgling metal band with an awesome name.
Or just a nice bumpersticker:
(I made this with Little Green Footballs’ Trump bumpersticker generator.)
I do feel obliged to note that “vagenda” isn’t original to this particular sign-maker: There was a short-lived but fairly widely loved feminist site called The Vagenda that (alas) went on what now seems to be a permanent hiatus last summer. Though I suspect that the sign-maker was not actually a fan of the site.
Meanwhile, I found this on Urban Dictionary:
Now this would be sort of super cool if it were a real thing in the world, but it’s a Fringe reference:

Funny thing, I actually was thinking of using dickhead, but I’ve been trying to not use slurs involving genitals. I’m also very uncreative in my name calling so it usually turns into “fucking asshole”.
But, I agree with you, it’s just others, i.e. Milo bootlickers, are gleeful over Leslie Jones getting the her imaginary comeuppances. The fuckfaces.

“Not happening. They think periods are icky.”
Oops! True that! Us Aussies call them full-stops so they are never icky to Aussie trolls. I guess their American cousins are stuck with the ellipsis.

“I love this place. A troll comes in and it could turn heated, instead we make jokes about punctuation. Most excellent.”
Agreed. I goes to show what a great community this place is, doesn’t it? I am glad I found this place. Funny story about that. When I first found this site, I avoided it for ages. I thought it was a MRA site, because of its name. You know how they like to claim credit for every good thing (never the bad stuff, of course), or things that they consider good, that was done by a any man ever just by virtue of being male. When I read the name of this site, I thought it was one of those instances, We Hunted the Mammoth sounds exactly like something like a MRA would say and boast about. When I gathered the nerve to check this site out, it ironically turns out that I was right! It was something a MRA said, a great big “We hunted the mammoth to feed you!” screed right in the comment section of the glossary page!! This site is named in honour of THAT screed! I lol’d so hard at that! Now every time I read a comment written by an MRA taking credit for every good thing done by a man ever by virtue of being male, I affectionately think of them as ‘We Hunted the Mammoth’ comments. ?
@Axe
Initials same as SOMEONE ELSE we keep mentioning on here. (and it’s painful to share initials with that person)
And the “typo” is actually only in my first name. Which is french. Although you’ll also see it in english, but then it’s not actually the same name. Although there is an actual equivalent. Incidentally, said equivalent could also be a hint to said typo.
Kinda OT:
Hillary Clinton just gave a speech and hoooolyyyyy shhhhiiieeet. I just finished reading the transcript… Breuh!

She goes in on the altright like a muffugin boss, callin em out by name! Bet reactionary twitter’s losing their shit right now. Most fire speech 2016! November can’t come soon enough
@John
Got it! I think… 5 and 7 letters?
@MissEB47
Funnily enough, I found out about WHTM (then Man Boobz) because it kept coming up in angry conversations in the dirty corners of the internet. Keeping an eye on their shitty rhetoric is kind of a hobby for me, and at some point it started seeming like someone named David Frutreulleelel (they never did manage to spell it right) was getting them mighty pissed. I ended up lurking here for the longest time by force of habit, after lurking and watching fascistoid clogs for years.
@Axe
Holy shit you’re good.
And yeah they were anticipating that speech for the longest time, I need to read the transcript and then go watch the fireworks.
@John
Yay! I reckon there’s like a 10% chance I’m wrong still, but I like it that way. Leaves some room for doubt, a little mystery 🙂
Anyway, I suppose it’s only fair. If you wanna try mine:
1)”Axecalibur” contains the 1st letter of my surname but not forname
2)Semitic 1st, Celtic 2nd
3)I only ever use my full forename on official forms if I can help it
4)Surname isn’t uncommon but I still hafta spell it out for people
5)Take all the vowels out, and it’s not hard to see what it’s supposed to be. A good thing, cos my signature makes said vowels into mush
Hope that wasn’t too easy 😉
*nervous chuckle*
I’ve been staring at the screen for like 5 minutes trying to just start thinking. I might need to retry this after I’ve had some sleep o_O
Or I may be really bad at this.
About Iron Maiden and nerdiness: Let’s be honest, Maiden is revealed as the nerdiest metal band of all time when you start looking at their lyrics. I mean, they wrote a song about Alexander the Great. One that reads like a 4th-grader’s report on him (and, to be fair, isn’t that great). To say nothing of the Rime of the Ancient Mariner and songs about the Charge of the Light Brigade.
Plus the nerdiness of writing a song called ‘The Clansman’ and apparently not realizing that most people hearing that aren’t going to think of Scotland but of Mississippi.
@Big Head
Barbados! I think we’ve added a new country to our list of correspondents. Welcome.
That’s kind of a US-centric thought about a non-US band with a huge international fanbase.
Metal in general is nerdy. I myself am nerdy. It’s a match made in nerd heaven.
I’m listening to nerd rap made by a metalhead. This album is titled after Tanizaki’s 1933 essay on aesthetics In Praise of Shadow. There’s a song about the struggle of the Basque people against fascist regimes during WWII and the Franco era. Another about various “invisible” people : the poor, the odd, etc. Themes in previous albums included occultism, paganism (there’s a beautiful song about medieval witches – and the persecution they faced), facing mental illness and depression, and, and, and, a lot of tributes to several metal giants including Ronnie James Dio, who’s stated to be the main influence on the guy’s music.
Can you say nerd.
@ axe
“They call me Captain Planet!”
I could so go for that; I love all that 70s shtick.
ETA: Now you’ve got me working out supervillain names based on Honkey, and also a role for Pam Grier. I’m thinking ‘Sister (something)’
@Alan
Yo, was that a Heat of the Night reference? You got it…
She’s obviously playing Gaea, the Earth Mother. But in disguise as a badass activist/NGO leader, taking on the pollution of minority areas. Call her ‘Boss Lady’
@ axe
Yup, nice spot.
ETA: Thinking about it, of course there’s no reason Pam can’t actually be the Captain (although I do really like Boss Lady). Also I’d kinda pencilled in that role for Fred Williamson.
I suppose that I shouldn’t be surprised so many people caught that. I’ve read the Bible all the way thorough several times and pieces of it even more but Maiden is what I associate that quote with.
Sinkable John-awesome! You have more courage than I do! Funny how they never can get his name right, lol! It is kinda the reverse of how I found this site. I found WHTM when I just became feminist and just recently heard about MRAs and how awful they are. In fact, they are a major reason why I am a feminist. Witnessing their behavior on any and every article remotely focused on women’s issues, their habit of blaming every little thing that a woman does on feminism and seeing the way they abuse feminists online, increased my interest in feminism. I was doing research on MRAs when this WHTM popped up. At the time I did not have the courage to go on to their sites (I still don’t, reading WHTM is enough of a taste of their awfulness for me.), or give them views, so I mainly restricted my research on them to feminist sites. Since I thought WHTM was one of those awful MRA sites like A Voice for Men, I avoided WHTM like it was the plague! Glad I did finally work up the courage to visit WHTM, otherwise I would have missed out on its awesomeness!
Someone posted a Vagenda of Manocide Magic: the Gathering card to my FB page. This is starting to get attention.
@calmdown
So the vagenda was tigers!? That would help with the manocide…
If Putin is any indication, tigers will definitely be a huge help with the manocide.
ETA : As long as they’re not zoo tigers set up to ambush him in front of journalists while he’s carrying a tranq rifle with several times the required dosage, of course.
Seeing as he’s one of the nazi/manosphere’s idols, I find this whole thing pretty funny.
I just got the caption reference. Oh myyy.
I made a music video for Vagenda Of Manocide! #feminist! Check it out 🙂
