FEMINISM
Men, We Have a Problem, You’re Fragile AF!
Naming male rage for what it actually is. Pathetic.
After a solid week or so of filtering relentless male rage and mounting misogyny, I feel inspired to write a piece calling out one of the biggest problems we face in the developed world today. Conservative White Men.
That’s it. You can all go home now. Thank you for reading. Feel free to buy me a coffee… or a glass of wine to calm my frayed feminist nerves. Or a puppy. A puppy would do.
I mean, really, I could make this a short-form piece and end it right there; the biggest problem we face in the world today is men. Fragile, entitled, predominantly white, men. But that would belie the fact that men of all descriptions have always been a problem.
Indulge me in a random experiment. Look away from the screen and right now, just off the top of your head, run off a list of despots and dictators…GO!
Here’s mine, in no particular order: Stalin, Gadaffi, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Mao Zedong, Adolf Hitler, Manuel Noriega… Julius Friggen Caesar… Ghengis Friggen Khan. God. And I truly am just letting them pop into my head.
What about serial killers? Go!… Geoffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Ivan Milat. The Boston Strangler, The Yorkshire Ripper, The Angel of Death. God.
Now the mass murderers? No, I can’t be bothered either. We all know it’s going to be men. Did anyone else come up with God by the way? There’s another topic worthy of its own focused piece. Piss that dude off and at worst he’ll drown everybody’s ass. At best he’ll just settle for your firstborn. The fact that God is created in the image of man is not lost on me at all, which is why I thoroughly reject religion and the tokenism of female ordination too. But hey, while we’re on the subject of religions, wanna run off a list of cult leaders just for the hell of it?… GO!
David Koresh, David Miscavige, David Berg, Charles Manson, Joseph Smith, Warren Jeffs, L. Ron Hubbard, the orange Bhagwan dude…. lots of Davids by the way. Lots of Americans. But don’t get me started on that one.
