"The Women’s March: at the time, the largest single-day protest in American history. "
Can we all just take a moment to give thanks to the army of men who erected the stage and set up the PA for this event, and then dismantled it at the end. Somebody who actually went there commented on this, and noted how the ladies in attendance showed no appreciation for their efforts and didn't seem to even notice their existence. Like electricity, tap water, trains and food on supermarket shelves... these things just appear and men have nothing to do with it.
"I suggest backing away from TikTok and calling a professional—because a lot of you gals seem truly unhinged."
I think they are acting logically and consistently. For the last century and a half all feminists should have refused to socialise with, or have intimate relationships, with men. That's the correct and appropriate behaviour when you accuse men OF BEING YOUR OPPRESSORS. It is ludicrous to accuse men of being your oppressors and then date them or marry one. Trying to live that contradiction is a recipe for extreme cognitive dissonance, and mental illness in the long term (which is prevalent among feminists).
"Who can forget the cultural shockwaves created in 1987 when the late, great musician and activist Sinead O’Connor debuted her buzzed cranium as a protest against the hyper-sexualization of female artists in the music industry."
The feminist framing of female sexual allure is ITSELF a form of objectification of women. It defines women as passive objects who are sexualised by the male gaze. No mention is given to the AGENCY women have to enhance and exploit their sexual allure and femininity, and use it to manipulate men with - and to sell a bunch of records. If a 20 year old singer songwriter can adequately bash out a song on an acoustic guitar, if she is a woman she can get a million views on youtube if she shows cleavage and places the camera above her so she can look up at it. Her male equivalent will be lucky to get 100 views, no matter how he presents himself. The idea that female lack the agency or intelligence to exploit this natural power and advantage (in music or any other sphere of life) is insulting to women - but that is how feminists frame it.
"Twenty years later, Britney Spears did the same."
This might be one of the few sincere and real examples of a victim attempting to escape and send a distress call. At the time Spears was essentially being treated as a slave, and all she wanted to do was be a mother two her young kids and give up the music (she had already hit middle age at this point and had more than enough money to retire). Like Monroe she didn't really have an real friends, and was kept in a bubble of handers who controlled her every waking moment. She attempted to flee - with nowhere to go - and ended up driving about after shaving her head and saying "I'm sick of people touching me" (she was being polite). She was recaptured and placed in a 'rehab' before being wheeled out a few months later to carry on making money for the industry by prancing about on stage in a bikini. She is literally (legally) owned by one of her handlers. Hollywood is basically just sex slavery and Spears' genuine attempts to escape the cult were repackaged as 'Hollywood drama' by the media, and resold back to the idiotic public.
"Do these ladies really think men see them shave their heads, and dutifully bow their own heads in shame for their evil misogyny"
Young leftist women on social media live in a parallel universe. Feminism has already trained them to reject motherhood and parenting. It is, after all, the job of the state (not women) to raise children and pass on our cultural value, customs and world view to the next generation (or not).
As a result these women have no sense of purpose, value or identity as women. They are just consumers now. This is why they grasp at every new fad or movement which is fed to them on their smartphones.
I suspect the whole 4b thing (and TDS in general) is reverse psychology designed to keep leftists politically active and pushing for more woke agendas...... while at the same time reassuring conservatives that Trump really is some kind of 'man of the people' who is guilty of nothing worse than triggering leftists and feminists.
The truth is Trump is a puppet of the globalists and technocrats just like all the rest (as are his team). And his 'operation warp speed' has killed and injured millions and may well have sterilised a whole generation (we will find out in a couple of decades). So while he pretends to oppose 'non binary' identities, he may well have medicated an entire generation into precisely that state.
And now we have the idea that being upset over Trump's behaviour is something that only hysterical, deranged leftists do. Political dissent has now been defined as 'cringe'. We might ask: who does that benefit?
Wow, thank you for your thoughts and your well-framed responses to some of the stuff I bring up here. ! I agree with you--the 4B thing is another "doubling down" on the woke agenda, and we will see more of this in the days and months to come. I predict, however, that this will massively backfire now, because they will no longer be able to silence and cancel people and eventually they will be pushed more and more to the fringe where they belong.
I thought this was piece was going to be about a woman who had to shave her head because she had cancer wondering what was so empty in the lives of these folks to performatively do what she was forced to do.
As usual, I’m glad you said it, and I didn’t. Every time the performative left makes serious left wing thinking look bad by association, it’s another thumb on the scale tipping us toward authoritarianism.
Well stated. The hysteria has reached a fever pitch, and we all need a break! The internet is truly for ever. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️

I'm so glad I'm not on X or Tik Tok or any of those other platforms, because I have seen zero of what you wrote about. Thank goodness!
I'm not on there either but I've watched the madness in compilations from some of my favorite content creators! Wackadoodle!!
The ultimate irony is that the American women advocating for 4B are women that nobody wants in the first place. They're doing the world a favor.
I thought this was piece was going to be about a woman who had to shave her head because she had cancer wondering what was so empty in the lives of these folks to performatively do what she was forced to do.
I read a paragraph; I don’t think it is.
My two cents; when Brittany shaved her head….she was destroying evidence?
As usual, I’m glad you said it, and I didn’t. Every time the performative left makes serious left wing thinking look bad by association, it’s another thumb on the scale tipping us toward authoritarianism.
Cringeworthy yes, but I didn't characterize it as a stunt but rather an unreflective reaction. One that serves no useful purpose.
I know. If you read the piece you will get my reference.
