And what galaxy-brain take would you offer if it were a man in the photo with an identical caption?
Is it just me or does it smell like whataboutism in here?
Women DID fight for the right to be able to do this. That’s not a conspiracy theory. They insisted on it.
This person is just a dumb troll, I've seen and reported them on other posts. Everyone ignore please.
That's not a novel or interesting idea. Having low grade shit shoveled onto the platform has no impact on "echo chambers".
Because your statement really is low grade shit and you're obviously not interested in an actual discussion or debate.
Lol, you're giving yourself too much credit. I doubt anyone is offended by your shitheel low effort trolling. Don't confuse people calling out your stupidity with people being offended by your stupidity. You're not that clever.
"women fought for the right to work" may be a factual statement on its own, but it's entirely irrelevant to the context of the OP.
Why do you think you upset anyone? Your initial statement was irrelevant and ignorant, but it didn't upset me in the slightest. I CAN articulate my thoughts, but it's pointless because you're not having a discussion in good faith as demonstrated by your responses to others who DID articulate why you're talking out your ass.
People can call you a dumbass without being upset.
responds to a basic meme that happens to be a picture of a woman by making a completely irrelevant comment that specifically criticizes women.
"guys I'm totally not a troll or a misogynist".
Women fought for equal rights - for being allowed to do the same things men were, without restriction. Have careers, live their own lives, be equal before the law, not be relegated to the role of housewife/childbearer by default and without being given a choice.
This meme is not about that. It's not even about women. It just happens to have a woman in the photo. This meme is about big businesses routinely and with impunity exploiting their workers. Nobody ever fought for the right to be exploited. Of course, I don't expect someone with a user name like PepeLivesMatter to understand that kind of nuance.
No, I do understand that nuance, and I appreciate your ability to explain it without resorting to name calling or insults.
You and others are upset not because what I said wasn’t true (it was), but because it’s something you’d rather not talk or even think about. Okay. Point taken. She did indeed not blame men for her situation, at least not directly, I will admit that. Although I’m sure there’s already a feminist somewhere waiting to explain to me how shareholder value is a tool of the patriarchy that was designed for no other purpose than to oppress women.
You're not digging yourself out of that hole out of your own making.
And no, I'm not upset about anything you said. Truth has nothing to do with it. What you said was nonsensical, baseless, and not very intelligent. B most people's standards, you're trolling. I've long gotten over being upset by trolls.
I have explained where you're wrong, to the point that you thanked me for it in your previous post. But you still insist on being right. I can't help you with that, and am not going to either.
And yet you've replied to them in the same vein as you have to me: whining that you're right but being insulted.
If you'd care to point out which part of my response was 'heaping abuse over your head', then maybe we'd get somewhere. Then again, ask me how much I care. On second thought, don't. You'd just whine about the reply.
Wasn't selling anything. Go in peace, but go.
No, I thanked you for explaining it without name calling or insults. But then you felt the need to go right back to calling it baseless and unintelligent, thereby erasing any progress that was made.
You already admitted that what I said was true, why go back to insulting me for saying it, when I made you an offer of truce by accepting that it was uncalled for?
That was a factual statement, not an insult. But hey, if the shoe fits...
That is provably false. I have done no such thing. Take your gaslighting elsewhere.
This you?

That's essentially what I said in my initial comment, nothing else. I didn't say they ought to go back to the stove or anything stupid like that. Just that having to go to work to provide shareholder value is part and parcel of making that choice. Men have to do it too.
No, that's what you wish you'd said. Your interpretation of your own words is as crooked as that of this meme.
Now go waste someone else's time, I'm done with you.
The only one's time I'm wasting is my own, it's your choice whether to continue to respond to me or not.
Who gives a shit. This meme is for everyone. Men, women, fucking everyone. Your idiot shit take is meaningless, is what I’m trying to say, because there was no intent to make it about women. You made it about women, and nobody fucking asked.
