I’m asking because I’m genuinely interested in understanding, it’s the first time I stumbled uppon the word “reactionary content” so I had a look what it means https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactionary which in this context probably means:

In popular usage, reactionary refers to a strong traditionalist conservative political perspective of a person opposed to social, political, and economic change

Is the reactionism here in this meme that it through comedy tries to ridicule the “strong and independent woman” and thus promotes a political perspective of the patriarchy? Or am I now reading too much into it?

Congratulations, you have met a communist. This mod sounds almost like a satire of socialist thought-police.

edit: I was inspired to make c/mods

really necessary? I can’t see how it hurt to let them explain themselves in the comment section where everyone can see.

Well, one can interpret the meme many ways, including reactionary. I agree with the view @snooggums@kbin.social presented.

Everyone who says something I don’t like is trolling

And other things you can tell yourself

People admitting they didn’t know something and then spelling out how they now understand it once someone gives them the heads up is obviously not trolling.

What men did you talk to, because in my experience most don’t shut up about how they are strong and independent

I love it when people make memes with the sole purpose of making fun of women. It’s so 1920s.

And they use a character who’s entire fictional persona is making fun of them. It’s conservatives agreeing with Steven Colbert all over again.

Alternate title: “A man child realizes that society imposes roles on people based on gender and throws an ill-advised tantrum about the roles assigned to him.”

A male human is pretty much solely judged on his ability to be strong and independent. Men crowing about their prowess in those skills is pretty much the basis of the human mating ritual for as long as we have existed.

In the past 100yrs we have been eroding the strictness of those roles and women are now also allowed to take pride in those characteristics.

Ken needs to sit the fuck down now.

I question whether anyone who does not believe that men being judged solely on their ability to be strong and independent is every bit as much an injustice as women being all but forbidden from being those things can truly call themselves a fighter of the patriarchy.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

  • Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
  • Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
