When I saw this quote from our old friend, A Voice For Men’s repeatedly-banned-from-Twitter Social Media Director Janet Bloomfield, it seemed to me to be so extravagantly confused that even the most confused cat against feminism would be embarrassed to have said it. So I made a new meme for it. Ta da!
Here’s the whole paragraph the quote comes from:
I am often accused of simply not understanding what feminism IS when I dare to criticize it, especially on Twitter. Get a dictionary, blah blah blah whatever. See, here’s the thing: I know exactly what feminism IS and the claim that feminists stand for gender equality is not only outright laughable, I’m beginning to see it as a calculated, deliberate, malicious lie. Feminists damn well know they are seeking superiority and the wholesale destruction of society as we know it to be replaced by a brutal matriarchy in which all women and the remaining men will be subject to totalitarian controls that would make Stalin green with envy.
Not all the remaining men! I have been assured I will be guaranteed a spot in Women’s Country with the other male servitors.
Anyhoo, if anyone else feels inspired to do any meme-ing, there are certainly any number of quotes about feminism from MRAs that might work well for similar graphics. No need to stick with cats. There are any number of animals that might better symbolize confused MRAs, from dung beetles to snakefish to bat guano. Ok, that last one isn’t strictly speaking an animal, but you get the idea.
@fruitloopsie Your skit made me LOL.
@ fruitloopsie – google snurt yaktak brik brak. Also, bonbon! And purse!
@ frootloopsie I like this skit. She really does act that way, like because she succeeded in insulting you she’s got the higher ground somehow.
Funnier is how she acts like being suspended 2x from Twitter actually helps promote men’s rights because of “the censorship”; then asks for right-wing journalists to contact her to try and “get the message out.” Almost like she’s looking for some more attention now that it’s apparent Twitter is not going to give her back her more valuable accounts, the one with 10,000 followers

Actually it was more like 77.7K but who’s counting? Janet Bloomfield sure isn’t, at least if you ask her.
@ idleddillettante – I just wish I could figure out what the Hell her message is supposed to even be. Honestly, she just sounds like a disaffected, bored crank!

Hey! We could be dorky and use fictional languages from matriarchal cultures!
Shlu’ta Usstan inbal miulk’ars whol doerin phor xuil nindol ishwi inth?
Contrapangloss
Please teach us master!
Hard to sound like anything else when that’s what she is.
Yay for more transparent fear mongering.
Did you see our new baby orca, contrapangloss? Two days old and sooooooper cute!
And that’s why we like orca: MATRIARCHY! BONBONS! APEX PREDATOR!
For the curious, translation of previous: “Can I have minions for coming up with this brilliant scheme?”
I tend to default to drow as the stereotypical dudebro’s worst nightmare of a matriarchical culture. Seriously, though, drow society would never work. Nope. Not at all.
But, their language is kind of fun! It’s like a odd mixture of tolkien elvish and dwarfish, with respect to pronunciation, with a tinge of tolkien spiders thrown in for good fun.
If I were to translate the above, the closest I could get would be:
Usstan thugrin mumbaro ulu ilythiiri ‘zil l’waela jaluk rivvil’s sslith ramoth d’natha jalil nau’thalus tekartas. Akntoa, d’elezz, ilythiiri tekartas orn’la neitar xund. Nobe. Naut a jal.

You can totally cheat and find a translator, though. When I’m lazy, this link does a pretty good forward translation.
I haven’t tried it for back translating, though.
Wow, contrapangloss! May I please be one of your minions? I have many practical skills, and if anyone gets hurt, well, I am a nurse! I can totally call 911!
I am alarmed at the picture. I blame the movie Mars Attacks.
THAT’S WHAT IT REMINDS ME OF!!!!!!!!!
@marinerachel:
BABY ORCA!!!! Indeed, sooooooper cute. Are we thinking of the same baby whale? Samish’s baby?
SEAK’s pods haven’t seemed to have had quite as rough a last few years as WA and BC’s three, particularly J, but baby orcas! THEY ARE CUTE AND GOOD AND WONDERFUL!
Once we take over the world, can we finally get an evil space ship? (My vote goes for The Narada.)
Did that guy read what he typed!? Has he even spoke to actual woman before!?
Did you even read his post? He’s had female coworkers! One of them was a lesbian, which proves something. Many of them worked tech or labor jobs, but don’t let that fool you, because 95% of women are secretaries. When the apocalypse comes, these women will be helpless because they don’t know how to do anything but sit around typing on computers. They’ll be forced to suck up to the new rulers of the planet: men who don’t know how to do anything but sit around typing on computers.
Then we’ll all be sorry we were feminists!
To be honest, this is one of the less sad MRA comment sections I’ve seen. At least they seem to have some hobbies outside of complaining about women.
The magical chant that would bring about our long-desired, brutally oppressive matriarchy:
I kind of love it. Especially that very last line, which I’m going to be chanting under my breath all day.

The idea of Unitarians performing human sacrifice is strangely amusing. Reminds me of when I was running the D&D campaign, and had the party encounter some pilgrims from the Cult of the Ichor God Bel-Shamharoth (Reformed). The pilgrims turned out to be on their way to the Spring Picnic and Jumble Sale, and were innocuous to the point of being ridiculous.
Now I’m trying to imagine Satanist Unitarians.
Sheanon
Yes I know. it’s something that he could predict the future and using ‘science’ about the downfall of civilization after seeing a couple women at his work place.
Awkward naked Poser-rendered drow chick for the win.
Wow, we Unitarians sound really hard core. Like Bubbles.
