Eli Kazballah is a male feminist and he made a series of images reversing common misogynistic ads men made targeting women in the 1950s, as if that will magically bring about women's equality. The problem is that this has been a recurring theme for feminists for centuries; what I would call a "revenge fetish", where they just take the arguments of misogynistic men in the past and flip them toward all contemporary men and tell the men who aren't misogynistic to "Be better" as if that will bring men to their side. They did it four centuries ago with Lucrezia Marinella's "La nobilita, et l’eccellenza delle donne" (The Nobility and Excellence of Women and the Defects and Vices of Men), a response to Giuseppe Passi's essay "Dei donneschi difetti" (On Women's Faults). Christine de Pizan also did it with her "The Book of the City of Ladies" in 1405, published as a response to the medieval poem "The Romance of the Rose", which was about men's chivalry toward women (always one-sided in favor of women). Charlotte Perkins Gilman came up with "masculism" as a euphemism for men's rights activists (Ernest Belfort Bax, the first modern men’s rights activist and socialist, and his 1908 book “The Legal Subjection of Men") and people opposed to women's suffrage and women's rights, conflating the two together despite them being worlds apart from each other, just like MRAs and incels (mostly left-leaning) are from the "red pill” and “manosphere" today. Newsflash, feminists, this Harris ad, among others, got Trump elected twice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjnyiMSKB3Q
