Bitches gonna bitch.

But seriously, they're ideological attack drones. The puppetmasters behind this show and every other akin to it want to control language, and by controlling language, control thought.

When you make certain words "unacceptable" or claim their use is unlawful, what's really being imported into the public unconscious is the peculiar notion of crimethink. Crimethink is when you censure yourself instinctively for thinking a certain thing or saying a certain word, because you know that's being bad. You don't rationally know why, but you know it's crimethink... and you're guilty of it! It's an artificial fear of saying the "wrong thing", that cripples thought, and makes rational discourse impossible, to be replaced with the loud, unthinking, emotional clamour of the "oppressed classes".

The actual word or "cause" behind it is totally irrelevant to the men up top who're running this game on you and me.

A whole lot of imagery, and emotional provocation.... Very little content. What did they say? They are brilliant actresses who show great emotion in their public speaking. Excellent theatrical piece.... But what did they say?

Cliche after cliche, women are strong, women are fierce, women can do what they want... Unless they want to do something we don't want them to, then women are repressed, women are fooled. Women don't belong to any man, but women must do as we(women) say.

Why?

I'll tell you why...

Emotional provocation and manipulation. Word put to rhythm and rhyme excites us... Leaving us emotionally charged with little idea of what was said.

Hitler... One of the best speakers of the modern era. Brought cheers, men to tears, lustful leers... And dispersed all fear. Only years later did his motives become clear...

TL;DR gimmicky with no content.

Edit: typo

I laughed. It was funny. They are taking just another word and reframing it to victimize themselves so they can "fight against it". Strawman much?
