Stop the censorship of "The Red Pill" film

From one of the comments:

In the petition to stop the screening people, correctly so, pointed out that men's rights groups had funded part of the movie.

Incorrectly so. The movie was not funded by money from men's rights groups. The movie was funded by a KickStarter drive.

Yes it is true that a large amount of the KickStarter donations came from men associated with the MRM, but the important distinction was that the donors lost the ability to withdraw funding once the drive was completed. There was no way for the MRM to say "make this nice or we pull funding". There was no way to influence creative control over the move.

Currently the original petition has almost 2k signatures. We're only at 254 (just started). Let's get it moving.

My manager signed it.

It might be good to voice your disappointment with Palace Cinemas

Please read the statement the cinema sent to Men's Rights Melbourne here: https://www.change.org/p/stop-extremists-censoring-what-australians-are-allowed-to-see-save-the-red-pill-screening

They're talking about 'overwhelmingly negative reactions' and specifically referenced the feminist Change.org petition. Hopefully they can be swayed by more signatures than they were able to get.

The top comment says the movie has been pulled from the cinema. Is this true?

It looks like "Susan Smith" is a play on Mr Smith from the Matrix and that she might be an employee of Kino cinema itself.

This would make her part of the machine. :)

edit: if you have time go to https://www.facebook.com/Palacecinemas/reviews/ and read the backlash against the cancelling decision.

We should try and enlist twoxchromsomes in this. A major claim from feminists is that MRAs do not do enough activism. Where here is a film about that being censored from a feminist. If they truly want us be activist and have a discussion about the issues and believe in freedom of speech they need to stand up and get behind the showing of this.

Here is Cassie Jaye's interview with Dave Rubin.

I find it funny they would censor this doco but not stuff like 'no men beyond this point'' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2556936/ I watched it on netflix AUS couple of days ago, the premise is pretty much all men are not needed in the world anymore so they put them in camps to die off while women can give birth without sex and all new borns are females, so yeah lets censor this documentary lel

I'm so glad to see that the Hornets nest is getting beaten, kicked and prodded from all angles.

It's the best way to have Barbara Streisand working for us.

Too late, last petition to ban it was successful.

Signed! Thanks for sharing. This really seems like something worth rallying behind. Can't wait to get my digital copy.

Please consider boycotting Palace.

Dann01 · 2016-10-25T07:34:38+00:00

If it falls through with Palace, just book it at another theater. It has sold out, there is plenty of interest, i'm also on the waiting list. This film will be ground breaking

Where can I watch this movie online? They can't censor the internet.

DrDarkMD · 2016-10-26T12:32:58+00:00

If the movie is about Mens Rights, why is called the Red Pill?

IMO the Red Pill is something entirely different than men just wanting rights and is in of itself 'toxic'.

TomHicks · 2016-10-26T17:16:54+00:00

Uhm. I think she oughta put it up on youtube. Censorship won't matter then. The film has already been funded well beyond what she asked for.
