When you think misandry couldn’t get worse…

A_blue_horse · 2022-08-14T18:21:06+00:00

Jesus Christ I have power? I might just drop out college and leave my job since I apparently have power it will be irrelevant.

mfuentz · 2022-08-14T18:34:31+00:00

What is this “power”?

g1455ofwater · 2022-08-14T20:30:39+00:00

The Artichoke Trust is funded by the Arts Council England which is funded by the government.

The government has given the Arts Council a certain amount of funding and it’s thought that £3.5m has gone to Artichoke Ltd.

The government is literally funding misandry(and racism). This is extremism coming from the government, the government are extremists.

As a Black man, when I see BS like this all I see is that white women are trying to gaslight white men. White women have always held power and they know it. They have held control over white men by questioning their manhood and making them do horrendous things. For example, many Black men have been lynched and Black communities destroyed because of white women’s false accusations of sexual assault. Karens are an example of how white women wield power with the expectation that, if they raise their voices or cry, anything they want, regardless of how ridiculous it is, will be done. When I worked in mental health I had white male clients who were completely screwed over in family court when their cheating wives decided they wanted a divorce and they ho had no recourse when they dealt with parental alienation. When we see images of anti-school integration school protests in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s we see the twisted faces of white women yelling, spitting and throwing things at school children.

White women have always had power in the U.S….they just refuse to acknowledge it because it goes against their feminist narrative that portrays them as victims when, in many cases, they were and are victimizers.

Add a "WO" before "MEN" and watch this billboard get taken down in less than an hour after it's put up.

Due_Cancel_3296 · 2022-08-14T18:36:30+00:00

Why is this even up. It’s racist and sexist

BlvckAnomally26 · 2022-08-14T22:08:50+00:00

The fact that they think white men were the only men that had patriarchal power throughout history is racist in itself.

CookieMittenKitten · 2022-08-14T21:22:42+00:00

Okay hands you electric bills

Lightning77Plus · 2022-08-14T20:18:11+00:00

I missed the last Legion of Evil White Males meeting. Where exactly do we get this power I've heard so much about?

silly_birb_Banned · 2022-08-14T19:37:04+00:00

Power was never given, men died in war to get it.

It's too easy for women to ask for power when they never won a single battle in history

Soft_Leather_Couch · 2022-08-14T23:30:39+00:00

Of course men have power.

We’re constantly put down from every avenue and blamed for every problem faced in society, yet we’re still around holding society up.

If that’s not power then I don’t know what is.

airfox3522 · 2022-08-14T20:29:26+00:00

I am so glad that I don't live in U.K...

guachumalakegua · 2022-08-14T23:09:31+00:00

Notice that they’re always asking; “believe all women”

“Lean In”

“Come join us fight…”

“Pass the power”

Just do the opposite of what they tell you.

mechajutaro · 2022-08-15T03:39:43+00:00

Someone put up a counter-billboard: "Yo, VOX readers. Go hit Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos up for a slice of power. The other 99% of us men have none to give you"

SecondEldenLord · 2022-08-14T23:39:33+00:00

If it was the other way around, that billboard would've been taken down INSTANTLY.

Also, what power? Jesus, I wish I had that power they so speak of.

TheManlySebby · 2022-08-14T23:33:53+00:00

I'm neither straight or white but I am a man and I don't recall getting a male-privilege care basket or anything of the sort lol

matrixislife · 2022-08-15T00:31:46+00:00

London-based artist getting part of a huge Arts grant

I think she's got plenty of the power already, more than the rest of us have anyway.

peanutbutterjams · 2022-08-15T05:50:26+00:00

Check out their "Team": https://www.artichoke.uk.com/team/

Out of 19 positions, only TWO of them are held by men (I swear finance is always a guy).

These are just upper-class female PMC's who know nothing - and want to know nothing - about class (be it in terms of wealth or propriety, apparently).

“For this first exhibition of The Gallery, we invited artists from around the world to respond to the theme ‘Straight White Male’.

Because you knew exactly the sort of art you'd get from the people you were asking: hateful art.

“The artworks displayed in the exhibition represent a varied, nuanced and thoughtful response to this theme.

No, they don't. There is no nuance and thoughtfulness in accusing an identity group of not "sharing power", particularly when the power you want shared is democratic power and all democratic power in the world was achieved through the sacrifice of men's lives.

“We’re not asking that the public should necessarily agree with the statements in any of the artworks, just that they should think about and debate the ideas.

When it's hate speech against men, they're "ideas".

If it was hate speech against women, everyone at the organization would have been fired.

In other words, this organization wants to establish hate speech as an idea "we should think and talk about".

Ferbuggity · 2022-08-14T23:48:18+00:00

The government has given the Arts Council a certain amount of funding and it’s thought that £3.5m has gone to Artichoke Ltd.

^^^^ and this is how the woke agenda got its power, feeding off disenfranchised minorities for billions in govt funding.

Lower-Clue-6394 · 2022-08-15T04:12:07+00:00

No matter what you give, it’s still never enough. Entitled bitches. Fuck them all.

barndoor101 · 2022-08-15T00:06:35+00:00

Worthy of note that in the UK we currently have a leadership race, between:

Asian man And White woman

Since these idiots must use identity politics I feel it's worth pointing this out.

Top_Professional4545 · 2022-08-15T07:04:12+00:00

Im black an I've notice white women talk a gang of shit about you guys.... Where did that come from it's weird to me. And don't they know that ppl will always see them as the counter part to white men no matter how much they try and separate themselves? I know it's somewhat off topic just an observation

Pineappl3pizza · 2022-08-14T19:12:15+00:00

That’s all I do is pass it. I never get to take any for myself.

Mydogisphotogenic · 2022-08-15T04:11:40+00:00

This comes from a place of hate. Unfortunately this type of hate is not only condoned but also encouraged…

neighborhoodpainter · 2022-08-15T12:52:46+00:00

It's the apex fallacy. They see the top 1-2% of men dominating society and think this is how men are like. Most people at the top are men, but most at the bottom are also men. It's stupid things I've heard feminists say like, "men hold all the wealth". It's 1% of men who hold the wealth. But they ignore the "bottom" of society, i.e. homeless, those doing dangerous jobs, etc, which are mostly men.

Terrible_Head_8847 · 2022-08-14T21:21:23+00:00

Sad that left wing politics has completely given up on any other messages and has nothing to offer straight white men, who still make up a huge part of the electorate. Not to mention that if you meet two of those three you are still the enemy (except for straight white women of course, they are saints).

Training-Rich5057 · 2022-08-14T21:25:13+00:00

When all men check out of society an only take care of themselves. Meaning making no effort to help anyone who supports that madness. Hurt the pockets of the idiots promoting this and those who support it. Flip it back on them.

Frosty-Strawberry-97 · 2022-08-15T02:17:59+00:00

I’d love to see this billboard made about women instead of men… there would be a National day of mourning for the loss of any fucks we give

StudentOfTheTruth1 · 2022-08-15T04:24:50+00:00

This is supposed to be an "art" project in the UK, funded by taxpayer money. It makes perfectly clear that this 'government" is NOT for everybody. It is oppression and discrimination of some part of the population by government power.

Silly-Activity-6219 · 2022-08-14T20:58:38+00:00

I’ll pass the power, as soon as I figure out what power I have

JadedLitigant · 2022-08-15T08:39:00+00:00

What a racist and pernicious advert.

Only a tiny substrate of men hold power, the rest of us have zero power. Also, positions of power are not held exclusively by white men. Where is this power that we allegedly hold going to be given to and what will they do with it?

I fucking hate identity politics. It's the same Marxist horseshit that many of my black and LGB friends subscribe to.

Death_Stranding69 · 2022-08-15T09:21:12+00:00

Can someone translate that into working class text please

AspirationsOfFreedom · 2022-08-15T11:01:13+00:00

I have had several conversations with my almost female exlusive coworkers (in healthcare), where some general statement is how easy we men have it, or how easy it must be to be a man...

To challange it, i've reversed that statement many times, and almost laugh myself to tears when they tell me i couldnt possibly understand how its like to be a woman, as im not one.

"SO WHO SAID YOU COULD SIT AROUND SAYING HOW EASY MEN HAVE IT, WHEN YOU'VE NEVER BEEN ONE!?"

CarAndMotorcycleGuy · 2022-08-15T13:56:08+00:00

What power?

Steaky_B · 2022-08-15T15:18:46+00:00

I understand slander is frowned upon on this sub but all im getting from that billboard is that it's probably made by some broke bitter women who have been coddled their entire life being upset that they can't get absolutely everything in the world by complaining about it.

rodneybmore · 2022-08-14T23:59:40+00:00

White women run the world

Yup, all 2% of us. -.- Get the fuck out of here with this bullshit. -.-

Spread your legs and I’ll pass you my power. Obese, with coloured hair and pierced septum do not apply (my power will not work on them)

Seventh_Planet · 2022-08-15T05:43:42+00:00

It is art. We are discussing it. It's working as intended.

Also I want to address a pet-peave of mine: The notion that the government should only spend money on art if the art is nice and happy and doesn't upset anyone. And the idea that somehow paying non-compliant artists less money somehow makes that money suddenly available for all the good and helpful youth projects we were totally going to finance, if only the evil artists didn't suck up all that money for themselves.

The government has given the Arts Council a certain amount of funding and it’s thought that £3.5m has gone to Artichoke Ltd.

Mr Daly said: “My initial view is that taxpayer’s money is being spent to give the company the opportunity to do this, and if it’s a political statement, taxpayers money should not be used for that, and they should use their own means.

“If they feel that they’ve got a political point-of-view or a social point-of-view there are plenty of ways they can do that but getting the taxpayer to pay for this is in my view both inappropriate, a complete and utter waste of money.

Oh, because artists have it so easy getting money for their art. Yeah, I want to paint something critical of capitalism. Which corporation should I ask if they want to finance me?

“I think that any type of statement that stigmatises or attacks any single part of our community is pointless, ridiculous and just stokes division for no reason whatsoever.

“One of the things I want to see is in art and in life is a world that celebrates and looks at things in a positive way.

Yay, we are paying artists taxpayer's money, but only if they draw happy things that celebrate life. No one wants that Guernica shit. Wayy too depressive, and way too political.

“At this moment in time we’ve got a conservative leadership campaign with a white woman and a man of Indian origin, it does tend to suggest that white straight men at the moment are missing out on, as we speak here, that sort of power.

“We should be celebrating the achievements like the Lionesses and highlighting how power should be inclusive and shared.

“Instead, we have people like this wasting everyone’s time with pointless messages for their own ends.

Oh, so you want art that has a more pointed message? Or art that has no message at all?

“Of all the things that are happening in our town, I would have preferred to see the money go on youth facilities or providing training and work experience for people, there’s all sorts of ways we can positively help and assist people who feel excluded from power.

Why would you want artists to provide training and work experience for people? They are artists. The make art.

It's like saying "Hey, I don't like how the BBC spends so much of our money for rights to show football. I don't like sports. Why don't they put the money in more documentaries instead?"

IT DOES NOT WORK THIS WAY!

I think most people see it this way

San7igamer · 2022-08-15T09:10:02+00:00

Actually men have all the power because they keep running the society women are enjoying. The problem is that the power to end it is kinda useless.

FutbolIntellect · 2022-08-15T09:19:35+00:00

Being publicly racist and sexist at the same time. Only in UK

GF1386 · 2022-08-15T09:37:31+00:00

Call their bluff. Let them do construction. Let them drown on fishing boats. Let them die on oil rigs. Put rifles in their hands and send them to fight in jungles. Pass the power. And in the meantime don’t have sex with them since we are so despicable.

Diligent_Advice616 · 2022-08-15T10:15:52+00:00

Quick question: What about the gay white men I mean why settle for just the straight man’s power they should really commit to this more. ./sigh.
