Women just don't seem to matter.

then I should be worried about the message that the clip
I put up puts women in a poor light and s
upports violence against women. And I just don't feel that way. you can't have it both ways: if it's satire,
then its not supportive of the material it's against it That's the whole
POINT of satire. look at the clip I put up. watch it. do you feel it's telling people to do that to women? Or is it funny because it's so obviously not the way to behave.
If it's literal humou: ha ha lookit the funny stupid lesbian/black person/woman/wheelchair user/fatty, then yes
by all means it's very damaging with a
shitty message.
