Here's the CBCs usual shit take:

Can someone tell me what Fae Johnston has done to actually benefit women, other than just calling himself trans and existing?

Point out to women why voting progressive is a particularly esoteric form of ideological suicide?

  1. Brave
  2. Stunning
  3. Fierce
  4. Slay

His wish list remains unaccomplished.

In this world there's apparently only support or a "hateful response," eh?

None of that old fashioned criticism? Maybe a bit of questioning? Hmm? No?

Fuck Clown World.

That’s an interesting point. The demonisation of criticism, it’s either fullthroated ululating support or it’s trolling/bigotry, they have colluded with the media to make it impossible to actually debate or even converse about these topics.

It used to be that standing up to criticism was both a way to test your resolve but also to verify whether you were wrong or not about whatever it was you were arguing. They’ve eliminated a valuable tool and now we see monstrous levels of nonsense, on a daily basis, go unchecked and uncritically accepted as “true”, even the right wing papers like the Daily Mail are using preferred pronouns these days, it’s nuts.

Not so long ago, I used to respect the CBC. My, how times have changed.

Seriously. Today they published this:

Literally two days in a row of platforming penis-havers who shit on women. To celebrate women's equality.

That place has rotted into an intersectional shit hole.

Yup, we were all fools at some point. We just have to realize that we've been fooled, and never forget who was lying to us, like the CBC. It's hard to believe I didn't question them when I was young, but I didn't.

I'm kind of curious, what are his greatest hits? So far I've heard of:

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

What do we men do other than show up, exist, and demand money. Looks like it’s doing a lot for women.

So he's Canada's answer to Charlotte Clymer. Cool. I figured it was something like that.

Honest and Authentic

This lunacy is not going to age well.

Well, no, it's true. He is honestly and authentically a man cosplaying as a woman.

Dude's got a Neanderthal skull.

There's something viscerally repulsive about him to me.

The uncanny Valley mixed with a thinly veneered hatred of actual women, most likely.

Just try replicating his facial expressions in the Hershey's commercial. The smug, knowing sneer and the squinchy, exaggerated Dylan Mulvaney style 'smile'. No woman could get taken seriously acting like that and he knows it.

[–]Wanderingthehalls 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

And really fucking deep nasolabial* folds for a 27 year old.

*Though he'd probably be pleased about that as he thinks the 'labial' part of that word makes him a real woman, rather than someone with a prematurely lined face.

Not uncommon in men...

I don't mind nuts in my chocolate, but I do draw the line at dicks. Sorry, not interested.

They really need to get on their fat pride bandwagon over this.

Hey ladies, eat all the Hershey's and you too can look like Augustus Gloop the incredibly enourmous child.

[–]JasonCarswellSisyphus / Ouroboros 5 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 2 fun6 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Another tragic example of the corporatocracy's intentional divisive dumbing down of gullible retarded sheeple.

Yes you can break Hershey into HER and SHE, but Y?

The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.

Conservatives upset about limited edition candy bars that they have never heard of before because of the 5 special edition bars 1 is trans. Why do you make issues out of things you are not fans of?

Dude. Celebrating a man on "Women's Day" is the problem. Not whatever the fuck it is you're on about.

This isn't something that "conservatives"--and I put that in quotation marks because who even knows what your definition of the word is--are alone in being disgusted by, plenty of people on the other side of the ideological fence are finally waking up and realizing that this isn't right.

And it's an issue because it presents someone who isn't a woman in a way that only women should be presented. It's another glaring example of a cosplayer inserting himself where he doesn't belong.

[–]MularkeyMan2 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

You aren't getting my point, nobody gave a shit about these limited edition candy bars before, they do now when a transgender person is on them.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

They're intentionally going out of their way to piss off conservatives and straight women who enjoy playing the victim, pissing away their and the entire LGBT's social capital in the process.

Just calling everyone who shakes their head at this transphobic is really not making a difference. Might even be accurate when you're referring to the users on this website. Still worthless as an argument, and you're giving their arguments fuel, arguments they can use when they want to do or express something actually hateful. They'll just point to this and countless other examples and say "see??? the libs are gonna call us hateful no matter what, so might as well go all out!!"

So the response to SJWs is becoming your own kind of SJW? Why does everyone think you can fight fire with fire?

Oh no yeah you're right. But they do it because it "works" they just burn everything down in the process. This schism is getting out of hand.

Hello reddit.

Because they decided to counter SJWs by acting exactly like SJWs.

Appropriate mascot. I'm sure he's all about the Hershey Highway.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I'm convinced that all of these ESG stories about trannies or woke movies are just trolling psyops. Therefore, they're not to be taken seriously and should in fact, be mocked.
