Overlord L'Orange: Observations of an Average Citizen, Installment #4

One of my (older) male relatives posted this today on Facebook, and the ideology behind it is as antiquated as he is.

Newsflash: it's not the 1950's anymore.

This meme is offensive on so many levels. This (older) male relative also likes to remind people of their lack of humor about his offensive posts. Sigh.

Firstly, this woman is being mocked for being angry. She's probably this guy's wife, and that is why she is so angry. Living with a misogynistic husband and son would be enough to make her angry. And everyone knows that women should never get angry! God forbid! They should always be sweet and do what their husbands want them to do, which means having a "normal" hair color, and suppressing her emotions, so he can feel more comfortable. it's all about what he wants. She and her vagina can go f*ck themselves.

Secondly, this father and son pair are clearly from the 1950's, when a woman's place was in the kitchen baking cherry pies. They are also white, and appear to be privileged. They are mocking a woman for her hair color. Not only are they mocking her, they are rudely pointing at her, which is not very dignified, as they accuse her of having no dignity. They've apparently never been to a modern day High School or a music festival, because if they had, purple hair would not be such a big freaking deal. Which hair color would be preferable to these two morons? No hair color would be preferable to them, because the father clearly has issues with women expressing themselves creatively, as well as emotionally, and he is passing this trait on to his unfortunate and hapless son. What a couple of stick-in-the-mud nincompoops.

Lastly, she is dressed as a vagina. (Who isn't?!) Even though everyone knows that vaginas are disgusting! At least that's what all the men are saying in the comment section of this meme. Gross! Who wants to see a nasty vagina out and about in the light of day, especially holding a protest sign? This man is probably repressing his own homosexuality, and in the process feels the need to put women down for being dressed as vaginas and speaking their minds. I wonder which one is most offensive to him? What a dope.

This meme was posted in an attempt to demean the Women's Marches and the millions of women who marched in them, protesting misogyny and Patriarchy, and social injustice and inequality. And of course, Overlord L'Orange.

Guess what? It didn't work. It just made you look ignorant for posting it, you old fossil.

P.S. my gloves are off now, too.
