What men did you talk to, because in my experience most don’t shut up about how they are strong and independent
You must mostly be talking to douchebags.

…correct, I am not talking to douchebags
if you meant OP was a douchebag, I’m very confused about why you think that

What I gather from this is that me ane OP are not talking to the same people you are
I love it when people make memes with the sole purpose of making fun of women. It’s so 1920s.
Ok, I didn’t see the movie yet, I just assumed this is a funny quote from the movie.
Honestly, it definitely tracks with the humor/satire of the film, so you’re not off base
Eh, I cooooould see this being presented in a sarcastic, self aware way I suppose
It works at a certain point of his character arc for sure
And they use a character who’s entire fictional persona is making fun of them. It’s conservatives agreeing with Steven Colbert all over again.
… because the default assumption is they, whereas historically the default assumption for women has been different.
I honestly thought this meme was making fun of the assumptions that women aren’t able to take care of themselves and men are obligated to take care of everyone else without recognition because of the context of the movie the image is from.
Apparently not…
It might have been - who knows.
We’ll keep this up this time but in the future please avoid reactionary content. Thank you
I’m asking because I’m genuinely interested in understanding, it’s the first time I stumbled uppon the word “reactionary content” so I had a look what it means https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactionary which in this context probably means:
In popular usage, reactionary refers to a strong traditionalist conservative political perspective of a person opposed to social, political, and economic change
Is the reactionism here in this meme that it through comedy tries to ridicule the “strong and independent woman” and thus promotes a political perspective of the patriarchy? Or am I now reading too much into it?
That’s basically it yeah
Congratulations, you have met a communist. This mod sounds almost like a satire of socialist thought-police.

Everyone gets to post one reactionary meme, please choose carefully!

Well, one can interpret the meme many ways, including reactionary. I agree with the view @snooggums@kbin.social presented.
This isn’t reactionary though.
Yasss, slay king
How about global supply chains for food and clothes? How about the social systems such as healthcare and education? How about infrastructure like the internet or roads? Does each “independent” man do it all on their own?
