Or better still, don’t let them have an echo chamber that intimidates and silences women and men who are tired of being intimidated and silenced!

I had a guy talking about how bad people get paid lots of money to play sports and he doesn’t think their behavior should be rewarded while I was cutting his hair.
“Congratulations on your white penis” will now be my go-to response to MRAs, racists, people who don’t understand that rape culture is a thing, my uncle, transphobes....
I love him and his sexy spider hands!
Look, dudes, it’s coming from a dude! You can believe it now!
The youtube comments - lawwwd! Lots of butthurt white penis owning people in the comments, especially of the gamergate variety. It actually surprises me to see so many of the butthurt gamergaters/white penis havers saying “I usually love your show” - I mean, John Oliver has always been a pretty outspoken liberal and…
MRAs: free speech is our RIGHT!!!1! policing free speech is the MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER!!
Whatever you do, don’t read the comments at Gizmodo.
Some drunk dude threatened to rape me when I was walking down the street a while back and when I posted it on Facebook (in a post about street harassment in general) , several of my old high school teachers told me that I should move away from Boston. I was like, they will not run me out.
I hope your husband realizes he wasn’t any better in terms of behavior than the MRAs by trying to shuttle you off and shush you “for your protection”.
Yeah maybe don’t go there? The youtube page is filled with commenters whining: “but but what about men?” Fucking depressing. I know I know it’s youtube but my god, it’s exhausting.
HBOGo. But, as noted, nearly all the meaty bits get posted to their youtube channel by the Monday after. Oh, and the actors in the parody ad were Rob Huebel and Colin Hanks.
I’ve had some very vile and disturbing things said to me recently on Gawker and Salon due to some very benign discussions...not controversial topics at all. My husband said I should stop participating in online discussions because of this. Hard to believe that the solution was I stop talking...I mean, really? Didn’t…
It’s about time someone blew the lid off our top secret conspiracy to make society suck less.
My father does the same fucking thing. Of course when I disagree with his views which are just barely veiled misogyny, I'm attacking him and he's entitled to his views. He's entitled, but I don't think he understands the difference between a disagreement and an attack 😡
It would be awesome if he responded to that by actually doing a segment on “feminist propaganda” in which he mocks all of the idiots who consider the idea that women are human beings deserving of equal rights to be propaganda.
A) Note to self: check to see if Last Week Tonight is on Hulu so I can actually watch it on the reg
I foolishly read this over on gizmodo. Wow, did that turn into a “but what about the men” conversation quickly.
My husband got really freaked out when he saw what some MRA types wrote to me after I commented on an editorial about domestic violence. Of course he wanted me to stop commenting about stuff online, so I had to do the whole “I will not be silenced” speech. But seriously, make that shit a crime already.
I love me some John Oliver.
