Theatre Under Fire for Decision to Cancel Screening of MRA Doc The Red Pill
Ottawa Citizen ^ | December 3, 2016 | Susana Mas

The Mayfair movie theatre is defending its decision to cancel a private screening of The Red Pill, a documentary about men’s rights activists, following complaints from its sponsors.

The Red Pill was made by Cassie Jaye, a self-described feminist and award-winning documentary filmmaker, who critics say takes a surprising and mostly sympathetic look at men’s rights activists whom many have described as nothing more than woman-bashers.

Because they don’t want the truth about how poorly men are treated to be shown the light of day.

I hope men don’t rely on victimhood as a defense. It gets pathetic if men depend on a feminist to protect them.

Men should proudly go on offense.

Prostate cancer kills more men than breast cancer kills women. Nobody knows when prostate cancer awareness month is but they sure can tell you about breast cancer awareness month. Prostate cancer awareness month is September along with child cancer awareness, same month. Prostate Cancer Awareness Month; (Light blue ribbon). Ever see one? (reason I write is because two men in my family have it). See also:http://daysofyear.com/national-prostate-cancer-awareness-month/ - but you say one word about any other month and see how the women’s groups would come down on you like a ton of bricks.

Jenny C. Yip Psy.D. explains the RED vs the BlUE pill.

If you are one of the millions of people who have seen The Matrix, then you would remember that Neo was given a choice to take either the red pill — which would open his eyes to reality, or the blue pill — which would keep him living behind rose-colored lenses.

“I hope men don’t rely on victimhood as a defense. It gets pathetic if men depend on a feminist to protect them.”

Such shaming tactics don’t work on men anymore once they have taken the red pill.

As for the filmmaker, she is not a feminist anymore. She was when she started making the film, hoping to “expose” the MRAs as evil misogynists. After actually interviewing them, she said “I no longer call myself a feminist”.

Liberals have also aggressively attacked conservative women because in their identity politics, conservative women aren’t really women but evil apostates to be destroyed.

That’s shaming language right there. Feminists rely on being victims, why can’t men do the same thing?

>>>Men should proudly go on offense.<<<

Please elaborate how.

“Please elaborate how.”

The first step is to realize we are under attack.

The second is to recognize that 90% of civilization was built by men - science, technology, politics, philosophy, exploration... - you name it. In other words, men are the stronger and smarter sex and the risk takers.

The third is to stop getting guilted and shamed into submission. Men have far more to be proud than to be ashamed of, as indicated above.

Trump has shown how to do it the way he reacted to Kelly in the first debate when she right off the bat tried to shame him with her question about how he treated women. He didn’t apologize, he attacked... and he won.

He also showed us how to go after the media, the propaganda organs run by the leftists, feminists and metrosexuals that want to control our opinion and speech. He’s taken a wrecking ball to them, gotten in their faces, called them what they are - lying, dishonest, corrupt bastard.

It also takes organization. Men have to organize so they can take collective action against their enemies. We are very late in that. The left has shown what can be done with activism, with organized boycotts, with pressure groups. We have to use Alinsky’s rules for our benefit. We need our own community organizers and leaders to focus our power. Trump is setting an example.

Up until now we’ve been very passive and have been “taking it”, appeasing, knuckling under because men did have a lot of power and wealth and there was a sense of fairness in sharing that. But as it so often happens when you appease someone, eventually they become arrogant and want everything you got, including your dignity. This is in perfect display in Sweden where the feminists that now run the place have turned men into eunuchs, servile castrati.

Ironically the power vacuum left by the swedish castrati is being filled by Mulsim men that the feminists themselves are importing. Quite a delicious irony.

Here’s the way Milo goes after feminists. Ironic that a gay guy is a leading defender of straight men.

Men, especially white men, have been more timid than not my entire life (age 46). From saying “yes dear” at home to allowing themselves to be actively discriminated against in the name of fairness, I have always been amazed at how this group has been portrayed. Even the dopey sitcoms are offensive to men.

But in real life situations, over and over I see the guys choose the path of least resistance. They prefer it to conflict. Even the most basic things guys are afraid to say aloud.

Ask a single guy if he would prefer to not to date a single mother? Or a married guy if his wife got fat, would that bother him. You really don’t know how they would answer. Because that all depends on who is around. If it’s just a couple guys the answer will be one way. If it’s in mixed company the answer will be another way.

I find it refreshing when I hear a guy who will just speak his mind and say this is my opinion when he knows it’s politically incorrect. Maybe going the way of Milo is the answer I dunno. But it would only work if most guys did it. Otherwise the few guys who did that would get hammered by all the white knights.

“Even the dopey sitcoms are offensive to men.”

And let’s not forget the commercials - they’re even worse - the smart ones are the blacks and the women - white men are the idiots and butts of jokes.

“Maybe going the way of Milo is the answer I dunno. But it would only work if most guys did it. Otherwise the few guys who did that would get hammered by all the white knights.”

That’s why a leader who is not afraid is necessary to coalesce the individuals into an army. That’s what Trump was able to do, that’s why he had tens of thousands of screaming fans at his rallies. Finally, someone who gave them a voice, who understood them, who was one of them but had the courage, the clout, the power that they didn’t have.

And for him doing so, they returned the favor and gave him power.

But even without a leader, men and white people can start individually to fight back. In your interactions with others never knuckle under to political correctness, stand up to them.

Also stop watching the boob tube. Turn it off, don’t contribute to their bottom line, avoid their sponsors. Think what would happen if all conservatives stopped watching TV.

Instead of getting depressed by watching that crap get intellectually armed and uplifted by watching youtube channels like these...Courages people who speak the truth, unafraid of the PC police...
