Men's Rights Memes Episode Eight: The Wizard of What the Fuck

Hello and welcome to Men's Rights Memes, the show where I examine the mad ramblings of people with the intellectual capacity of pond scum. Okay, okay, I'm sorry. Perhaps that was over the line. I apologize to pond scum for the unflattering comparison.

Without further ado, here's this episode's offending image.

Oh, boy. I knew that the Men's Rights Movement had a soft spot for idiotic conspiracy theories, but this is a new low, even for them. Yes, apparently the Wizard of Oz is an insidious piece of evil feminist propaganda because...shut up. I don't even know where the hell to begin with this thing. It's just so goddamned baffling.

 I suppose it's best to start by pointing out the fact that no one at A Voice for Men, the site I found this meme on, has even even seen the movie. There is no possible way that you could watch the Wizard of Oz and come away thinking that Dorothy's companions are actually heartless, stupid, and cowardly. The entire fucking point of the film (and the book it's based on, but we all know that most MRAs think reading is for faggots,) is that the characters had already overcome their flaws. The titular Wizard, who is not actually a magical man, could only offer them tokens that reinforce that fact. (a diploma, a clock in the shape of a heart, and the Medal of Honor, respectively). The objects were symbols, meant to point out that the men were already the best versions of themselves. The gifts the Wizard gave them were never actually necessary. It's all about finding your inner self esteem and externalizing it to accomplish great feats.

Maybe do your research before you cook up yet another example of the feminist cabal secretly running the world. This from the same people who use bullshit 'evolutionary psychology to prove that women are naturally weaker than men. Can somebody please tell me how those two ideas are even remotely compatible? I'm just dying to know.
