      What? I don’t associate the woman to the message. That’s not a reason I upvoted. It could’ve been a man or a Pokémon for all I care.

        …you don’t associate the words superimposed over the image of a woman with the woman in the picture? What?

        Is it really so hard to believe that an account which is consistently posting misogynistic shit is posting yet another misogynistic post?

          Bold of you to assume the gender of that person in 2026. For all you know it’s a femboy or a trans woman or non-binary man.

          But I guess when you are biased by your misandry, you are bound to think that way.

          First, don’t try to frame the conversation by hastily jumping to conclusions before I explain.

          The word and associations that came to mind when I saw the image and upvoted were not “a woman is saying this, and I know because this is what women do.” What I thought was “a person is being depicted as petty af while pretending to be so classy, and that is so relatable.” Much like I do when I watch a drag queen say some unhinged shit, and then they give a sly smile and fan themselves as if they coudln’t believe that came out of their mouth. It’s campy humor.

          So no, I don’t “associate the words superimposed over the image” because I don’t take memes at face value.

          And I don’t know Mickey or you or your history. But I’ve seen plenty of shrieking on the Fediverse, with a few perpetual keyboard warriors calling anyone they don’t like Nazis to be wary enough of the commenter slinging the allegations.

          So, to recap, I’m not defending anyone. But I also don’t believe your “this is what Lemmy does” is accurate because you’re assuming why people are upvoting, and are framing subsequent conversations around that.

            “Everyone you don’t like is a Nazi”

            “Not everything is misogynistic”

            Can you not hear yourself? You sound just like the MAGA fuckwits I’m used to. These lines you’re using are classic red flags.

            “Keyboard warrior” is another classic. All these lines are used to quell pushback. Be better.

              Be BeTtEr

              How about you start with yourself? All you’ve done so far is accuse people of shit they’re not doing and trying to portray everyone who disagrees as the enemy. You’re a classic case of the Fediverse Mean Girl, the one who picks up a fight over nothing, the one who tries to poison the well, the one who doesn’t consider that people have other points of views. You’re here to sow discord under the guise of trying to help people while simultaneously mistreating those in front of you.

              Find yourself better outlets. Go to therapy. Your behavior is not healthy. It’s paranoid and destructive.

              E: Inb4 more shrieking for calling you a mean girl, Cady. 🤭

          It’s a meme. The image behind the text could be literally anything and it really wouldn’t change much. Could be a fucking minion or goddam bugs bunny. I promise you don’t need to take shitposts so seriously.

            Your argument doesn’t support your conclusion. It could be an image of anything? Exactly. It could be anything but it’s a woman instead.

            The words on the image are classic fucking misogyny. Men have been saying this boomer humor shit since before boomers even existed.

            It’s deliberate. I’ve seen dozens of posts from Mickey7 which are blatantly misogynistic, and here’s another one. I usually don’t say anything but I’m fed up.

            “You don’t have to take this seriously” is another classic misogynistic line that people use to downplay pushback. Lemmy is well known as a place that is hostile to women, and this post is pretty blatant about it.

              Okay well maybe it isn’t even a woman. Perhaps it is a very effeminate man. You don’t really know without asking them.

      If it’s misogynistic to make jokes about stereotypes about women’s verbal abuse tactics, is it misandrist to make jokes about men having small penises? Because I’ve seen plenty of small dick jokes on Lemmy and absolute crickets from you in response to them.

      I read this comment and read every one of your replies.

      Then I considered how long it would take for the argument to play out in real life if the comment thread was the script.

      Then I reconsidered the meme’s subject matter, text, and your username: @[email protected].

      At that point, I couldn’t stop chuckling at the epiphany of the irony.

      Well played, sir/madame. Well played.

            This post isn’t the best example, but I’ve seen this mickey guy say some terrible shit. I think he’s like a chronically online dementia patient old man or something, though.

            The worst thing I can remember, which is what I think of when I come across his username, is the time when he like glorified a rape scene? Or an implied rape or something? I don’t remember exactly, but I do rememeber wondering if he understood the context of the conversation because of how blatantly heinous of a thing he just said was.

            I’ll see if I can find the comment for your benefit.

            Edit: https://lemmy.world/comment/19164524

            yeah, and just take a look at the guy’s history.

            Almost every single meme on Lemmy which is negative will use a depiction of a woman. When a meme has a “good” and a “bad” side the “bad” side is a woman and the “good” side is a man. Your inability to see this as misogynistic encapsulates Lemmy extremely well, actually, and proves my point.
