Well, Christmas is on the horizon.

So I'm thinking that you can't do better than The Manliest Man Gift Set Known To Man.

For the menfolx.

Munroe Bergdorf again
BeMoreMagdalen · 22/09/2019 20:29

I am fairly sure that this is an unrelated media outfit,not the aftershave manufacturer. But life could be weirder, I guess.

I mean, Bergdorf does genuinely seem to believe that if women say no to Bergdorf, they actually want to kill Bergdorf. That's a weird enough conclusion to be repeatedly highlighting for it's sheer batshittery.

BernardBlacksWineIceLolly · 22/09/2019 20:29

i don't think it's the aftershave people ('splash it on'), I think it's some french company that basically makes videos for facebook

www.facebook.com/facebookmedia/blog/brut-shares-how-they-went-from-0-to-80-million-monthly-video-views-in-just-six-months

it reads to me like someone paid them to make that video

in fact it's reminding me of ben elton's book about people being manipulated by social media, which i've just finished

BernardBlacksWineIceLolly · 22/09/2019 20:32

they say they target millenials

so someone really wants millenials to believe their mums are eeevil and we should totes be sharing the ladies loos with males

Popchyk · 22/09/2019 20:35

"I am fairly sure that this is an unrelated media outfit,not the aftershave manufacturer".

Well, that is disappointing.

Gonna cancel the gift set now.

terryleather · 22/09/2019 20:35

Anyone would think it was only transgender people (well, let's face it, transwomen) who suffer.

It's not that they're the only people who suffer, it's that they're the only people that matter...

NotTerfNorCis · 22/09/2019 20:44

Wow! Halfway through so far. What hateful propaganda! Feminists portrayed by an angry, ugly woman with a microphone. Mumsnet accused of stirring hate. Glinner dragged in because of the vexatious complaint made against him. And now linking feminism to the far right!

Datun · 22/09/2019 20:46

Bore off Bergdorf. Splash it on all over elsewhere.

BernardBlacksWineIceLolly · 22/09/2019 20:51

i think brut are an advertising agency basically

someone paid them to make this. i'd love to know who

BeMoreMagdalen · 22/09/2019 20:51

Please, let's not lose sight of the final flourish - it ends with Bergdorf's fear of feminists committing genocide. I really think we need to grasp that. Maybe Janice Turner, who is actually quoted in it, might feel that she has some redress, given that being accused of planning a genocide is quite the accusation...

BernardBlacksWineIceLolly · 22/09/2019 20:53

ugh. this makes me hate facebook even more that the busy interface, slow response times and mountains of crap posted by people

i hate being manipulated, and this stuff pops up in people's feeds with the express intention of manipulating them

HerFemaleness · 22/09/2019 20:57

About half way through MB starts to list the way people like MBself are being 'mistreated'. This includes debates that 'shouldn't be debated' and questions that shouldn't be asked.

That's the whole transgender movement in a nutshell. They've steam rollered in, announced that the definition of woman has changed to something based on their subjective personal feelings. They demand we submit to this new definition and call us misogynistic slurs if we don't comply. And then they try and frame our demands for discussion and our questions about this new ideology as some sort of 'micro-aggression', as if women don't have a legitimate right to be interested in a sudden change to the definition of the term woman and the impact this could have on us as a political class.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 22/09/2019 20:58

Why do I get the feeling that "they're planning to genocide us" is just a way of warming people up for the inevitable "so we should genocide them first instead"?

Rubidium · 22/09/2019 21:07

Genocide? Genocide? I'll tell you what genocide is. The tens of millions of baby girls who have been killed either in sex-seletive abortions or smothered at birth, just for being girls. All those little girls who never got a chance at life. Because of their sex. THAT'S fucking genocide.

But of course if Bergdorf been born in one of those societies where this practice is prevalent, Bergdorf would have been OK. Bergdorf would have been just fine.

BeMoreMagdalen · 22/09/2019 21:15

Kittens, it sounds like conspiracy lunacy, doesn't it? But these are the people who also say 'TERF' with the order to punch one quite often, or post memes of anime characters pointing guns and issuing death threats. Or pictures of women being hanged if they are 'Terfs'. Or who throw punches at women who say no to them.

I'd think you were being dramatic if I hadn't seen all that. Suggest women saying 'no' is tantamount to genocide, we don't need to guess where they take it next. We've seen it, we have the pages and pages of evidence.

PeterRouseTheFleshofMankind · 22/09/2019 21:17

Genocide

Oh. Do. Fuck. Off. Dear.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 22/09/2019 21:18

They're clearly trying to soften the public up to accept some sort of retribution, and they already seem to have given us some strong hints what they'd like that to look like. Though hey, maybe they'll scale it back to just demands that we all be jailed.

Is it me or does MB seem a bit 2017 now? I mean the whole look and attitude, and the fact that they have lost so many great opportunities now by publicly making an utter spoon of themselves.

All a bit yesterday’s news and today’s chip wrapping imho.

PeterRouseTheFleshofMankind · 22/09/2019 21:27

The bit with the ugly old lady screaming down the loud hailer over egged the pudding as well.

As they say..... We see you. You need to at least attempt to hide the misogyny.

Crikey, those comments.

FamilyOfAliens · 22/09/2019 22:03

Funny you should mention 2017, because there was some footage of MB that definitely looked a few feminisation surgeries ago...

I thought that. I wondered how happy Munroe was to have that footage included, what with the thousands Munroe must have spent on cosmetic surgery.
