Perhaps they'll realise how odd it is and delete it.

When Hitler Stole Pink Lipstick?

NecessaryScene · 03/06/2021 20:54

Well, the image itself is from a conservative group

In 2019, a conservative Catholic Spanish group launched a bus campaign against 'Feminazis' with an image of lipstick-wearing Hitler, as a protest against sexist laws on domestic violence, demanding that laws are made gender-neutral.

So the IRR article is using various images from right-wing campaigns:

Illustration from a Hazte Oír bus in Spain calling for the repeal of the 2004 gender violence law and legal protections for the LGBT community.

(The reference to LGBT there seems to be made up - the bus was specifically about the gender violence law).

But then the article itself is complaining about feminists:

Why are some feminists peddling the far-right agenda?

Just as scientific racism centred on supposed biological differences to classify humans in a rigid racial hierarchy, ‘gender critical’ feminists are propelling biological arguments that essentialise sex and its relation to gender identity, contending that sex is purely biological depending on what reproductive organs you have. Their arguments amount to a fundamentalist approach to biology, that labels anyone who doesn’t conform to a normative view of ‘womanhood’ or ‘manhood’ as abnormal, which ultimately increases the vulnerability of an already vulnerable group of people by segregating them as ‘other’.

Something of a confused message. Calling feminists far-right, while also complaining about groups calling feminists far-right (but appropriating that for LGBT somehow), and using their imagery.

Is it Hitler? I assumed it was Goering.

[quote InspiralCoalescenceRingdown]Guess who shared the article?

They have a quote from Mermaids in the notes following the article:

In response to the notion that trans rights are a threat to single-sex spaces, the charity Mermaids UK state there is ‘no evidence we’re aware of, from the police, local authorities, shops, refuges or anywhere else besides, that predators have used the provisions of the Equality Act 2010 to gain access to women’s spaces.’

They may not be aware of it, but it's certainly happening. Although I suppose they could argue that it's not actually the provisions of the EA2010 which have allowed predators to access women's spaces, but the misrepresentation of the Act by organisations such as Mermaids and Stonewall.

If you’d have told me fifteen years ago that one day left wingers — my people — would be arguing that acceptance of scientific facts = far right fundamentalism, I’d never have believed you. Yet here we are.

It’d be nice to be able to laugh about the ludicrousness of it. Maybe someday after this has all fallen out of fashion, we’ll be able to. Confused

GoldenOmber · 03/06/2021 21:13

Gosh, ‘feminazis’, that takes me back. At least the last lot weren’t pretending to be all progressive about calling feminists Nazis I suppose.

Ahhh so when feminism was on the left, the right wing called us Feminazis. But now the left wing, they are also calling us Feminazis.

Ergo Feminism is now officially mainstream centrist. It’s a sign of success when both extremes (left and right) don’t like you.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/06/2021 23:46

I think the original tweet has gone now.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/06/2021 23:49

Oh there are other postings of it. The state of that account!

StrangeLookingParasite · 04/06/2021 01:34

I love this image, so useful.

WoolOfBat · 04/06/2021 04:52

Did Hitler wear lipstick? Does that mean that Hitler was trans?

Is this another historical transwoman?

< misses the point of the thread >

xxyzz · 04/06/2021 08:35

Surely I can't be the only person who looked at that image and assumed that TRAs were claiming Hitler was trans, ie retrospectively transing him. They've literally given him heavy make up and a trans symbol.

Baffled how they think that sending out a strong image implying 'Hitler was trans too!' works well for their cause.

Is it just stupidity, do you think, that makes them come up with these own goals??

FindTheTruth · 04/06/2021 08:44

Well, the image itself is from a conservative group

They're not very bright are they? one stupid thing after another. #mehtoo

Nah, Goering couldn't pull off that shade of lipstick.

Brilliant.
CuntAmongstThePigeons · 04/06/2021 09:47

I had also assumed Hitler was trans. Maybe he was! Who knows. But yes, massive own goal there. Again.

WoolOfBat · 04/06/2021 09:52

I think maybe he was Confused.

I mean, they did tweet the picture of him with the lipstick and the flag and I know how they like to promote historical transwomen....

I just don’t know what biological women have to do with Hitler being trans? Why drag us into it?

Your side, the "gender criticals", produced the image.

You could consider not throwing in your lot with the far right. Just a thought.

...and along comes another of the tribe to prove my point.

2/10. Could do better.

WoolOfBat · 04/06/2021 10:20

I don’t understand, Mermaids tweeted the picture, that is where I saw it Confused
