But is this chick a troll account? This is where the insane really starts.

Excellent points. The presence of this book shows why people assumed the hashtag was real.

Regarding the research... According to father's rights advocate/lawyer Glenn Sacks:

"...the families she studied were those who volunteered to have their lives intimately examined over a multi-year period—a self-selected sample not representative of the average fatherless family. Also, Drexler’s research suffers from confirmatory bias. Drexler is a passionate advocate for single and lesbian mothers. She personally conducted interviews of several dozen single and lesbian mothers and their sons in order to examine their family lives and—no surprise—found them to her liking. But while Raising Boys praises father-absent households for instilling in boys many intangible, difficult-to-measure qualities, objective measures of child well-being belie Drexler’s rose-colored image of fatherless families."

Basically, "I believe this is true, so I'm going to find evidence that supports my belief." Hooray for the confirmation bias!

http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/31130549 <---it'll 404 soon so excuse the dead link if it doesn't work.

does anyone browse /pol/ ? they seem to be the exact same things we believe, but due to its anonymity, it's a lot more radical. Very interesting, this hashtag took me there. The one post that mentions T. S. Eliot's the Hollow men is absolutely frightening.

Feminists may not have started it, but they are sure running with it. Haha.

I have a private "Thunder Cunts" list on Twitter that I use to keep up with Twitter feminists. When the #EndFathersDay backlash started, most them were surprisingly calm and quiet. The only ones I saw address it directly before Inquisitr News' damage control piece was posted and pined to the top of the hashtag were @thetrudz and @biyiat.

:fattitude:

It is a troll account. I remember that name from the NotYourAsianSidekick HT.

4chan rules the internet. Don't fuck with 4chan.

Sidenote - the combined social media power of RVF is probably strong enough to pull something like this off if we were co-ordinated and kept it out of the public forum. Just putting that out there.

Ya'll know how I feel about a good trolling:

I was just about to mention this.

I've suspected that feminists are using a form of strategic trolling to trend their hashtags and get attention, and they likely plan their moves behind closed doors using video chat and text messages. We need a private forum where we can speak freely. Imagine how much better this would have been if no one had screenshots of /pol/ to use for their "See! More white cishet MRA hate!!!" articles.

I was hoping some LGBTQYWRT would write some embarrassing articles about this. They didn't disappoint.

What is 4chan? I went there and googled and don't understand it.

Protip: Fathers day (if you have kids) is the day the ex sluts do their restart texts

^ Ya can someone explain how 4chan works

 

[Slick Shimmer]

There's a lot to cover, but it's a staging ground for almost everything interesting on the Internet.

 

[cooledcannon]

It was started by an account named "tasha polwright" =/pol/ was right.

How does Tasha Polwright sound like /pol/ was right? Is there something im not getting? I only get the Polwright part but not the Tasha part.

Either this is a real feminist, or it's one of the best trolls ever.

"Her" posts and bio are perfect mockery.

The Marxism reference in her bio means its a troll.
But there's some excellent stuff there.

But a lot of feminists do describe themselves as Marxists. That's what makes it so perfect.

4chan is an anonymous image board infamous for hacking and trolling aswell as its politically uncorrect and unsavory content on several pages. Mainly /b/. Although it has others, such as /pol/, /fit/, /pony/ etc.

Also starting these fake trends, bikini bridge for example.

"Nathan Poe created Poe’s Law in 2005 after spending time on christianforums.com debating the concept of creationism. Poe’s Law states:

Without a blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of extremism or fundamentalism that someone won’t mistake for the real thing."
