DOGE And The Gender Wars

Reliance on the blue-collar male, eh?

The Internet in the last few years has become utterly unhinged in terms of “takes,” with only a modicum of sense and rationality peeking through those clouds. I would say that happened at some intersection of COVID, three Trump elections, #MeToo, and the Hawk Tuah phenom of becoming oddly wealthy and moving to Los Angeles based on one clip of you. I may be mistaken on my history here, but I believe the Internet was initially developed as both a security tool and a chance for far-flung professors to collaborate with each other. Decades on, it’s basically a way for disgruntled people of both genders to dunk on the other gender, give or take. Remember this “out of my league” story?

Here is a new post from Cartoons Hate Her, with the salacious title of “Is DOGE About Sex?” If you cannot immediately follow the bouncing ball, and have not looked at the screenshot I used in this post, basically the idea is that DOGE is a way to eliminate cushy “email jobs” — news flash: many, many, many white-collar jobs are now “email jobs” — and because the belief among chronically-online male chuds is that email jobs are 99% female, basically Elon has hacked the birth-rate problem. Women will get fired, and then they will need real men with purpose, so they will turn to blue-collar guys and drop their skirts.
