    My partially face-blind (face myopic?) ass thought that was Gal Gadot for a sec lol. Would’ve been pretty bad to make Genocide Barbie the face of even a MEME about consent and self defense 😄

    Can we not actively advocate for violence in meme form?

    And instead post subtle funny memes where it’s implied while also linking to where women/poc can learn gun safety?

    Mostly because this stuff gets taken down after a while.

      It isn’t violence it is threatening violence to someone who is threatening sexual assault. Women are being advocated to be SAed they should advocate defending themselves

      I see where you’re coming from, but no, just like how everybody was cool with Indiana Jones killing Nazis, we’re all pretty cool with rapists getting killed by their victims.

      Don’t want to get killed by a rape victim? Then don’t rape them. Pretty simple stuff. I’m 36 next month I haven’t accidentally raped anybody even once, so I’m pretty sure you’re fine if you’re not actively trying to prey upon somebody.

      Violence is the only language these people “joking” about “your body, my choice” can understand. If we make it clear that we will fucking kill them if they try to act on that “joke” then it may serve as a deterrent. Too many women are sexually assaulted and raped, and most of their predators get away with it.

      Let’s all stop being so goddamn tolerant. I don’t care if it hurts a rapist’s feelings. If you have a problem with that stance, then I implore you to take a good hard look at what kind of person you are that you would side with a rapist against somebody who would defend themselves against their rapist. Maybe that makes you an accessory to rape, because at that point, you’re worse than complicit, you’re actively supporting rape.

      I didn’t think it’d be such a hot take to say that rapists who get killed while attempting rape got what they had coming to them, but here we are.

          I didn’t think I needed to say it (based on the rest of the comment), but I haven’t intentionally raped anybody either lol. I know, I’m a real hero and champion of the people for never raping anybody. Truly the Jesus of my time. It’s a high bar, yet I somehow clear it every day without even breaking a sweat.

        The rapist in the image is also a Nazi so it’s double cool to joke about it.

        Movie is ministry of ungentlemanly warfare.

    Not going to lie - apart from the cast and visuals I thought the movie was incredibly generic with nothing you wouldn’t have seen before. Generic heist, generic I’ll need a team, generic action and generic conclusion.

    Scene from “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare”, which is just incredibly entertaining…

    But get this… As completely, improbably, unbelievable as the events are, they’re based on a true story… AND… in the true story? Nobody got killed.

    (Insert Guy Ritchie and Jerry Bruckheimer going “WHERE’S THE FUN IN THAT??!?!!”)

      Huh, that’s Cary Elwes. And unlike some other government ministers, he can speak with an English accent.
