By now, likely everyone in the Manosphere has heard about the attention MRAEdmonton garnered when they countered the “Don’t Be That Guy” rape posters with their own “Don’t Be That Girl” ones.

Personally, I love the posters, but what I want to talk about today is the original campaign, designed to teach men not to commit sexual assault. On the surface, the original posters appear innocuous enough. No, obviously, you should not be having sex with a woman so drunk she is passed out face down on the couch with her ass in the air.
No, you should not even think of having sex with a woman who is staggering around the men’s bathroom.
No, you should not be taking off your pants to fuck a chick passed out cold with an empty beer glass at her side and several more stacked on the bedside table.
Obviously, helping a drunk woman home does not entitle you to sex.
And in what is going to come as SHOCKING news to everyone, if someone doesn’t want to have sex with you, you should not have sex with them. I’ll give you a while to process that information, because I’m sure that until this clever campaign came along, you were all busy screwing comatose girls at parties and gleefully hailing cabs so you could help ladies home and then rape them.
Tsk tsk.
Bad boys.
I think I have found a way to illustrate just how offensive these campaigns are, and what the real intention behind them happens to be.
Look at this: the bike theft capital of the world is none other than Toronto, Canada.
http://dirtydawgs.livejournal.com/28898.html
Most of the stolen bikes are never recovered, with the bulk of bikes going to China and Jamaica. Jamaica has quite a few black folks, no? So it must be black folks stealing the bikes, right? That right there is what you call LOGIC. Stolen bikes go to Jamaica, Jamaica has a lot of black people, black people must be thieves! Men like to have sex with women, sex with a woman against her will is rape, men must be rapists!
Don’t worry. You’ll get the hang of it.
Let’s say the Toronto Police decide to tackle this epidemic of bike thievery by creating a poster campaign: Don’t Be That Black Guy.
Just because you can pick the lock doesn’t mean you’re allowed to steal the bike. Don’t Be That Black Guy.
Just because she left her bike outside the coffee shop for five minutes doesn’t mean you can steal it. Don’t Be That Black Guy.
Just because it’s easy to jump the fence into the backyard doesn’t mean you can steal that bike. Don’t Be That Black Guy.
And hey, why stop there? There are so many crimes we could address by vilifying an entire group of people!
Just because you found a wallet doesn’t mean you get to take all the cash before you return it. Don’t Be That Jewish Guy.
Just because you own both a pressure cooker and some ball bearings doesn’t mean you can build a bomb and kill people with it. Don’t Be That Muslim Guy.
Just because you found a stray cat doesn’t mean you can kill it and add it to the menu. Don’t Be That Chinese Guy.
Just because you have allergy pills with pseudoephedrine and some hydrogen chloride lying around doesn’t mean you should cook a batch of crystal meth. Don’t be that Latino Guy.
I could go on, but surely it’s clear that posters asking men not to be that guy, you know the rapist guy, will be just as effective as posters asking black guys not to be thieves. And why are these posters not effective?
MOST MEN AREN’T RAPISTS
MOST BLACK MEN AREN’T THIEVES
MOST CHINESE MEN DON’T EAT CATS
MOST LATINO MEN ARE NOT DRUG DEALERS
MOST MUSLIMS DON’T BUILD BOMBS
And the ones that DO? They don’t give a fuck about your stupid posters. They’re risking their lives and freedom and their livelihoods. A police officer with a gun might stop them. Some jackass poster won’t.
What the posters accomplish is to teach men they are natural born rapists. And to teach women to fear and mistrust men.
To hate them.
All men. It’s a hate campaign. There is no other word for it. Does this look familiar?
Posters played a key role in convincing the German population that Jews were evil, scary, bad, some “thing” you should hate. And we know how that turned out, don’t we? Don’t Be That Guy is hate speech, pure and simple. And the more voices that call it out for what it is, the sooner we can expose the real aims of women’s groups that promote these campaigns. They’re the new Nazis. Sound harsh? Just too much to swallow? Think comparing rape campaigns to Jewish propaganda is a false comparison? You might want to think again. Silence is what makes these campaigns possible. You may have other things to say about these posters, but say them you must.
Don’t be that guy.
Lots of love,
JB
CORRECTIONS:
In news that will come as no surprise to my critics, everything you read on this blog is a first draft. I might go back and correct typos, but I have never gone back and done a re-write on any post. This post has three major errors that I want to correct, with the caveat that the errors were the result of my first draft goes up policy.
1. A commenter who calls himself Black Yoda at AVfM has quite rightly pointed out that I have left out one major group in my play on racial stereotypes: white guys. Allow me to correct that casually racist oversight:
Just because you have a five iron doesn’t make the park your green.
Don’t Be That White Guy
2. My list of what people AREN’T has omitted the statement that MOST JEWISH GUYS AREN’T OBSESSED WITH MONEY.
3. My comparison of the posters to Nazism has a glaring error in that I referred to the Nazi era posters as “Jewish propaganda”. The correct words would either be “anti-Jewish” or “Nazi”.
Thanks for keeping me on my toes, readers! Don’t hesitate to call me out on blatant oversights or errors.

During the second world was what is now known as the CIA was called the OSS. When Germany surrendered in 1945 this organization captured as much Nazi technology and information as they possibly could which included the effective methods the Nazi party employed their propaganda. They possessed Goebble’s entire playbook. When the second wave of feminism began this bullshit in the late sixties Gloria Steinem was an agent with the CIA and the whole feminist propaganda campaign was funded by banking elite to put the other half of the population to work to tax them among other things such as culling of the population in the west. The CIA is not owned by the federal government, The CIA is owned and funded by these same banker assholes and they have used Joseph Goebbles playbook to quite some effect. Your right JB, these damn hate posters are right out of Nazi ideology. The parallels between feminist ideas and Nazism are unmistakable and are not a coincidence.
I do find it ironic though that that same sources of finance for this feminist “rape culture” horse shit along with just about every other femitard propaganda also funds or owns much of the music industry, the fashion industry, Hollywood, and yep, the hardcore porn industry which sites such as facial abuse and ghetto gaggers make much profit. These are sites that depict on camera forced sex in the same way Max Hardcore does and would not recommend checking them out unless you have the stomach for it. But bring that up to these hate monger feminuts and all will be denied. Feminists will also never admit to the fact that they have at times used sex to sell feminism. Feminists with their brainwashing and indoctrination will never accept or by any means admit to what “useful idiots” they have been used by the banking elite.
I also love how they foam at the mouth when their shit is handed back to them such as the “Don’t be that feminist” posters.

Rape is an interesting issue for me. I was held at knifepoint, once, and told that if I screamed, my throat would be cut out of my neck. I have been fondled in my bed, while I was sleeping, by an ex that I had allowed to sleep on my sofa. Neither occasion involved alcohol. And I make such a crap victim that I have never been raped. I screamed bloody fucking murder and I took the assailants knife from him and he ran like hell. And my ex, who is mentally ill, damn well knows that he won’t ever be trusted or welcome in my home again, and the matter was solved with that simple decree. My father spent a little time with me, teaching me to defend myself, but not an excessive amount befpre the whole prison thing. I am not particularly brawny or aggressive. And frankly, at certain times of my life, I have been a scantily clad drunken nymphpmaniac skilled only in exercising crap judgement and falling asleep in men’s dorm bathrooms.

For some reason feminists always remain completely blind to how hateful these are TO WOMEN. I’m sure they’re having martinis over being assholes to men, but they don’t seem to realize that their campaign basically says that women don’t need to make safe choices and have no accountability at all.

In my experience, women ARE more sexually aggressive than men.
I can tell you I’ve never forced a woman to have sex with me, I have been forced by my ex-wife to have sex with her. It wasn’t a forcible rape in the sense that I could have stopped her, but it would damn well count to feminists if I were the woman and she the man, in the sense that she was drunk, kept insisting that she wanted sex, and eventually it happened when she climbed on top of me and I just did it to get it over with rather than have to keep fighting off her advances. (I was sick and extremely tired at the time, lest anyone wonder why I was so not up for sex at that moment).
Yeah, a sample size of one is clearly not much to worry about, but just the fact that if I tell that story to most people, it’s considered me complaining about nothing, but if you reversed the genders the general consensus would be that the guy was being an abusive ass**** just shows how far we have to go.

I was coerced into having sex I didn’t want by wearing down my objections and making it less objectionable to have it than to keep fighting. It was distasteful and annoying, but hardly the most problematic thing in that marriage, or in truth, even in a marriage if it had been a healthy one.
And nevertheless, I have never pushed and continued to push for sex after a woman has made it clear that she’s not interested, which means again that in my experience, women are more pushy about sex than men are (where men = me and women = the women I’ve been with.)
