Before finishing up I want to quote fellow MRA Tom Voltz who, on hearing of the demise of White Ribbon Australia, had this to say:
Dear White Ribbon,
Fuck you, fuck your executive salaries, fuck your SJW-esque approach, fuck your government funding, fuck your propaganda, fuck your indoctrination of our school children, fuck your hatred of boys and men, fuck you, fuck the horse you rode in on and fuck your grandmother you fucking fuck-fucking fucktards!
Good fucking riddance!
Lots of love,
The MRM
Couldn’t have said it better myself Tom.
