Maybe he isn't listening at the moment? Kinda like how some people put their sunglasses on top of their head when they aren't using them.

You're no fun anymore.

Have I ever been fun?
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:

Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Well, there was that one night where you got drunk and woke up wearing women's lingerie in a barn next to a very unsatisfied sheep...

Quite simple actually. The artist is confused because some people say that they are transgender or genderqueer etc. and the artist believes this means that they have "chosen" to be transgender rather than being born as one. (Kinda like many of those insults about Caitlyn Jenner that have been on the net recently. Note that the transwoman has been drawn to look like a guy, beard and all...) Meanwhile we have people who claim that gender is just a social construct and others who say that they didn't "choose to be women" and should not be punished simply for being a woman. (I assume that this refers to things like the wage cap and other inequalities.)

Finally, we have all those writings on the woman in the middle: The artist thinks that it is kinda confusing that women dress to make themselves look sexy but still demand that no one should have sex with them unless they consent to it. And yes, that is what the artist's argument boils down to. "If she didn't want to get raped why did she dress so provocatively? If women don't want men to stare at them why won't they wear a burgha or something?"

And I believe the cartoonist is under the impression that all gender-leftists (for lack of a better term) are a hive mind and therefore all these people with their different stances are self-contradictory or something.

I'm also getting a potential allusion to the old Same sex is a lifestyle choice, gays deny that, but oh lookie here, they say gender is a choice, so hypocrite much. Derp.

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

This is what the artist is trying to convey. The assumption that all SJWs (for lack of a better term) follow the same beliefs and are thus contradicting themselves. When everyone knows the real truth is that there are /two/ hive minds, obviously. And that they are at war with each other.

P.S.: If I wasn't on mobile, I would make those last two sentences blue.

i wouldn't've bothered with blueing the last line, honestly. sjw's tear into each other as often as they tear into bigots.

Wow, it's almost like "SJW" covers enough ideological groups so as to be completely meaningless as a descriptor or something.

it's less an ideological group, and more of a (toxic) mindset, wouldn't you say?

Indeed. When actually there are ridiculously bloody feuds between people over these sort of different conceptions of gender (e.g. TERFs vs trans people).

Which are the "two hive minds" I was referring to, yes. TERFs and Tumblr Transgenders (different from normal transgender people, obviously)

Nah. At least, not in my mind. In my mind, you're "Tumblr Transgender" if you use words like "genderpunk", "juxera", or "orbself". Not just being agender.
