Popeye

The oppressors

Militant feminist Adria Richards is an afro-american tech blogger, who, some time last Thursday, caused a shit storm on the internet over a dick joke, resulting in termination from her job.

In March 2013 some cool dudes were chatting among themselves at a Python conference, apparently seated behind Ms. Richards, when suddenly the unthinkable happened: an innuendo made in passing using the word "dongle" floated outside of the conversation and into the ears of our poor victim. She was basically raped by the words and had to frantically claw for help, from anywhere, so she did the only thing she could. Instead of turning around and giving them a raised eyebrow, or even saying anything to them, she took a picture of her oppressors and without hesitation tweeted it to the conference organizers claiming that it violated her rights as a girl on the internet. The two men were escorted out, and one of the dudes actually got fired.

Upon hearing this, Reddit immediately ceased jerking off to My Little Pony, put on their battle-fedoras, and hit Adria with their best lines about misandry. /b/ decided to actually do more than whine and commenced standard operating procedures. Within 48 hours, Adria was fired. GG

	“	like Popeye, I couldn’t “stands it no more” because of what happened.	„
	—Adria Richards

Adria's defense is that unless her oppressors were publicly shamed for having a juvenile sense of humor, dick and fart jokes would continue and no girl would ever want to be a programmer again because those things are gross and girls need special treatment when it comes to public speech and never themselves make men uncomfortable with sexual jokes or fart. The unintended consequences of such hypersensitivity is of course a backlash from the lonely virgins that are predominant in the tech industry in the first place for the very reason Adria would like to shame them: they are socially retarded.

Reactions

Feminist reaction.

The entire clusterfuck resulted in a number of conclusions from the internet:

• Militant feminism is real, and likens overhearing a 7th grade joke to getting an asspat in the breakroom.
• Those two dudes can and should sue the shit out of her
• Actual feminists hate this lady for galvanizing feminist stereotypes
• Misogyny is real, and is fueled by using your cunt to get people fired based on your misapprehension

Concurrently, the internet was expressing concern regarding rape culture cushioning the Steubenville rapists (see OpRollRedRoll), so there was much stagnant outrage left over from the news cycle to spill over into this issue. It's a little known fact that the glorification of violence and chauvinism present in high-school football culture is also present within computer club meetings, and failing to acknowledge this makes you a sexist deserving of castration.
