Well, here we go again. Another company virtue signalling like someone with epilepsy locked in a room with a strobe light dancing disco. Aren't we brave and stunning? No. Just... just no.
Hasbro has come out with what has to be the dumbest idea I have heard of in quite a long time, but I do have to give them praise in one respect: It certainly has people talking... probably not in the way they'd hoped, though. Ms Monopoly, you can smell the pretension through the screen, can't you? I could end my rant right here, and you would probably have enough information to be properly rubbed the wrong way.
I don't think anyone was wondering how long it would take Feminism TM to infest board games, but here's our answer. Oh, and it's just as horrendous as you think it is. Women get paid more for passing Go in this edition. Because vagina, apparently. I mean, the board at Hasbro probably wants us to think about the mythical Wage Gap, but we're all bored debunking that, aren't we? I mean, talk about a dead horse.
So, anyway, women now get $240 for passing Go and men get $200. Nothing says sit down and shut the fuck up, you insignificant little worm to little boys like paying women more in a game for no fucking reason. Oh, but I'm sure Hasbro fully intends to release a Mr Monopoly n... you mean they don't? You mean Feminists don't want equality? They want to be superior now? I thought Feminism TM was about equality, and if you wanted equality you were a Feminist TM!
Well, this changes everything! Apparently, Feminists are going to bark, snarl, and howl until they get all the power and to hell with men. I had hoped that there would be a leveling of the playing field regarding reproductive rights, personal accountability and responsibility, earnings, etc... but I'm an idealist. Guess I was foolish and naive to believe that Feminists wanted equality... okay, so I didn't believe that any time recently. Years and years ago, maybe. 1990's, perhaps. I've had my eyes opened since then. I know much more about the world.
It's not even a radical feminist ideology, either. This Ms Monopoly, Wage Gap thing is main stream. It's popular culture. I can't believe how many people are actually blind enough to think this is reality. I really can't. The bleating of the sheeple is deafening. Baaaaaaah!
Ladies and Gentlemen, we don't need a board game like this. As a conversation piece, it's not causing the kind of stir Hasbro had hoped for. It's pointing out the injustice and one-sided nature of Feminism TM, and that's all. It will not be well received except by the brainwashed masses, and given only as gag gifts by those of us who are actually awake to the bullshit. It's a shame my father's favorite all time board game is Monopoly, it really is. I'm not going to be buying Hasbro products any time soon. My choice, but then Get Woke, Go Broke will likely pinch them in the purse from many sides.
