"Filming for the third season of Smatouha Minni (You Heard It From Me), a feminist series in Arabic, the actor is in a padded muscle suit, wearing a slicked-back black wig and beard."
"'If your wife asks you to change the diapers, you should change her,' the Palestinian-Jordanian barks, mimicking an aggrieved self-help podcaster. An hour later, she is slouched in a hoodie, shisha pipe in one hand and a gaming console in the other, shouting: 'Mama, I’m hungry. Can you make me a sandwich?' The sketches are parodies of a misogynist narrative gaining traction in the region. 'Patriarchal attitudes have always existed,' says Amanda Abou Abdallah, the Lebanese founder, co-writer and director of Smatouha Minni. 'But what we’re seeing now is a re-intensification – a backlash against women’s growing participation, independence and public voice, especially online.'
Chief among the ideologies circulating is the so-called 'red pill' theory, popularised by figures such as Andrew Tate, whose influence in the region intensified after his conversion to Islam in late 2022. The doctrine frames men as victims of a feminist, 'gynocentric; social order and urges them to reclaim power through dominance...."

Feminism. Diversity? Class-disordered ideologies are guardians of karmic disbelief.
Islamists and Western feminists are equally obnoxious and destructive. Pick your poison.
Who’s going to do the hit show that parodies the patriarchy triggered daily on this blog?
Parodies Islam but can’t say that

I was under the impression Western Feminists approved of the Islamic patriarchy. They are very silent when it comes to the defense of women in the Middle East.
Even here at home. Nut job Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flangagan word an ass kissing hijab when she visited the Karmel Somali Market in Minneapolis to defend the billions in Somali fraud.
Western civilization has much to learn from people named Amanda Abou Abdallah. I hope you're all taking notes.
Jack Benny AI in 2026: "The diapers or your wife!"
If it weren't for bashing men, what would women talk about?
And if it weren't for bashing Muslims, what would half the commenters here talk about?
Imagine this website in Germany in the 1930s and what the comment thread would look like.
“Islamists and Western feminists are equally obnoxious and destructive. Pick your poison.”
with similar goals but for opposite sexes
not exactly the same but close - that’s something to think about
Like nazis and communists for similar reasons
So will this stuff feminize the Muslims and make them more docile or will it make even more men willing to strap on suicide vests?
..."You Heard It From Me – uses satire to confront misogynistic attitudes" (The Guardian)....."
Confront, or validate? And are there any references to religion? Or would that be frowned upon?
Whatever the Guardian/NYTs Liberals believe in the current year is the always the most moral, reasonable, and attractive thing. Why we don't even have a label for it, its just "The right thing". So when other cultures adopt it, well good for them. They're thinking correctly.
I find the smugness and the jargon annoying. And what the fuck does "Misoygnist" even mean? I hate these Goddamn leftwing cant words that can stand for 20 different things.
I always find it incredible that the Rightwing never picks up on the fact that the liberal/left always calls someone they don't like an "-ist" and what the say an "-ism". Does the Dumbo Right even pick up on it? It doesn't seem so. They're so blind to the use of language and its effect, they think everyone else is the same. And they're not.
The guardian making a fuss about anything tells you its fake
So what is the deal? After all these years we now have an Abu Bunker sitcom? Abu is going down to the police station to demand that the guy who stole his catalytic converter have his hand cut off “Allah knows he will have to work harder with the saw in his mouth!” A barrel of laughs.
But the thing about Archie Bunker is that everyone agreed with him. He was funny, so when Abu reminisces , “it made me proud, like back in Tel Aviv when I blew up that bus!” everyone will laugh.
The line about changing your wife is pretty good.
Abu Bunker says, “if my fafallah is not here in 2 minutes your camel head is going to be stuck in your camel toe!” But that may be more like Abu Jefferson.
Abu Bunker has a halal meathead son in law who is the leader of the Palestine front at Columbia, “Meathead! Why have you not been beating my daughter!”
Oh yeah. Andrew Tate is entirely responsible for centuries of the Califate. I bet they don't even mention Islam. File under Handmaid's Tale.
