    I doubt Greta is “radicalizing” them. Simple observation combined with common sense will do that all on its own.

    Since when is legal equality, capacity to make life choices, and education “radicalizing”?

    The entire flow of this item is bizarre.

    Cheesus. “Radicalized” by Greta Thunberg, who never did or (afaik) even considered violent action. Talk about fragile masculinity.

    Who is this Rowan Pilling, what more nonsense did he they write under this headline? I need a good laugh with my coffee.

    I was surprised to learn that Rowan Pelling is a woman. Then I found out she wrote for the Daily Mail at one time, and it all came into view.

    The manosphere is much more likely to try and enslave these women using headlines like this as justification.

    Oh no! The wimminz are gonna want to make their own decisions about their lives instead of allowing us to be in charge!

    (If you think that way, you are a pathetic tiny dick manchild. Grow the fuck up.)

    Inspired by the 4B movement in South Korea after overturning roe v wade. If society and government is taking away our rights now, the social contract is broken

    Given the surrealist nature of The Tick, I can imagine him saying

    I am very proud of our angry little women

    But I can’t imagine The Tick making it about politics. So one of two things is true. Either

    A) The Tick never said that. In which case I’m confused how you read this story/headline, and immediately assosiated it with The Tick.

    Or

    B) There’s some episode where “leftie” doesn’t pertain to politics, and you’re using the quote for the meme, although out of context.

    So I guess my question is, which episode is this from? I grew up on The Tick, and I don’t remember this line. I’m less versed in the comics. Is it from the comic, even though this is a screenshot from the 1995 animated show?

      It’s actually

      C) I didn’t make it myself AND likely

      D) The Tick is just there because whomever made it happens to like him and/or consider the pose fitting for being proud of someone or something 🤷🏻

        Oddly enough, saying quirky things is kinda The Tick’s whole thing.

        So, from that petspective, they probably picked the best superhero.
