- promoting a clearer understanding of men's experience -
An artist who is either a white knight feminist propaganda supporter or simply sees an opportunity to cash in on fashionable feminism has changed photos of female celebrities to make them look injured through partner violence. The artist appears to subscribe to the strange morality that violence towards women is the only violence worth being bothered about and that male victims can be conveniently ignored or denied.

NZ teacher Peter Joyce’s settled life was disrupted when a woman he had never met accused him of historic rape. With a unique brand of angry humour, his diary plots the stages of his despair and traces his attempts to find justice in the face of the current insistence that we must “believe the victim”.
Dry Ice is a compelling memoir, but much more. The accusation made the writer a reluctant expert on similar cases from all over the world. He throws light on everything that limits public knowledge of false sexual allegations, from dangerous counselling to flawed statistics, and he exposes police investigation methods as blinkered, inefficient and insensitive.
You can purchase Dry Ice on Kindle for just $6.00 here: https://www.amazon.com/Dry-Ice-Peter-Joyce-ebook/dp/B01N19JKAR

In the USA it is probably appropriate.

Artist Moma – was this an artist expressing a position through art?
Where did it come from?
I think we need to careful not to confuse art with digital propaganda, which these days, can very easily be made, in many mediums, including manipulated photography.
I don’t call that art, and we wouldn’t credit those people with the title artist.
It’s another form of political activism.
There need to be a clear reference to show which side of the fence the work belongs, not simply an attack on the product.

stuff obviously has no problem with lying. The celebrities in the photos are wearing make up. Think about how many lives have been lost through little white lies. Think about all the false rape charges where men have been killed, executed etc. Really f***** disgusting. I have no words.

Well – perhaps there is more for the 3rd Wave Feminist to fight for, other than the diagnosis of ADHD for her own sons.
Who would have thought such artistry would become so famous.
We deserve better.

I suppose we have to think of the Net, much like the network of roads throughout Rome, which also became invested with women’s politics, and their eternal demands.
