Should Father's Day be banned?

[Andrew NDB]

Some people out there think it should.

Yes, it should be banned because all dads are sexist pigs who need to check their institutional privelige.

And once this is done, we need to castrate all men as that will permanently stop them from putting women in the oppressive and patriarchial state of pregnancy.

[Coola Yagami]

Wow... another example of 'just **** men over'.

I swear it seems the world hates men more and more as time passes. We are literally only good for what we can provide to society anymore, who cares if we're also people with feelings right?

[DarkFell]

Some people just don't have a Dad to call their own. If they had a Dad, then none of the upset would be a thing.

Most Dads are pretty cool. Therefore, they're entitled to have a day to enjoy.

[Sumac]

Some people had ****** dads and has become a lot like them as a result - hateful and stupid.
Its sad and ironic.

Have they ever heard of Mother's Day?

[Mayhem]

Only if they get rid of Mother's Day.

Some people think that we should all drink poison in order to join our alien saviors traveling in a UFO behind the comet Hale-Bopp.

Why the hell are we even talking about this? No one in their right mind would take this seriously.

But people are.

[Voltron]

And they aren't in their right mind. Fringe lunatics thrive on attention, and they deliberately try to get under your skin to get their fix. Don't give them the satisfaction.

I wonder how many other bat-**** ideas have been floated that have been given WAY more airtime than needed?

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Yeah, and you know what? Let's get rid of Mother's Day too, since it's offensive to Fathers.

And let's not stop there. Let's ban birthday celebrations as well. It's offensive to people who are no longer alive.

And name days too. It offends everyone whose name isn't in the calendar.

Like no-one took seriously idiots who said that people should start banning things, because, of PRESUMED offense and destroy statues, because, they don't know history, yet here we are: companies are banning and censoring things and crowds of retards are destroying statues.

The line between "fine mind" and not, is thin. When critical mass of idiots reaches certain point, idiots start rule the world. So I'd be very careful with dismissing them as powerless fringe lunatics. Especially nowadays.

Those people deserve pushback and ridicule so no-one would listen to them ever again. And this is why highlighting this idiocy is a good thing.

Yeah, these articles are not worth wasting your time or getting everyone riled up about it, IMO, but whatever floats your boat.

[IMJ]

Then, by the logic of the fool "feminist" depicted in the article, Mother's Day is also "offensive" to single fathers as well as gay men who are parents, and should also be banned.

I'm fine with banning both Mothers and Fathers Day. Shut Hallmark down. Birthdays and anniversaries are what matter.

Valentine's day should be the first to go. Lame holiday.

What people? Can you link articles that aren't more than two years old and from reputable sites? Can you show tweets from people who are in support of this with more than a couple of retweets and likes?

[IndigoErth]

There's always going to be people who think crappy things. Though I'm not sure why we need to discuss them all.

Absolutely. It's the trifecta of "buy cards and don't forget this arbitrary day, or you're a terrible person!" holidays.
