Feminism. Men’s rights. Censorship.
Ladies and gents, it’s been a big day for the internet.
Palace Cinemas, a (fantastic) hipster-friendly cinema chain showing both arthouse and commercial films around Australia, made the decision to cancel the screening of a controversial new documentary called The Red Pill after a a petition with over 2,300 signatures was circulated, demanding the cinema not show the “misogynistic propaganda”.
Palace made the decision to cancel the Australian premiere of the film next month at the Kino cinema in Melbourne, which was to be hosted by Men’s Rights Melbourne.
First of all, ‘ew’ to that name. Members of the Men’s Rights Melbourne do not sound like the sort of people I’d invite over for a tea party.
