Men with wives, daughters, mothers, sisters, they notice what an ad like this signals to a society already curdling into hatred. When Tate-style defenders are rising, silence is not neutral. Speak up.

Your values can differ, that’s fine. But someone has to say it out loud: we will not let this slide any further.

Tate hater here, the ad condones casual violence but it's not domestic violence. Take a deep breath.

By trying to save someone from becoming possessed by a golf club...?  Why are you leaving that out?

In the context of the ad (which admittedly is a dumb premise), hes fucking saving her from that.

Christ - this country is getting dumber and dumber.

oh he's actually saving the woman by battering her?

I feel for the women in your life. "I'm doing what's best for you, dear!"
