Gillette Boycott Imminent: #MeToo Gillette Ad "We Believe" Makes A Bid For The Virtue Signal Dollar

Don't be fooled by his cute looks.

This little man cub ain't old enough to shave yet, but lurking inside him is a bully just waiting to get out and start abusing women.

And hold up, did this ad just say: "The boys of today will be the men of tomorrow," at the end there?

Hello? That's transphobic.

Has Gillette even heard of Caitlyn Jenner?

Should have ended with: "Because the boys of today will become the women of tomorrow." lol

Clearly in this sad attempt to show how woke they are, Gillette has just proven once again that they are definitely not woke.

Lol all joking aside–– this new Gillette commercial spot pegged to the #MeToo movement asks:

"Is this the best a man can get?"

Well no, obviously not if by "this" you mean bullying or hurting women. Obviously men can get much, much better than that and most of them do. But you'll never see a bunch of women getting together to throw a march to say thank you once in a while.


And now Proctor and Gamble, the parent company of Gillette, in a move that is absolutely insane, is making a bid for the male guilt virtue signal dollar. 😄

Identity politics is getting stupider and stupider every day.

Now this soap utility company is telling you they want you to take a moment every time you shave your beard and think about all the bad things men have done.

You can't just shave now without it being a moment of silence for some victim. When a society's currency becomes victimhood it is on a short road to hell.

And seeing a major corporation tell you that's what it thinks about you with an advertisement like this should be a real gut check for American men right now.



This is not the time to be bearing the burden of other people's sins nor is it the time to be putting on the yoke of class guilt. Now is a time for being free.

Now is a time for individual liberty and responsibility, not for disappearing into a checklist of demographic criteria. You are not a census bureau form.

Don't let these sonsofbitches at Proctor and Gamble tell you that's what you amount to. They're wrong!

These are the sick people who cooked up that Tide Pod challenge on social media last year.

You think the kids came up with that?



No, it was some big P&G marketing executives sitting in a boardroom somewhere talking to each other and deciding that it's not enough that Americans buy way more Tide than any other brand and pay way more for it even though it's all the same stuff (making Tide a classic case study in prestige pricing).

"No that's not enough for us. We're going to make their kids eat it."


And now P&G is trying to profit from identity politics and virtue signaling. But it's already backfiring:


Now don't forget Nike took a big hit to its stock price after running the Colin Kaepernick ad, but then rebounded and made gains in a short amount of time, so we need to keep the pressure on and #BoycottGillette.

Gillette you should have just stuck to the product features and benefits, or made us laugh.




Truth is a lot of people are violent and it's not a problem with one sex or gender or another. Good thing is people are becoming less violent and we live in the least violent time in human history. People pass down less and less trauma and more and more love and understanding and care with each new generation.

We are not just going to stand around being sad all the time that we're men and that some men have done bad things. Those of us who haven't hurt anybody are not going to take on any class guilt.

I'd rather stop shaving altogether than look in the mirror every day and hate on myself for being a man when I could be thinking about all the great things men have done and how I will do great things too.

Let's #BoycottGillette

And I would like to endorse a product by Unilever, one of Proctor and Gamble's biggest competitors, a Unilever product that's near and dear to my libertarian heart (because I sprayed some on my chest today):



Now some people will say Axe is lame or cheesy, but those people are wrong. Axe is some very nice smelling aerosol perfume and they have amazing advertising that isn't sexist, or lame enough to pander to a political movement of identity-based grievance.

Now watch this ad and click my affiliate link above and get yourself a can of Axe body spray:



Stuff is powerful and their advertising is too.

Have some friends over sometime and give 'em a spritz of Axe and watch what happens.

I also endorse a quality straight razor for your future shaving needs. It's more manly than Gillette's safety razors, so it will really annoy a liberal:


Price: $169.95 and FREE Shipping (Only 16 Left In Stock)

Ron Paul’s Devious Plan to Steal the Presidency

This is an absolute hoot! Ron Paul hating Republicans are in panic mode. The website Hillbuzz.org includes in its blogroll Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin and Conservatives4Palin. Hillbuzz is so utterly revolting that I may just have to subscribe to its updates. Up until yesterday, I really hadn’t taken the Ron Paul campaign very seriously. Most non-Paul voters probably felt like I did, and laughed him off as that “kooky Uncle” who didn’t have a chance in hell to win the Republican nomination for President. Well, I’ve changed my mind. Big time. Yesterday I attended the Republican organizational convention for my Senate district here in Minnesota, and what I witnessed was an organized take-over of our nomination process by Ron Paul cultists. They came to this convention with the sole intent to take over as many of the delegate seats as they could, and sadly, they succeeded. Read the rest here Hillbuzz 

How To Gain More Twitter Followers

Earlier today, I wrote : "My goal is to write a book before the end of March. My goal is to spend no more than a week from start to publication, spending as much time as I need in order to get it done during that week. My goal is to give it away to you for free here on HumbleLibertarian.com. What's a goal you have? Something you may have been putting off for years? Something you could accomplish in one month if you were determined? If it's near-term enough of a goal, and specific enough of a goal, and you share it in the comments below, feel free to tell me how I can help you and I'll do whatever I can. If it's a libertarian / news / politics-related goal, my manner of help would be easy to determine. I could promote it, introduce you to someone via email, (etc.). If it's something apolitical like quit smoking cigarettes, start exercising, learn guitar, start a business, gain more Twitter followers, learn another language, eat a paleo diet, or...

IRS Admits Targeting Tea Party!

You think Matt Drudge is just being hysterical in that screenshot above? With that ALL CAPS headline about the IRS? Being hysterical, while trying to sell you chocolate covered strawberries for Mother's Day? Well guess again, because you know this is seriously crazy when even the AP is using all caps for their headline , and filing it under a subdomain called "bigstory": The AP says : The Internal Revenue Service inappropriately flagged conservative political groups for additional reviews during the 2012 election to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status, a top IRS official said Friday. Organizations were singled out because they included the words "tea party" or "patriot" in their applications for tax-exempt status, said Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS division that oversees tax-exempt groups. In some cases, groups were asked for their list of donors, which violates IRS policy in most cases, she said. "That was wrong. T...
