So my initial response was "jesus fuck that's some unnecessary hyperbole, I get your point but that's ridiculous"

And then I realized that's the same response I have with women who pick the bear so

I dunno

Maybe you all suck?

Maybe we all care about things you don't care about?

Or maybe hyperbole is not the best way to make a point?

It depends. Largely on whether it's obvious that it's hyperbole.

Though as far as the gender war is actually a war I still think that the Geneva convention should definitely apply. By, you know, analogy.
