Really Mad Dude Writes A Letter Complaining About A Movie Theater's Screening Of "Wonder Woman" So The Mayor Of Austin Lit His Ass Up

(CNN)Next time you want to share your rants against women with Austin’s mayor, think twice.

One man learned that the hard way when he emailed a letter to Mayor Steve Adler, slamming the women-only screening of “Wonder Woman” at the Alamo Drafthouse cinema in the Texas capital.

The all-female staffing and the special screenings of the superhero movie have sparked an uproar among some male moviegoers.

In the email the mayor posted on his website, Richard A. Ameduri demanded that men boycott Austin over the screenings, saying the city should stop “kissing up to women” and embrace gender equality.

“The theater that pandered to the sexism typical of women will, I hope, regret its decision,” the letter said. “The notion of a woman hero is a fine example of women’s eagerness to accept the appearance of achievement without actual achievement.”

The letter went on to describe women as a “second-rate gender,” saying “virtually everything great in human history was accomplished by men, not women. “

LETTER: WONDER WOMAN

On May 26, 2017, the Mayor received this email:

I hope every man will boycott Austin and do what he can to diminish Austin and to cause damage to the city’s image. The theater that pandered to the sexism typical of women will, I hope, regret it’s decision. The notion of a woman hero is a fine example of women’s eagerness to accept the appearance of achievement without actual achievement. Women learn from an early age to value make-up, that it’s OK to pretend that you are greater than you actually are. Women pretend they do not know that only men serve in combat because they are content to have an easier ride. Women gladly accept gold medals at the Olympics for coming in 10th and competing only against the second class of athletes. Name something invented by a woman! Achievements by the second rate gender pale in comparison to virtually everything great in human history was accomplished by men, not women. If Austin does not host a men only counter event, I will never visit Austin and will welcome it’s deteriorati on. And I will not forget that Austin is best known for Charles Whitman. Does Austin stand for gender equality or for kissing up to women? Don’t bother to respond. I already know the answer. I do not hate women. I hate their rampant hypocrisy and the hypocrisy of the “women’s movement.” Women do not want gender equality; they want more for women. Don’t bother to respond because I am sure your cowardice will generate nothing worth reading.

Richard A. Ameduri

Today he responded:

Dear Mr. Ameduri,

I am writing to alert you that your email account has been hacked by an unfortunate and unusually hostile individual. Please remedy your account’s security right away, lest this person’s uninformed and sexist rantings give you a bad name. After all, we men have to look out for each other!

Can you imagine if someone thought that you didn’t know women could serve in our combat units now without exclusion? What if someone thought you didn’t know that women invented medical syringes, life rafts, fire escapes, central and solar heating, a war-time communications system for radio-controlling torpedoes that laid the technological foundations for everything from Wi-Fi to GPS, and beer? And I hesitate to imagine how embarrassed you’d be if someone thought you were upset that a private business was realizing a business opportunity by reserving one screening this weekend for women to see a superhero movie.

You and I are serious men of substance with little time for the delicate sensitivities displayed by the pitiful creature who maligned your good name and sterling character by writing that abysmal email. I trust the news that your email account has been hacked does not cause you undue alarm and wish you well in securing your account. And in the future, should your travels take you to Austin, please know that everyone is welcome here, even people like those who wrote that email whose views are an embarrassment to modernity, decency, and common sense.

Yours sincerely,

Steve Adler

As everybody around here knows I absolutely adore women.  Some of my best friends are women.   My girlfriends have all been women.  Erika is my favorite CEO I’ve ever worked for and people forget that she is a woman who I had a direct vote in hiring not to brag.   My mom is a woman.  And of course my favorite pop stars are almost exclusively women.   So what Richard Ameduri said here was not only way out of line, factually incorrect and straight up sexist garbage, it was actually offensive on a personal level.

Not only that, troll, but have you ever even heard of Gal Gadot?

Wonder Woman might not actually be a 93% movie but if you don’t want to see Gal on the big screen then you might be…well, we’ve caused enough offense around here lately so I won’t finish that thought.  Just trying to say she is incredibly hot.

Strong ass independent women superheroes >>>

PS,

If I were in the mood to be super woke here I’d maybe wonder if this was a little false flag email situation going on here.  Does Mayor Adler have a re-election campaign coming up?  I mean Women gladly accept gold medals at the Olympics for coming in 10th is dumb even for the dumbest troll.
