Injudicious statements: ‘I have every right to be fucking angry. These cunts are rude. Fuck’em’
Testifying under oath before members of the House Legislative Administration Committee investigating his activities, state House Rep. Robert Fisher confessed to being responsible for creating one of the web’s most misogynistic destinations but told the committee, “I have never hated women.”
“Several years ago,” he conceded, “I made some injudicious statements regarding women and my frustrations with dating.” A previously unreported blog dating from 2012, apparently created by a writer using pseudonyms now linked to Fisher, adds to the collection of misogynistic statements.
The two-term Republican lawmaker has admitted to being pk_atheist, the previously anonymous Reddit user who created and moderated The Red Pill. Within weeks of creating the infamous subreddit in late 2012, a separate WordPress blog linked to the forum debuted.
“Who am I?” the site’s author asked. “I’m Desmond. I am the curator/admin of the /r/TheRedPill subreddit. My handle on reddit is pk_atheist.” (Daily Beast documented Fisher’s use of the Desmond pseudonym on other websites in late 2012.)
The Antidate (tagline: “You’ve been poisoned. Quick, take this”) includes just three posts, all dated in late December 2012. A historical snapshot of the site, maintained on the Wayback Machine, confirms the blog and the current content were live in 2013.
Women are blatent (sic) and narcissistic,” pk_atheist wrote. “They do not hide their atrociousness. They lie, cheat, and create a public environment where they deride others for the very things they themselves do. Fuck em.”
In a post titled, “There’s a reason to be angry,” pk_atheist spewed with rage. “I think I’ve got a good reason to be angry,” he wrote. “Because women lie. And no matter how much of a strategy it is, no matter how much evolutionary psychology you’ve got to back this up, no matter how much sense it makes, it’s still unattractive to me. And I can be ok with this.”
“Women lie about what they like. They lie about what’s respectable in society. They have expectations of the people around them, but they lie about the morality of it,” he continued. “I am expected to be a nice, kind gentleman that does the right thing all the time. It’s expected of me. But women have no such compulsion.” […]
“Well, I have every right to be fucking angry,” pk_atheist concluded. “These cunts are rude. Fuck’em.”
