The original article ( https://sisthis.com/2020/07/26/dear-men-stop-working-out/ ) might be serious, or not. Poe's Law is when you can't tell. I suspect this is serious, though I'm more suspicious about uniasedkatie.

There are equally silly articles that I'm almost positive are to be taken seriously; for instance, "The fact that we're considering making misandry a hate crime should concern everyone who believes in equality." ( https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/misandry-men-hate-crime-women-sexism-racism-feminism-a8586591.html ). A white student was physically assaulted for having dreadlocks recently, too. With things like that happening, telling men not to work out is relatively only mildly crazy.

The only enlightenment I got out of that article is that you don't have a sense of humor.

Of if he wants to poke fun then I don't see any harm.

Individual treatment calls for more discretion, as always, but putting more outrageous stuff on display is a sportly activity, particularly on a bipartisan level.

Interesting video on debate btw:
