(WND)—Actor and comedian Rob Schneider delivered a stunning rebuke Monday to woke singing superstar Alicia Keys after the pianist claimed women in America don’t have the same rights as men.
Keys had said on camera: “Did you know that it’s been 100 years since the Equal Rights Amendment was first introduced? And now, still, women don’t have an explicit guarantee to equal rights under the U.S. Constitution.”
“I couldn’t even believe that was real. I mean we’re not asking for special rights, just equal rights.
“Let’s turn outrage into authorship. If it’s the 250th celebration of the country, isn’t it time to update some things?”
Schneider, an alumnus of “Saturday Night Live” who has co-starred in numerous Adam Sandler films including “The Waterboy” and Just Go With It,” posted an in-your-face, open letter to Keys on X, stating:
Dear Alicia Keys,
Name one right that women DON’T have in America?! I will wait.
Please know that women are FREE to join men working on offshore oil rigs, on deep sea crabbing and fishing vessels, logging trees with gigantic chainsaws, underwater welding for bridge construction and underground mining.
You and purty lady friends can also collect garbage and recycling at 6 in the morning and when you’re done with that you girls are welcome to risk your lives restoring electricity on high power lines.
These “rights” are waiting for you but you gals won’t do it, because you need men to do it. Because that is what men do: risk their lives day in and day out so you lovely girls can just pretend that all those things magically take care of themselves while you bitch and moan about perceived injustices and lack of rights.
So you go girl, Enjoy your electricity and your roads being repaired and your garbage being magically picked up every Tuesday morning and your fancy vegetables and grass fed steaks trucked into your grocery store at 5 in the morning, while you have Vietnamese ladies paint your toenails.
You can call it toxic masculinity, but you would cry your lovely fake eyelashes off when your Air Conditioning breaks down for more than 3 hours.
Your welcome!
Yours truly,
MEN
Jim Hoft at the Gateway Pundit noted: “Schneider’s open letter perfectly exposes the hypocrisy at the heart of the modern feminist grievance industry. While millionaire celebrities like Alicia Keys enjoy every luxury modern society provides, air conditioning, reliable electricity, paved roads, grocery stores stocked with fresh food, and yes, even having their toenails painted, they sneer at the very men who risk their lives daily to make it all possible.
“Men make up over 90% of workplace fatalities in America. They dominate the most dangerous, dirty, and physically demanding jobs: commercial fishing, logging, mining, construction, power line repair, and offshore drilling. These aren’t “privileges,” they’re sacrifices that keep the entire country running.
“The radical left loves to demonize ‘toxic masculinity,’ but without it, the lights would go out, the garbage would pile up, the roads would crumble, and the grocery shelves would go empty within days. American women already have equal rights, full stop.”
