Last weekend was the Women's March where women and friends of women gathered around the globe to protest gender inequality and President Trump. Most estimates put it as the largest protest in US history.
Like anything big and popular some people are bound to misunderstand what it was about, and rather than try to understand it, they choose to ridicule it instead. Case in point, former CNN anchor, Piers Morgan.

In case he ever gets shamed into taking that tweet post, it reads "I'm planning a 'Men's March' to protest at the creeping global emasculation of my gender by rabid feminists. Who's with me?"
Plenty of people were outraged over the tweet. Actor Ewan McGregor cancelled on upcoming appearance on Morgan's show in response to the tweet. Others decided to tweet back including King of Twitter, Patton Oswalt.

Pretty soon other people joined in on the fun.

These tweets seem to have done a number on Morgan. He is now a staunch ally of women and knows exactly what they are going through.
