The #metoo movement continues to welcome leaders that directly carry out heinous violence against women and children throughout the world, via drone\u00a0strikes\u00a0and crippling economic policies. These victims have been completely ignored by mainstream feminists. Anyone, including myself, who tries to expose this hypocrisy is immediately silenced and shamed. \u201cModern Man\u201d is a song that gives a voice to the overlooked and disenfranchised women all over the world. I hope it encourages everyone, not just women, to think critically and speak up against all injustices and oppression.
