* BrokenAesop: The episode tries to tackle radical feminism but portrays everyone else but Lisa and Bossy Riot as in the wrong. The Boys Rights Association are portrayed as sexist crybabies for not immediately liking something different and Bart is publically humiliated by Lisa when she uploads footage of Bart enjoying a joke from the reboot. While Bossy Riot and Lisa get away with their wrongdoings and are even lionized for them because they are marginalized for their sex.

* AssholeVictim: The humiliation of the Boys Rights Association on live television is somewhat deserved since they exiled Bart for enjoying something they hate and really shouldn't care about.



* BrokenAesop: Disingenuously supporting a cause is OK, and you break any law you want if you're part of a minority group.
* DisproportionateRetribution: In retaliation to the all-female reboot being cancelled, Bossy Riot attempts to destroy every single episode of the original ''Itchy & Scratchy''.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: InUniverse, Bart and the other boys react badly at the new all-female ''Itchy & Scratchy''. However, the extent of the change is mostly just the pair with long hair but with identical levels of violence (and a musical bit based on ''Film/PitchPerfect''). When catching the short by accident Bart finds it just as funny.funny as ever, and gets ostracized for not jumping on the hate wagon.

** The ending where Lisa joins the girls for a night of mischief is accompanied by the same musical sting used in ''Film/TheBourneSeries''.

* InsultBackfire: When Milhouse starts ranting about Bart betraying them and about how girls keep ruining all the things they enjoy, the other boys agree with him. Bart tries to difuse the situation by pointing out they're listening to a loser like Milhouse, but that makes Milhouse realize that since the other boys ''are'' listening to him, he immediately turns the tables by assuming leadership and ordering them to get Bart.

* EvilIsCool: InUniverse, Bart and Lisa believe Bossy Riot are underdogs fighting a misogynistic system. In reality, Bart was a mercenary for the cause and nothing more than a scapegoat to Bossy Riot. Bossy Riot are also just hypocrites with an excuse to hurt others.

** Krusty is never called out on using feminism for profit; the boys are more concerned about the reboot ruining their childhood and Lisa isn't offended by Krusty's agenda with the reboot.
