The right-wing posters are inscribed with a twist on phrases used in recent sexual harassment movements, including #NoMeansNo and #MyBodyMyChoice.

Also depicted was a cartoon of an outstretched hand nefariously reaching toward an avatar of the United States as a browbeaten woman wrapping her arms around herself.
