Piers Morgan has a lot of opinions. And much like his buddy President Trump, Morgan likes to voice those opinions on Twitter — usually eliciting a strong reaction from liberals. This weekend, Morgan tweeted about a topic he has come under fire for previously: feminism. Specifically, his tweets about Saturday’s Women’s March.

First, Morgan voiced his discontent with the Women’s Marches happening across the country by sharing this tweet.
Imagine if there were a load of men-only marches today?
The feminists would go crackers.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) January 21, 2017
The backlash was almost immediate, with many women calling him sexist and claiming that he was missing the entire point of the demonstration. But instead of recoiling from his unpopular position, Morgan doubled down.
I'm planning a 'Men's March' to protest at the creeping global emasculation of my gender by rabid feminists. Who's with me?

Not one to pass up the opportunity to troll a talking head, Patton Oswalt immediately jumped into the conversation, turning Morgan’s hypothetical “Men’s March” into a hilarious parody of itself. Oswalt even managed to get #MensMarch trending on Twitter, completely ironically of course!
Hey @piersmorgan, I'm at the #MensMarch. Am I at the right Arby's? No one's here. I'm in a "Bro-varies Not Ovaries" half-tee.

The Park City #MensMarch is underway! There's only 8 of us but we're yelling Warrant lyrics outside of a Sephora. Thanks @piersmorgan!

The #MensMarch is still going strong. We lost Gator and Hank — gout flare-ups. Stewie says we're trending on Gab.

#MensMarch UPDATE: We've been infiltrated by a very confused James O'Keefe III who disguised himself as a DVD of THE LONGEST YARD.

The Park City #MensMarch is over. Sorry. Our phlebitis cycles synched up. Join us at the 11:30 screening of xXx: RETURN OF XANDER CAGE

Though he didn’t call out Oswalt by name, Morgan took to his Twitter again later in the day after #MensMarch became a real force of a hashtag, to clear the air. You see, according to Morgan, all these silly liberals didn’t even have the brains to understand that he was joking.
People actually thought I was genuinely planning a Men's anti-emasculation March. 😂😂
This is how dumb social media has become.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) January 21, 2017
Well, Oswalt wasn’t going to accept that cop out.
Shut up you dumb British bullfart. No one thought you were gonna do shit about fuck. We just like making fun of you. Pip pip. https://t.co/XbzNhYy3cX
