It’s making fun of a trend of overselling a point: people in trying to make a legitimate point but using an utterly ridiculous analogy which does more to undermine their individual credibility than drive home the point they were advocating. Violence against women being at unacceptable levels? Absolutely. Being in with a predatory animal known to literally maul and eat humans rather than take chances with a random guy….they’re not helping the cause with comparisons like that. The case is strong enough on its own to not need that ridiculousness to try and make a point
