I'm asking because I'm genuinely interested in understanding, it's the first time I stumbled uppon the word "reactionary content" so I had a look what it means https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactionary which in this context probably means:

In popular usage, reactionary refers to a strong traditionalist conservative political perspective of a person opposed to social, political, and economic change

Is the reactionism here in this meme that it through comedy tries to ridicule the "strong and independent woman" and thus promotes a political perspective of the patriarchy? Or am I now reading too much into it?
