The Australian premiere at the Palace Kino cinema in Melbourne cancelled their planned November 6 screening after a petition circulated that called the film "misogynistic propaganda".[17][18] The Change.org petition gained 2,370 signatures.[17] A counter-petition to reverse the decision gained close to 5,000 supporters[17] in the following days, characterizing the original petition as an "effort to close down free speech in Australia" by those who wished to prevent "a screening of a movie that discusses issues that they fear might interfere with their agenda."[17] Organizer David Williams was critical of the original petition, stating that nobody who signed the petition would have seen the film.[19]
