So anyway: Rape is a big problem. Rape fucks people up but dying is worse. Rape is tolerated to some degree by our society. People in power sometimes use rape as a way to enjoy their power. People not in power sometimes use rape as a way to gain a feeling of power. Most people get triggered when they hear about rape and their first instinct is to protect themselves by “shutting up the victims” and shutting down discourse or engaging in some kind of gun-dick power fantasy where they totally own.
Think I got the bullet points down.
