I want you all to look at this
Since watching this episode on The Escapist, I've grown to put a lot of thought into the state of gaming, anime and general internet culture and the rampant amounts of racism, sexism, homophobia. And don't any of you deny it. How many of us have made 'Get back in the kitchen' jokes, black jokes, called someone a fag, called someone a virgin or just stayed silent and watched others do the same?
Let me tell you all something; Shit like
This
This
And this
Is why we are constantly attacked by politicians, soccer moms and the like who are trying to get games banned and why we are generally shunned and labeled as a bunch of loud, anti-social, obnoxious assholes who live their entire lives on the computer and/or game console and treat everything in real life like a joke.
The best and most personal example of this was an episode of Kannazuki no Miko that I watched on youtube. And this one, Chikane supposedly snapped and turned into one of the Orochi, and part of that involved raping Himeko. We didn't get to see it, but goddamnit, the truth was there. The experience left poor Himeko shocked, hurt and turned her into a walking, weeping vegetable for another two-three episodes that spanned perhaps weeks into a month or two.
But, as serious and shocking as this was, the general reaction to that scene went something like this:”Oh, yeah that part was totally hot, Himeko is so lucky to be raped by Chikane, herp derp!”.... Are you fucking kidding me?! Rape is rape, it doesn't matter who it involves, it's still a crime, it's still physically, emotionally and mentally scarring and it's still-for these reasons-wrong on any level.
It shouldn't fucking matter that this was an attractive girl raping another attractive girl should not matter and it DEFINITELY shouldn't somehow make it okay or
hot or any shit like that. And no, it wasn't just one or two trolls saying this shit, it was nearly every fucking comment on that youtube page.
And before any of you tell me that kind of shit doesn't happen here, allow me to direct you to exhibit D
This, is fakku's own stake in the contribution to the internet culture's rampant sexism. And all of you complaining about the vanilla community's outspokeness against this sort of thing, they have a fucking right to. You know why?
Because, the act of rape is very terrible thing; it should not be treated lightly and it DEFINITELY should not be treated as a piece of fap material. And that's exactly what shit like this
Says to me that the image of a girl being raped isn't something to be at the very least apalled about, but something to be titillated by and fap to.
I'm not going to use the argument that “People who enjoy rape porn are capapable of rape”, but what I will say is that those of you who do should take a good hard look at what the fact that it arouses you for any reason and at all says about you.
And before you say that it's just a fantasy; I don't fucking care. The fact that you watch this sort of thing is wrong, that it arouses you and that you even have fantasies involving it shows that there's something wrong with you and you NTR and forced hentai lovers should all be ashamed.
In fact every single one of you whose indulged in the racist/sexist/homophobic jokes should be ashamed. Every single one of you who stood back and did or said nothing for the sake of 'that's just how it is' should be ashamed.
I know I am.
