Atleast the modern media
Anyway, I've spent enough of my time and attention pondering rape and its cultural position, I feel blemished by spending my attention on something that foul
Yeah that's shitty writing
They do that for gay people too
I believe what Daniel is saying is true if theres no fundamental ground for the rape in a movie or show there’s no need for it at all does progress the story of not then not needed
that's what i mean by it being fetishistic
if it doesn't add anything to the character or the story, it shouldn't be there
Make it their whole personality which makes it feel like people are pushing the gay agenda
That applies to everything
yes absolutely
See JK Rowling
if it's not relevant, don't add it, ever
but it's even more shitty when it's something as serious as rape
and they just.. blow it off after it's done
I get it
That's fucking shitty
you know elsa gate
If you call yourself a writer but you prioritize pushing your political agenda over creating a good story, you're not a writer, you're an activist
Though I really need examples of media so I can appreciate the point better
Yes Elsa gate
just the concept of people pushing inappropriate themes on children to desensitize them to hard themes
That's exactly what I was thinking when you talked about making rape a fetish
like scat, rape, gore, abuse etc
Yes
i believe it's thje same concept
especially shows aimed towards teens right now
Yes
See 13 reasons why
The book was already a shitty one
Then they made it a show
i watch a lot of teen shows and they're FULL of directionless violence, drugs, sex
Then they made 3 fucking seasons about it
And truth be told I get really tired of activists pushing themselves to center stage using any backhanded methods, for example disguising themselves as entertainment
again it's okay if it's central to the story and it's shown realistically
Although I'd say euphoria has kind of integrated the vulgar parts for a narrative
Exactly
Like breaking bad or Euphoria
Has drugs and violence and sex, but made it a plot point
Instead of just putting scenes for the hell of it
Same for modern pop
