rape apologia
If your response to a discussion about rape and sexual assault is something to the effect of "that is what we have the legal system for" or "they should have gone to the police", then you frankly need to shut the fuck up and actually listen to a victim some day, because you clearly have *no idea* what you are talking about.
In unrelated news, guess what the response in some CCC circles was to the protest at #38c3
re: rape apologia
@joepie91 is there any info about that protest available anywhere for creatures that weren’t aware of it happening?
re: rape apologia
@cafkafk There are some reports of it on fedi; a few pictures of the leaflets that were handed out, mainly. From what I've heard, a number of people ran onto stage, yelled... something (inaudible apparently) and handed out those leaflets. That's all I know of it, as I wasn't there.
This is one of the leaflet posts: https://defcon.social/@cptwtf/113731130297472479

@joepie91 the legal system exists to ensure nobody gets murdered in revenge. It’s not the end of accountability. If it were, we would allow child molestors in child-care on the day of their release, as they have paid for their crimes.
Our laws give us a wide range of options for dealing with perpetrators in our spaces, so the legal system acknowledges or right to do more than itself. Also not admitting perpetrators to our spaces is not about punishment, but about protecting us.

@joepie91 be excellent to each other, unless it forces you to engage with problematic beliefs you might hold
