Why is it the fault of American women wanting to have their rapes and sexual abuse taken seriously that American men are now raping and sexually abusing women in foreign countries? Shouldn't the blame lie with the men who are doing the raping and abusing rather than the women who just don't want to get raped and abused? Yeah, the tone of the article makes me feel gross too. Like, the reporter is giving some serious airtime to this scumbag and the way he writes isn't exactly sympathetic to the #metoo movement.

Space Cadet Omoly posted:If you say poo poo like this you should get pepper sprayed. That should be a law. You're not allowed to talk about how it's harmless unless you're willing to have it done to you. if someone served this guy nachos at a party laced with pepper spray he'd probably charge them with assault or whatever law is applicable

I remember the “pepper spray is a food group” talking point for when a bunch of college students were pepper sprayed some years ago.

I would treat this argument like the waterboarding argument--tell them if it's a food group, they should spray it on some crackers and loving eat it in front of a national audience.

You know how in superhero films when the villain is asked, "Why did you do the bad things?" and they give some well animated backstory about how America was a complete bastard man so therefore you have to die Mr Stark? Mm.

Why is it any time I see an article constructed like this I picture it's the sleaziest reporter in the company who manages to come up with the most absurd angles so that they can write just one more article about sex workers.

Mr Ice Cream Glove posted:This is America The thing that is important to keep at the forefront is that this was willed into existence by our scumbag president. The narrative will frame what happened as being the fault of the migrants, where there were a dozen different possible outcomes. This is what Donald Trump wanted. To Donald Trump, gassing babies was the goal all along. He knew who was in the caravan. He didn’t care. Showing force is all that mattered, because stubborn force is his only policy. Donald Trump made this happen. He is a cruel, sick monster.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Which is worse, getting pepper sprayed or tear gassed? Because they seem different. It depends. Pepper spray is a kind of tear gas (OC), but there are others like CS and CN. OC is less toxic, but depending on who you ask is actually more painful than the others.

And the problem isn't even specifically related to sex work as a concept. While there is a debate to be had about the role of sex workers in society, and to what extent it should be allowed, the things these men are after must absolutely not be allowed in any situation, because beyond sex itself, these men want to have power over their victims and abuse them. Even if you think sex work should be legal and regulated, I cannot see any reasonable framework where these sick bastards would be satisfied. It ain't about getting laid, no matter how much they protest otherwise.
