Best part is that even Louis CK himself completely acknowledged that what he did was awful and lovely and put out something resembling a decent apology, making his fans seem like even bigger assholes:

Last night my girlfriend and I were talking about Louis CK and she had him mixed up with Jim Gaffigan and only figured out that she was thinking of the wrong comedian when I said "Well Louis CK talks about masturbation... a lot."

I'm legit bothered that there's guys out there that think masturbating in front of women is okay, that it does no harm because they weren't touched.

masturbating in front of women is totally okay

so long as they are interested in watching you whack it, that is

Even if they were interested, it probably also helps to get permission to do it first.

It mostly seems to be the same argument people apply to lots of things, 'You can't complain about X because Y has it much worse'. So when they're looking at thier chart of Comedian serial sex offenders they see Bill Cosby is a serial rapist so what Louis CK did is way down the chart from that so they shouldn't complain about it. They'll leap to the defence of anything thats less than the full Cosby.

Well yeah, that's part of the problem. Dude had power over people on account of being comedy king of the hour. He had a lot of pull, so when he says "mind if I jerk off?" Women aren't in a position to go "gently caress off you weirdo" without possibly compromising their careers or standing in the comedy scene.

Like he has any points in persuasion anyway. Same difference at that point. And considering they probably have a -4 bonus to Charisma, I don't think a natural 20 is going to actually help.

Skill checks aren't automatic successes on nat 20s, but a lot of people played that way anyway. (I haven't played since 3.5, dunno if that's changed at all.)

Although I guess there's plenty of video games too that have arbitrary caps and minimums like that.

So, I follow Polygon on Twitter as they usually have news that's more in line with my interests, and they tend to report on more niche things then others. Of course, they attract all kinds of folks that love to talk about how SJW Polygon is, and how they should stick to games, and not feelings, etc.

They posted this today, and while expectedly none of the comments are good, some are rather out there...

It hasn't changed, in that:
1) On skill checks a 1 still isn't an automatic failure, and a 20 isn't an automatic success
2) A lot of people still think they are

The modern system is "A confirmed hit after rolling a 20 is a 30, and a confirmed miss after rolling a 1 is a -10."

More people who like the fun parts of DnD should just play PBTA games instead.
