Crosby B. Alfred posted:And what happens when people don't believe or dispute the evidence? I feel like this whole line of argument assumes that people deserve their jobs as elected officials. They don’t. Now, to a point their electorate deserves to have them, having elected them, but even then if you can’t avoid a controversy you shouldn’t hold an office. There are thousands of other people who could do as bad a job as whoever is being accused.

Crosby B. Alfred posted:Think of it another way then, the electorate deserve to appropriately remove elected officials through some kind of process. The mere instance of a controversy shouldn't be the end of anyone's career. Mmmm, no the process is there to give us a way to remove them without violence. I don't think it gets to pull double duty. And any other line of work, I would agree with you. Public office? GTFO.

emSparkly posted:By engaging with the exploitative TV, film, and music industries, or the all too often misogynist and pedophilic mediums of video games or anime, am I perpetuating rape culture? Everyone I've met seems to think no, but I can't stomach the idea of thinking my enjoyment of a film is more important than the life and safety of a woman who the director raped in college. I feel like by enjoying anything at all I'm just another walking insult to survivors of sexual violence. How are so many just able to go about their day finding enjoyment in things so closely related to a culture of hurting women and shaming them afterward and coming away not feeling disgusted? We're a hateful and corrupt species, OP
