There is nothing liberal about HuffPo. it is part of the corporate media that bows to power.

Without clicking the link to that article I'm setting the over/under for the number of "problematics" in it at 7.5.

Or why Me Before You is "deeply troubling" : http://www.huffingtonpost.com/kim-saude ... 08260.html

It is more than that.

It plays to the worse of the liberal audience. Open letter from a mother with autism. Why you should be offended by everything. Why men are evil. There is no nuance.

Warning: This post contains sensitive subject matter, please read with caution.

It's a load of bullshit wrapped in the blanket of "I care about everyone!".

And I missed probably the best example:

Literally have never seen that warning anywhere else or on stories about say mass shootings or the Holocaust.

Central to artist Sophia Hewson’s work is “the idea that rape is more than an unwanted sexual act.”

“Central to this work is also the idea that rape is more than an unwanted sexual act, that it is the foundation for the entire institution of the patriarchy, and hence it is the crucial battleground for dismantling male power,” Hewson further explains in the statement. “If rape is the ultimate weapon of male-domination, then anything outside of being permanently impacted by the experience, undermines male weaponry. To choose to put yourself in this situation, to show (even symbolically) a woman enduring the scene in ‘Untitled (are you ok bob?),’ is conceptually challenging because it threatens our assumption that man’s power is insurmountable. And in the ideology of patriarchy that is the deepest offense possible.”

No, really:



So...men need to see rape to know that rape is bad? Who is in disagreement that rape is a bad thing other than rapists?!?!? And even then, do the rapists not know what they're doing is bad, or do they just not care?

I bet most of those chicks did not check the white/Caucasian box on their job applications.

Yeah, as I've said before, this idea of "teach men not to rape" as a construct similar to "teach dogs not to shit on the floor" is a folly. Guys in modern Western civilization know not to rape the same way they know not to murder, not to steal, or not to shit all over a nice hardwood floor. Obviously, some people do it anyway. They just don't care, whether in that moment or chronically, and that's much harder to reckon with, this idea that someone can willfully transgress like that.
