      I knew about that, but didn’t connect the meme to the Cornell case. The meme has been true for a very long time.

        I remember watching some youtube channels around that time who went hard into it over time and they became progressively more off putting to me until I dropped them.

        Shame, as I know some actually mentioned real problems faced by the working class initially and that is what I was there for. Then more and more of this anti-feminism bullshit starts appearing for some reason and I lost interest.

      Haven’t heard about this until now so this was initially rather confusing. Maybe its a bigger thing in the US.

        Definitely bigger here in the US. There was a congressional candidate who was raped while she was campaigning recently as well that’s hit the news cycle this week, too.

        There’s a lot of rape here.

        No, the rapists have been extensively condemned in popular media and person-to-person conversations here.

          That’s why Jane Doe has been swatted and is receiving death rights, right? Everyone is super supportive of her?

          Yeah.
