I can’t breathe…

Jane Doe: Ow! Stop grabbing me!
I think I’m bleeding…

Just….gonna….shut….down….
Panel 6: The girl wraps her arms around her legs and closes her eyes as she listens to the barrage of insults, vitriol and victim blaming after coming out with what was done to her.

Panel 7: “Why are they mad at me?”


I am going to preemptively say that if you decide to comment and say anything remotely victim-blaming or stir up any drama against the artist or fellow community members, your comments will be removed, up to and including being banned.

What about sealing? https://vger.to/lemmus.org/comment/20070879
I don’t think that’s a good way to proceed.
You might be blaming victims of false allegations of rape with that, and trust me, I know well how it feels to be raped and to be a victim of false allegations, and both are equally horrible and damaging for anyone who has to live with them.
Please elaborate on what I said that falls under victim blaming?
Edit: I want to make sure I’m clear: I am genuinely interested in what you have to say and I will listen.
Well.
That’s because most victims of false allegations have it nearly impossible to even report it. Let alone proving it, that’s even harder.
Now, most of persons (mostly women, because it’s other story for men, we’re considered the de facto criminals unless proven otherwise) that do false allegations, use these tactics: they give consent and after the act they revoke it and cry “rape”, because they know they’ll be automatically believed by most people. That’s in part because of the “Women-are-wonderful” effect. And most of them do that because of two principal reasons: vengeance or free money (remember that there are programs to help people that suffer abuse, and they then abuse of them making false claims).
Now, take into account that most people takes these things (like telling them not to destroy other people’s live, or that they just want free money or attention, or that they can’t regret afterwards and claim rape as if it were nothing) like rape-denialism and victim-blaming, and trust me, I know that’s in part justified, I’m well aware of DARVO strategies that actual sexual abusers can make and that a lot of victims aren’t heard because of that… But people who do false claims also use DARVO strategies, they’re abusers too although of another type, not sexual, and not every time that someone claims to be abused it’s true that they were abused.
It’s a hard situation without a clear solution, but this is won’t help it to be better.
Imho false allegations should be punished the same as rape (only in cases when it can be proven without a shade of doubt that it was false and intentional). Not only because it ruins the life of the accused, but because it makes all cases of rape harder to prosecute. We should completely eliminate “she’s making it up” from the equation.

Like, they’re making it harder for actual victims, and limiting the resources they can access to.
