    But imprisoning them to fight eachother is fine?

    For the record, im totally with you, just seems weird where we draw lines.

        You forgot the filthy rich subclause. Sex slaves are not okay unless you have enough money and want it to be. You just have to be very blatant about it and accuse your political enemies of doing it, then it’s 100% kosher. Well…maybe they wouldn’t use the word “kosher” for…reasons…but you get the idea.

          Except also you don’t have to be filthy rich, you can just pretend to be. You might even become President one day!

      In this household we don’t talk about the implications of Pokemon and we definitely don’t talk about Pokemon Lore.

      And we definitely, definitely don’t talk about leaked Pokemon lore.

      Our boundaries about sex and violence are weird.

      With the caveat that I don’t pretend to be perfectly logical, I’d say that fighting pokemon isn’t really violence. It is just a video game.

      Someone who’s jerking off to pokemon is fantasizing about bestiality. This is way better than real bestiality, and I honestly don’t care if someone is into it as long as they don’t tell me about it. But it’s still going to squick me out.
