What a fucking dumb comparison. Your whataboutism argument is shit.
I think it’s a horrible idea. But if that’s the point of the game, then it’s expected. And just by playing the game, you’re giving consent for this to happen because that’s the whole point of the game and therefore it’s not rape.
The VR game the teenage girl was playing was not a rape game. She didn’t play that game to experience virtual rape. What happened to her is a form of sexual harassment and that’s a form of sexual abuse, which young girls and women are overwhelmingly the most frequent victims of this kind of abuse.
Instead you’re all here continuously defending the guys who harassed the girl, trying to find some stupid fucking argument to excuse their horrible behaviour with whataboutism and red herrings and all kinds of bullshit instead of questioning the men’s behavior.
Relax, no one here is saying that rape is ok. What people have issue with is actually calling it “virtual rape”. It’s stupid and pretty offensive to actual rape victims. Trying to classify it as a sexual offense in legal terms doesn’t make any sense. It’s all just avatars and animations. It would be possible for 10 year old boys to “virtually rape” grown women or even for 10 year old girls to virtually rape grown men. What’s next? Assaulting people by showing them images? Fraud charges for rick rolling someone?
Common sense approach is to say that if this would happen repeatedly to a user and it would be intentionally directed at them in order to make them leave the game it could be considered harassment. Same as sending someone offensive messages. That’s it.
“bold” demands: real healthcare, a living wage, and sound taxation. man, even the nation has moved a bit to the right. anyway, excellent. finally someone shaping up to be a true,y great catalyst for our time to start the transformation we need. “transform or die” is line theme and necessity of our time.
Ya, it’s almost like Covid doesn’t have any preventative methods nor vaccinations, and lots of other countries basically treat it as normal illness now.
