idk maybe i don't need OP or lemmy if this is cool...
Ah yes, the weird American fascination with prison rape as a form of punishment.
To be fair, we do put rapists in there.
We also put people who happened to have a few grams of weed in there.
Also people who commit the crime of being black near police officers.
Americans love their prison rape & not policing their inmates competently to enable more prison rape.
Americans really have just normalised and relish terrible things happening to people in prison huh? Social programming is one hell of a drug
The "If Criminal, then Bad Person" and the "If Bad Person, then any Bad Thing OK" combo are pervasive in America, across the political spectrum, and have been for a while. At least since the War on Drugs started, and almost certainly well before that. It is frightening to have a conversation with a seemingly well-meaning, moral person and have them casually joke about prisoners being tortured, raped, or killed. I don't think it's an attitude unique to America but I think the private prison industry has had a lot to do with how incredibly common the attitude is that, if someone is in prison, they must have done something wrong, and if they did something wrong, any bad thing that happens to them (forced labor, starvation, sexual assault, death) is deserved punishment. It's ghastly.
Fuck this. No. This is so much of what's wrong with this fucking country.
No. Let's not reinforce prisons as torture camps. For fuck's sake.
Sexual assault is funny, and rape is ok when it's happening to prisoners, clearly.
This actually made me sick to my stomach. I'm used to prison rape (and men being raped in general) being treated as a joke, but to see it in an ostensibly "progressive" movement was just too much for me. Especially since these are the same people who rushed to condemn violence after Kirk got shot. Where is your morality now?
Realise that the revenge you're praying for can only happen if the institution of prison rape, which predominantly victimizes queer people in men's prisons, continues to exist. If you find that tolerable even for a second... I just don't know how to reach you.
You are right. This is perpetuating rape culture and is unacceptable in a progressive society. That woman should be ashamed of herself.

Not sure if prison rape joke or ok
its a tough one cause it is a prison rape joke, those are obviously bad and that doesn’t change here
but i won’t lie, i kinda feel like serial rapists like trump deserve to feel what it’s like to be on the other end, for once
People need to stop making prison rape jokes. It's not OK to joke about women getting raped, so why is it OK when its a man? I fucking wish more people cared about male rape.
I don't care if it is this particular situation, regardless of gender. Not even a little bit. I hope for worse.
I like it because it's clever. It's still kinda boomer humor about prison rape but No Kings isn't about getting angry about something like that when we have a common enemy.
Plus who knows, Big Beautiful Bill might just be a lovely, swell fellow.
Big Beautiful Bill was wrongly imprisoned like many in America. He is a great guy who looks out for other inmates. He is sex positive and knows that consent is mandatory. After falling in love with Bill, Trump is fully reformed and joins the antifascist cause leaving hate behind and embracing peace love and justice for all.
Plot twist, BBBill is actually a decent human being who gets trump to see the error of his ways.
(Yeah, BIG fantasy. I’d win the lottery before the odds of both those things happening)
Can you imaging the psycological trauma? He is jail and so old he can hear Death sharpening his scythe in the next room, and someone makes him see, and understand, the evil he's spent his life on. I know it's a fantasy, but that sort of realization would tear apart any normal person's psyche.
Odd way of nicknaming Clinton, but who am I to judge?
I don’t know why people think Trump will spend 1 second in any sort of prison.
They're praying for it to happen, not saying it's a legitimate outcome.
So basically a rape joke. Remember when people had a meltdown when rape jokes were used against women ?
Where's the outrage ??? This is sick & disgusting.
Honestly Hope America rots in hell. What a sick society. Trump is seriously the best thing to happen to Americans. Revealed their true depraved nature.
Where's the outrage ???
I see a ton of comments from people upset by this. Yes, it is viewed differently, but in my experience, most people will realize why this isn't okay if you explain it to them.
So I have to explain why rape is bad to them ??
