"Meanwhile, Jane Doe dropped out of Cornell and was denied her request to get her tuition refunded so that she could transfer to a different college. She hence faced more severe consequences than most of the men who she alleges gang-raped her." www.thecut.com/article/what...

What It Feels Like at Cornell Right Now
As a professor at the Ivy League school, Kate Manne has known many, many victims. There’s a palpable feeling on campus, she writes, that this is big.

If rapists actually faced consequences for their actions we wouldn’t have nearly as many rapists. In reality many rapists actually benefit from their actions

like i say every time this comes up, the term for what awaits survivors who go through the official system (cops, rape kit at the hospital, the hell of a trial where you as the victim get to be cross examined by yr rapist’s defense) is called “the second rape”

That’s… not what NPC means. This is a hazard of assigning a critic to include context with which they’re unfamiliar (as with this New Yorker author); they have taken the doggerel brainrot-fascist definition as the term of art
"Weapons." Bryan has a very wholesome job: delivering organs to hospitals where they'll be used for transplants. And yet we can also tell, as he shuffles haplessly through a crowded hospital, looking like an extra in his own life, that he is not a great guy, but a disappointingly ordinary one.

Thinking abt this in relation to a post from Danny Lavery from today
Or there will be a little factoid about the person of the day, and you never get any real details about their life, just that they "taught people" or "showed the world" how to lead with grace, or create with confidence, shit like that.

Once, last year, at the last minute I was asked to fill in for a speaker to give a presentation on Martin Luther King Day and I couldn't figure out why the presentation didn't include anything like dates or names or locations or real, concrete information, and about halfway through I realized it was all Al-generated. Just vague sentiment. Martin Luther King taught the world how to lead with grace. And he changed the world. And he was always there.

I don't like that sort of thing. I like to pick the movies we play every night myself. I think about it careful, I take other people's tastes into consideration, and I like movies. I want to do a good job of it. And if l've got to give a last-minute presentation about somebody, la like to be able to tell you where he lived.
