it's just really apparent that people think it's okay to want pain but morally abhorrent to want to give it. sorry but the sadist gets to have fun too. it's actually pretty crucial to the process.

if I said I was going to a taekwondo class would you feel the need to tell me kicking people on the street is bad or.

It’s important that everyone understand that, when I say that I “like” a villainous character, what I in fact mean is that I consider them to be both cool and morally praiseworthy, as well as correct in their aims and methods and worthy of emulation by people in the real world. Just in case there was any ambiguity on this point.

I further elaborate that I consider them to be An Excellent Role-Model for Impressionable Children.

I almost neglected to mention that they are a worthy sexual partner and that I am aroused by everything that they do.

surely treating suicide as the most horrible forbidden thing possible and making it difficult to discuss candidly not only through social stigma but also the threat of kidnapping and forced drugging will prevent people from doing something that makes me personally uncomfortable

I am shocked at how many people don't have an actively hostile relationship with advertising

[dragongirlteeth]

I am skipping your ads as fast as I can. I'm skipping past your sponsor read. I'm muting the tv. I'm muting the tab. If they get too annoying I will simply stop trying to watch.

If advertisers can use every manipulative trick in the book to get me to buy their product, I am fully within my rights to do everything I can on my end to make their job impossible

me reading 1984 in high school every time the main dude would give a description of the only female character: big brother just kill this clown

this post struck a nerve with the misogyny fandom

If anyone would like to know exactly what winstons thoughts were when he saw Julia for the first time, I can give it to you. He saw her wearing a chasity belt (signifying that she had never had sex before) and he saw her as something to be defiled. One glance at her and he was so angry that he “could never have her” and that she would never give him the time of day because he was an old and ugly man. (She does give him the time of day later so he was mad over nothing). He is so mad that she is better and purer than he is (in his own words) that he describes exactly how he wants to rape and murder her. He describes in detail how he wants to strip her down, tie her to a pole, fill her full of arrows, rape her, and at the moment of his climax, slit her throat.

So yes, by the time the rats were put in front of his face I was damn well rooting for the rats.

Winston isn’t meant to be a morally perfect Jesus-like character, he’s meant to represent an average man with thoughts and feelings that have been so horrifically distorted they are almost inhuman due to the nature of an oppressive state.

I’m not going to go into detail, but you’re missing the whole point about what the state says reality should be. Winston enjoys thinking the opposite as both an adrenaline rush and a coping mechanism. If the state says be orderly, do not have sex for pleasure, do not display emotion, be “Good”, then of course his fantasy is going to be radically depraved and full of rage (a strong emotion) and the most violent behavior he can dream of. It is the exact opposite of what is allowed.

[prophylexis-deactivated20201113]

Yeah as a rape survivor (and having previously been married to someone that expressed on multiple occasions a fantasy of murdering me in an “intimate way”) I’m gonna have to pass. If violent rape-murder is “going against the system” then I’m pro-system at that point. Plus if those are the thoughts of an “average man” then y'all need to be in camps.

I read & relatively enjoyed 1984. I’m still very much allowed to be outright disgusted at the way his thoughts about Julia are written & don’t need to make excuses to justify it. It added nothing to the point of the book. Just like the child sewer orgy in IT: those scenes added nothing to their respective plots except outlets for the author’s sexual depravity.

Women are not punching bags for men’s anger at the state. If you think his thoughts are “justifiable” under ANY circumstance please do me a favor & cease interacting with anything I post entirely. I too exist under an overbearing government & grew up in a puritanical religious household where sex & pleasure were taboo & yet I STILL have never fantasized about raping & killing anyone.

Men raped & murdered long before governments existed. If you think that’s a reasonable response to “the state” & not psychopathic misogyny you need therapy.

[venusdryad]

people will straight face say shit like “when men are repressed they naturally fantasize about raping and murdering women” and then turn around and say feminists demonize men

it's worth understanding the way the massive increase in surveillance technology has affected children. keyloggers and internet trackers are already used throughout schools to constantly invade the privacy of students. security cameras, installed by schools and parents for "safety" can effectively track the comings and goings of students, and regulate them. the propagation of things like air tags and 'find my phone' gives parents access to constant surveillance of their children's location, based on devices which are essentially necessary to the social/mechanical functioning of their world.

the social position of children effectively amplifies all of the existing pressures of the surveillance state against them - and more often against specifically queer and racialized kids, and gives adults ever more power over them.
