sex sells, Henry Cavill in MOS saving a crew on a rig, 'quick... close up of his abs'... we even had that female interviewer gush all over him during the tours, sure it's way more common for men to see women in a sexualized way, but it happens.. I think when it's obvious, and it takes me out the movie is when I have issues.. I don't mind watching uncomfortable scenes that are cringe or wrong, because I know my own moral standard and realize it's a movie... but when I see character do something, that again, takes me out of the moment, I have issue... like Bond in Spectre, he forced himself on that lady.. I just, I just didn't like that scene, because I felt it was at odds with Bond's character from what we have seen before, it was just cringe... Connery and Moore did as much, but the way it was done, I could believe it that moment it worked.. it's like cancelling 'baby it's cold outside every Christmas' because some think it's aggressive but then praising WAP.
But who decides what's wrong and should people be attacked for that?
It's an attack to find humor meant to degrade people based on their skin color or gender distasteful? To think it has no place in modern society?
I didn't say it did. But that doesn't mean there aren't people who would actually attack people over that, insult them, wish death on them, tell them to hurt and/or kill themself.
I am sure you are capable of listing the numerous cases of people who have been so "viciously attacked", they harmed themselves. A list so long, it would compare to the amount of people of color, members of the LGBTQIA community and women in general who face all that, for simply existing.
I didn't say people harmed themselves for being viciously attacked. I said that there may be those who attack others and tell them to do those things. Do you argue otherwise? I don't see what using separate groups (disenfranchised groups etc.) to measure against adds to the conversation. Did I say it was longer or would rival that? Why would that change something?
First, you must define what an attack is. Because plenty of people who get push back online for being horrible, claim abuse. Second, why these things happen matter. If someone is telling someone to die online because they are a racist who spends their time racially abusing others online, I really don't care. Not saying it's right, I just don't care. If people are being abused for fighting for their reproductive rights, their skin color, their sexuality, their gender, I care. Because the former is a terrible person getting their just desserts, the latter is abuse with ramifications against human beings for their mere existence.
Insulting them, accusations of things that aren't true, trying to hurt them physically or emotionally, wishing death on them, telling them to hurt themselves and/or kill themselves.
When you write "accusations of things that aren't true" or "trying to hurt them physically or emotionally" this sounds like defenses used constantly by right wing groups and personalities. Those who are very much guilty of what they are being accused of, those who call for violence against others, and then find violence an issue when they are met with it.
The bible is a book written by men. It has seen been interpreted by men, who have constantly used it to their own ends for whatever they want. From war, to segregation, and other countless horrible things. Those are the facts.
Because people are very defensive of what they enjoy.
