Seeing as the forums seem to turn to "Hey guys, it's me, Nameless Fucktard #2487223, I'm back!", stupid questions about whether things are derogatory/legal/sports or goddamn anime, I guess it's up to me to add a little conflict to this place. So, speed round on interesting things I noticed in the week, mainly through binge-watching Youtube to see what happened. Anyhow, several interesting things I want your opinions on, mainly for the purpose of arguing with you!
1. Charle Gard is a baby that was diagnosed with mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome. Basically, he's blind, deaf, has severe brain damage and lots of organ failure. His parents wanted to keep him alive to try some experimental treatment that was very unlikely to work, but the NHS refused to keep him going on account of all the additional suffering, and so far the courts have agreed its inhumane to extend his suffering when in all likelihood this is it for him. The NHS then refused to let the child go home with the parents in fear they'd abscond. The Pope and Trump all spoke on it, plus there was a shit ton of news, so you know the story. If not, use google. Anyhow, whose in the right, and where is the line between parental control and government control? The government shouldn't let a paedophile rape his kid sure, but it shouldn't be getting involved if a parent lets a kid watch a violent movie. Where's the line?
2. Some kid got in trouble for ordering a sex doll made to resemble a kid. Details don't matter. Anyhow, child porn. What's the line? Honestly, I'm not even entirely sure. Some of you insane fuckers will probably be OK with direct child porn, but what if it doesn't even show a real child, like a cartoon, or a story, or even a drawing? If there's no child harmed in any way, should it still be banned? How childish can something be before it hits the line? I've seen a lot of creepily childish anime stuff that seems to be allowed. Answers, people. Answers.
3. There was some concert in Sweden where there was a shit ton of sexual assault called Bravala. Well, four rapes and twenty three sexual assaults, which now that I think about it isn't too many sexual assaults in the grand scheme of things, but I guess that shit's under-reported to a great deal. Anyhow, that shit was canceled for the next year, and now they're holding a man-free music festival. Is that shit sexist, or just protecting women, or...? Throwing me opinion in, because I never seem to do that, that all seems incredibly sexist and pretty much insults any men who've had that shit happen to them, or pretty much any men who don't sexually assault, but yeah, your opinions.
Anyhow, those are things, please be interesting and respond rather than continuing to discuss the use of canines in war or whatever the fuck.
