  • I have often wondered about the boundaries of horror art… or more precisely, the lack thereof.

    There is “tasteless” and there is “should probably be illegal”. I may be wrong and all art should be allowed and criticism should reign, I don’t know. But you mentioned Terrifier, a film that was marketed as the one making people vomit and pass out in movie theaters.

    I don’t see the benefit here… for anyone. I see cheap exploitation and majorly creatively bankrupt gimmicks.

    I, like you, am also no horror prude, and I sometimes even explicitly seek out gory films. I have a soft spot in my heart particularly for the V/H/S series, which are fictional representations of what are basically snuff films. They don’t make me vomit and cry and shit my pants and dream about clowns murdering me in my sleep, though. I prefer it that way, personally.

    Also fuck r@pe in horror movies. For every time it’s tastefully done, it’s done in the most degrading and unnecessary way possible 100 more times. Graphic depictions of sexual abuse almost always evoke in me disdain for the director or creator rather than any involved emotion regarding the film itself. I’m looking at you, “I Spit On Your Grave” and basically every other "r@pe revenge* film.

    I feel you, comrade.








  • Genuine question. Has there ever been targeted oppression of asexual people in AES states?

    I do not mean to diminish the struggles of asexual people by saying this, but them lumping all ‘gsm’ people together like this and saying we as a group experienced similar or the same types of oppression under proletarian regimes seems blatantly ahistorical. Lesbians were treated far differently than gay men who were treated differently than asexuals who were treated differently than trans and gender non-conforming people, etc. etc.

    Poor ace person brainwashed into supporting dictatorships that hate them

    Genuinely, in 2024, where in the dprKorean constitution or legal structure or even cultural zeitgeist is this violent acephobia so evident? Does the DPRK “hate” ace people? China? Russia, or even fucking Iran?
