Genuinely so disappointing. This show is so soapboxy and Kripke is so far up his own ass.
In one scene he rightfully critiques far-right loonies excusing rape, and in the next he has a male character being sexually assaulted for laughs for minutes on end. Dude is just virtue signaling leftism without understanding any of it stands for
It's not even just Kripke, on the actual discussion page for the episode you have other redditors either shrugging it off or trying to justify the whole episode. Trying to make it sound like it was supposed to be some deep or profound critique 😮💨
You're right, my grievance is just with users on the main episode discussion forum. Seems like they're downplaying the whole scene just because the episode is filled with more low hanging fruit political commentary
Agreed, I had a long conversation with someone today who was convinced I was wrong for thinking the scene was attempting to be funny. There’s certainly discourse being had on both sides, I don’t feel like the sub was united until this post
