Dude thought it was funny and it is.... but women will never understand
"... and now he is "promoting rape". Things snowballed more ..."
I understand, it'd be unwise to conflate our criticism of the content this actor shared with unfounded accusations of other forms of misconduct
Unfounded accusations as grave as rape would take seconds to spiral out of control and tarnish one's reputation, jeopardize their livelihood, and inflict lasting emotional distress. They should be made if and only if sufficient and corroborative evidence exists to support the claims
"... people jump on the one less famous"
Public figures who haven't reached the pinnacle of fame and fortune are easy targets for disproportionate levels of criticism. They lack the clout and influence to defend themselves against negative attention
I try to avoid the selective application of criticism based on preferences or biases. Harmful actions are harmful, regardless of who performs them
Do u even use instagram? Its not a thing u can do by accident it's a multi step process
"... or a superficial understanding of what is truly valuable"
That's an important point to consider. With the ever-increasing prevalence of social media and celebrity/influencer culture, the focus has shifted from genuine human connection and personal growth towards materialism, external appearance, perceived social status, and instant artificial validation. Women are now more inclined to sell themselves, meaning to monetize their body and sexuality to achieve that instant validation
"I would like for people to listen and comunicate and be balanced/ have common sense, things would be better"
I can tell from the responses you provided to my comments that you approach issues with a calm demeanor and consider multiple perspectives. Your approach is truly commendable

"... people should be able to distinguish, I expect that from people"
In an ideal world, they'd be equipped with the capacity to discriminate between fact and fiction. That's not the world we live in. The average brain isn't conducive to the discernment. Most people lose themselves in the media they consume, and the result is a hazardous cognitive state easily influenced by false information
"... I mean the original source it's a battle royal, they kill eachother for money, they are violent and evil, the AV version should not be any better"
The "violence" in the source material was intended to evoke negative emotional responses of suspense, shock, and fear. The "rape porn" in question did the opposite and sexualized the "violence" for the purpose of arousal
The goal of "porn" is to arouse the viewer. Its depictions of "violence" against women as something to desire or pursue are more damaging than the depictions of "violence" in other genres (horror, thriller, mystery, action) where "violence" is depicted as something to be feared, avoided, or overcome
"It's not training people to see women that way because these people do have famlies mothers, their parent should parent, as long as their educated they should be able to make the diffrence"
At best, the women in their lives would be exceptions to the rule and not examples of how they treat women in general or other women outside of their immediate social circle
Education and parenting aren't enough to counteract the negative effects of media. Media itself should take responsibility for the messages it promotes

"... because women (even celebrities, in the west) have vulgar and indicent content (for money), under the excuse of sexual expresion and empowering women"
Women aren't immune to internalizing misogyny
The shallow and self-defeating "feminism" of liberal ideology that promotes "sex work" indoctrinates women into becoming collaborators in their own debasement and humiliation. It reduces women to passive vessels at the disposal of men's whims
I subscribe to a feminism that disavows the legitimization of "sex work." Ergo, I agree with your comment that men's and women's misogynistic actions should be analyzed and interrogated with fairness and impartiality
Dude thought it was funny and it is.... but women will never understand
Rape is rape. Art has power, and glorified depictions of rape, fictional or real, trivialize a horrific act that causes immeasurable harm to survivors, their families, and society at large
The survivors being fictional and "not real" doesn't change that the effects on the minds and hearts of the consumers of these images are real. The consumers aren't "having harmless fun." They are training their minds to see women as playthings. The more they consume, the more their perception of women becomes distorted
The preferred content people consume in the privacy of their own homes might not be appropriate for public dissemination. If the inappropriate content encroaches on shared spaces and generates discomfort, I will speak up to defend the rights of those adversely affected
Also if you think you spotted a misogynist because of this scandal (as if other people don't watch porn/aren't…
For those of us with clear eyes and a firm grip on reality, we understand that misogyny is everywhere. It's predictable, but still disappointing to have it confirmed over and over again
Canceling him over this little thing is so dumb, like, actual criminals are getting praises rn LOL
It's not dumb, I'd say it's unavoidable
Given the skeletons celebrities have been hiding, it was a matter of time before we find out what immoral or illegal activity they've been up to when the cameras weren't rolling
Not every person watches porn, or considers it normal.
Blocking me is the sign of a fragile ego, you're projecting your narcissism and insecurity onto me. Unlike you, I don't need to block out dissenting voices to feel secure in my views. My stance is solid, and I'm not afraid to engage in debate
Not every person watches porn, or considers it normal.
Getting an upvote is playing dirty, and defending an exploitative industry isn't? Your moral compass is irreparably damaged, and you're beyond help. No amount of logic, reason, or sympathy will teach you what you're missing
You grew up in the 90s? Congratulations, you grew up in the era of dial-up Internet and VCRs. "Porn" wasn't accessible on every device. Times have changed, and so has the effect of "porn" on society
There's a difference between healthy "sexual" expression and unhealthy "sexual" expression (e.g. an industry that profits off the degradation of women's bodies). Your pro-sexuality propaganda has blinded you from seeing the difference
why the actor apologizes?korean aren't religious country anyway aren't fully traditional country anywayfeel free…
"kdramas always trespass the boundaries and norm"
Trespassing boundaries/norms? They're tripping over them and landing flat on their faces!
Men raping women and society making light of rape in the name of entertainment are as normal as the grass being green. If anything, "rape porn" reaffirms existing norms and perpetuates violence against women
Most rapists are men, most "porn" addicts are men, and the "porn" industry? Run by men, for men. I'd worry about men first
I'm all for women realizing that men are walking embodiments of their worst nightmares and going their own way
I understand, it'd be unwise to conflate our criticism of the content this actor shared with unfounded accusations of other forms of misconduct

There’s something off about them
To be specific, "straight" identifying men run the "porn" industry. They call the shots, set the standards, and dictate the narrative for women
There's a difference between healthy "sexual" expression and unhealthy "sexual" expression (e.g. an industry that profits off the degradation of women's bodies). Your pro-sexuality propaganda has blinded you from seeing the difference
