The authorities are assholes. They go for schools and churches and hospitals and courtrooms. They won’t bother with rape cases unless they’re an easy slam dunk. They hold grudges and weaponize their power over people they don’t like. They won’t target gang members when uneducated immigrants are so much easier.

Hangover in a nutshell

It’s painful how I struggle to distinguish reality from parody.

I read it. Without a doubt, they’re expressing the second. It explains how the community is disgusted by the doctor’s conduct during this emergency and the other medical professionals expressed alarm towards Kennedy’s endorsement of the situation.

The problem I see is in popular works of fiction, the scenarios seem too specific. Racism, rape, torture, whatever… they all start to come off as weird sorts of validation, wish fulfillment, or cheap shock content. Instead of satisfying a role in the plot, it subtracts from the immersion because you’re wondering if the author is into vore or whatever.

I think it’s good to have an outlet for these sorts of things. I just think it’s less about freedom of expression and more and audience reach, i.e., they didn’t get dark because it limits the demographic.
