I am begging that one day we can stop comparing the consent models for opt-in/opt-out tech shit on the fediverse to literal rape

Every time something like this comes out there are countless posts talking about how consent works by discussing rape, at times in graphic detail, and I am so very very tired of seeing it being used as a shock device to try and drive home a point.

You can explain how consent works without bringing up devastating life experiences that people reading your post will have experienced.

@babe ung.
There's a certain kind of person who says they're progressive and liberal, but just for totally unrelated reasons they need to talk about rape/SA and put that image in your head.
