\"Legal Assassin: Up until \"Homer Badman\" and the video following it up, I personally thought that Mr Enter did a good job tackling serious issues with \"Screams of Silence\" and \"Peter-Assment.\" He knew what he was talking about and addressed the issues with all the seriousness that they deserved. But then came this review and I was raising an eyebrow. He basically demonstrates that he doesn\'t really know about rape culture (which is made all the more frustrating by his \"Peter-Assment\" review, which made it clear that he knows about the double standards about women assaulting men), citing the statistics regarding rape as bullshit, asserts that the very imperfect justice system can be trusted, and doesn\'t seem to realize the stigma against rape victims who don\'t fit into the \"perfect victim\" mould. This is best shown when he scoffs at the \"men should be taught not to rape\" line because everyone already knows not to rape. It ignores the fact that 1) the line was originally a rallying cry against the notion that it\'s the woman\'s responsibility to prevent her own rape, as many pamphlets on rape tend to have more detail on how not to be raped than what rape is or what consent is, and 2) while everyone knows what rape is, many have different ideas of what it looks like, the most prevailing being \"woman gets dragged screaming into a dark alley by a complete stranger and is raped,\" and that we should broaden our view of what it is. Overall, while I agree with Enter\'s point about not jumping to conclusions I feel the argument was one-sided and didn\'t acknowledge the other side.\"
This poster goes on & on about about Mr. Enter not talking about things even though he did talk about them & then he gets mad at him for not being sexist against men on the basis that the first (not the first) time the line (about teaching men not to rape) was said, it was in a nonsexist context so that somehow makes it not matter in any of the other cases.
\"abby-anne: While the review of Homer Badman was pretty tasteless, the follow-up video was even worse. Within the first few minutes, he acknowledged the elephant in the room - Bill Cosby being accused of rape by tens of women and still being defended - and claimed it was irrelevant because, y\'know, he doesn\'t want to bring politics and current events into a video where he dismisses rape culture. He followed it up by brushing off a plea for him to re-evaluate what he said because it came across as villainizing female rape accusers. He argued that everybody knows that rape and sexual harassment are bad, so we should offer more leeway to the accused and painted his critics as Straw Feminists. While Mr. Enter had said a few mildly sexist things in the past, this episode was so deeply misogynistic that I haven’t watched anything from him since.\"
This liar whines that Mr.Enter is sexist for not making the episode more about women than men & pretends the episode was just bursting with mysogeny even though Mr.Enter repeatedly emphasize the point that gender is irrelevant because rape is universally bad.
These people clearly just wanted excuses to complain about a video they didn\'t like but couldn\'t come up with a real criticism.
Edit: Here\'s another one.
\"Literal Novice: His needless incessant rambling aside, there is one moment in his review of \"Brian\'s A Bad Father\" that stuck out to me like a sore thumb, which was his overreaction to the gag about slitting wrists. It seems like he\'s under the assumption that a 14 year old is going to watch it and know how to slit their wrists like soccer moms whining that kids playing Grand Theft Auto is going to turn them into murderers. The people that watch Family Guy would be more likely to mock cutters than become one themselves. And even if a depressed 14 year old did come across this scene, I highly doubt it would start them cutting. I was a depressed 14 year old once and I came across images on the internet making similar jokes, and that didn\'t make me want to grab a razor. If anything, it made me not want to cut myself because of how pathetic it seemed. If Steven Universe or Adventure Time made a joke like this, it would be callous and gross, but it\'s quite in line with Family Guy\'s sense of humor. His anger over an edgy joke is honestly kind of pathetic and even a little bit insulting to insinuate that 14 year olds can\'t differentiate between fiction and reality.\"
Mr.Enter never implied that people would suddenly decide to cut themselves for the first time after reading this. He explicitly said that the problem with the joke is that it\'s directed at suicidal 14-year-olds who already wanna cut themselves & it teaches them how to effectively kill themselves while simultaneously mocking them for it.
