A joke in poor taste no doubt. Call me crazy but I don’t think anybody “deserves” to get raped/killed. I don’t care what this guy did, it doesn’t justify doing unto them evil. Too many vindictive people out there conflate revenge and spite with justice. And to be fair, a case like this has no justice. The best you can do is lock the fucker up so he cannot harm anybody else, and do what u can to help the victim recover.
I do think it is interesting that your response to this was more in empathy with the rapists than it was the undermining the severity of sexual violence and ridiculing victims, and then went on to not even consider what the victim would want as justice.
No, people don’t deserve to get raped, but it is important to remember that they aren’t, this joke references the fact that rape happens in prison, not about whether it ought to be a punishment; I made the addition that it was for “the right people,” because I know that’s how they’d try to defend it. The real problem is, yes, that this belittles sexual violence and therefore trivializes the harm done to the victims; which is why men use jokes like this and why they think about the rapists before they do the victims.
