(17,671 posts)Has that occurred to you? If people get an emotional charge from speaking out about the problem it will never go away. If organizations make a profit from it, it will never go away. In fact, do you even know what "rape culture" is? One poster in this thread has already tried to research it and had no luck. Look at the words; rape and culture. We all know what rape is, but what is culture? Culture is a collective way of thinking. The phrase offers a perfect moving target for perpetual umbrage and a bottomless revenue stream for academics and assorted bloviaters everywhere. You should be immediately suspicious any time you see the word "culture" preceded by a noun.
The people that profit most from this culture war bullshit are the people that own the media and communications corporations and they are followed closely by the people that churn out reams of hyperbole pushing others to either love themselves or hate somebody else. And the 1% laughs all the way to the bank.
