Speaking of dehumanization and double standards, is there a reason NYT editorially calls Israeli captives, including IDF soldiers, “hostages,” and Palestinians locked in cages without trial (or kangaroo trails) “detainees”? Rather than using the more neutral “captives” for both?

When I paint vs. What I paint

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

I feel intense sadness over the Cornell rape situation especially because she did everything right. She reported it quickly and the campus police didn’t care, the campus admins didn’t care, she gave names and times and faces and they didn’t care

Ask a woman why she hates men, she'll tell you a horrifying story involving violence, abuse, and harassment.

Ask a man why he hates women, he'll complain about feminists on TikTok, gold diggers, and a girl who once friend-zoned him and wouldn't date him.

Insane things rape victims I've worked with as an advocate have been told by the police when they tried to report:

"It's a gray area because you said had a drink."
"If you woke up to a naked woman you would have sex with her, too, as a man. They sound like normal guys." (Her attackers gave her a concussion btw.)
"If he had bought you flowers would you still call it rape?"
"Sometimes men just misread signals."
"Everyone including you needs to take some responsibility here."
"Save your bedsheets for us to pick up later." (Years went by; they never did.)
"Do you really want to do this to your life and his life?"
"This is going to take years, have you thought about that?"
"[Date rape] isn't violent rape, like rape-rape."
"If you're reluctant to talk to us how do you think court is going to be?"
"Why would you wait a whole day to come here?"
"These guys don't sound like criminals."

And some police have pressured victims into going on a date or sleeping with them, didn't ever follow up or attempt to interview the guy, didn't arrive at the hospital until many hours after being called, refused to let a victim advocate be with the victim as required by Marsy's law...

Police indifference, hostility, and victim-blaming toward victims is the norm, not the exception, and the a key point these cases never even make it past reporting.

"False rape cases are ruining men's lives.”

Even real rape cases aren't ruining men's lives……

[‏ً @omgsidewalks]

Maybe I'm missing something. But why is "punishment" for the Cornell r@pısts being handled by the university and not law enforcement?????
