I think you really need to understand that it's a joke.
As I've said so many times, it's not a joke if you are literally asking. If you are in a boat and tell your GF that she shouldn't say no to you because of the implication, then that's not a joke. And if you come to a thread about banned deep fake sites and ask for the link it's not a joke.Even Dennis himself hides behind this logic that "obviously she is in no danger", but that ignores the real threats women have to live with every day. Women don't get to assume that every implication rape threat is a joke because the risk is too great, it always going to be real to the subject without power.
You already admitted in a different comment that some of the people here were looking for a link. So why exactly are you so upset at me? Is your right to assume it'd always a joke out ranked by my concern at yet another way for women to be sexually harassed? Before it was simply any woman who posted nudes online had to know it would be online forever. But now any woman who has ever posted, or hell even went outside where a camera was now runs the risk of her nudes being posted?
But I guess you feeling hurt over "jokes" is the real problem?!? Like seriously, let it tf go. The lame jokes don't need to be defended and I'm not the jolly joy villian you are making me out to be.
Jesus Christ you're even complaining about the joke being performed by an actor in a TV show now. You need help.
😂
Okay, now you are just taking the piss. The show is satire about horrible people doing horrible things. Absolutely everything the gang does should be criticized. I'm pointing at Dennis, not Glen.
Look, I'm done here and idgaf what you think, but I'll leave you with an idea. Go to a women in your life you trust, mom, GF, sister or whoever and tell them some lady on the internet was upset about deepfakes and you told her it was just a joke.
Exactly. The show is satire and you're getting upset at characters. They aren't real.
Women is plural. "A women" would be "a woman".
Lmao, nice attempt at a strawman, I never said deepfakes are just a joke. I said referencing a joke from a satirical TV show is a joke. Evidently that concept is proving too difficult for you.
Goodbye. I hope you learn to take a joke someday. What a grey and joyless life you must have.
Explain it however you like "some lady on the internet can't take a joke", or give her a link to this thread. Whatever, idc.
But you aren't going to, we both know that.
I'm not going to what?
Yeah. You can't take a joke at all. You're even complaining about TV characters being immoral. It's TV ffs. It's not real.
Mac is not a real person. It is an actor playing a role. He is a work of fiction.
