If your delicate sensibilities can't handle reading this, imagine how these prisoners feel. This SHOULD shock you, and maybe that shock will motivate you to action against it.

I agree when it comes to the average person, but there should still be warnings for people who've been raped so they're aware.

You just said the word tho

EDIT: sorry, not trying to be snarky. You're right, but your misstep points out the problem

We're in a thread about rape, I think it's pretty clear not every comment in here needs a content warning.

Fair enough I suppose. I was talking to you about the general concept of warnings and such for sexual assault, and wasn't considering a broader audience.
