Idk man, I'd rather just have a poster that says:

REGARDLESS OF AGE, WEIGHT, OR GENDER

A PERSON CANNOT CONSENT WHILE INTOXICATED

YOU WILL BE CHARGED WITH RAPE,

YOU WILL BE BARRED FROM HIGHER EDUCATION,

YOU MAY SERVE PRISON TIME,

AND YOU MIGHT EVEN BE FORCED TO LIVE IN A

SEPERATE NEIGHBORHOOD AMONGST

OTHER SEX OFFENDERS FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

In big bold red letters on a white background. If the people seeing it don't understand after that, then they're a lost cause.

Nah. 18 year old me would read this and think... everyone I know is getting drunk and having sex all the time, but I don't know anyone that's been charged with rape and never heard of people forced to live on whatever rapist neighbourhood.

Sorry that's just not how communication works.

If you're trying to tell someone something, making dramatic claims just undermines your credibility.

The logic you're using could be used to defend any number of stupid illegal activities, it's got a real hardcore SovCit vibe.

This is a very generic retort. Are you... a bot ?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Maybe you're the bot and you don't even know it.
