    America: A Pro-Rape Country?

    Trigger Warning: This article contains graphic discussion of sexual assault, child sexual abuse, rape culture, racism, lynching, religious abuse, exploitation, violence against women and children, and references to alleged abuse by public figures.

    Releasing the Epstein Files should be a no-brainer for Republicans, who have long claimed to be the party of morality. As it stands, the United States is on the precipice of igniting World War II, food and gas prices are astronomical, and America just isn’t that great place again, that it never was to begin with. While other countries, specifically those that are racially homogenous, have the infrastructure and social programs which support its communities, the U.S., once a bastion of at least technological advances, is lagging far behind on the healthcare, public infrastructure and educational fronts compared to other developed nations, and the Republicans, the party of ‘moral superiority’ is left with the price tag of upholding an image that continues to sink lower into the bowels of the wrong side of history, including committing the most unlawful act against man and their God. 

    Without saying the quiet part out loud, Republicans ‘ok’ rape, because they know that America was built on it, and seeing as how little girls possess no more power than their mothers’, their rapes aren’t really considered tragic either—well, sorta. A bedrock of the creation of the KKK was preserving the purity of white women and protecting them against the sexual violence of Black men… not white men. The punishment for Black men raping white women or being accused of it most certainly started with an oak tree and ended in a pine box. White men weren’t tarred and feathered for raping White women, let alone accused of it, and they surely weren’t being punished for raping Black women. Rape is not wrong if it is done by a white man. In fact, white men raping is how shit gets done—ask Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, a man accused of sexual assault, but tasked with preserving the sanctity of the highest letter of American law. 

    Christopher Columbus, the hero who “discovered” the “New World,” as if history only starts when white people write shit down, made no bones about his destruction of bodies, and even gloated about it. Following his discovery, religious outcasts soon came to the Americas, seeking asylum for their beliefs; escaping religious persecution from believers of the same God. Despite nuances amongst sects of Christianity, they all believe the earthly image of God could only come to be via a teenager’s pregnancy by the omnipotent God, as if he couldn’t just snap his fingers and make a human like he did the first time. Those people are not going to see child rape in a way that frames it as nothing but another necessary evil, and even necessarily divine.

    America’s church culture and desire to appear like a nation purposely chosen to represent God have always swept child molestation under the rug. Child sexual abuse is more pervasive in places that preach purity, and the problem is handled by moving the offender and not removing them or turning them over to authorities, setting a standard that if it occurs with the stamp of God’s will, then it is more unlawful on paper than in practice. Child brides are not the result of atheism; they are Mormon and FLDS, child abuse without the use of marriage occurs in other sects of Christianity, primarily found in the Roman Catholic, Southern Baptist and Methodist churches. 

    CNN did an investigation into the world of “sleep porn,” in which men drug their wives and either rape them or allow others to rape them.

    Recently, CNN did an exposé on the website Motherless, which has been described as a rape academy. A website with over 60 million hits a month, Motherless is basically a rape archive, featuring video of men raping their unconscious partners and even giving each other tips on dosing to render them unconscious. Consider that one of the most popular and longest-running shows in American television history is about catching child molesters, that still makes rape a source of entertainment. Even if the basis of the stories is solving the most heinous offenses, it still means that stories of women and children being raped and murdered are continuously written about creatively.

    Rape has been an economic benefit in American history.

    When slave owners had a problem with inventory, they could just go and rape their way into a more profitable bottom line. White men’s own lineages have never been safe from their destruction. Rape is nothing but a sexual exhibition of power to white men who view themselves as the most powerful under God. 

    Americans and humans worldwide with actual moral standards watch as the inferno of the world is encouraged by the piss of a pedophile. They are continuously confused that the party of purity would pick someone who was accused of raping children, admitted to walking in on teenagers undressing, admitted to grabbing women’s genitalia, was found responsible for sexual assault and accused by over two dozen women of sexual assault. White men’s desires, even if they are children, have always found safety here. Laws making the age of consent over 10 are only about 100 years old, depending on the state. White men love Trump because he represents taking from the small and not feeling guilty about. Taking has always been what white men find the greatest about this country; that’s the part they want to make great again, the taking shit.

    America is pro-rape and always has been, and the American wet-dream sourced its moisture from the tears of those who had something taken without being asked.
