I wonder if any of this is a conscious act of resistance vs. just incompetence. And yes, I've heard of Hanlon's Razor haha https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_razor

They also obscured the male perpetrators faces and bodies in many images, illegaly.
I assume that de facto federal "law" now makes it illegal to be raped, and those men are the victims. That would be a logical conclusion of edgelord vice signalling, right?
