Regarding the flagged comment, analogies are inherently flawed. Theft and rape contribute differently to the overall picture because they are different, not necessarily because of hypocrisy.
Regarding glorification of theft in fiction, it's usually either the gentleman thief stealing from the rich, or rarely the likable pauper using street skills to get a loaf of bread. I don't feel like these meaningfully contribute to any notion that "it is alright to [steal] as much as you want", nor to typical smash and grabs.
- mechanical_bear 5y agoYou are definitely correct that analogies are inherently flawed. I suppose to be more direct, is Victim blaming ever the right course of action?
