People act like Trump's 2005 remark was so horrible, and yet, if we delved into the past of some of the people here....you'd find much worse things that were said.

Like don't even act like you didn't trash talk on Xbox 360 using female body parts and stuff to joke around.

The word 'politics' is derived from the word 'poli' meaning many, and the word 'ticks' meaning blood sucking parasites.

one of my favorite things was back when eSports were just starting to get big and you'd hear pro players who speak English as a second language casually use the word rape during an interview. They'd say "Oh yeah, we were getting raped in the first round" and then go on speaking as the interviewer doesnt know wtf to do lol

Yup, and they were offensive jackasses for using it then too. Same for the plethora of other "edgy" insults used by simple minded idiots who feel like the more obscene you are the more you "own" the other person. It's always been that way

This reminds me of the old debate over what is worse between murder and rape.

It's similar because we say "I'm gonna kill you" all the time in reference to winning. Or "we got killed" for losing.

1. This topic has nothing to do with Trump. Why even bring him up?
2. We should hold the president to a higher standard than people on GameFAQs.
3. He was three times the age of the average GameFAQs poster*
4. The issue isn't about the vulgarity but bragging about real events where he got away with sexual assault.

* Using the 2006 poll here: https://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/2323-how-old-are-you
and the 2003 poll here: https://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/1386-how-old-are-you
the average age in both 2003 and 2006 was ~18, so we can assume 2005 was around the same as well. Trump was 59, so 59/18 = 3.27 yadda yadda yadda

I don't know what your presidents age has to do with it (did he say it in this context? If so...I mean, context and all. I have no idea since this is the first I've heard of it).

I know it became very popular as a gaming thing, and to be honest found it utterly repulsive and so got sick of hearing it on XB360 Live. But it sort of spread from their and all ages of people started using it in other stuff...and some still do. I don't know why.

Yeah, it's pretty weird. You can say you murdered someone all you want and no one thinks twice about it, but you say you raped someone and you're a thoughtless, insensitive piece of shit. I don't get it.

I remember one time I typo'd and put "raped" instead of "rapped" in a post and got Warned for it. I argued it all the way to the top and still didn't get it overturned despite clearly being a typo because "raped" didn't even make sense in the context of the post.

Pretty sure the primary definition of "rape" is the one that was used frequently in online gaming. Or the secondary. Either way, it's a very established usage that dates back much further than 21st century niche communities.
