Hi Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, this ad is sort of kind of not OK and weird and kind of victim blamey and has other problems too.
Well this is disappointing.
FUCK the PLCB. How hard is it to tell folks, “DON’T RAPE PEOPLE.” I guess it’s impossible when your entire fucking culture is comprised of shaming women.
Goddamnit. I want a campaign that tells people not to rape people, and I can tell you what it looks like.
There is an average looking person. That person is behind bars. The text reads “DATE RAPE. SEE WHAT COULD HAPPEN WHEN YOU DON’T TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER.
There is a different average looking person. That person is being arrested. The text reads “DATE RAPE. SEE WHAT COULD HAPPEN WHEN YOU HAVE SEX WITH SOMEONE WHO IS INTOXICATED AND THEREFORE CANNOT LEGALLY CONSENT.”
There is an average looking person. That person is on trial in an orange prison jumpsuit. “DATE RAPE. SEE WHAT COULD HAPPEN WHEN YOU BELIEVE SOMEONE ‘OWES’ YOU SEX.”
There is an average looking house. There is red stamp over it that says “REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER LIVES HERE.” The text at the bottom of the image reads, “DATE RAPE. SEE WHAT COULD HAPPEN WHEN YOU SEXUALLY ASSAULT SOMEONE.”
Another winner. Let them know what you think of their misogynistic victim blaming here: http://www.facebook.com/PAAlcoholEducation
Atrocious. Talk about getting it wrong on so many levels.
What the hell Pennsylvania.
