Hot take on "non zero sum" manhwa, haewon should've unalived himself
Okay so me and gang were discussing "non zero sum" manhwa. Ofcourse we were cursing the author for writing this sick bullshit and the artist for drawing this sick bullshit and shit escalated quickly where I ended up saying "haewon should've unalived himself. Atp he is walking into that living hell all by himself like what's more nightmarish than living like a fucking rape toy. Either run or kys cus running away can't be more harder than bearing with this bullshit?" And gng got all mad at me like "how can you blame the victim over here, haeyoung is clearly manipulating him, he is traumatised and all that, you would've known if it was happening to you." And we ended up arguing. It was so clearly stated in the manhwa that haewon is aware of what's happening with him under the pretext of "this is what friend do" he is aware that he is being abused and raped constantly and that haeyoung is manipulating him yet he keeps running to him.
However, now I am starting to question myself. Were my thoughts really insensitive here? (I js thought that if I was haewon, I'd actually kms, so I'm not sure about others) What do you think?
This isn't even a hot take whenever a rapey manhwa comes out everyone suggests that the mc should off himself and I lowkey started finding that route very boring its like making a character suffer then not knowing how to handle the character after the suffering happens and just kills them on some "he couldn't handle it" type shi like no, suicide is...... reply
The rapists should die here, not Haewon. Also to better understand victims, it's not that they're "unable to leave" It's that they can't. I've read some parts of it to make this opinion, and he literally can't. He gets punished for even a day of ignoring ML. He keeps also running because he cherish them and is on this mindset that his friends can c...... reply
I find it very weird how these disscussion always boil down to "mc who suffered through abuse should just kill themselfs" since victims should only die and never heal right? either way whats the point of reading that story when we all know how its gonna end 2 reply
I don't get why ppl read those things and want the VICTIM to die? R u fr? Shouldn't u be thinking shit about their abusers??? By ur logic, every SA victim should just kill themselves and never heal right? "If i were xyz, I'd have off myself" do u even realise how insensitive and cruel that sounds to victims?? reply
You saying that he should just 'kill himself' is so fucking heinous and the fact you don't realize it is either an identifier of your maturity or your level of privilege.
This is the reason why I always say ppl should avoid this type of works not because it's bad but because it legit desensitizes you so bad reply
