Personally, I would imagine that the real issue with THIS ARTICLE is the picture they chose to forefront it. Why would they choose that one? Rage engagement, to drive engagement and ad revenue, because it has been proven time and time again, that divisiveness brings money. There is a lot of coverage about her and her bravery, as it should be, because she is a massive hero.

If we choose any other posts about the case, that don't drive themselves on such divisiveness, and and consider the top comments, we can see that the focus is where it should be, on her story and his conviction, yet they rarely get as much engagement as this one.

It is manufactured ragebait to feed the algorithm, using divisiveness as its drive. And it is both succeeding, and taking away from the real point, her story and the support and help that she, and all rape victims deserve.

In the context of this comment section, and the image that was chosen to lead the article, it is not disgusting and it simply makes sense.

She is a fucking hero, she is brave and she gives hope to us rape victims. But if on the same breath you praise her and the people who support her, and dismiss a fuckton of rape victims just because the perpetrators of their particular rapes were women, then that is bound to raise a significant level of discomfort and take away from what the story should be, giving support to the victim of The Beast of Avignon and all rape victims, encouraging them to come forward.

I would prefer to say, nobody deserves to be raped, and as long as people keep giving that flawed statistic that harms both male and female victims of rape, I have no reason not to share it.

That kind of disregard is what keeps most female child rapists out of jail, or nets them far lesser sentences.

No thanks, this pic gets me great enough results as it is.

Nice try from an overly quoted study done on bad faith, here is a better one that shows, with sources, that said study is incorrect.

Men and women being victims of sexual abuse, perpetrated by both men and women. It is not a genderlocked issue.

Based on this(https://sh.itjust.works/comment/14310375) comment by them, further down the thread, seems like you were correct. Hope the mods do something about that bigoted asshole, whom I already reported.
