I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe... [laughs] POC ponies harassed by anons in the depths of Derpibooru. I watched racists hissing in anger near the Deviantart gate. All those... moments... should be lost in time, like [coughs] tears... in... rain. Time... to log off...

I mean, I'm sure the Molestia ask blog counts as parody on some level or another.
Speaking of which, if this is the Molestia and Gamer Luna blog, then the whole thing is more fetish material than dark comedy anyhow.
Not that it really excuses it of criticism, but what little of it I read felt less like I was reading something where rape was a punchline and more like the world was a porn and Celestia was the star player and director.
Doesn't seem our author avatar is being quite "playful" & "silly" with that decapitated head?
I think that was parody.
I don't think that would excuses it.
I think there's a big difference between black comedy with regards to violence and with regards to sexual assault. It's not just a matter of if the action is portrayed as acceptable.

Well, that would still undermine the comic as it's taking the "portrayal" route while basically comparing apples to oranges if the expectation is we should feel different about these topics in comedy.
Honestly, this "drawing lines in the sand" in regards to what's acceptable and what is not in regards to what sources we can draw humor from discussions always seem to get a tad ridiculous. It has this really strange wanting to have cake and eat it, too vibe.
People who make posts about reaching a certain amount of notes for attention are dumb. It's almost like a blog version of Deviantart where they value pageviews and shit like that.

I'm still just scratching my head at the fact that Joseco's Molestia blog is getting all this flak two years after it began...
I remember Neil Cicierega taking fans to task over that blog... it was at least half a year ago, if not longer. It's been an issue for a while. It's just that some blogger had a somewhat troubling experience as a consequence and decided that she'd had enough, which started a wave. I would also like to point out that the person who drew the comic seen above is, if I am not mistaken, a good friend of said blogger.
The original shared anecdote is honestly pretty disturbing, by the way...

I think a movement to try to get the blog to some sort of "adult tumblr" status would probably be the most appropriate measure here. I felt like I maybe needed a hot shower with lots of soap after reading a little of it.
I'm not sure how accurate the "it's a comic that makes rape a joke" label is, but it's certainly a rather skeevy piece of work that should at least require lying about one's age to access.

Well, being labeled "NSFW" would be appropriate. It would suck to have to explain why that cartoon horse is demanding her ass be worshiped to a manager.

Having actually looked at pinkiepony's blog now...it doesn't seem all that bad. She had a bad experience, and she's basically just saying "let's, as a fandom, say 'this is not ok'" and asking people to donate to charities that support rape survivors.
It's everybody ELSE that's blown the whole damn thing out of proportion.

It's certainly not the sort thing that requires the amount of attention it's gotten.
I think the blog (once again, assuming this is the Ask Molestia and Gamer Luna blog) should be sequestered off to a slightly darker corner of the web. Not sure about the fandom rising up and to collectively shut it down.
Problem is, it sort of occupies the same realm as fan-service heavy, unrealistic mangas and doujinshis, it's just not really properly labeled as such.
all I know is that he's a sexist prick but that people seem more interested in "lol he shoved a banana up his ass" as if that's the problem with the dude.
or small penis jokes. pretty sure he'd be just as much of a terrible person if he had jonah falcon's cock, guys.

That's from my own experiences, and I wasn't trying to mock Naney. That's probably obvious, but just verifying it to ease my own neuroses.
That said

The whole thing gave me Vriska flashbacks.
But yeah, cute art. And the scene with the glass window was really well done.

Pity that the former's the main character.

But if you're so set on it, then go ahead and play the game. It'll only waste half an hour of your life
