Exactly. Randall Munroe turns 40 before the end of this year.

Scraping the bottom of the barrel, I guess?

Edit: In the 80s, children were seriously evaluated for learning disabilty if they could not read cursive, as it was considered a developmental necessity. They didn’t joke around with this back then.

They’re claiming that the outcry, should legitimate issues be present, would have a different wording.

Thank you, this is the correct interpretation.

The Diary of Anne Frank was written by a Jewish girl during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands.

There are unabridged entries in her diary in which she wrote about going through puberty and made certain specific observations about her maturing body.

OP made reference to these entries and wondered if they happened to be in this adaption:

Has anyone here seen this version? Does graphic novelization mean it’s graphic as in nsfw? The unedited diary does have a lot of sexual content.

Hence my reply.

If these were included in the adaption, there would be accusations of CSAM (graphical depictions of an underage girl exploring her body), public grooming (teaching kids that this is acceptable), and it would be aimed pointedly at Jewry (the Jewish people).

Edit: grammar

The Jewish community. It’s not a vulgar or derogatory term.

I would assume the accusation and headline would be much different if there was any kind of direct link to support a claim involving Jewry, CSAM, and public grooming.

Hanlon’s Razor has been weaponized too many times

And the rich, affluent, and powerful are thankful for it.

An act of malice is a crime.
An act of stupidity is specifically not.

Whom does Hanlon’s Razor benefit?
An accosted’s peace of mind, or an accoster’s ass?
