I'm not defending anyone specifically, I'm defending EVERYONE against rape culture and the cycle of encouraging violence.
The idea that someone deserves violence IS the problem. People deserve clarity, a sense of self-awareness, a lifting up of intelligent responsibility to themselves and others.
"Corrective rape" or "corrective violence" won't bring anyone closer to a sense of empathy, or intelligent responsibility to the community and others.
At some point we have to get past these views that violence is useful, or a way to fixing things. Ultimately a better society has to be constructed, that takes effort and thoughtfulness over time... You can't violence your way to a better world. Ultimately you have to exercise, educate, communicate, and hence form the characters that you want to have in the world. That takes effortful care, not destruction and harm.
I don't think the prison system will change the Tate',s perspective, I don't think a beating will either. I think being raised in a better society probably has the best chance.
To my mind, it's not a society where certain people "deserve" violence for the violence they decided ithers deserve. You're just going to end up with a lot of violence and resentment if that's your model of life.
You need to have restorative, communicative, and peaceful forms of justice, rather than a punishment and retribution model of justice. Ultimately someone has to build the better world.
