India comedy crew All India Bakchod do a bit about India’s rape culture. Are you working the late shift and walking home alone? Are you not fighting back? Do you hate yourself? Are you wearing clothes? Don’t you know men have eyes? Rape? It’s your fault. As the video goes on the women are increasingly bruised and bloodied.
Is this ok? Sarcasm and rape as a tool for social commentary is seemingly effective to some and offensive to others, but in India, it’s not a game. The bit is well played, like choking down a fist full of Krokodil dipped in chocolate. After the jump, there’s an afterword from Bakcod’s co-founder, Gursimran Khamba @gkhamba .
