Yes. Someone has certainly gone too far and is, “Oblivious and loud. Shameless. Belligerent. Entitled.” Yes, that person should absolutely be shown that society will not accept their behavior, and that person is ThePhilosophyOfRape. He seems to be the only person actually posting in the subreddit aside from comments telling him how awful he is, which is as close to anything in this whole situation gets to something positive.
Please, Reddit, do something about this. I’m very much in favor of a site of user-generated content and freedom of expression, but that comes with a responsibility to make the hard (or in this case incredibly goddam easy) decision of what is acceptable as free speech and what cannot be tolerated. Reddit needs to be quicker about this process.
Massive trigger warning for rape and violence.

I hadn’t heard of this one, but I was already well aware of the general issue that reddit management is scummy as hell.

Maybe I’m just hopeful but to me it reads like a really, really, poor, ill-advised and mind-bogglingly stupid attempt at satire.
“We’re not talking about nuns or grandmothers or humble, married, women of twenty years." This sentence is what makes me think so. The whole article screams of troll.

Yes, probably troll/false, but that doesn’t make this stuff not harmful and malicious. It’s most likely a pseudonym for an existing user or a few, or just well appreciated in shithead circles, since it’s just a few days old and already promoted to moderator for [TW / mouseover for explicit text].
