I won’t be watching it, these sorts of plotlines always cordon off actual SV victims from the media. It doesn’t matter how “tasteful” it is, it’s slop that ultimately trivializes SV for the profit motive
“I won’t be watching it because of a thing they show one time in the second season which i have a very strong opinion of despite having no knowledge of howit is portrayed in the context ofthe show, which, i won’t be watching”
The fuck is wrong with you? What are you arguing for? Do you want me to watch it? It doesn’t fucking matter how it’s portrayed. The setting, genre, and the company who made it itself trivializes the portrayal of SV. I say the same shit about Tasha Yar in Star Trek.
I really don’t think that’s the take you’d come away with after actually watching the show.
It’s not doing the Game of Thrones thing at all.

Obviously I cannot speak for other SV victims, but for what it’s worth I did not personally find the attempted SV scene to be triggering at all.

To back you up, the SV scene did lead nowhere, since the character gets magically “fixed” by killing (one) of her torturers.
It’s a common and awful trope, like oh yeah PTSD is just this thing that dissipiates with vibes.
