Batman like villain idea, a hormone expert decides to use his expertise in drugs and hormones to make actual love darts, and uses it to force bigots to love people,
Batman has to debate with himself wether to "save" a previous hateful KKK homophobe, who is now in a loving gay relationship with an ex neo bazi, who began doing the deprogramming work, and are trying to atone from their past. Because if he gives them the antidote, they might go back to hatred.
at the same time, there is a moral dilemma to love darts itself as a concept
is it technically rape?
i think yes if the darts make people have sex. otherwise it's like drugging people without their consent, so villain like
No, it's love. They're not sex darts.
is using a love dart to make someone fall in love with you technically rape of the mind?
Depends what kind of love. Love of your common men and women should be default. Why such hostility towards love?
just a fun thought experiment on the implication such an item suggests
But Imagine a love dart. It would basically immediately knock out whatever inherent racism and instill a deep empathy with the other person. I suspect for some they would still consider this a violation of some aspect of their sovereignty and they would still try to sue you for taking away their hate/ignorance.
Reading that, with all the change of heart those people had, I'd risk they would do something to punish themselves and atone for their past mistakes.
And that should be the objective of prison and judicial system: punish, yes, but reform nonetheless.
