I understand why you misunderstood, but bear in mind how unrealistic it sounds that young boys would be brainwashed into committing rape. I believed the exaggerated words were enough, you claimed that I truly believed the director would directly cause more rapes irl. That was a very bold accusation on your part, you took a really wild guess. I was talking more about victim blaming, apologists, glorification of the scene etc. btw No I don't think you contributed to rape culture, please tell me spesifically what I said that made you believe that. Of course the director did, and I don't appreciate that you reduced my accusation down to a mere insult and me pointing fingers. I even showed some examples since it wasn't enough that they twisted the canon moment so brutally(there are actually unnecessary filler rape scenes quite often tho, it's misogynistic), apparently they were so horrible you need evidence to believe me. I understand why you defended him since you didn't know that, but please don't accuse me of lying. I did not put the words in his mouth. If you want the source of what the director said, google it yourself.
As someone who has been in your shoes, by assuming people would understood my jokes without me needing to explain it, I would recommend to always emphasize those moments in which you're not serious, for the sake of avoiding misunderstandings. The world is a big place and there are people who do believe in brainwashing by the media, so unless we point out that we are kidding then others have no way to know.
When you mentioned rape culture I thought it might be about me since you were vague in specifying to who you referred, but I did mentioned that if even if you were talking about the director that it was a little unfair to say he simply wanted to perpetuate rape culture.
What I gather from the evidence you showed me is that the director tried to make some strange attempt at making the sex scene have a stronger impact if he made Cersei struggle, but then completely succumb to her present desire. And it made an impact alright, but it wasn't the one he was expecting. He failed to deliver the scene properly, Cersei didn't show more clear consent to properly counterbalance Jaime's forceful advances, and as a result the scene can look as rape.
As I said before, I understand why the director wants to defend the editing he made for the scene, but I also understand how his vision was too vague for the audience to pick it up as he wanted. He's not trying to glorify rape, he made a bad choice of direction that created an unfortunate misconception about him, and now he has to clean up his own mess.
And sorry, but I if you expect me to believe that you didn't put those words in the directors mouth it's you that need to show me the evidence. You're the one who saw that article so you would know where to look. You don't have to do it if you don't want to, but I can't really believe such bold claims about the director if I'm not showing anything for it.
In case you're interested I found an article in which they talk about the scene with Lean Headey (Cersei's actress):

She also describes it as something messy and complicated, but that at the end of the day she does stand by it.
As an additional tidbit, did you know that during said scene while they focused only on the sibling in the floor that Jack Gleeson kept peeking down there? He removed his eye stones and just kept looking down to see what was going on, just lurking. I wonder if they would show him doing that in future bloopers.
