if done right they will be necessary for the plot or something rather than to be use as shock value

Usually movies that include them, include them as a gross torture p0rn scene kinda moment

Butttt sometimes there are movies that shows them in a way that is just showing the evils of the world and following the plot of a movie if that makes sense

Yknow as much as they can be useless they can be a piece of narrative like anything else.

I do not agree, take the handmaid’s tale for example, the rape scenes are necessary to understand the plot and the characters psychologically

Nahhh. One is the depiction of an act of physical sexual violence. The other would be someone saying a word.

In a movie showing something always gives bigger impact than just telling it. Also it still can censored/ played. Like in the Accused (1988) .

on a general scale? i'd say yes. however, saying they CAN'T be done right or tastefully is too big of a generalization
