Let's start the week with a simple message from UN Women.
Stop telling women how to live their life!
The continued focus of the media on telling women what to do reflects a wide-spread sexism in global societies.... it won't be stoped abruptly, but behind much prejudice is this assumed male right.
So, my friends, if you find yourself telling a women how to live their life ask yourself: have I the right to be offering unasked-for 'guidance' or 'advice'?
@strypey @nate Yes and no. From a legal or technical standpoint, all this is true. It is legally allowed, technically necessary. But this doesn't mean it's ethical and that it doesn't violate consent.
I can walk up to two people speaking in "public" to eavesdrop on their conversation. But just because I can, doesn't mean it's right. I can scrape endless pfp images from WhatsApp through their contacts API. But doesn't mean it's right.
So no, just because it's possible it doesn't mean "permission enough". It' just means that it's necessary and people have accepted the risk. Explicit permission is something different entirely. This is about consent, a human property, not about technological or legal constructs.
@divVerent @ArneBab @HeliosPi @DGI In the 1960s you had the Black activists and various Leftists getting armed and taking the 2nd Amendment seriously. California banned open carry because the wrong people (Black Panthers) were exercising that right.
So why doesn't the Left like guns? The Left was certainly armed in just about every country where the Left successfully came to power.
I just ran into a very very silly accessibility problem with Tumblr's alt-text UI:
it puts the "delete this image" button in the top right of the image, and the "add alt text" button in the bottom right.
So if your image is only 50 pixels or so high, you cannot add all text because the button to do it is UNDER the button to delete the image!
Yeah right.
So you are saying: If I beat you with a hammer until you allow me to f*ck you in the ass, that's not rape, it's consensual lovemaking.
I get it...
I find deliciously ironic that when the lawyers who brought the action asked for 230 million dollars in legal fees, the defendants said no, that's too much, but 65 million would be about right.
So the people who just gave back a ton of money because they had taken too much, are complaining the lawyers are taking too much. But they're only complaining to reduce amt from 230 to 65 because they know how the game is played 🤣
Everybody's in on the grift 🤣
It ain't their $, it's shareholder money 💰
