(17,057 posts)About outrage to modesty . I am Indian and that is how they refer to sexual harassment in legalese here and I have frowned over that one.
Like the protagonist in Daphne DuMauriers Rebecca, I find modesty a confusing word.
Sure, I have verifiably (thanks to our lovely surveillance state - yeah I will do something about that) lead a very non-lurid life outside my one vice, drink and mind altering substances.
Hey dont judge me! You should see the shit I had to deal with! I am not defensive either!
And I am now on a regimen of medical marijuana and modafinil that works out well and keeps me away from alcohol which is a carcinogen.
But absent a civilized society I like to inform the meninists and creeps that a potty mouth, a penchant for ribald humor and a history of overindulgence in alcohol and substances, do not translate to: I 😍 creeps! Come over boys exploiting poor data hygiene!
This is a sexual harassment PSA since we no longer have any rules!
Because I am a very considerate woman, I feel obligated to communicate that surely it is not even in ones friendly neighborhood creeps own interest to encroach into the lairs of the immodestly belligerent!
I do feel bad for women deprived of even the resources I have to stick it to these douchebags. I will definitely do something targeted some day . Targeted so the non-creep bro contingent does not add to the nuisance by taking it personally and piling in grunting what about my right to be a thick-headed brute in my own lane? Huh? Huh?
Yes! In your own lane! Stay there grunting you Darwin Awards candidates..
But the creeps are another matter. They really make life difficult for working women. I have become a kind of auto-didact wrt a working understanding of creep and brute sociology
.
I am glad I have a sense of humor..this would have been far worse without it. It is extra scary since these hacker types I cant stand are probably part creep and part this grunting but non creepy types ..hopefully they are not all creeps. That seems unlikely based on my observation. But those are in surface interactions.
I would like to take the creeps out without that brainiac type also piling on. That is too many people. And some would be the type of unfortunate overworked techie who isnt either and has to pick up for those other shitheads and while underpaid. I feel sorry for those people too. The whole thing is a mess. I bet a lot of local ai is just exploitative gig work that should not exist.
The things one had to think about in this ghastly law of the jungle implementation that replaced what used to be a more civilized society (than this anyway) just 20 years ago..
Bloody Facebook and Google and their totally creepy worldview. Like they would totally maliciously pretend not to get it and be all well I dont want to be accused of being a creep..grunt grunt..here I will mangle up all your devices and now you should take a coding class to fix it! The hell I will. What I will do is efficient (!) low effort mockery of these transparently sleazy gambits. I am not taking a damn coding class and the old rules will be updated for this environment.
What did they think? That women will just meekly subside and walk into the various caricatures they game easily? It is a good thing that I am careful in complaint filing and will only target the truly creepy, malicious etc.
Didnt their own comic book people say something about great power and responsibility? Dolts..😤
Gotta be careful with that type. Who knows how much they understand of any of the data they extract and exploit. This is the full blown Idiocracy and it is not the Machiavellian types even..It is the pure boneheaded type that really worries me (creeps aside) as they would need to be talked down from laying waste to everything.
No exit means exhaustive guessing about what is on the other side and a careful, targeted pushback. A scalpel not a sledgehammer.
As for the rest it is a generally cynical crowd that projects and so pretty much everything is sus (except apparently hacking, data mining, snooping and being one layer above at the very least the least snoopy). Oh well
