Doxxing Files |OT| Do not use a pandemic to make a platform wars thread

I don't think this is the perfect solution, but I got a baseball bat. I have never hit anyone with it; I don't intend to. However, if you get those hard defensive bats, you can scare people away by smacking the ground or a garbage can. In this case, it worked to send him walking off elsewhere. This is not ideal, again. I didn't then grab him and take him to get help or to a shelter as maybe I could've. But... I will say that the experience gave me quite a bit more confidence in my ability to handle potentially violent situations and de-escalate them, at least in the mild threat level of "unstable aggressive homeless person" Also, mind you, I'm not particularly intimidating looking. I'm average/nerd/dude. I'm in glasses. I'm no real threat. But a bat, loud noises, and yelling? It's just primal shit, and we're all kind of programmed to respect it. It works!

 I'm trying to illustrate the point that even in the cases where it seems like we ABSOLUTELY need the police, I submit that we really don't, even. Whatever meager things we can do to de-escalate is at least as good as what the police would do;

I don‘t think that most courts agree that charging at someone with a bat is de-escalating the situation

So sad.  A homeless women who probably has no home to go home to sets up residence in your backyard and all you think about is her being a thief. 




Perhaps a reminder of Phil Connors trying to save his homeless, estranged father will remind them to care for your neighbor unless they are republican.

I don't know the people involved enough to speculate about what's going on, but consensual relationships between adults aren't a #metoo thing.

I can see why some people on Twitter are trying to make it about "power dynamics" between people already in an industry and being industry famous and people trying to break into the industry and / or being huge fans of the industry famous people, but that's not at all the same thing as casting couches for people making hiring decisions, or things like teacher / student relationship dynamics.

(age/2)+7 is a good rule for people to not appear creepy, but its not an actual law and if people of legal age of consent want to fuck people older than their parents because they're star struck, that's not 'predatory' or 'grooming'.



The more people abuse the terms for actual messed up interactions to cover regular ass shit like bad relationships or bad decisions made, the more the whole point of the movement gets diluted into becoming a joke

what do you do with louis ck, where he always asked them first and appears to have rightfully taken no for an answer multiple times, but the very asking is a little bit sexual harrassment

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

I agree, I just don't think they will go back into hiding. The jack is out of the box, they smell that they can be assholes again, and it's not just in the USA, it's.. EVERYWHERE including in Asian countries and South American Countries. But it also is a good thing, now we can identify and go after them. Not let them crawl into hiding like they did after the Second World War. Where they started to hide behind laws and secret gatherings (if your in Europe) or just claiming other bull shit about "equal but apart" in the USA (or whatever these fucks thought off while dressing up in bed-sheets to kill people!).

If they are out in the open, we can hunt them. And this time we just need to be really thorough. Sad as it may be, since these fucks will abuse anything to get what they want (from "it's just a joke" to "I wanted to get out"), it does mean it'll be a lot harder to get well meaning people that want out of the cult.. out. And yes it is a cult, they even make sure you cannot leave very easily. Under the threat of violence and alienation. It is also why they don't care about acting like they are "wanting to get out" when they aren't. It further alienates those that DO wish to leave, that DO not agree, as they get fearful for the people that wish to help them.

But we must clean this shit. We allowed them to fester, we allowed them to come back.. and we allowed ourselves to forget and not teach stuff to kids as it was "uncomfortable" to talk about. We allowed the right to play with these Monsters, which they thought they could contain, when clearly they cannot.

So no, let's not hope they keep them to themselves, let's hope we can either clean it all up, and educate those that we can safe. It going back into "hiding" is not a solution! They'd still get into politics and harm minorities of all kinds with their poison if we allow that. We cannot go back to what was considered "Normal", for those that were privileged. Until that same normal of the privileged can be for everybody and not just their group.

I dunno; asking once isn't really harrassment, even though it's probably inappropriate.
If anyone had said "What? no. NO, jfc dude what's wrong with you?" or similar and he persisted, then yeah, that's harassment.

There's an argument to be made about the role of women in society and a longtime culturally instilled need to not 'rock the boat' that muddies it somewhat where someone can feel pressured into saying yes when they want to say no, but I don't think it's helpful for society to start going down the lines that any sexual discussion between men and women is by default male sexual harassment.
Like, there's a difference between asking someone and doing it versus dude in a trenchcoat leaping out and spraying some rando passerby with jizz, even if the place of actual gratification is basically the same.

[porkbun]

I listen to a good number of comedy podcasts and it seems like a lot of them are fucking or doing other sexual activity with each other.  It's not like your boss at Wal-Mart asking you to watch him jerk off.  Louis was basically asking friends/acquaintances in his circle of comics to watch him. Yeah, it's weird and creepy to most people, but to rank him the same as someone like Cosby and Weinstein is ridiculous.

I dunno why era are so mad, the math checks out using their own formulas

if a nation n is comprised of the people p, and p = number of individuals i multiplied by racism per individual r.
If black people can't be racist, then the value of racism r will always equal 0 when p = (r*i).

So Rn(p) == i*r == 0, and will always equal 0 whenever p(B)>0

For anyone living under a rock, Marques Brownlee is one of Youtube's biggest stars

No one over the age of 16 knows who any of these YouTube "stars" are and even those that do won't care about him a couple of years.  I don't really get YouTube tars, Instagram influencers, but I respect the hustle and he probably realizes he has to make money while he can.

Closing Twitter/Insta accounts in itself isn't that big of a red flag to me, people can be incredibly annoying even if you didn't do shit (as we've seen time and again).
It's not a good place to "engage" any kind of controversy like this, if you're on the receiving end.

But they mention his behavior being known etc etc, so i think more will come out.
So far it's all very vague, the woman with the framed pic i admit left me also a bit , so the sticking point to me is mostly the sleazy moves with the 16 years old, that's more full on creeper territory.

They didn't give much detail about anything though, so there's not much to say.

AFAIK, literally every 'unboxing' video on YT is with shit they've been sent for free, the only difference here being the scale of the freeby involved, so its pretty fucking arbitrary to decided "oh, yeah, I don't mind someone getting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of free stuff over the course of a year, but IN ONE GO?

Have we identified why we should condemn Mike Nelson though?

His favorite website [from a decade plus old interview] that he reads daily is a MAGA site that is mostly just articles praising Trump and Tucker Carlson or trashing BLM.

Good people do not consume this sort of media proudly.

What has he said on any of that though?

Nothing in his statement. He has openly declared he is a conservative Republican and reads alt-right websites. He notably did not disavow any of that in his statement.

Nelson is undoubtedly still right-wing given he has openly bragged about it in the past and on the podcast. I think people forget he has been on this podcast many times and was openly right-wing.

Going "hey I am not racist!" doesn't excuse his extreme right-wing ideology which he has previously proudly declared.

I guess my point is there hasn't been anything to discard him.

How is making racist Muslim jokes not enough to discard him? How is him openly supporting Trump not enough to discard him?

51 minutes in, Mike says he won't wear a mask, and if anyone asks, "I'll jut say I'm Muslim and it's against my religion."

(Kind of) funny side-story, I showed this short once to a girl I was dating, and she somehow missed that all of the jokes about sexism in this short are... jokes. She thought, for example, that the line "most houses don't have maids... they have daughters" was dead serious and was incredibly upset that I found the whole thing funny. We had to stop and sort the whole thing out. (She still didn't find MST3K funny even after she knew that they were poking fun at the sexism of the era.)

Just to add context to her Simpsons contribution, Amram was part of the writers' room boys' club for only a year penning two scripts in total... the polarizing Bart vs. Itchy & Scratchy - which I enjoyed largely due to it being showrun by Matt Selman; it cheesed off a bunch of online incels and has been thoroughly trashed on IMDB with a 4.5 user score which, I believe is the 2nd lowest in the show's history after Lisa Goes Gaga - and Crystal Blue-Haired Persuasion - which was soundly forgotten almost immediately after it aired due to being thoroughly unremarkable.
