I love posting this to assholes on Facebook who scream about the 1st amendment.

Do you think we could make a case that the ridiculous fee's airlines charge amount to taxation without representation?

Mah freeze peach! XKCD is always relevant:

The terrible thing is that the interviewer points that out to him by asking about the violations of the women's privacy, and he just answers, paraphrasing here, that the pictures were only seen by 144 (!!!) guys on the Internet who were in a brotherhood (!!!!) together, so that wasn't a violation of their privacy, and…

ITS RIGHT THERE ON HIS IPHONE THAT HE DEFINITELY DOES NOT USE TO TAKE PICTURES OF PASSED OUT GIRLS OF EVEN THOUGH HE TOTALLY SUPPORTS HIS FELLOW BROS BROING OUT WITH THEIR BRONESSSSSSSS

When he used the word licentiousness, I laughed so hard. You know that dude is so freaking proud of his thesaurus skills.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if they agreed with him. IME, women who live with misogynistic men tend to develop serious cases of internalized misogyny. Look at all the women who choose to "stand by their man" when he's accused of rape or abuse (see: Bill Cosby's wife).

His mother must be so proud. And his sisters, aunts, nieces.

fuck this jackass. Also you KNOW he thinks hes sounding so goddamn smart in this statement. Its such typical "I'm in college at the moment and obviously know everything" bs. I MEAN GUYS HE USED THE TERM "SEXUAL MORES." HES SO SMART.

It's just stuff that guys do, you know. The human beings in the photos being violated and publicly humiliated don't even factor in. Just bros doing bro shit.

So from this part: " Here's a quick reality check: everyone — from Bill Clinton to your grandfather to every Greek organization in the nation does the same old stuff, just as they have been for the entirety of human history."

The fire of indignant, misplaced self-righteousness that looks to ruin people's lives and unjustly ruin reputations is the abuse and violation that should be at the center of discussion

not the humorous, albeit possibly misguided, antics of a bunch of college kids

Not to mention what said "exposure" will open you up to. Oh you worked for free for that company? Then why should I pay you for using this?

Well. I think raising awareness about the unjust idea that you can pay artists nothing for their work is a fair cause. McDonalds and other companies might eventually get the message if enough artists say "No thank you" but who has time for that?

Yeah! Those entitled bastards, expecting to be paid for work instead of working for free. Pfft.

As a creative professional (photographer), few things irk me more than people asking me to essentially work for free. I've had companies and organizations contact me telling me they want to publish or use my work. When I ask about compensation, they tell me that they can't pay me, but it's "great exposure".

So apparently McDonald's is the corporate equivalent of your friends who want to rope you into performing for free at their wedding.

I can't believe that no one at McDonald's PR department didn't do a pro/con of paying bands a token, what, $5,000? to play vs. the potential backlash of asking them to play for free.

Apparently not even to be paid fairly for doing work, according to you.
