load those kindness guns with love bullets, boys. we’re about to get into some compassionate combat.

i’m not wrong, though. it’s just that nobody wants to admit when something ostensibly good and righteous like stopping men from being rapists becomes something petty and destructive. and i refuse to bow down to virtue signaling and accept this group mentality that this was somehow a righteous cause that needed to be…

“continuing to harass” means scrambling after realizing you fucked up? something everyone does? sorry, yeah, i didn’t know i was talking to a literal saint here. how is it like up in heaven, oh pure one?

not really. you can discourage it while not having to be a snitch. i dont think a couple of dms is tantamount to sexual harassment. it didn’t happen over a long period of time. the texts weren’t long descriptions of how he was going to rape her. it was texts at 3 in the morning, commonly known as the “you up?” hour.…

my entire point is that his punishment is completely unreasonable considering what he did. that’s it. that’s all i’m saying. i’m not saying he shouldn’t be punished, that there shouldn’t be consequences, or that this isn’t shitty behavior. the punishment should fit the crime.

i have yet to hear an argument that convinces me that the punishment is proportional to the incident. it seems like you’re arguing that because men in general keep being rapists means that any man who dares to dm a woman at 3 in the morning looking for sex should get fired from his job. i don’t see how that’s going to…

you’re drunk on your own farts

i don’t. but there’s no evidence of it.

it’s true that our justice system is broken is lenient to abusers. but i dont think we should react to the lack of justice that system by overpunishing offenders within this nascent populist form of justice. shouldn’t we figure out how to create a fair system of judgements and punishments rather than trying to somehow…

this kind of puritanical nonsense is weak af

losing support for #metoo by using the power to cancel people on literally anyone that sends a couple of shitty dms on twitter is your concern, though.

i see the value in it to stop this kind of harassment in general. but there’s also a danger that reacting in the same kind of way to the most minor of infractions is going to lead to loss of support for #metoo. we should find out where the lines are that should lead to trying to get someone fired and publicly shaming…

if it did, then that would be reason to make it public and fire him. but i just don’t see how this is the proper reaction after one instance. 

this counts as sexual harassment to you? i don’t get it. seems like it barely qualifies if it qualifies at all just because the content is sexual. is this your reaction as soon as the convo turns sexual? because that seems extreme. sexual harassment should be something prolonged, it should only become harassment after…

yeah i got greyed lol. worth it. people should learn that there are proper responses to things and this isn’t one of them.

so the response is valid because... he didn’t have to do it in the first place? all i’m saying is that this doesn’t require someone to go nuclear and destroy someone’s career and marriage. responding to horny texts with this kind of shit is insane. people need to have better judgement about things. there are actions…

it’s crazy how the response to a little bit of horny texting is destroying someone’s marriage and career. i mean, if he wasn’t a journalist working for the seattle times, you would just maybe yell at him a little and block him, no? maybe threaten him a little, chastise him for being a fucking idiot and giving you the…
