  • How am I supposed to know which country you live in? And who are you to dictate how many arbitrary articles I need to provide? You said any news outlet.

    And just because you don't live there doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

    Carry on with your denial tho. It happens, and just because you don't believe it doesn't make it false. Why do good samaritan laws exist? Why are men reluctant to help? Are all men mad?

    My god. The mental gymnastics you'd go through just to pretend this doesn't happen. I'm out. Believe what you want, I'm not gonna try to educate the uneducateable.

  • Also not everyone lives in America. In more conservative places in Asia, touching a random woman (even if she is unconscious) and clearly in need of help is really asking to be judged.

    And if a video with accusatory narration is posted on tiktok or something, you're basically done for. Especially in a small town or country. You're basically doxxed and won't be easily hired for work because background checks are easily done, and the company (basically the HR) isn't going to risk the bad rep of hiring a potential molester, rapist, etc even if it's just an accusation by random people.

  • You would think so, right? But the reality is that men are always assumed to have the worst intentions. Especially in hindsight. i.e. "he didn't need to do that right? he must be trying to cop a feel".

    Same reason men aren't usually kindergarten teachers, because they're immediately assumed to be pedos.

  • The public scrutiny and the mark on your record does not go away even if you're found not liable. Once you are even accused of anything like this, it's there forever. People will think you got off on a "technicality".

    If you're a man facing this, your life is ruined. May as well move away and never come back.

  • You would think that, right? But no. If you're a guy, you automatically think of all the ways you can get accused of SA, even when you're genuinely trying to help. So most guys just don't. It's not worth the risk.

  • Software engineers/developers. They come up with software that everyone uses daily. But they work in shitty conditions, get kinda low pay, and because they're not as visible as writers and actors, are not able to hold a strike for kickbacks when their software is used or is still in use.

    They basically built the modern world, but are exploited so that the ones who own the company get rich off their backs.

  • Fair enough. But their products can be flashed with open spurce firmware, like klipper and marlin. That should remove any spying that would happen.

    Of course, if you're worried about spying, don't get the closed source stuff like bambu or whatever, but there are those where you can just flash a new firmware on it.

  • Genuinely, why do y'all hate China printers? I mean, I'm not a big fan of China and their policies as well, but this "I don't want China products" seems mildly racist to me. I wanna know y'all's point of view.
