So yes, you apologized for assuming I didn't understand what I was talking about, but you then double down ignoring the harassment I was bringing up. I'm not interested in discussing any part of this with you, we already have gone round and round. I was just shocked, amazed to read you today and had to highlight your lack of self awareness in saying
“I’ve never experienced it so you must just be imagining it”
Harassment of women with deepfakes has no impact or relevance, because hostility to women only has no impact or relevance to you.
It's super ironic that you are the top comment in THIS thread.
Hi again, you assumed that I thought deep fakes worked off magicly making nudes and just didn't understand the technology of aggregation as opposed to listening to the ways that women are being blackmailed and harassed by it. And that even if deepfake is exponentially faster and more accessible, it's nothing new or different than drawing a picture of someone naked, even in the age of social media
Instead of actually listening you were arrogant, dismissive and hostile. You are the man in this comic. You are the person who is not harmed by deep fakes, so it's not a real problem.
Tell yourself whatever makes you feel the most persecuted I guess.
people fantasizing about me being a predator
Literally no one has said that. You're the only one placing yourself in the place of a predator. Like seriously, how hard is it to understand that this is how women feel about being isolated with men they don't know and not ALL MEN EVERYWHERE or YOU SPECIFICALLY.
Because it's an easy answer. They would rather misrepsent the hypothetical and try to change the discussion instead of actually grapple with the reality women face.
And then tons of guys decided that women talking about their fears of being alone in the woods with a strange man was an attack on men and now are calling the entire discussion misandrist.
There is a long rich tradition of women discussing the effects of sexism only to have it be dismissed as sexism by men. Similar to critical race theory, white people being upset about the discussion of racism.
That is LITERALLY wrong. Absolutely not what I or women are saying.
Women in this thread seem to think otherwise which is mind boggling.
🙄🙄🙄
Just forget about the man for a second...she would pick death? What?
You are changing the premises so you can feel insulted by it.
It is safer to be in the woods with a random bear, than a random man. Not WOULD RATHER BE ATTACKED BY, its that the statically speaking the bear is probably going to mind its own business, while a man who knows we are alone can seek us out. Women feel that a random man is more likely to cause harm us harm, than a bear existing in the woods.
You're entirely missing the point of the discussion.
There is no winning! All the "not all men" and "that's misandry" dorks show up every single time a woman warns others to be careful around strangers.
As always, what women think needs to be filtered through what any random man can stand to hear. Women can't discuss even their physical safety if it hurts a man's feelings.
No, it seems that your point is that women should not talk about their reasons and fears about being alone in the woods with a man they don't know if it makes random men in the comment section feel attacked.
Your words, not mine. This isn't about admitting anything, but understanding the lived experiences of women. You are literally acting out the meme here.
Full hair and makeup, sparkly dress that shows a lot, go to a trendy bar with my friends and get blackout ass drunk without worrying about protecting my drink all night and knowing I can walk home by myself.
In the morning I would nurse the hangover while ordering the biggest ass teddy 🐻 bear 🐻 that will fit through my door as a memento.
And the very next thing you said was...
