DaemonFC[m]<MinceR "DaemonFC: samsung phones really "> Nope. Since they added Microsoft crap and then T-Mobile tweaked it to demand your location for "analytics" even when you told it no.Jan 16 00:00
MinceR:>Jan 16 00:00
schestowitz[23:59] <MinceR> the ability to comment has already disappeared from many sitesJan 16 00:01
schestowitzTwitterJan 16 00:01
schestowitzhigh-profile people block commentsJan 16 00:01
schestowitzTwitter gives them that optionJan 16 00:01
schestowitzeven if they have publicly accessible accounts (to all)Jan 16 00:01
DaemonFC[m]There's this thing called Google Location Accuracy which "improves" your location using wifi and Bluetooth, but if you don't turn it off, it starts demanding bluetooth and wifi to be turned on with a tray notification ever time I go into my apartment.Jan 16 00:01
schestowitzthey want to control how their lies are seenJan 16 00:01
MinceRCrystalMath: basically, companies aren't going to risk their hides for anyone and authoritarians (of which we have a huge surplus) are going to insist on being able to punish someone when content that offends them gets postedJan 16 00:01
DaemonFC[m]I didn't even figure out how to make that stop until just now.Jan 16 00:01
DaemonFC[m]<MinceR "CrystalMath: basically, companie"> The far-right is pissed because THEY are on the receiving end, not the giving end, of the apparatus.Jan 16 00:02
DaemonFC[m]If that ever changed they'd drop the pretense of caring about free speech.Jan 16 00:02

schestowitzpleaseJan 16 00:03
schestowitzANDJan 16 00:03
schestowitztell other people to do the sameJan 16 00:03
DaemonFC[m]You think they want a free speech platform that gives progressives a platform? Parler said unmoderated and then when progressives came and started posting, they all got thrown off and banned.Jan 16 00:03
schestowitzbecause their tracking devices are used to also track people nearbyJan 16 00:03
MinceRschestowitz: how am i supposed to access the Internet?Jan 16 00:03
schestowitzlaptop maybeJan 16 00:03
MinceRand how is that laptop going to connect to the network?Jan 16 00:03
CrystalMathschestowitz: i have a nokia 3310 from 2000Jan 16 00:03
CrystalMatham i safe?Jan 16 00:03
schestowitzthe laptops doesn't talk to the towers all the timeJan 16 00:04
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: A free speech app is all the "news" says about Parler, without mentioning that they threw progressives off for saying things like the minimum wage should be higher.Jan 16 00:04
CrystalMathi keep the phone mostly at homeJan 16 00:04
MinceRschestowitz: they do if they use a cellular networkJan 16 00:04
DaemonFC[m]They nipped it in the bud because all they want is QAnon on there.Jan 16 00:04
schestowitzCrystalMath: not for location trackingJan 16 00:04
CrystalMathDaemonFC[m]: yeah parleri s very anti-free speechJan 16 00:04
CrystalMathschestowitz: my SIM card is anonymousJan 16 00:04
MinceRDaemonFC[m]: ah, "free speech"Jan 16 00:04
schestowitzCrystalMath: then you greatly minimise the downsidesJan 16 00:04
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: Some shady people who incorporated in Nevada.Jan 16 00:05
MinceRschestowitz: also, having the cellular chip built right into the laptop likely exposes the laptop to security holesJan 16 00:05
DaemonFC[m]Won't even tell people who really owns it.Jan 16 00:05
DaemonFC[m]Wants your driver's license and Social Security cards.Jan 16 00:05
schestowitz[00:04] <CrystalMath> schestowitz: my SIM card is anonymousJan 16 00:05
schestowitzwon't helpJan 16 00:05
DaemonFC[m]And they leaked those too in the end.Jan 16 00:05
schestowitzeven if you top up with cashJan 16 00:05
schestowitzthey can see where it's homedJan 16 00:05
DaemonFC[m]Even though they said they deleted it after verification.Jan 16 00:05
CrystalMathit's prepaid and i pay with cash ofcJan 16 00:05
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: People lie, you know.Jan 16 00:05
schestowitzso the signals agencies know who owns the deviceJan 16 00:05
DaemonFC[m]If they say you can't know who owns the company, why would you send them that kind of ID?Jan 16 00:06
CrystalMathschestowitz: i doubt triangulation is that preciseJan 16 00:06
psydroidthey can link it to your home addressJan 16 00:06
DaemonFC[m]No wonder the FBI keeps filing 100 new charges per day from the Capitol riot.Jan 16 00:06
*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)Jan 16 00:06
DaemonFC[m]Most of them were on Parler and doxxed themselves.Jan 16 00:06
schestowitzCrystalMath: dependsJan 16 00:06
DaemonFC[m]Complete with their driver's license.Jan 16 00:06
schestowitzmaybe not in Serbia (Was it?)Jan 16 00:06
CrystalMathserbia, but like, the question is how precise is triangulationJan 16 00:07
schestowitzhere I checked and where we live they approximate about 1-2 meters rangeJan 16 00:07
schestowitzmaybe near a tower they can do sub-meterJan 16 00:07
CrystalMatheven a meter off could be beyond the limits of my propertyJan 16 00:07
CrystalMathbecause of where i keep itJan 16 00:07
CrystalMath2 would already be very ambiguousJan 16 00:07
schestowitzI often wonder about altitudesJan 16 00:07
CrystalMaththat too, is very importantJan 16 00:08
schestowitzlike in apartment buildings. As the towers are now spread high upJan 16 00:08
schestowitzthey are spread horizontally, not verticallyJan 16 00:08
DaemonFC[m]https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/15/politics/pentagon-national-guard-inauguration/index.htmlJan 16 00:08
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Pentagon authorizes 25,000 National Guard members for inauguration - CNNPoliticsJan 16 00:08
MinceRif they really wanted, they could use mobile antennas to triangulate your deviceJan 16 00:08
schestowitzso in large building it's expensive to figure out, based on voices, who's whoJan 16 00:08
schestowitzbut they can figure it out based on who you phoneJan 16 00:08
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: They sent in 5,000 _more_. Total 25,000 troops on the ground in DC now.Jan 16 00:08
CrystalMathschestowitz: yeah that would be easy thenJan 16 00:08
schestowitz"mom", "dad", "boss", "colleague"Jan 16 00:09
CrystalMathby whom i phone, with this SIMJan 16 00:09
CrystalMathit's very easy to tell a lot about meJan 16 00:09
DaemonFC[m]There's a standing army encamped in DC because of QAnon at the moment.Jan 16 00:09
schestowitzthat can be automated and matched up against databases with social and family graphsJan 16 00:09
CrystalMathlike who i am and where i workJan 16 00:09
DaemonFC[m]It's time to admit that this was allowed to get way out of hand.Jan 16 00:09
CrystalMathschestowitz: but i don't take that phone with me muchJan 16 00:09
schestowitzbut you phone peopleJan 16 00:09
CrystalMathsure, from the landline as wellJan 16 00:09
schestowitzand you are on some people's address booksJan 16 00:09
schestowitzwhich go to "the clown"Jan 16 00:09
schestowitzGoogle etc.Jan 16 00:09
schestowitzsome "Apps" like Skype take those address booksJan 16 00:10

schestowitzhoovering them up when you press OK upon installJan 16 00:10
schestowitz"yeah, yeah... whatever... I accept"Jan 16 00:10
CrystalMathwell i think getting away from that would be way more difficultJan 16 00:10
CrystalMathat least i managed to reduce the surveillance to 2000s levelsJan 16 00:10
schestowitznothing is easyJan 16 00:10
schestowitzI don't talk personal things on the phoneJan 16 00:11

schestowitzlocalJan 16 00:23
DaemonFC[m]I told him yes, and this is so stupid, but we have to do the local ones on odd years just a few months later.Jan 16 00:23
schestowitzI wonder how we'll vote this year for the CouncilJan 16 00:23
schestowitzdifferent thingsJan 16 00:23
schestowitzfire services, police, roadworkJan 16 00:23
DaemonFC[m]I voted to throw out Mr. Sexual Harassment ICE Collaborator (Sam Cunningham).Jan 16 00:23
DaemonFC[m]Replace him with a big block Mexican guy.Jan 16 00:24
CrystalMathbut in general i support casinosJan 16 00:24
schestowitzseems Manchester does better now against COVID spreadJan 16 00:24
CrystalMathlike, the ideaJan 16 00:24
schestowitzone in 200 has itJan 16 00:24
schestowitzbased on testing anywayJan 16 00:24
schestowitzsans extrapolationJan 16 00:24
schestowitzso those would be the ones showing symptoms, I guessJan 16 00:24
DaemonFC[m]Even if the sexual harassment allegation is untrue, the ICE collaboration was confirmed, and when it was made public he had the cop that was in charge of that resign.Jan 16 00:25
schestowitzwe're in no rush to get tested, which is safer and likely more effective than the 'vaccine'Jan 16 00:25
schestowitzI reckon we don't have itJan 16 00:25
schestowitzand not the antibodies eitherJan 16 00:25
schestowitzi.e. did not have it beforeJan 16 00:25
DaemonFC[m]But........As mayor, he's responsible for the police department. They couldn't have made that decision on their own. And it's not even legal to work with ICE here.Jan 16 00:25
schestowitzit'll get harder to avoid it over timeJan 16 00:25
DaemonFC[m]Yes, because it's turned into an avalanche. Jan 16 00:26
schestowitzquadratic growthJan 16 00:26
schestowitzworse than in MarchJan 16 00:26
DaemonFC[m]With 10 million new cases this month and 16 million next month and 25 million the month later.Jan 16 00:26
schestowitzyou can tell by the piles of death peopleJan 16 00:26
schestowitzwe broke the record this monthJan 16 00:26
DaemonFC[m]It took us 9 months to get to 20 million I think.Jan 16 00:27
schestowitzwe're at over 3 milion nowJan 16 00:27
DaemonFC[m]Then there will be 40 million by the end of this month.Jan 16 00:27
schestowitzthat's about as many as receive Dose One (TM) from Viagra Company(TM)Jan 16 00:27
DaemonFC[m]So it only takes 2 months to do what the past 9 months total did, and if you think the hospitals are full now, guess what it'll look like at the end of next month.Jan 16 00:27
schestowitzso covid spreads faster, on average, than the jabsJan 16 00:28
schestowitzoutpacing the clinical trialsJan 16 00:28
DaemonFC[m]But thanks to USCIS, we have to go to Chicago in the middle of this and have Immigration go over our bank records and wedding pictures and ask us what brand of toothpaste we use.Jan 16 00:28
schestowitzwhich have yet to prove any positive effect, or significant effecrJan 16 00:28
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: that overlooks the greater issueJan 16 00:28
schestowitznot how many are fulJan 16 00:28
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: It'll probably be like the trustee thing at the bk court.Jan 16 00:28
schestowitzbut the TYPES of patientsJan 16 00:29
schestowitzthey turn away many peopleJan 16 00:29
DaemonFC[m]Mom is right about this stuff at least. It's stupid, but just play the game.Jan 16 00:29
schestowitzeven those who need screenings, bed, nurse oversightJan 16 00:29
DaemonFC[m]They've had COVID in the facility where she works a few times but by dumb luck, no major outbreak.Jan 16 00:29
schestowitzmaybe because they prayedJan 16 00:30
DaemonFC[m]Most nursing homes in Indiana where it gets in, that's in man. Game over man. Game over!Jan 16 00:30
DaemonFC[m]But these idiots who run the facility just let all these other idiots that work there walk around with their masks under their noses.Jan 16 00:30
DaemonFC[m]And are yet to be overrun. Jan 16 00:30
schestowitzthey can bring it in from homeJan 16 00:30

schestowitzmask on, hoodieJan 16 00:32
schestowitzhe has ppeJan 16 00:32
DaemonFC[m]What I'm saying is that there's a lot of dumb trash out there who have nursing licenses and blow this off as some sort of a joke at least on their own time.Jan 16 00:32
DaemonFC[m]Then they bring it into the nursing home they work at because of that and kill 20-30 old people.Jan 16 00:33

DaemonFC[m]I wear the cloth ones and just wash them in detergent, hot water, and in that hand crank machine I have in the kitchen.Jan 16 00:35
schestowitzthat's what we do tooJan 16 00:35
schestowitzrianne is next in line to buy foodJan 16 00:35
schestowitzI did twice in a rowJan 16 00:35
DaemonFC[m]I do it every day now. I bought my own spray for the cart handles.Jan 16 00:36
schestowitzsince covid lockdowns started we've managed to get the same foods for even lower pricesJan 16 00:36
DaemonFC[m]The guy at Walmart actually yelled at me for doing that the other day. Said they already did. I told him, "What's it to you? If that guy did a fantastic job just come over here and touch it yourself. No?".Jan 16 00:37
schestowitzsince I don't like travelling much anyway, it doesn't bother me in any way except maybe using sauna facilities and such stuffJan 16 00:37
DaemonFC[m]Like, he's a door greeter yelling at me for moving out of the way and spraying a cart handle with stuff I paid for.Jan 16 00:37
schestowitzweirdJan 16 00:38
schestowitzmy dad does the sameJan 16 00:38
schestowitzand memorises where it was sanitisedJan 16 00:38
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, it's not an overreaction of any kind from the numbers I'm seeing here each day.Jan 16 00:38
DaemonFC[m]I go over the entire handle.Jan 16 00:38
schestowitzmy skin is better off now, I barely ever touch itJan 16 00:38
DaemonFC[m]Then I use sanitizer on the way out (from the store's bottle). Then put the groceries in the car and more sanitizer (mine) including under my nails and stuff, before I drive off.Jan 16 00:39
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: the problem is when you pick an item and then touch the handleJan 16 00:39
schestowitzso mask on, never touch face,  no open wounds eitherJan 16 00:39
schestowitzand distance from people who... well, breatheJan 16 00:40
schestowitzeven then we wash all the items one by oneJan 16 00:40
DaemonFC[m]Some of the employees there slip their masks off I've noticed.Jan 16 00:40
DaemonFC[m]Or touch their mask then their face.Jan 16 00:40
schestowitzbecause we cannot leave cold items to quarantine for 3 days, they'd spoilJan 16 00:40

DaemonFC[m]This is what you get with companies like that. They don't ask anyone or do any research. They just add random things that get in the way, and then everyone who does use it gets it taken away a year or three later.Jan 16 01:10

vZS1_2Pocock is a good example of what happens when you have "SJWs" hijack control of a project and then get them to do your dirty work.Jan 16 12:25
Ariadneis it?Jan 16 12:25
vZS1_2They kick the technical people out, in general.Jan 16 12:26
vZS1_2People that can call out the BSJan 16 12:26
vZS1_2And who damped the marketingJan 16 12:26
Ariadne"SJW" these days is a catch-all boogeyman term largely utilized by the alt-rightJan 16 12:27
vZS1_2I used it in the derogatory senseJan 16 12:27
Ariadneyes, the alt-right senseJan 16 12:27
vZS1_2I don't have to be alt-right to use a word a certain wayJan 16 12:28
vZS1_2That's absurdJan 16 12:28
Ariadnesure.  i am just letting you know who primarily uses that term in the same context as you.Jan 16 12:28
vZS1_2And if some alt-right people make the same observation, good for them.Jan 16 12:29
Ariadnea better, and more accurate term, is "concern troll"Jan 16 12:29
vZS1_2That works tooJan 16 12:29
Ariadneusing accurate terms is important, as referring to concern trolls as "SJWs" undermines people who are doing important social justice work (including work on free software)Jan 16 12:30
vZS1_2An SJW doesn't care about social justiceJan 16 12:30
vZS1_2It's satireJan 16 12:30
Ariadneof course not, but the average person assumes they doJan 16 12:30
Ariadneanyway, the Pocock situation is not Pocock vs SJWsJan 16 12:31
vZS1_2It certainly isJan 16 12:31
Ariadneit really isn't.  i know many of the people involved.  none of them are SJWsJan 16 12:31
vZS1_2SureJan 16 12:31
Ariadnei think accurately describing the Pocock situation is also important, as "Pocock vs SJWs" does not accurately describe the legitimate concernsJan 16 12:33
Ariadnewhich is that Pocock saw internal FSFE data he was not supposed to be aware of, and as a result FSFE tries to discredit himJan 16 12:33
AriadnePocock however has responded suboptimally to that campaign which has allowed the people attempting to discredit him more success.Jan 16 12:34
Ariadnei think this is largely because he responds emotionally rather than tactically.Jan 16 12:35
schestowitz[12:26] <vZS1_2> They kick the technical people out, in general.Jan 16 12:35
schestowitzthis is trueJan 16 12:35
schestowitzhappens at OSI right nowJan 16 12:36
schestowitzat warp speedJan 16 12:36
Ariadneat any rate, the real questions of journalistic merit involve what FSFE data did he see that FSFE does not want *us* to seeJan 16 12:36
schestowitz3/4 out their speakers are not technicalJan 16 12:36
schestowitzand all represent corporationsJan 16 12:36
schestowitzno community at allJan 16 12:36
vZS1_2Yeah, 3/4 are idiotsJan 16 12:36
schestowitz[12:27] <Ariadne> "SJW" these days is a catch-all boogeyman term largely utilized by the alt-rightJan 16 12:36
schestowitzI don't use that termJan 16 12:36
schestowitzavoid the termJan 16 12:36
schestowitzdodge it, call it something more meaningfulJan 16 12:36
schestowitz[12:29] <Ariadne> a better, and more accurate term, is "concern troll"Jan 16 12:37
vZS1_2It all boils down to coups and hijacksJan 16 12:37
schestowitzmuch betterJan 16 12:37
schestowitzuntil the alt reich uses that term tooJan 16 12:37
schestowitzlike Trump hijacked "fake news"Jan 16 12:37
schestowitzso you cannot use that term after 2016Jan 16 12:37

Ariadnethe story of jk rowling is a bit more complicated than thatJan 16 17:45
Ariadneshe was radicalized on social control media with transphobic ideologyJan 16 17:46
Ariadneit is sad for everyone involvedJan 16 17:46
schestowitzsocial control media si toxicJan 16 17:46
Ariadnehowever, it is positive that such ideology was rejectedJan 16 17:46
DVulgarisYeah, I never got what got her into thatJan 16 17:46
schestowitzshe should have kept off itJan 16 17:46
DVulgarisTERFs and allJan 16 17:46
schestowitzor "write only"Jan 16 17:46
DVulgarisWeird shitJan 16 17:46
Ariadnewell, transphobia is just the homophobia of this century, and like homophobia is linked to white supremacyJan 16 17:47
DVulgarisThe only thing I don't getJan 16 17:47
CrystalMathhow is homophobia linked to white supremacy?Jan 16 17:47
schestowitztransphobia and homophobia are less common in "white" countriesJan 16 17:47
CrystalMaththere's a lot of homophobia outside white cultureJan 16 17:47
DVulgarisIs why are suicide rates still high even for post-op trans peopleJan 16 17:47
schestowitzso there's another angle to itJan 16 17:47
DVulgarisI think that the current research is missing somethingJan 16 17:47
CrystalMathactually, transphobia is more common in white countries than in asia, but homophobia is more common in asiaJan 16 17:47
DVulgarisAnd it is very sadJan 16 17:47
schestowitzgood luck as trans or gay in a country that is not whiteJan 16 17:47
CrystalMathit's differentJan 16 17:48
schestowitzmight not even survive one dayJan 16 17:48
DVulgarisCrystalMath: Depends where in asiaJan 16 17:48
CrystalMathschestowitz: it's easy to be trans in iranJan 16 17:48
CrystalMaththey fund your transitionJan 16 17:48
CrystalMathbut if you're gay, you get killedJan 16 17:48
DVulgarisCrystalMath: That's because they're ShiaJan 16 17:48
AriadneCrystalMath: its the same broken thought processJan 16 17:48
DVulgarisSunnis are much much worseJan 16 17:48
DVulgarisThey'll kill them anywayJan 16 17:48
Ariadneanyway, bigotry of any kind should be rejectedJan 16 17:48
DVulgarisShia are generally "lighter"Jan 16 17:48
DVulgarisBut the West is allied with SunnisJan 16 17:48
DVulgarisSoJan 16 17:49
DVulgaris...Jan 16 17:49
DVulgarisDon't get me wrong thoughJan 16 17:49
DVulgarisBoth are shitJan 16 17:49
Ariadnesuicide rate with trans people is largely driven by lack of opportunityJan 16 17:49
DVulgarisAnd discrimination I thinkJan 16 17:49
DVulgarisMore like isolation probablyJan 16 17:49
CrystalMathit's possible that dysphoria is permanentJan 16 17:50
DVulgarisIt can be permanent in other casesJan 16 17:50
CrystalMathand the trauma of being born in the wrong body is unrecoverableJan 16 17:50
Ariadneit is mostly the discriminationJan 16 17:50
DVulgarisExactlyJan 16 17:50
DVulgarisI think the "permanent dysphoria" is just a minorityJan 16 17:50
Ariadnetrans people, even "passing" post-op trans people are at risk of having their career destroyed at any timeJan 16 17:51
Ariadneif only white men were in such a situation (oh wait, that's why they hate #MeToo)Jan 16 17:51
CrystalMathAriadne: you should never wish for anyone else to be in such a situationJan 16 17:51
CrystalMathi *really* hate thatJan 16 17:52
Ariadnei don'tJan 16 17:52
CrystalMathand i am proud of myself, that many times i have suffered an injustice, i *never* wished for someone else to suffer it tooJan 16 17:52
Ariadnei am just saying that trans people do not know the same level of career stability that white men do.Jan 16 17:52
Ariadneand, white men hate #MeToo for this reason: it places their career stability at riskJan 16 17:53
CrystalMathi hate #MeToo because it's unfairJan 16 17:53
CrystalMathi don't think it places career stability at riskJan 16 17:53
CrystalMathor at least, i don't think that far, when something is unfair, it deserves to be hatedJan 16 17:54
CrystalMathjust by its principleJan 16 17:54
Ariadneyou don't?  because #MeToo has certainly demolished a lot of careersJan 16 17:54
Ariadneand i have had people tell me "they hope they don't get #MeToo'd"Jan 16 17:54
DVulgarisIt just reverses what is accepted in terms of justiceJan 16 17:54
CrystalMathsimilarly, i'm opposed to all kinds of discrimination, even reverse discriminationJan 16 17:54
DVulgarisOne should be innocent until proven guilty Jan 16 17:54
DVulgarisNot the other way aroundJan 16 17:54
CrystalMathabsolutely! the presumption of innocence is the most important thingJan 16 17:55
DVulgarisI mean, look at what they've done to RMSJan 16 17:55
schestowitzwhat is metoo in this context?Jan 16 17:55
CrystalMaththe most important thing ever, and it must apply to EVERY court, even the court of public opinionJan 16 17:55
schestowitzI think someone mistakes it for affirmative action and quotasJan 16 17:55
schestowitznot the same thing at allJan 16 17:55
Ariadnei think what happened to RMS is bullshit, but he could have more eloquently defended Minsky (who was one of my favorite professors)Jan 16 17:55
DVulgarisAriadne: I think he's just on the autism spectrumJan 16 17:55
Ariadneyes, but even autistics can learn to react tacticallyJan 16 17:56
DVulgarisTrueJan 16 17:56
schestowitzhis reaction was not badJan 16 17:56
schestowitzreaction to his email was badJan 16 17:56
schestowitzand based on lying piecesJan 16 17:56

Ariadneit was not greatJan 16 17:56
schestowitzlike sjvn'sJan 16 17:56

Ariadnewell, for one, he argued that even if Minsky accepted the massage and happy ending from an underage girl on Epstein's private island, that this is fine because it wasn't a little kidJan 16 17:58
schestowitzCrystalMath: yes, i want to see examples, tooJan 16 17:58
schestowitzhe did not say thisJan 16 17:58
schestowitzthat I know ofJan 16 17:58
Ariadnehe didJan 16 17:58
CrystalMathyeah he really didn't say it like thatJan 16 17:58

Ariadnei am paraphrasing, butJan 16 17:58
schestowitzI need to see the oroiginalJan 16 17:59
CrystalMathi think RMS's point was that he could have thought she was 18 easilyJan 16 17:59
schestowitzhe had said in his blog things about 16 year olds having sexJan 16 17:59
Ariadneyes, i get thatJan 16 17:59
schestowitzwhich is legal in most states by the wayJan 16 17:59

Ariadneinstead of writing a thought out responseJan 16 17:59
schestowitzthe response the media attacked him for was distortedJan 16 18:00

schestowitzsome that might upset someoneJan 16 18:00
schestowitznot that it's a crime to upset someoneJan 16 18:00
schestowitzesp. picking on or nitpicking the term "assault"Jan 16 18:00
Ariadneanyway, i find it unlikely that Minsky even accepted the massage + happy ending offerJan 16 18:00
DVulgarisThough, in the eyes of the mobJan 16 18:00
schestowitzthe worst media did was spin the word "willing"Jan 16 18:00

schestowitzand she's a person of honourJan 16 18:01
Ariadnewell, of course she would :PJan 16 18:01
schestowitzbut who knows...Jan 16 18:01
CrystalMathwhen i showed them proof they shut upJan 16 18:01
Ariadneanyway, something that made it worse for RMS isJan 16 18:01
Ariadnethat response pissed off some allies of MinskyJan 16 18:01
schestowitzCrystalMath: I think she was 17 at the time, can't remember thoughJan 16 18:02
DVulgarisThough, I will note that the US still has these crazy puritan views on a lot of thingsJan 16 18:02
schestowitzand if she was a 18-y-o student of his from MIT, then fine?Jan 16 18:02
CrystalMathschestowitz: yeah, that would make it 95% of the worldJan 16 18:02
Ariadnebecause instead of just saying the truth -- that no such offer was accepted, he tried to defend accepting such an offer that was never accepted in the first placeJan 16 18:02
CrystalMathDVulgaris: even in the US, in 80% of it, it's fineJan 16 18:02
DVulgarisI knowJan 16 18:02
Ariadneso it was offensive from multiple anglesJan 16 18:02
Ariadnefirst, he threw Minsky under the bus while trying to defend himJan 16 18:03
schestowitzhe did notJan 16 18:03
schestowitzit was a hypothetical statementJan 16 18:03
schestowitzanyway, they lost sight of the Gates scandalJan 16 18:03
CrystalMathpersonally i consider the AoC to be a hard limit, and people should generally go for higher themselvesJan 16 18:03
schestowitzI even told RMS a week earlierJan 16 18:03
Ariadneyes, well, it was a hypothetical statement that many people took as him throwing Minsky under the busJan 16 18:03
CrystalMathbut the law only goes after people who cross that lineJan 16 18:03
schestowitzthat it looked to me like a distraction from Billie GoatJan 16 18:03
schestowitzBill did vastly worse thingsJan 16 18:04
schestowitzthan what Minsky was ACCUSED fo doingJan 16 18:04
schestowitzRMS was never the scandalJan 16 18:04

CrystalMath"Today's Sex Workers, Like Their Victorian Sisters, Don't Want "saving". Feminism today is drifting off the track into a campaign of prudery that harms everyone, except those who are asexual."Jan 16 18:16
CrystalMath"When the escalation started, I still considered RMS both a friend and colleague, and I attempted to argue with him at length to convince him that some of his positions were harmful to sexual assault survivors and those who are *sex-trafficked*, and to the people who devote their lives in service to such individuals." -- Bradley Kuhn himself (emphasis mine)Jan 16 18:17
CrystalMathhe believes that sex workers are necessarily sex trafficked and need to be protected for their own good, and cannot decide for themselvesJan 16 18:17
