Beat someone to death with it while storming your country’s top government building trying to overthrow said government.

Just add some treason/insurrection on top.

Yeah it’s definitely her fault Americans are misogynists and rather vote for a sexual predator than a woman.

As someone else said: it doesn’t replace streaming even a little. Pirating is replacing buying music directly. Streaming facilitates finding new music and trying it out. Being able to listen to anything at any time. You simply can’t do that with downloads; no one can download everything. Piracy in this case really just works for people still listening to their highschool favs and not people looking for new stuff all the time.

Also, don’t call me honey. It’s really degrading, id expect better from someone like you.

Whoosh

Does it fall to the good guys, though? The ones who already don’t rape and stand up to their peers who have toxic ideas?

Yes, precisely. If the majority of men don’t change the culture by standing up for women and against low-key misogyny that’s everywhere then nothing will change and they aren’t really “good guys”.

And, really, are you reaching anyone who needs to hear it with rhetoric like this?

Dunno. But there’s certainly a LOT of misogynists on Lemmy and I’m going to keep pushing back against them. They probably think they’re feminists, too. Quoting bear statistics, saying “not all men”, equivocating gender and race relations, telling women to “tone down” their complains so they don’t alienate rapists and potential rapists.

Sure, not all men, but quite frankly I’m tired of having to be “one of the good ones”.

Lol, don’t fret. With an attitude like that, you aren’t.

We aren’t talking about race, honey. If they think you can just swap labels you REALLY don’t understand what’s going on. No surprise.

It’s not on women to soften their complaints of rape and harassment to try to prevent men from becoming incels and Nazis.

For Fucks Sake

Men can deal with the very mild discomfort of being occasionally reminded women have to always be vigilant.

Shit. Do factory settings have this chronic neck pain and ADHD? BRB going to reset a few times.

Odds on this meaning be gets a vacation day or just the opportunity to take an unpaid day off on a holiday?

Imagine a prosecution or law enforcement bureau that has trained an AI from scratch on specific stimuli to enhance and clarify grainy images. Even if they all were totally on the up-and-up (they aren’t, ACAB), training a generative AI or similar on pictures of guns, drugs, masks, etc for years will lead to internal bias. And since AI makers pretend you can’t decipher the logic (I’ve literally seen compositional/generative AI that shows its work), they’ll never realize what it’s actually doing.

So then you get innocent CCTV footage this AI “clarifies” and pattern-matches every dark blurb into a gun. Black iPhone? Maybe a pistol. Black umbrella folded up at a weird angle? Clearly a rifle. And so on. I’m sure everyone else can think of far more frightening ideas like auto-completing a face based on previously searched ones or just plain-old institutional racism bias.

ITT: people calling for revolution who will never do a damn thing about it. It’s easy to pretend violence is the answer when you’ll never participate, let alone start something.

No clue what it’ll be but it’ll certainly be rad.

Oh I will.
