You open yourself up to the obvious line of attack “My friend Aisha just did X,Y,Z and she loves being a Hijabi.” I’m thinking of such a person in my past right now. Counter examples are meaningful for good reason. They aren’t an ‘epsilon’ term in any way. | ||

|content= | |content=A proper theory of oppression by Islamic veiling and covering must take into account: | ||
| | |||
Christian Covering</br> | |||
Jewish Orthodox Modesty-wear</br> | |||
Coercion both explicit and implicit</br> | |||
Brainwashing vs Projection</br> | |||
Niqab vs Headscarves</br> | |||
Etc. | |||
and no one wants to do it. So it gets oversimplified. | |||

Many of you have heard of “The Streisand Effect” but may not know it has evolved into a tactic. Certainly I didn’t grasp this until recently, and I couldn’t find a description or name for it. Hence this thread. | |||

|content= | |content=Here is the basic idea. You have something like a podcast, community or product you want to promote. Only maybe it’s tough to find an audience. So the exploit is that you are going use people who have built audiences to drive their traffic to you relying on digital harassment. | ||

|content= | |content=For example, let’s imagine Sally Gupta has built a brand and following and you want a chunk of it for your dental products website https://t.co/wUEN91Kct6 | ||
So you start harassing her (and other people w/ audiences) getting followers focused on her teeth. It’s free speech, right? | |||

|content=Fund *physics* to see IF there is a long term solution. Only physics might be able to allow us to avoid shared fate. I DO think we get through this crisis AND the next few. But it is going to get dicier from here. | |||
Ultimately, [[Our home is in the stars or not at all|“Our home is in the stars or not at all.”]] | |||

|content=We must support our leadership now. In particular we must encourage and support the peacetime careerists who never served & who were born in the 1930s & 40s to enjoy their golden years. | |||
I support [[Joe Biden]] and [[Nancy Pelosi]]. I hope they support us back. | |||

|content=Eric, when we look at the leadership of those countries and compare it to the current U.S. leadership and NATO, the margin for error is tiny. | |||
There's a flaw in our system of leadership; we can't get rid of an incompetent President in a bipolar political environment. | |||

|content=Somehow many on the internet are excited about using free speech as an argument for “Look! The constitution celebrates me being horrible to people.” It doesn’t. It says that culture should restrain excesses, not law. How do we get that to work on the internet? I don’t know yet. | |||

|content=One clarification. There is no protected category called ‘hate speech’. There are many legal exceptions (e.g. “fighting words doctrine”, “defamation”, “clear and present danger”, etc.), but, far more importantly, there is the culture of being a decent member of civil society. | |||

|content=It's amazing how unaware people are. @joerogan just said, “I’m so liberal. Like I talk about it all the time. Like I am not a conservative." Based on what? All he's done for the last two years is extreme right-wing propaganda but in his mind he's still a compassionate liberal. | |||

From this attack on, we are not going to continue to dismantle our successful free society to cater to the needs of those who are not ready to live within it. | |||
Our shameful experiment in anti-enlightenment ends with this attack. | |||

There is no “Hate Speech”. There is no blasphemy. There are no “punchable faces”. | |||
We have *free speech* outside of a few technical adjustments. | |||
Don’t like it? Then *YOU* exit. | |||

The idea of maliciously claiming that the entire world is now a 24/7 ‘crowded theater’ so all speech can be up & down-regulated by those it threatens was not anticipated. | |||
