RE: Should the act of taking "creep shots" of people be ostracized?
If you don't like being the subject of creep shots, stay in your house.
That argument is in the same vein as "If she didn't want to get raped, shouldn't have worn the skimpy dress."
You understand that, right?
"If she didn't want to have her dignity and / or privacy violated, should not have gone outside."
I mean you do see this, right? Sorry for being snarky but your form of argumentation makes my head hurt.
You compare a rape to a creep shot. You are pretty much the same with all those crazy feminazis and sjws claiming they have PTSD because somebody said a mean word or used the wrong pronoun.
But yeah, I agree. My form of argumentation is faulty.
He compares the "reasoning" behind rape with the reasoning behind your "if you don't want creepshots".
Yeah I get that. The thing is creep shooting is legal, since taking photos in public is legal. If you really don't want to get creep shot there is only one thing you can do. Stay out of public sight and in your house. :)I guess I could have worded it differently to make that more clear but it's too late now
No one said that this is about violating people's rights at all, hence ostracism not a petition for more laws, so it isn't about stoping creepshoting, maybe that cleared the confusion. I think it very hard to object to ostracizing creepshoting, which is the position you took arguing that ostracizing such behavior will lead to more and more "lines in the sand".
Well I have the belief, which may well be wrong, that when somebody tries to rally up people to flag the shit out of a certain behavior here on steem, they would do the equivalent in real life if they had enough power. And by equivalent I mean turning it illegal. This is why my response wasn't talking exclusively about steem but was more generic. I think I clarified that in one of my comments.
