because, historically, thats all they'd see on the news

coming out of the city

"gang banger kills other gang banger"

Cities are more violent because of the population density, so its not wrong to think that.

But its wrong to think that civilization is going to hell because of focusing on those areas.

true, but then people wonder why they might be slightly racist or bias

and its literally because the media only reports dirty laundry

because its a scandal, and fear sells.

Data is skewed like that.

i will say, the leftist fear machine has slightly toned down the reporting of who did what crimes, at least in cities, unless its a white person. but they replaced it with just bashing the people who had a misplaced if understandable bias.

so now cities are filled with white hating people who let criminals get away unless they are white

they changed the story, didn't change the result

and then trump wins

Yep. people aren't as racist as everyone is saying, they've just been fed skewed information for the past half a century and then get blamed for interpreting it the way the media wanted.

the media got money for making people fearful, even if that fear mostly left after they went to work. So when the digital age stole their thunder, with fear coming from social media and independent sources, they had to double down, sell the largest fear.

they are not adapting, and its hurting everyone.

my friends roommate is a teacher, he just got fired because a student who didnt like him accused him of inappropriately touching her

well thats what he says, and i hope he is right, but what does the evidence say?

You can’t be alone with a woman in any professional situation. It’s sad, but it’s a practical technique to protect yourself.

ahh yes

the pence

classic defense move

His is extended into the social too, but hell, maybe he’s just ahead of the curb.

And this is why accusations without evidence should be dismissed.

did she get the police involved?

should have gone and reported her first. this is the world we live in now.

@wacka haven't you heard? in the US police do not get involved with rape cases anymore

im trying to become a teacher and things like that terrify me

Mostly because I cannot think of a way to stop it or protect myself

Teachers will need to start wearing body cams soon.

I wonder if the schools will allow that

No clue.

they have to,

Just say you're doing a social research for community purposes 😄

on the safety of LGTB people in class

then no one is gonna raise questions

that might actually work

ofc it does, fear-buzz words are universal

Just throw some "progressive" reason behind it, and no one will care cuz it sounds nice

and conservatives don't see an issue either, cuz worst case scenario, you have proof 😄

One side likes it because of the language and the other side likes it because it provides evidence

doesnt seem like so long ago that those positions were reversed

depends from which angle you look

Left vs Right, yes

Sane vs Moral? nah still the same

thats a fair point

too bad I cant at everyone

Id like to ask how people in here would feel if their teachers were wearing body cams

I wouldn't care the least,
I had to deal with some classes being recorded in my school, for study purposes, so i'm used to it

i would be fine with a camera in the classroom, a body cam in not really any different

...when @Timcast yeah I get the analogy, but I'm Australian so it's my culture to make a joke of everything, I literally have no choice lol

I hate the idea that we need to put cameras everywhere to protect ourselves. That helps corporations and governments spy on us.

so how is that different from now?

There is another option sun, but im not sure that anyone would like it

castration?

Give each teacher an Aide/Co Teacher in their classes with them

Theoretically that would give a second witness and make it less likely for people to make false accusations

thats assuming both parties are honest,

the co-teacher could cover up the accused one

And at the same time, the accuser can claim first teacher did it quickly, so the co-teacher didn't see it

cameras are unbiased in that regard

thats the issue

dont get me wrong, i think having two teachers would be massively beneficial to students in the variety of ways

yes, more attention per student

2 teachers for every 30 in a class, instead of 1 every 30, making it 1 teacher for every 15

ffs https://www.reuters.com/article/us-microsoft-women/microsoft-launches-program-for-women-returning-to-work-idUSKCN1J12H2

theres discrimination... how do we fix it... lets discriminate

right but thats a different conversation wol

new jobs at MS yay! white men need not apply

if you're talking about stopping these accusations id rather do the body cams

@wacka tribalism 101, its okay when we do it

i rather just have a camera that overlooks the class than a bodycam, gives more overview

if you lean over a student to help them by looking at their work
The camera can't see what you're doing, cuz its aiming at a desk

there are no jobs at MS that women cant apply for... but now you can say that about men

fairly certain it should be illegal

ofc, but then you're not for helping wamen, so you're a racist nazi and all that stuff

not me... the law is 😛

I give it another 10 years before companies realize this diversity pandering doesnt pay off

is already not paying off, look at Marvel, and the media

youtube

Oh were aware of that because were on the outside

But to those companies this is just a bad season, a bad year, or an effort that doesnt pan out

They have to fail several times on an effort before they give up on it

You can bet youll see several versions of this effort before it finally dies out

Tim’s Hogg swat video is up.
https://youtu.be/c8DAi2UaIuk

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/facebook-under-scrutiny-over-data-sharing-after-times-report/ so apparently when facebook said that data analitica thing was their only instance of selling private information to companys they wernt completely honest

If zuckerberg can lie, doesn't that mean he isn't really a machine?

His AI must be really advanced.

Today I want to be a super intelligence able to manipulate quantum reality at will. It might not make me feel better, but Oh what a set of paints!

if every company in the world commited the same crime and then suddenly one of them was caught, do you think they would be punished?

Depends on who they know, who they blow, and their bank balance.

I think Hogg just wants to be famous

but fuck swatters

not only that but if Hogg got hurt it would bolster his cause. This type of bullshit doesnt work. Let Hogg say his piece and let others debate him

for the most part, i haven't been hearing from Hogg too recently.

but i don't go looking so....

Hogg doesn't really debate though.

@Arch-Fiend what crime? you agreed to everything in the ToS *insert monotone voice and zucks face here*

This whole gun control thing isn't a conversation. There's no discussion, no back-and-forth. It's just a screaming match at this point, or worse, just naked exercise of power.

Facebook stock is at all-time highs today, so crime does pay.

Dab on that privacy tbh

it always has been a screaming match really

just autistic screeching all around and people in middle wishing they would both shut up and do something.

what that something is? no one knows

the gun control debate is 100% useless. i'm firmly in the "no guns for anyone"-camp but i do realize that it is absolutely impossible to get rid of the amount of guns that are in circulation.

if you can't get rid of ALL the guns, then the people that WILL have them will be the ones that do not care about laws.
