If you are a #freedomtech developer, always ask yourself - 'how can my cool project be weaponized?' nostr:nevent1qqswr5nue8w79d38z488yzu4rej4w3kxjkjawly4f0hxag7tq7rw6ugpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumnfd4hjucmpwd5z7q3qq6mcr8tlr3l4gus3sfnw6772s7zae6hqncmw5wj27ejud5wcxf7qxpqqqqqqzurkcx9
Bloody hell, what an awful story. I bet It wouldn’t take much to block that sort of messaging with an ai now.
The fact that they immediately turned this into “gender-based violence” is just insane to me. They are causing so much of the very problem and they double down on a massive part of it almost instantly. They are breeding, weak, cowardly men, who are out in a situation where they think manipulating, lying, and hiding who they are is how they get women. Then they feel victimized when it all goes to shit because what actually happened is they turned into a creepy coward out of some weird attempt to not be “offensive.” We have serious mental health disorder and unfortunately this article displays some of it. And it couldn’t be so clearly demonstrated by the horrific long tail consequences of this type of culture that are detailed in this very article.
The banking angle to the whole story is weird. So guy goes on a rampage, kills 4 people and the message he sent with his bank transfer is the story? The bank didn't tell him where they lived. He knew that already. The message - although on its own it would - was not the problem. Had it been, it would have been reason for legal action against him as it should be. He could have shouted his slurs at the house they lived in. What would it have changed?
