One pupil got suspended for drawing horns or something on a photo of a school principal. It's the same category of offence. People should grow thicker not thinner skin. But being a victim in modern world pays because outrage sells.
- Cthulhu_ 3y agoThat's victim blaming.
- scotty79 3y agoAbsolutely not. Victim blaming is about making victim responsible for the victimization happening. What I'm saying is that in modern attention economy becoming a victim sometimes has a positive economic value for people, especially already popular people, like streamers. So they have monetary incentive to publicly feel more harmed.
- __loam 3y agoYour answer to fake revenge porn is basically "suck it up". Jesus dude.
- concordDance 3y agoYes? Why not? It's not something that's actually being done to them, unlike say, a snearing comment.

- Royaljj 3y agoWhoa - I think we need to be cautious about dismissing genuine concerns around being deepfaked as just victimhood. The issues surrounding deepfake porn are complex than that - they can have significant psychological impact on individuals. Also we really can’t ignore the lack of consent and the abhorrent violation of someone's image. This can’t be boiled down to growing “thicker skin” - there’s pretty major ethical considerations as well as the potential harm it can cause to a person's reputation and mental well-being.
- concordDance 3y agoThe knowledge that the neighbours next door are having gay sex might cause a significant psychological impact on a hyper religous couple, but nonetheless wedo and should ignore that impact as it cannot be mitigated without infringing on important freedoms.
