This is the reason why the entire push for "Yes Means Yes" style laws and Title IX prosecution is terrifying. At some point it would simply be optimal to record your own surrounding for your own sake, lest you end up as a juicy target for rising democratic prosecutor or attention hungry "Activists". its not the "Surveillance State" americans should really be worried about, but their own DAs and bureaucrats in Department of "Education".
- dudul 11y ago"At some point it would simply be optimal to record your own surrounding for your own sake" Well, this article clearly shows how even with evidences, as a man displeasing a woman you are guilty in the system. Sad, but the morale of this case is simple: don't interact with millennial women.
- mattzito 11y agoIf the moral of this case that you take away is, "Don't interact with milennial women", I think you have a very skewed view of the world.
- dudul 11y agoWhat is the moral to you?
- emodendroket 11y agoProsecutors essentially have the power to ruin anyone's life capriciously. It's not as though sexual assault is the only sort of crime people are ever falsely accused of.
- dudul 11y agoThat's a good point, but sexual assault is the perfect fit for greedy prosecutors who want to score a big win before an election. Sexual assault is the only crime where there is sometimes not even real proof that the crime actually happened. As opposed to a murder or a theft or financial montages. Most of the time all we have is the word of a woman saying it happened. Sexual assault is the only crime where we lower the bar of "beyond reasonable doubt".
- emodendroket 11y agoI don't really agree with you. And even if you're right about sexual assault being uniquely suited to this, what difference does it make whether the alleged victim is a millennial, or even a woman?
