I’ve been at this thing for a while now. 3 years writing independently. Longer than that in forums. Even longer than that in long form.
You’d think by now that we would see a difference in the venom that some of these assholes are spewing, some of the rhetoric they’re spitting, some of the filth they’re absolutely comfortable committing to writing.
Let me tell you, there’s been no change. This shit is still going strong. Giving it a name, several names, hasn’t slowed the movement. It’s still just as strong as it ever was.
Why? What is fostering this blatant fucking disrespect of women as a whole? Why are dudes, like the screenshotted piece of shit above, comfortable using their every day handles while saying women deserve to be raped, that we asked to be raped?
Because there are no consequences. You can report shit like this all day long, nobody does anything about them.
Those of you who have been with me through my growth know how many platforms you can find me on. Substack, Medium, Hubpages, Quora, Reddit, and the list goes on and on.
I’ve reported shit like this on every single platform. I can assure you, the only action has been inaction.
These dickheads don’t even try to smokescreen. Bob from accounting is perfectly comfortable talking about how women asked for it, right after the post of his company picnic photos with his wife and kids.
This shit is barely even frowned upon.
However, little Becky the receptionist had better not have an Onlyfans or she’s getting let go for her ill representation of the company.
Now, hol’ up, ho, explain this to me. Good ol’ Bob can be A-ok with rape, and your entire supply chain can see that on his public page, but Becky and her private OF is a fucking disgrace, huh?
Oh. I see. Yeah, it’s getting a lot clearer now.
We keep allowing this shit to be kept under wraps. We keep allowing these fucks to talk this way about us instead of calling them to the mat, holding them responsible for the shit that they say. They’re still okay with saying shit like this because they’re still not being publically shamed for it.
I’ll bet you if I took full-color slides into Bobs’ next team meeting and aired this shit out for everyone, he’d shut the fuck up next time somebody didn’t ask for his stupid ass opinion.
I used to call these guys out damned near daily for this shit. It looks like I really need to get back to that practice because this is hateful and disgusting. This pig didn’t even attempt to smokescreen, he just went full blast with his normal, everyone has my handle, social media accounts.
So, I decided I would call him flat out on it, then screenshot and repost him everywhere. And I’ll do it again. And again. You wanted everyone to know how you felt about the sexual assault of women, so, cool, let me fucking help you.
By the time I am finished, there won’t be anyone on any platform who doesn’t know what this fucking Bozo has to say about it. As it should be.
Once the right person gets this information, shit will take root. I just have to keep plugging at it until something gives. I have a long memory, a lot of screenshots, and so much of me doesn’t give any singular fuck.
Feel free to send me your “caught in the wild” screenshots, I’ll have a go at them too. This shit has got to stop, and it obviously isn’t going to until it becomes a full-on campaign.
Cool. I’ve been looking for something to do in my spare time. I’ll take this one, y’all.
