Wow that is not only predatory, but incredibly unsafe for the girl. They should be charged for inciting harassment, if she had any of that or not.


Lest ye forget, You are the product.



Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.

No I think I share the sentiment. I just think saying f this and f that don’t really help

You should change the link to old.reddit.com so it uses the old version of the site and all can read it.

yeah im working out kinks in this crosspost tool: https://codeberg.org/sanitation/lemmy-deep-lighthouse
people can ultimately change linkback url



Do it disturb you ? No. -> let them do they things Yes -> what is your issue do you want to talk about it ? -> let them do their things


I make that comment any time I see a connection to that shit site.

you think its moving the needle? or is it a fart in a desert?


No-one moves a needle individually, but enough farts move a needle within any micro culture. To put it another way, almost all comments have little value, but if they had 0 value, no-one would or should comment. Your farts don’t smell so great, either, btw.



What does this post have to do with reddit

Can’t you read?

I read the article

Apparently not the user comment on the post

Hi I’m a 12 year old edge Lord!

Help me pick my vape flavor! It needs to match the socks I wear with my sandals.

Damn don’t burn people like this first time in the morning, I nearly laughed in the open space.


How did you know I wore socks with my new Teva’s? It was a fairly long walk while crossing the border between Costa Rica and Panama. No regrets.




Comments from other communities

This is actually fucked up

She could end up being a victim of harassment or even rape due to this

I think you mean “could”?

“Should” implies she deserves it, “could” means it’s a possibility.


I’m assuming that’s a very unfortunate autocorrect.




Headline undersells it: they defamed her by implying she was looking for friends with benefits in an ad, and then harassed her by intentionally buying ad space in her location.

They put her in a lot of danger this way and intentionally because they wanted men in her location to be able to recognize her.
