Alias Detective 1,400 Posted June 16, 2022 WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris and administration officials on Thursday launched a task force dedicated to fighting online harassment and abuse, which they warned can be a precursor to real-life violence. “The internet is an essential part of life in the 21st century,” Harris said, but for many — particularly women, people of color, and people who are not heterosexual — “the internet is a place of fear.” The task force will address several issues, including prevention of online abuse and services for people who are targeted. It is scheduled to issue recommendations for the federal government and private companies in 180 days. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/kamala-harris-launches-white-house-task-force-on-online-harassment-and-abuse-01655408900?mod=mw_latestnews Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,790 Posted June 16, 2022 Yeah, backstory. You can Google this. It was either Japan or Taiwan or one of them yellow slanty eyed countries that literally just in the past few days passed a law that you could be thrown in jail for being mean online. Got to think these things are correlated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBayXXXVII 2,545 Posted June 17, 2022 13 hours ago, Cdub100 said: Do you actually think they will target them? Absolutely not. What'll happen is that they're going to find that the same people who are the victims are the ones doing the bullying. Not the same people exactly, but the same group/demographic. I'm also willing to bet that there's a good portion of "victims" who aren't even victims. Meaning that someone isn't actually fat, but because they're soy boys, they'll be offended on behalf of someone who is fat, claim that they are fat, and report the person doing the bullying. The best part is that they'll find out that the person doing the bullying is probably a non-straight/non-white/non-thin person, and nothing will happen. They're going to find this out, and then they'll slowly walk away from this and pretend it never happened. The other possible outcome is that they do start prosecuting these people and find out that there's a disproportionate number of minorities getting prosecuted and that it's just another sign of systemic racism. Of course, it'll all be because of white Republican's like everything else, even though it's only manned by Democrats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I didn't have to be online all day for my job, I'm not sure I would use the internet for anything other than buying something here or there, fantasy football, and that's about it. I could get used to a life with very little laptop time. The 80s were a great time to grow up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Horseman 2,458 Posted August 12, 2022 On this, the second anniversary of Joe Biden's worst decision for the Democrats ever, picking Momala for VP, I'd like to point out their conundrum. Joe cant run for a second term. He cant even ride a bike, put on a jacket or complete a coherent sentence. What do they do with the traditional next in line. Kamala wont just go away. You know shes dumb enough to want to be the nominee. The optics, the quagmire, the pick spells doom for the dummy Dems in 2024. Trump or DeSantis or any person with a heartbeat will mop the floor with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
