@iwriteok.bsky.social offended the overlords by suggesting that AI evangelicals drink bleach. I guess that people who think corporations or the US government will supply UBI to all unemployed people are a protected class here. Bksky keeps showing us THEIR bias.

Guys, be so heroic, yet I was the one who stopped a man from removing the woman he had roofied from the bar. I was the one who physically removed a woman from a man's unwanted embrace. I made a scene to draw attention to a problem... Just like it was always a woman who had done it for me.

I remember so many times when men I knew, or just observed, but the friends hurt my soul more, did nothing. "He's just joking," "You know he's harmless." "What are you talking about? I didn't hear/see it." For every guy I've seen intervene, I know 5 women off the top of my head who stepped in.
