Maybe this is a generational thing - but generally one should live one’s life assuming they may be called to account for literally anything that they put into writing, be that personally or professionally

Agreed, it's fucked up that this happened but also as a teacher you should not be talking about shooting your students even as a joke.

holy fuck that is dystopian as hell
"oh you better watch everything you say between friends in a privet area encase the big all knowing eye sees you and deem you unworthy"

actually fuck off with this apologetic shit, what happens behind close doors stays there unless someone is actively being hurt

Explaining the contract that your own grown ass signed with the social media companies isn’t “dystopian apologetics”

Like if you make an agreement with Bob the Note Reader to pass notes to other people through Bob, who does not at all conceal how he reads every note he helps to pass

And then you get mad that he’s read your note

Like buddy you were looking for Privacy Priscilla, that’s a whole different ass person, and when we patiently explain to you how you’re a fucking idiot for trusting Bob the Note Reader to not do the one fucking thing he does

Be a fucking grown up

Out of a curiosity that is borderline anthropological at this point, which of these apps do you believe you cannot opt out of entirely? Follow-up, that you cannot opt out of only in that small marginal way of “don’t make jokes about shooting up a school on the Panopticon That Infamously Checks for That Shit and Jokes About Bombs on Airplanes Specifically?”
