nayrt

is it really so fucked up that someone got fired for dragging their workplace into an online argument?

are you really going to compare that to rape?

[(Anonymous)]

I'll compare it to anyone doing something that puts them in a position where someone else can take advantage of them, yes.

The fact that they put themselves in that position may very well be stupid, it may very well be reckless and dangerous, but it in no way makes it okay for the person taking that advantage to do it.

YMMV.

[(Anonymous)]

she wasn't taken advantage of, tho. she wasn't a victim. she behaved in a way her work deemed inappropriate and unprofessional, and was fired because of that. or is it victim blaming to refer to a firing as anything other than wrongful? it's possible that she might have faced consequences even had her boss simply stumbled across the post where she dared people to call her work and complain about her.

[(Anonymous)]

There's a pretty big difference, I'd say, between putting yourself in a situation where ypu could be taken advantage of and daring someone + acting unprofessionally.

You comparing this to rape is pretty fucked up.

[(Anonymous)]

Then don't compare it to rape.

Compare it to someone leaving a hundred dollars on the seat of a car that's unlocked.

Compare it to someone leaving their bank details on a park bench.

Compare it to someone getting drunk and wandering around in an area known for muggings.

You're still absolving the perpetrator of any fucked up behavior because your argument is that the other party's behavior "deserved what they got." And that is a) never okay regardless of the situation, and b) the central core of what ANY apologist's argument rests on.

You apparently not seeing that, or choosing not to in this case because it suits your argument, is far, far more fucked up.

The "perpetrator" in this case is her boss, who fired her for dragging her online drama to her place of work. It isn't "fucked up behavior" to fire an employee for behaving unprofessionally.

[(Anonymous)]

The "perpetrator/s" are whoever drew this to the attention of the boss in the first place, out of petty and chidish "omg someone said something on the internet I don't like!" baby-rage.

[(Anonymous)]

It sounds like both sides were assholes, but she should have known she was dealing with assholes who would act assholishly, given the immediate situation of escalating assholery. So it was just plain stupid of her to give them more ammunition.

If someone is outside my house yelling threats I am not going to unlock the door and dare them to come in and steal my stuff. They still shouldn't do it, but having demonstrated that they would it's dumb of me to make it easy for them.

[(Anonymous)]

I'd compare it more to a fight where arguing escalates and someone says "Well if you hate me so much just kill me!". If the other person does it, they are still the one to blame for it, no matter how much they were provoked.

[(Anonymous)]

SA--it's more like an argument that escalates to the point where someone says, "well if you're so big, let's see you egg my house!" and gives out their street address. The assholes who threw the eggs are still assholes, but the other people who live in the house are still going to be rightfully pissed at the moron who gave out their address.

[(Anonymous)]

Sorry, but I think getting someone fired just because you don't agree with their opinions is a bir worse than egging someone's house.

[(Anonymous)]

SA--also, since nobody was murdered, and the bad behaviour stops well short of murder, it's a little overzealous to draw that comparison. Actually killing someone is a few degrees more serious than deciding to send a nasty stupid email after someone dared you you do it.
