I tell my kids all the time. Do not do anything you don’t want caught on camera. In this world anything can be brought up against you in your future.
Sometimes yes. Look at how the comments on this got taken and twisted.
Fact is this girl was doing nothing wrong but due to others beliefs she has lost something she has worked hard for.
Fact is this girl was doing nothing wrong
In your own words, according to you, she did do something wrong: she did she wouldn’t want being filmed. (Note: she wasn’t actually the one twerking.)
Look at how the comments on this got taken and twisted.
Nobody twisted your comments. We just read what you wrote and considered the context in which you wrote it. (That last detail is something you seem to have not done.)
But also, like, dancing with your friends shouldn’t ruin your future because your school system imposes their religious values as a moral “code”.
A PUBLIC school system. Parents should sue the absolute fuck out of the school for using religion to justify a punishment.
Assumed it was a christian school based on her comment. A public school pulling this is absolutely unacceptable.
Where do private schools come in to this?
It was a PUBLIC high school that pulled her scholarship. Learn to read you fuckin troglodyte.
hard agree some poor kid getting molested by a priest praying to cold dead silence… either gods sending kidfuckers to earth or he’s just standing by and watching it happen. I feel like churning down a burch
Rally’s comment is generally good advice, and doesn’t place blame on anyone.
It’s in response to a girl getting punished for being recorded doing nothing wrong. Read the room and the context. It absolutely is victim blaming.
I never said that. I never made a comment about the person in the article. Just my life experience. We are all free to do whatever want. I would never yuck somebody else’s yum. It’s just sad in this age almost everything you do can be brought up against you in the future. I just want my kids to be aware of this and that is all.
2003: don’t do anything stupid, maybe there’s some camera that can record it.
2023: record me with the camera, I’m going to do something stupid
My parents loved reminding me of this. Now I have debilitating social anxiety.
I don’t give a shit if someone catches me dancing on camera. There’s nothing wrong with it, who cares?
God. God cares. He loves everyone and is omnipotent, but also really judgy and bitchy because reasons. And he’s watching you so closely that you can reach out and touch his bloodshot ethereal eyeball. Well, if it wasn’t ethereal, anyway. So don’t ever let that aspirin fall from between your knees. He’ll know if it does. And send plague of Karens to shame you. But only because he loves you and demands obedience.
Wow, I went to sleep, and my comment got bombed to hell.
Let me clarify to anyone reading these comments. I don’t agree at all with what happened to this girl. It’s unfair and wrong on so many levels. The principle comments are gross and uncalled for.
All I did was put advise out there that I give to my children to help navigate that world as we see it.
You expect us to believe your comment has nothing to do with the article, and just by coincidence, you happened to post “I tell my kids not to do anything they wouldn’t want being filmed” in response to an article about someone facing consequences for somebody else doing something that was filmed, and we are all the bad guys for unfairly assuming tha your comment had anything at all to do with the article it was posted in response to?
They are related of course. That is the point of a discussion post. But the jump to victim shaming is improper. I am not saying anyone is a bad guy here, never have or implied that. Just stating my point and people are assuming things about my post. I’ll take it as a learning lesson to be clearer in the future.
