Pretty bold talk for someone who setup a snitch line lol. But it’s a good phrase to follow. Unfortunately lots of people use it when they’re engaging in felonious levels of criminal behavior on a corporate and government level. Hating regulation, wanting small small small government - it’s all because they want to engage in exploitative, unethical, toxic and criminal business practices and they want the government to fuck off about it.
But I digress lol :-)
Yes because it's none of my business what other people do with their autonomy and they should be protected in their right to do what they want to do with their autonomy
No I don’t approve sex work. Who am I? The sex work administration? Do you need a stamp from me to perform sex work? No?
Then who cares?
Why not? People have less and less other jobs to do. From stories of courtesans realise that life forced them to do it. So that we understand each other - if you are "bitching", do it not on the side, but officially - because then the other party suffers - in false version.
Like most people say here, if that's something you want to do that's all good so long as you're protected by law and workers' rights and all that jazz. Personally, though, I don't really understand it. I mean, why would anybody want to do this with all the risks (rape, diseases)? I'm open to receiving perspectives and education, currently I just don't really "get" it.
The choice/situation blends in with every occupation so as long as no aggression or wrongful leverage is involved.
Always a great question to ask software nerds. Great thread idea dude!
