I find it alarming that to "protect" women, men have to be surveilled secretly in all public places. This is way beyond dystopian.

AI and remote security personnel get to decide if someone is "a predator" and take 'em down preemptively if they look suspicious.

What could possibly go wrong?

What the fuck‽

Edit: this was meant as a firm and horrified disagreement as a feminist, not as actual confusion or surprise. The UK has been finding whatever justification they can pull out of their ass to increase surveillance and control

    key premise of identify politics is that you are guilty of the sins of the group you belong to.

    in this case, if you are a man, you are guilty of the crime of potentially raping women.

    You are going to see al to more of this kind of crap, from 'progressive' people in the next decade.
