Not really any better. Soliciting (presumably) high school students via their phone or via social media is fucked up.

    Point being the text exchange doesn’t require consent, as the profiles are publicly accessible. Nothing to do with whether it’s right/wrong.

    The comment you responded to said it was "creepy", not that it wasn't allowed. That it's allowed doesn't make it any less messed up, and looking to argue semantics in this discussion and divert it onto trivialities just paints you as sympathetic to the practice or actively looking to aid it.

    So, exactly what you’re doing right now?

    Calling out your bs diversionary response. This one too. And at this point I will stop engaging you and recommend everyone else do so as well, as you have illustrated wonderfully that you're not interested in actually discussing anything meaningful.
