Sounds like the ex made a good decision breaking up with anon

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 125 points 1 month ago

I'm confused, OP befriended their ex? Or is the skinny bitch a dude?

Did OP just make this all up? Is this just fake and gay?

[-] Hegar@fedia.io 75 points 1 month ago

Yes. No. Yes. Yes but not gay.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 1 month ago

it's always gay. no exceptions.

It's fucked up that anyone can do this and ruin a person's life

[-] Hegar@fedia.io 71 points 1 month ago

Luckily green text is fiction, no one really did this.

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

This actually did happen and that's probably what the green text is based off of.

I remember reading the article a few years ago, linked off of Reddit iirc, so if someone wants to go wade in those waters again you'll probably find it

Now that you mention it, it does sound familiar. I'm not sure if it's a constructed memory on my part though.

Given that people have done things like spash acid on their former partners' faces and say things like "if I can't have you then no one can" then I'm not terribly surprised that someone might try something like this.

But you're right, in general I don't trust green texts as truth. This could easily just be someone summarizing a story that happened as a green text though (which is a common thing).

Can't download things on your laptop if you don't give them your laptop

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Can't victim blame if there's no victim to blame.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Offering advice to prevent such a situation isn't victim blaming

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world -2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Advice after the fact is a useless lecture, a form of victim blaming.

Saying "if you hadn't done x, crime y wouldn't have happened" to the victim of a crime is the very definition of victim blaming.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

OOP isn't in this thread. I don't think the user you're chastising intended to give OOP advice, the advice was for the rest of us.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world -2 points 1 month ago

Still textbook victim blaming rather than the benevolent "advice" you seem adamant to reframe it as.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Sure, champ. Everything is victim blaming.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago

Nope. But "you wouldn't have been a victim if not for trusting your apparent friend" very much is.

People trust their friends with their laptops without being victimized every fucking day.

Why did you put that in quotation marks when it's not at all what they said? It's not a quote, it's barely even a paraphrase.

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 14 points 1 month ago

Even scarier that malware can do this and use your device as a distribution node

[-] dwindling7373@feddit.it 12 points 1 month ago

Becouse obviously the police will not question anything in such a circumstance.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago

I mean I can't. I have no idea where to begin to look for stuff like that.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

You could ask Jordan Peterson

I'd link the tweet where he said that it's "impossible to find child pornography here anymore" as a way to pretend that Musk fixed Twitter, but I couldn't find it and now my search algorithm is probably fucked after trying several different queries with the words "Jordan Peterson child porn" in them 🤦😂

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

If the police are there right now, nod twice.

the police or the poster?

[-] LowleeKun@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

I mean, hopefully you also have not tried because before finding things, you might find hints to find things. What i am trying to say is, there are many bad things that you will only find once you seek it out, but once you do it is not hard (enough).

[-] Omniraptor@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

If you read the post it says the cop didn't buy it and anon got charged themselves instead.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Not really no.

It will be decided by a court case.

[-] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 78 points 1 month ago

You need to [redacted] hex editor to [redacted]. You should never do that to someone though.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
