Fumbled the bag. Life doesn't give you many options to sue the fuck outta someone and take em for all they're worth

That’s like going full kamikaze, wrecking your opponent and somehow surviving the act.

[–] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 22 points 1 week ago (2 children)

So really only like half kamikaze

What a woman.

Reminds me of the Paris woman who testified to her abuser. Was in tabloids. Called that monster out.

The strength it takes is awe inspiring.

I really loved how she was recognised pretty unanimously as the badass that she is. Society has a lot of deeply rooted problematic beliefs around sexual assault, but Gisèle Pélicot's bravery was a definite step towards unravelling those icky attitudes.

Why not release just his threats?

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 28 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

In that situation you're still admitting the threats have power over you; by releasing the photos yourself, you both out the person as fucking scum and demonstrate that their threat was completely impotent, delivering a one-two punch to the ego.

I don't get it, either. It's like being threatened to get shot and releasing the threat and shooting yourself.

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That analogy only works if your nudes being out there hurts or at least bothers you. Maybe she doesn't care or planned to do it herself someday?

You take away all the power if you follow through with releasing them yourself.

Doing it differently could prevent him from doing this bullshit to someone else. Some people need to face consequences so their last few brain cells understand they're ass holes.
