San Francisco unveils “intervention cards” for when you get attacked on the train: pic.twitter.com/XuPINhQfEk

If you wonder what the hell is this:
The groundbreaking, youth-driven Not One More Girl initiative that addresses sexual harassment and gender-based violence on BART expanded with the launch of Phase II in August 2023 with new strategies to build a culture of supporting girls* when riding transit. Read about Phase I of the campaign.
*“Girls” refers to gender-expansive youth (cis girls, trans girls, non-binary youth, gender nonconforming youth, gender queer youth and any girl-identified youth).
I do not know was sadder: That they believe some Woke Monopoly cards will curb criminals or that the term for girls is now a flypaper that catches all kinds of imaginary sexual identifiers.
PS: Self defense still verbotten.

WTF?
Are you sure this isn’t some elaborate April Fools joke?
“Once everybody has these cards, then we can feel safe!”.
Well, there are lots of people who think that “restraining orders” protect anyone. Oleg Volk created a great image for that (“paper0209”, I can’t find it anymore). Caption: “Stop a stalker with a piece of paper? Really? Worth of a restraining order is measures by the training and weapons backing it up.”
I pray that this is an April Fools joke, because if it is true, then it is literally too stupid to insult.
Jesus women really will do anything but carry a gun to “protect” themselves.
.
Also all these people kill me. They constantly want a 3rd party to intervene but have no idea what that means legally and civilly for someone who does. Change the laws so my life doesn’t get destroyed for helping when I insert myself into a situation on a strangers behalf and end up having to defend myself.
.
Weird, its almost like there used to be an entire group of people whose purpose was to do stuff like this. Can’t quite put my finger on what they were called….
Capes? Carps? Pollards, maybe?
Men
And what happens when you are tired and convicted for, basically, interfering? Given what happens to good Samaritans these days, would you be willing to put your family’s future at risk?
.
I’d hate to have to live with myself, but I’d hate even more leaving my family without support and defense for years to come.
I was just saying we used to have men who would step in. We don’t because those who do are punished.
Wait… what?
No… seriously, people are actually this stupid? Sexual harassment will be reduced by signage?
.
Then again… it is the same crowd that thinks No Guns Allowed signs will stop a killer.
If signage would stop crime, forget “No Guns” or “No Raping”.
.
Just put up a “No Crime” sign. Put them up on every lamp post, fence post, tree, bench, and fire hydrant. Make the whole city a posted “Crime-Free Zone”, and make it a crime to do crimes in a “Crime-Free Zone”.
.
That’ll fix everything for sure!
I’ve seen actively insane behavior.
Can I be ascended to Heaven now? Please!
If you’re one who believes in the Pre-Tribulation Rapture, then there are two possibilities: Either it’s coming, and soon …
.
… or it’s already happened and we’re well and truly screwed.

Fun times to be alive, eh? 😀
