@semiotechnic Liberalism used to have rules about manners and keeping politics out of the public square, for good reason.

@semiotechnic The error is: I may speak of (to) you freely, it is deeply offensive that you should reply. That's a privilege claim. -
@semiotechnic Specifically, privilege to treat public spaces as private when it's convenient. That's a very weird kind of social power. -
@semiotechnic Emperor's New Clothes come to mind: the right to strut about naked and demand other people's eyes clothe you.

@St_Rev@semiotechnic I can read that comic as, the human is embarassed, knows she was wrong and knows the sea lion knows she knows, -
@AlleleOfGene@semiotechnic Yeah, but I think a lot of people read it as "the sea lion's behavior proves she was right in the first place". -
@St_Rev@semiotechnic I read it as sarcastically suggesting that, though really the sea lion is making a new transgression. -
@St_Rev@semiotechnic But yeah I can see that. Actually the sea lion is guilty of criminal harassment but it's so cartoonist I don't -
@St_Rev@semiotechnic even read it as actual harassment. -
@AlleleOfGene@St_Rev@semiotechnic The sea lion is *a* bad guy in the comic. Comic just fails to refer to the real life phen it's sposed to -
@AlleleOfGene@St_Rev@semiotechnic The first statement "I don't care for SLs" is theoretically public but really semi-private. -
@AlleleOfGene@St_Rev@semiotechnic SL then follows into house - unambiguously private - and demands debate. - 2 more replies
