Nobody else seems to think that building a culture of consent specially around sex & touch in a be-instrumentalized-or-die society is odd.
@fullnihilism Work or starve, with a special emphasis on work as conversion into a tool to achieve someone else's purposes.

@chaosprime so it's sort of absurd that we have this one area we take issue with consent/agency? is that what you mean? -
@fullnihilism Yup. Consent is be-all end-all if it's in sex or sex-proximate, and completely irrelevant shit in every other possible way. -
@chaosprime idk, i think it concerns me in other areas of my life. i mean, by choosing to work for someone over self employment... -
@fullnihilism *nod* i try to respect people's agency in general, which is what points up what a fucking uphill battle that is. -
@fullnihilism half the time people think you're a weirdo for it. -
@fullnihilism but hey, if we cared about consent in general, we'd prolly wind up socialists—or worse, anarchists—& that's no way to get rich -
@chaosprime yeah, i think that's the rub. there's only so much room for agency when we're living in this structure
