And rightfully so.

    It can still happen through bad actors… I have a friend who was dumped by someone a few years ago, but to make themselves fell better they spread false rumors about my friend.

    However, spy/pervert glasses wouldn’t have been usefull. You can’t prove you didn’t do something with recording…

      Maybe, maybe not. But when someone is doing character assassinations out of spite you want all cards you have to defend yourself.

      Yeah perv glasses ain’t gonna do jack shit for most types of character assassinations, maybe it could help with a scuffle or something but I find that the best thing to do in that situation is to come across as bored and vaguely irritated while giving your side to the cops in the aftermath. Seriously cops love it when you give dry but pissy explanations since it’s easy to write down.

        See, you’re already walking back your comments.To admit that there are times when it could be warranted. Glad you are growing, but I’ll say right now, I don’t like you and your character sucks. Therefore you are bow a victim of character assassination.

          Piss off, I said best case not good case. Also should I care if ya think my character is ass? I know what I am and it works out well for me. Also please do try to assassinate my character properly it’d be funny, especially since I’m pretty sure at least one mod somewhere on lemmy world has me marked as being problematic.

          Now usually I’d tell you to go die via some horrid historical reference but frankly I think it’d go over your head. So instead I shall tell thee to go feed the Joshua Trees, they hunger.
