Damn youāre thick.
You really donāt get the idea of the Schroedinger Rapist, do you?
I understand risk and security, sure. I carry a weapon everywhere I go because I understand it intimately.
I just object to the idea a person is ābeing terrorizedā by that situation. As if all the people interacting with them are terrorists, because they are too confused about their relationship to their own fear and safety to carry a weapon.
I got terrorized by one person once, and now I keep that weapon on me at every moment Iām not behind my own locked doors. I do not believe that I am being terrorized, simply because I live in a dangerous environment.
Words have meaning, and the meaning matters. A person who is anxious is not, thereby, being āterrorizedā.
āSchrodingerās rapistā indeed, as if the concept of a dangerous environment didnāt exist before the year 2010 when that term got coined by people who think theyāre the first to encounter the world.
