} 029 - [VIDEO, public] - in which Amanda acts like there are huge double standards

[creatingalegacy]

[Amanda is, as usual, sitting in her room, upon the bed. The difference is that, aside from her bed and clothing, her room is completely bare. Guess who lost all her stuff again? Amanda doesn't actually care about this issue at all, but that won't stop her from purposefully trying to sow anger and unrest!]

Suggest double standard exists due to erratic behavior of class:Inmate compared to class:Warden.

[Rinzler senses a flaw in your argument.]

[creatingalegacy]

If an inmate had done this they would have been hauled to Zero immediately. However, Sexby was allowed to walk around a free man until after the Marquis received medical treatment--even though his inmate announced that Sexby was the culprit! Because he was a warden, they overlooked the need to penalize him for beating an old man.

What part of that sounds reasonable to you?

[She really cares very little about the issue at hand. She just wants to create discord.]

[ifightfor]

"Reasonable" a User concept.

Suggest immediate response to Inmate behavior founded in likelihood that aggressive Inmate will continue pattern of aggression against other individuals and/or property; aggressive Warden acting out personal grudge and therefore harmless to uninvolved individuals.

Level of response proximate to level of threat as matter of efficiency.

[creatingalegacy]

Since the people involved are "users," "user" concepts account for all of it. You should refrain from judging things you're incapable of comprehending.

He's really tired of being referred to as an "old man" in all this.

[impure_tale]

Oh shut up about double standards!

The reason why there has been a delay is because I have not requested any assistance short of a doctor. I had no interest in demanding that he be jailed when I had not hours before said to the other Wardens in plain view that I don't recognize their right to police me or anyone else.

She's finally ticked someone off! This is what she considers a victory :c

[creatingalegacy]

So you advocate not policing the wardens at all, even when they're a danger to others?

[impure_tale]

I advocate rectifying my own troubles. I care not what the rest of you do so long as it does not affect myself or my Inmate.

[creatingalegacy]

And yet you don't recognize their "right" to police anyone else, in your own words. I'll assume "anyone" means wardens, but even so, that means your ideal governance is one where you're all free to act with impunity.

Private; HOFFMAN MOCKS YOUR ATTEMPTS AT SOWING DISCORD!

[expectremorse]

I agree.

[annnnd that's all you get.]

Private

[creatingalegacy]

Get fucked.

Private

[expectremorse]

C'mon. Fake a little interest and pretend to agree with me. I bet we'll both get brownie points.

Re: Private

[creatingalegacy]

These comments are fuckin' private, asshole. Only you and I can see them.

[neuroticalson]

Yeah, there is a double standard.

But see, we can make our own double standards. For example, if I lash out at a warden, they'd put me in glorified time out. If a warden lashed out at me, well shit, I'd do whatever I could think of. And it'd be worse than boredom.

[creatingalegacy]

Double standards enforced by those in power are most damaging. While I'm sure your retaliation would be worse on an individual level, a systematic double standard is symptomatic of a greater disease.

[She smiles.]

And these sick fucks don't want the cure for it.

[neuroticalson]

They can piss around with their systems and their double standards all they want. I don't think they're realizing what they're dealing with. Even if I have to chip away at it slowly.

The only thing they can take away from me is time. Sounds like a fucking joke. You ever hear the one about the people who tried to take time away from a dead guy?

[creatingalegacy]

I've been here for nearly a year now, and I can say from experience that chipping away at their foundation takes a long time. I'm in this for the long haul...are you?

Can't say I have, no.

trolling is always welcome!

[creatingalegacy]

People are listening and responding. So long as what I say makes them think, it's enough.

[creatingalegacy]

I'm not looking to convince a faceless mob. My aim is to change a few minds at a time.
