WHAT I DISLIKE ABOUT MY JOB - PODCAST #51
Added 2022-09-05 22:39:59 +0000 UTCFor the most part, I really enjoy my work in dealing with online predators and posting my experiences about it online, but sometimes I can get annoyed and frustrated at certain things...

2023-12-11 21:13:00 +0000 UTCNot trying to problem solve by problem solving, BUT when i was growing up in my teens, i had friends whose parents shut their phone service off around 11 pm. It was so annoying. I imagine one has to come up with a whole new narrative/identity for predators to be convincing perhaps one can be a young girl with very controlling parents that the girls feels the need to be rebel and needs someone to talk to and predators feed on that emotional vulnerability. Something that helped me cope with my loneliness is from a philosophical perspective. Our painful feeling of loneliness comes from our expectations that we should be with people, we "should" have friends, like my loneliness felt strongest on friday and saturday nights because in my high school u were worthless if you didnt go out with friends those days. Now i hate weekends, everythings fucking crowded because everyones off from work. I got slowly accepted how i had these expectations and leaned into what i love to do which is video games, eating, and surfing. Lol In todays time, we actually dont need friends for survival like we did 100 years ago. We can get by in this age with social interaction. Ive been keeping people at an arms length lately as i dont trust my judgement in who is psychologically safe which perhaps could be the case with you as i feel like all predators are narcisstists (in my experience) so the constant psychopathology you experience on a day to day basis fucks up your ability to trust and shit in your personal life. Every white older male i look at im not gonna lie a judgement intrudes my mind that they could be a client from when i was a webcam model

2022-10-10 23:50:42 +0000 UTCAs a content creator, parasocial relationships were a huge shock. People ended up with such deep and intense (unreciprocated) connections to me built solely on what I posted online and that persona. I guess just don't let it overwhelm you and continue having those strong boundaries up about your personal life.

2022-09-21 20:19:06 +0000 UTCI don't remember if I already commented on this but I say things that aren't really appropriate due from a stroke I had 12 yrs ago at 50. But I have to ask, is that an Epsein bulb in your lamp in the back ground? ๐คญ . I know I don't know you but I really like all your videos and who you show us who you are. Your an intelligent man and you're doing so much to help the innocent. I wish people weren't so dang sensitive about words or phrases, its like they're ready to defend themselves when they really don't need to. Keep having a great life in your new home and bringing us your great videos. Peace to you.

2022-09-14 22:58:29 +0000 UTCYou seem very biased to me. You seem to be missing a lot of information. Even if whatever you're reading is true, how do you know it accurately represents those who are guilty? And how do you know how relevant their "LGBTQ+ status" is to their crimes? How would you know those things? I'm genuinely asking, by the way. Many don't know how to read stats properly or even what you can actually conclude from them. I'd also like to ask what evidence you have for homosexuality, bisexuality and transgenderism being created, or "lead on" as you say, by psychological trauma. Anyway, someone is not more likely to be a predator just because they're in the LGBTQ community. That's just not how it works. PEOPLE are predators. People. Some are gay, some are trans, some are cis, some are white, some are black, some are women, etc. It really bothers me that you said "For some reason, the LGBT community really avoids discussing the reality of these numbers and how to lower them". Its not the LGBTQ+ community's responsibility to eliminate child abuse. It's EVERYONE'S responsibility - yours and mine included. Plus, if you genuinely don't see what possible reason people have for not wanting to discuss the topic of child abuse, it says a lot to me. In my opinion, you should focus more on what us, as people, can do to fix our world's horrific problems, rather than point fingers at the "type of people" you feel make future predators/abusers. Pointing fingers like that doesn't solve anything. You'll be missing many, many more outside of your little group. But if you really can't help it or you feel its productive, then at least point fingers at those guilty of such actions.

2022-09-10 00:33:15 +0000 UTCAnother reason I like the chat logs included/ why I have included some of the chats in the catches I have done is it shows everything leading up to the confrontation

2022-09-08 22:50:18 +0000 UTCPlease don't cut the chat logs it's the best part, I find it fascinating what they say to a young human. I feel no difference if you do or don't confront them but the chat log is where it's at for me. Also people need to get a filter, like if you wouldn't say it to your face then they shouldn't comment that or maybe don't be asking personal things if you don't know the person.

2022-09-08 21:14:57 +0000 UTCMarxist wordplay honestly, buzzwords pronouns whatever all so indifferent in the face of protecting children which is what really matters. As seen in your work and in crime statistics there's a dissproportionate amount of gays represented in predators as % of overall population. It's not a coincidence these numbers, as wells as trans "identifying" individuals and homosexuals has increased every year. A huge portion of gays have also been sexually molested by parents, another overrepresented % against general population. This vicious cycle of abuse is exactly how the predators you see come to be. For some reason, the LGBT community really avoids discussing the reality of these numbers and how to lower them. There is, as you say, being gay and who cares, lots of normal gay people from birth - but unfortunately there seems to be a much darker type of homosexuality or transgenderism that's lead on from psychological trauma and abuse aka predators or parental predators in the home. It's sad and will not go away as long as certain people in the community shadow it and ignore it. Re: not here to argue with emotions and garbage reddit tier logic, see Archives of Sexual Behavior via Springer for data I'm sourcing. Not my problem that truth is "revealed" to you rather than tested and proven.

2022-09-06 01:23:28 +0000 UTCI'm glad you're open about your opinions rather than pandering because either way there will ALWAYS be someone who feels the need to complain rather than having a discussion :') Anyways, keep up the good work man! Congrats on your move out of the city. Its 100% worth the slow internet (which also might be a helpful excuse to use on extra clingy predators)
