OMG Boobs! Does nobody think of the Children?!?!?!?!
Pathetic
Might read past the headline.
Another “very drunk” woman was filmed rubbing her behind against the screen, while a different video shows a man
One person on the Irish side went as far as to show the New Yorkers images of 9/11 on his phone
Probably wasn’t the only time. People generally being people is probably why they shut it down.
Thatll stop em from being people
Fun fact: Women being topless is not illegal in NYC.
Of course something this genuinely cool is going to be misused. Of course.
I don’t see how this is misuse, some people are just terrified of sex and nudity.
I wouldn’t say terrified. There’s these things called dignity and respect. NYC gave up on those a long time ago.
I’m sure this was killed by bitchy socially conservative sheltering types who freak out about anything that doesn’t fit in their small minded view of morality.
Lemmy is full of those people too, there’s a whole thread of them angry that openI might allow NSFW content.
God forbid people have concerns about ethics.
No one forces you to stare at the girl. People see offensive shit every day all over, but society doesn’t conform to all offenses equally, does it? Why is your ethics enforceable, but other people’s aren’t? Why does she have less right to practice her ethical choice to expose her body (assuming by your answer you would have offense)? Why is it more ethical to have others right to view taken away than for you to simply turn your head away? Ethics is very subjective, especially when there is no direct harm to either party.
It is against the law. That means that society, as a whole, has decided that this is immoral.
No one forces you to stare at the girl
So that means that its morally okay to kill everyone who looks at me (“No one forces then to look at me!”)?
Why is your ethics enforceable, but other people’s aren’t?
Because ethics are only enforcable through laws and the laws currently enforce “my” ethics in that regard.
Why does she have less right to practice her ethical choice to expose her body (assuming by your answer you would have offense)?
Whether that is morally right is an ethical question but would you say the same about a minor (exposing themselves)?
Ethics is very subjective
Exactly, so what is the issue with the company having moral concerns about it and shutting it down?
To be fair to the yanks, you sowed us nice boobies and we showed you our pale arses, cocaine and videos of 9/11.
This girl should not get the blame here.
How did New York come out sounding like the wholesome part of this story?
Isn’t the purpose of the art piece to demonstrate the human condition across an ocean? Flashing/mooning/offensive memes, that is what humans do. This should stay up and more should be put in place. How much more culturally connected would cities in the US be linked to other UK or EU cities?
Imagine some dude would have pulled out his dick instead, what do you think the reaction would have been?
That’s not the same thing. What would be the same is if some dude pulled his shirt up to show his bare chest. What do you think the reaction would have been in that case?
Look, you might be technically correct but I’m sure you’re old enough to understand the difference between a guy’s chest a pair of boobs so I’m just gonna leave it here.
I’m sure a lot of people enjoyed the display but what about those who didn’t ask for it?
But, everyone loves boobs. Not everyone loves dick. Flashing a dick is often interpreted as aggressive. Tits, not so much. Everyone has put boobs in their mouth and liked it at one point during their lives. A good chunk of people have never sucked a dick (or want to).
We all love boobs. They kept most of us alive when we were little and they’re fun as fuck when we’re older. Most people are behind the “free the nipple” thing. Why you trying to see less boobs? The world is already such a dark place without less boobs.
More boobs, I say. Boobs everywhere. Boobs for everyone. Boobs could bring the world together. And then, we could finally heal.
Yes, everyone loves boobs but not every loves seeing them in public without any warning. First of all, there could be children present in this setting, and second, sex addiction is a thing and flashing boobs to someone struggling with it is kinda like forcing a recovering alcholic to take a shot.
They’re literally for children by definition. Much of the world has no issue with boobs.
For TODDLERS. Holy hell, if you’re trying to have an argument, at least don’t make an elementary category mistake. And also don’t just ignore the other half of my argument because it’s inconvenient to your defense.
You are either a troll or very ignorant. Not everyone loves boobs, the same way as everyone has shit themselves countless times as a baby and liked it(You can literally see the joy on a baby’s face right after they relieve themselves), but that does not mean that it is an enjoyable thing for every grownup out there.
Depends if they’re just flopping it flaccidly from side to side or angrily masturbating. Same goes for if a woman were to start rubbing one off. Nudity isn’t sexual, but what you do with it could be.
You know this kinda makes me think that it would’ve been funnier if they connected two cities that hate each other more than just like, dublin and new york, which I can’t really think of as ever having had beef. Maybe NYC and chicago, or something. You can’t really put something like this in texas or LA because nobody fuckin walks anywhere, unless maybe you put it in like long beach or like some random part of Austin or something. Seattle? Does Seattle have beef with anywhere? On the other side, could we connect Dublin with like, London or something? Maybe some city in northern Ireland?
Moscow and DC. What could possibly go wrong.
The thing would be shot down in secs. OH NO COMUNISTS. Ratatata skrskr
Equally likely to be shot down by Russian soldiers for spreading “western lies”
Miami and San Francisco would be excellent
But make both of them out of bulletproof glass
Boobs should never shut anything down. Ever.
"OnlyFans model flashing the so-called portal. Another "very drunk" woman was filmed rubbing her behind against the screen, while a different video shows a man exposing his own derrière.
One person on the Irish side went as far as to show the New Yorkers images of 9/11 on his phone, according to The Guardian."
Yeaaah. Not just boobs
The horror of the human body. Hide it, seal it and be ashamed of it.
Well, the 9/11 wasn’t about the human body. Rubbing ass against the screen is outright unsanitary.
Definitely tasteless. But hardly the worst thing I’ve seen someone post in an online space.
I might argue the root of the problem is anonymity.
Here’s the thing. If people aren’t allowed to have fun with your intercontinental portal, why even have it at all?
