The Social Experiment

[jhnkvn]

Greetings people of Tsikot,

Recently I've noticed a fairly hot thread sa Facebook feed ko. Now the point of this thread is for you to judge who is correct in your opinion and why.

The scenario is this: A & B is fighting with C. This is A's post shared among friend wherein C is an acquaintance of A (alam mo naman, yun mga accept because of many mutual friends). A is working on the project car of B when a cat starts.. well.. destroying his work. We as forumers in an automotive section knows of this feeling and rants about it in his feed. C, being an advocate, notices the disturbing discussion and joins the fray. This then escalates into a heated argument wherein no side is backing down.

Question is: Who is right and who is wrong? Why.



To be more independent, I have accordingly blacked out their names and their genders (although it's pretty easy to see which if you follow usual stereotyping). Actually this actually leans on one side because I'm posting it in an "automotive" section but.. heck.. let's see.

I deem this a social experiment is because I believe I am being biased. Because both parties are within my circle of acquaintances and friends, I will have a tendency to favor one party over the others. And the only time I will know that I am actually biased is when somebody objectively points it out to me outside my circle (you peeps).

P.S. Being bias is bad for me. This means I'm losing my touch as a neutral and objective moderator (in other forums)

I believe that C is right here as A and B made a bad joke. Well, to be frank both parties are wrong. C took the situation too seriously and out of context. A and B, however, lost their temper. The moment B labeled C as a "hypocrite", he lost.

There's also the right of C to comment. Because kahit ano gawin mo, A's privacy settings was set wrongly.

well, right and wrong in my opinion.

politically correct yung c because it's an outburst. it's also a joke intended for all the car owners victimized by cats. I mean it's a bad joke, yes but taking it to far with a sign of threat that there is paws without actual proof (this aggravated the situation).

Mali is a and b for making a bad joke. Mali is c because he/she is taking it too far.

The moment that A and B told it was a joke and since its in an open wall then C should just back down

Too onion skinned si C... for A and B kulang pa yung plan nila kung talagang serious kasi you can't catch a cat outright with just your bare hands lalo na kung hindi sa iyo

A and B were just being sarcastic and you can sense it on the first few paragraphs... Baka na lost in translation lang si C

In the world of social media, no one is wrong ............ and no one is right either

[K.I.L.L.]

Social media is a dangerous medium and we all have to be careful with what we type and allow the world to read and judge us by.

A & B are wrong as they made their private joke public allowing others such as C to criticise them. I am sure we all know that harming an animal is criminal and I believe it carries a jail term between 6 months to 2 years according to RA8485.

C who is trying to prove a point and show everyone following the joke that harming an animal is wrong just took things too seriously and is very aggressive in the way he inserted himself into the private joke. He should have posted in a more diplomatic manner.

At the end of the day, they all made a mistake and all should apologise to each other.

Nagoverreact lang IMO yun C. First few posts naman alam mong hinde seryoso yun si A and B eh

I don't know why but I suddenly have a craving for siopao. Saan ba masarap ang siopao?







It was just a bad joke (in the way it was delivered mostly) so people who don't know the poster, who can't relate, and are whacked out might get it wrong. If C is not really a friend, masyado siyang epal.

idagdag mo pa sa joke "how to test a siomeow"... magbigay ka ng konti sa pusa ng kinakain mo... kapag kinain ng pusa, legit na siopao yan... kapag inayawan, alam mo na na siomeow yan :grin2:

It's a joke, but it won't be obvious to everyone. The thing is, it's a public posting on Facebook that everyone can see. If you joke about bitch-slapping someone or shooting someone you don't like in private, that's understood as a joke by those familiar with the situation. If you do it in public, that can be counted as a grave threat.

C over-reacted, but has a point. If you want to make crude jokes, change the privacy settings on the post. There are children and animal rights activists everywhere on Facebook... COPPA (13 yr old below restriction for personal data gathering on US websites) be damned... this ain't the USA.

EPAL si C, putangina...papasikat lang...

ano bang pakialaman niya kung gusto pataying ni A yun pusa...gago siya. huwag siya makialam sa buhay ng ibang tao.

I don't know how FB works since I dont have an account, pero EPAL talaga si C.

OT:

Um, di ba malas pag pumatay ng pusa? 9 years daw bad luck?

BTT:

Social Media ....... very complicated .. hehehe.

Eng Bee Tin at Kowloon is okay for us. Dimsum break, cheaper pero ayaw ni misis.

hinde totoo yan, kaya nabalitaan na ginagawang pusa ang siopao dahil laging maraming pusa sa mga likod ng mga chinese resto dati...siyempre andoon yun mga kalat na pagkain/basura...

kahit sa US ganun din ang tsismin yun kung pao chicken is pussy cat daw ganyan din ang explanation...

saka mas mahirap pa humuli ng pusa para gawin siopao kesa pork plus extender...

*jodski, mahilig pa naman kami sa siopao at siomai although we only eat at Eng Bee Tin and Goldilocks for both. Hopefully, we're not being served with siomeow! hahaha
