Ok, now let's get serious...
IIE is under the control of someone calling himself "NinebyThree", not only does he show strong evidence of bipolar type episodes (not that there is anything *wrong* with that, per se, but, uncontrolled, as it seems to be, it indicates significant mental instability) he is also cozying up to Ruhama, "Turn Off the Red Light" and every tabloid journalist he can get next to. If Pat did this there would be an outcry...yet for some stupid reason when NineByThree does this ye all hang off his every word.
All involved are eyewitnesses (if not participants) to the spiteful little playground level games that are openly plotted there before being deleted next day. Either you know darn well that is sad, sick and very unhealthy or there really *ARE* a lot more underage sex workers than I thought...mostly in the catty 9 year old range.
Whatever, it is neither very adult, nor ethical...but I bet you all feel REALLY clever all the same (unless you are just relieved to be part of the bullying gang rather than it's designated target?
).
You are wrong, you are *NOT* being clever at all.
Niner and friends are not good people...good people cannot tolerate the kind of abuse that goes on at IIE let alone encourage or even particpate in it...common sense should tell you that.
Existentialism can be a crippling disability, it prevents you from being able to see important truths like the fact that *if* Ruhama and "Turn Off the Red Light" get their chosen legislation through the Dail there will be opportunities for unscrupulous people to make staggering amounts of money out of selling ways to work around it.
Pat and all at E-I know this, but they are decent people, who also care about the ethical considerations here. Not so IIE and friends. That is why they are doing everything in their power to derail the government consultation in favour of Ruhama and "Turn Off the Red Light", while doing everything in their power to discredit E-I.
Same thing happened before the 1993 law. I am just watching history repeat itself, and some, remarkably similar, VERY stupid women jumping on the bandwagon.
Yes, E-I costs money...but so does generating the kind of site traffic that resolves in guaranteed work for *you* as, and when you want it. You can advertise on the boards for free once a week too.
E-I has been around longer than any other business I can think of in the sex industry because of the incredibly high standard of ethics and confidentiality they have set.
It wouldn't cost me a bother to mail Pat my name, address DOB and credit card number...there is more chance my GP would abuse that information...would any of you DARE to do the same with Niner?
Thought not.
Believe me, if Niner (whoever he, or they, really is) gets his way over the law and consultation process, chances are E-I will effectively pull out of Ireland, you will find it is suddenly almost impossible to work here except through him...and trust me...it will *not* still be free then.
Of course a lot of you will be fine, you just won't tour Ireland any more, but what about the ones who are stuck here? At the mercy of the monster *YOU* chose to enable...
Not you problem are they? And besides, it's such FUN having the kind of infinite permission and opportunity to bully and abuse that Niner offers you.
