I guarantee most of these schools protect the bullies and punish the victims. Like if a girl being harassed broke the glasses, she would get expelled. The world is the way it is because people enable and worship bullies across the board.
This. My friend in HS went to guidance multiple times to complain about being bullied by another classmate. After the 2nd or 3rd time requesting thy switch his class, they decided to resolve the issue by forcing them to be partners for an assignment in class. He complained again, and was told to deal with it. One day my friend finally cracked and broke the bully's nose because he had enough and clearly the school was only willing to make this worse, so they called the police on my friend. It's pretty insane how some things get dealt with sometimes.
Countless stories like this :(
I wish they called the police when I stood up for myself. It was sexual harassment/assault but I didn't know that at the time, I just knew I didn't like it so used violence. He stopped and ran off bleeding all over the place.
Totally valid self defence from a legal perspective. But they only used the threat of calling the police and I was absolutely terrified so just shut down.
Schools don't care about bullying or sexual harassment as long as it doesn't look bad on them. If it can be swept under the rug, they will ignore it.
At least that is my experience from schools in the UK.
Same in the US
In a different video, the same boy films another upset girl approaching him with a metal stool in her hands. An adult intervenes before anyone is hurt.
Exactly, they always protect the bullies.
Humans suck at looking at things on a long timeline. "Sticks and stones". You don't usually see the effects of years of bullying until adulthood. Or at least not immediately. A TBI, that'll get you fucking sued. Emotional trauma? What's that?
Fuck they still try to blame school shootings on videogames and now tiktok.
From the opening part of the article, the problem is not just the glasses. The glasses are definitely an issue that needs to be sorted out society wide, but there is a problem with how these boys are raised. Badly raised boys have always been an issue but now they are being raised by manosphere incel influencers. The glasses just let them record their harassment to post for clout and to draw others into their bullying.
By there not being enough consequences for these boys, not only are you making more boys like this, but not doing those boys any favours either. No one mentally healthy is going to want to be with that kind of boy.
Weak parents. Weak schools. Weak government. Failing everyone.
I blame the parents
Yeah who the hell is buying creeper glasses for kids to wear at schools. This is messed up.
Can someone explain why this isn't actually a solution to an old problem? We used to have issues with various forms of harassment that were not addressed because they relied on unreliable testimony. Now we actually have people creating hard evidence of their actions.
The behaviors described in this article are banned in every school I or my children have ever attended. How difficult would it be for the parents of any of these victims to hire a lawyer to absolutely wipe the floor with these people? Don't these videos basically put the perpetrators heads on silver platters?
Crime usually comes before punishment. Right now the system is working it's way into figuring out how to deal with this new social dynamic. Like you, I think it's pretty straightforward. We won't solve the core reason for the bullying dynamics though. I think humans that adhere to gendered thinking will be behind on that for a good long while yet.
"Hey everyone, this asshole is wearing smart glasses and recording us all. Question is: are they going to remove them right now, or are we?"

It's ok, their parents will take care of the situation.
Ah-hahaha, what a joke.
Why is the minimum age not 18?
Creeps exist above 18 years old too...
Yes but starting with an age limitation is a start on these damn things.
@madeindex I'm shocked that someone who made his fortune scaling up a website he made to rate the looks of female students at Harvard could come up with something creepers would use to harass women and girls.
Maybe we can get our hands on some of those Volvo lidar modules to combat all these cameras around us? "Your assumed right to record me doesn't overrule my right to make high resolution 3D scans of everywhere I go."
Yeah no shit letting people go around with concealed recording equipment is resulting in problems. Especially in a fucking school!
So the same bullying that always happens is now visible and that's the core problem people see. The glasses, not the bullies wearing them or the bullying recorded. Watch teachers and schools fight the recording, that make evidence fall right into their laps, so they can go back to ignoring bullying in their schools and then act shocked when serious fights, or worse happen.
Actually a good point, the bullying and sexual harassment was always there with or without the glasses.
The glasses give them a new option for harassment, but it happens either way.
these boys need their mother's to whoop their asses and their dads to whip them into shape.
"oh boys will be boys"
no. boys will be whatever you let them be, and if you let them be perverted pieces of shit they grow up to be perverted pieces of shit.
just grab a pair of cheap Clark Kents. girls will avoid you.

use a james bond pen if you only want pictures.

Sit them in a dunce corner full of mirrors until the battery runs out.
If I saw them I would call the police. Especially if there are kids around. No 4th amendment here and no local police departments that can easily be bought off. The police might not find something incriminating every time.
