I’ve got a question. I’m going to take it out of context because I can’t talk about the context on a public forum but would value your thoughts anyway.Is it possible to consent to a humiliating or degrading practice/behaviour or experience if you don’t feel like you have the economic power to reject it?

@BarefootWitch if you "don't feel like you have the economic power" to reject something that's coercion not consent.

@BarefootWitch yeah if you're asking it already sounds like you don't really want too. "degrading" and "humiliating" don't sound great

@classybitch I’m trying to keep things as vague as possible. It’s a sort of established protocol that involves public fining/punishment of individuals for noncompliance/non-completion of established tasks. I think public humiliation is something you can’t consent to if consent is tied to your employment.

@BarefootWitch @classybitch many employers use coercion, it's abuse and should be illegal, you can't consent if it's tied to your employment. This is why I'm in favour of ubi, everyone needs a guaranteed income so they can say no to unethical employers.

@BarefootWitch Would you reject it if money was no object? If yes, then it's not consent.

@You_cat_to_be_kitten_me @Fullycaffeinated oh hell no. I’m currently refusing but I think they think I’m joking. I’m trying to work out how firm a footing I’m on if I continue refusing.

@BarefootWitch @You_cat_to_be_kitten_me @Fullycaffeinated it's never too late and simply having a union rep typically makes them less likely to fuck you over!
