I will be continuing writing Grand Tapestry of Moments 03 after I finish this post, but I thought in light of recent events that seem to have targeted my life, that I should take some time and speak about this in a reasonable manner and deal with the real issues involved when abusive collectives weaponize breaches of others' privacy.
Public Image: The One We Create vs The One Perceived vs The One Others Create vs The Mirage Of Their Combination
As content creators, assuming that at least some if not most of my audience are in some way contributing to the world in such a way, the older that we get, the more that we tend to through our online presence, attempt to craft an illusory impression about our being, and one that is most often very flattering in the name of preserving our interests, both present and future, and creating a zone of safety that limits the kind of information we share about ourselves personally, where the context of our content is somehow separate from us and our private lives. For instance, you'd probably never hear about the most intimate and private details of other content creators mixed in with their content in a way that is directly associated with their lives.
Its never good practice to mix such private elements of one's life with their regular content, especially when it comes to younger content creators (in their early twenties and onwards as they develop their personal brand), and especially in the case of women. There's a privacy boundary about oneself that everyone should be careful of crossing, because some people who partake of your content might misinterpret expositions of your most private or intimate moments as personal invitations into your life. I'm not talking about the vast majority of people who can make the distinction between their own lives, and the lives of others whose content they enjoy, recognizing the boundaries between the content creator and the audience and why there are limits in that regard.
I think that the important aspects that need to be addressed come in a variety of different forms.
The foremost are about protecting the people in your life and circle, whether you still have communication with them or not, because privacy over the last thirty years has become the number one targeted commodity in a person's life since the widespread popularity of the world wide web, and mobile communications. The more popular a content creator is, the more valuable that commodity becomes both to the content creator themselves, and to those seeking to breach it.
There are people in this world who become obsessed with those who create their personal content brand online or on television or the film industry and even in video games, seeing the visage that such a person creates as largely being a lie. These are often people who for one reason or another, hold grudges, or who've had such grudges artificially amplified by social engineering groups (often criminal gangs) so as to create conflict between people and keep people divided, by employing the most personal and private moments of a person or group of people in order to do so.
Modern Scandals And The Public Impression of Sex Trafficking
I am certainly not speaking in protection of any sex trafficking networks that do and have exploited the vulnerable for a variety of motivations that often have the dual role of weaponizing intimate moments of privacy for profit in some form. A weapon that is most often paid for at the cost of the health and the life of the exploited, and seeking to damage someone who has access to resources that imbue them with powers that possibly or could be misused unfairly in social competition, business or other venues of life, such as someone in such a position systematically seeking the sexual gratification of a minor. A situation that evokes extreme public hostility (rightfully so) though it is important to remember that the kind of people who cultivate these kinds of weapons against those in the public eye, are very much aware of that, and most often, on the basis of political and ideological (religious) motivations, seek such weapons to advance their interests with such regards.
In such a case, we have sexual predators who systematically and secretly attempt to use their resources to acquire sexual favours from minors. Some such activity is organized through complex networks which are ever increasingly becoming entrenched in devastatingly hidden ways in the midst of even low income communities, never mind the lives of the wealthy and the quickly evolving wytch hunt seeking to label anyone with money or influence (and most often both) as being a sexual predator, because that label evokes such hostility against those labeled as such, that it is in fact the most potent weapon of all, and this is certainly a fact well understood and known by those wielding it that way, in the absence of protecting the interests of the exploited, and the public safety. The one wielding such a weapon can very quickly become the one wielding the power they implored was abused by those they're wielding it against. Not always, but most often, it becomes a case of the one who hunts monsters, becoming the monster, as Niechtze once put it.
The Overlap of MMIWG2S+
Recently, in Canadian history, investigators became aware of the horrifying fact that many vulnerable Indigenous women had gone missing, or whose remains had been discovered through forensic sciences, leading to the investigation of Missing or Murdered Indigenous Women MMIW (MMIWG2S+). These cases pose a very complex challenge for investigators despite the fact that demographically speaking, the data comes together to reveal the emergent properties of a social phenomenon that most likely arises from sex trafficking and the privacy issues connected to the customers and the sex workers, especially where such sexual activity involves extremes such as violence or harm, though the privacy issues aren't limited to those aspects. Considering that customers who sought such services might also have found aspects of their private lives seemingly in the hands of the sex workers who provided their services, and in the event that these people wrongly wielded the power to protect the interests of their privacy, that might go a long way to explaining many of these cases of MMIWG2S+ where it involves sex workers.
In other words, the privacy issues become a tool of power against those whose secrets are involved, and often, underground and black market businesses whose market segments overlap (sex workers having substance dependencies for instance put them in frequent contact with those dealing such substances and possibly managing sex workers as well). The overlap creates pockets of privacy based power, that could and possibly has been wielded by these overlapping market segments of the black market economy.
If it becomes known amongst those paying sex workers with the substances upon which they're dependent, that one of their customers is the close relative of a Member of Council, those dealers are suddenly in possession of privacy related information that could be used to corrupt policy and in doing so, create a paranoia between these privacy compromised people on one side of society, versus those violating that privacy and employing it as a form of power on the other side of society, with the sex workers themselves caught in the middle, many of whom at one point in time were frequently in low income areas, discarded Indigenous women.
When the paranoia level between the two sides becomes dangerously disruptive to the structures of power in society, and threatens to pit the public against the hidden powers (such as traditional organized crime, outlaw motorcycle gangs and street gangs), those powers in not having a complete understanding of how they're all being played, might seek to solve the issues by way of silencing the sex workers, whom most of these overlapping segments of the black market would have blamed for the breaches, when in fact I'd bet that it was the result of those trafficking them and providing them with the substances which they depended upon, though those responsible would never admit to it, and would do everything possible to keep that presumption well away from their responsibility. The evidence of this exists more strongly than ever today, as such groups have social gangs that actively seek to transfer and radicalize others with regard to such. As if groups of harassment gangs are seeking to dump their garbage elsewhere to keep it away from the very people who are and have been the problem. The ones using the local dealing of substances as a means to maintain a grip over the communities they inhabit, including as part of the barter system and payment means for many sex workers on the lower end of the scale and as a means to ensure that the secrecy and disposal of information about such activities is directed outward and away from those responsible, and into the laps of those who could be used as viable substitutes for those criminally responsible.
Indigenous women from the 1980s and onward most certainly made up a large part of this group, and I'd certainly given this understanding and the evidence, assume that privacy breaches, that were wielded by local gangs who eventually became organized via internet and mobile technology, against other segments of society, both the black market and legal segments, that initially created the paranoia that led to the first one or two waves of the systematic murder and disposal of these women as a means to shore up the perceived leak of incriminating information. However, decades later, it becomes very evident that those women, and other sex workers were never the leak at all. They were simply caught in the middle, and played by people trafficking them, who likely harvested and wielded the secrets in an attempt to manipulate and corrupt established political power.
First on the scale of local politics (family members or friends of Council members who partook of the services of sex workers), and then likely expanded their reach to target all members of the community, by which time such gangs had adapted their knowledge to employ modern computer hacking, WIFI eavesdropping and Software Defined Radio eavesdropping amongst other methods, wielding public secrets as a collective and using them to pressure or control members of the community who stood against their black market activities. This is something that still goes on today, and given the fact of how these people are wielding the secrets they gather, I'd be willing to bet that their predecessors were the very ones who manipulated the paranoia that led to the MMIWG2S+ tragedy. A paranoia that likely led to the first two waves of murders that resulted from these power structures trying to shore up their perceived leaks, while those who farmed the paranoia secretly got away with it and advanced their methods and furthered their effectiveness in doing it, right until this very day.
A Ground Level View Of "Possible" Community Based Sex Trafficking Networks
This same network are likely part of a firewall that protects community based sex trafficking by and large, especially that exploiting minors or unwilling sex workers, though I am not speaking about the kind that occurs through personal ads in the city weeklies, and those that are discretely employed by responsible professionals who recognize that a healthy sex life and a respect for the safety of sex workers is an important part of life's many journeys. It isn't something which I'd personally take part in myself, but it is something that I see as worthy of respect of protection, especially given the fact that sex work isn't always about servicing those with a predatory appetite for exploitation or harmful behaviours towards others. Some customers I'd imagine are those who might not be able to service themselves. Perhaps the absence of arms, or other aspects of their being that act to impair or deny them of one of life's greatest joys. What kind of a monster would deny such a person of that experience? Kind of like people who are not far from the being the kind of monsters who'd employ the secrets of others to create division and paranoia that led to the murder of generations of vulnerable sex workers, the vast majority of whom were women.
From my perspective, I see evidence that a very secretive network has developed over the last decade and a half since the Toronto Vice Squad operation against Gangs and Guns, and Sex Trafficking in the city came to a close (2007). The overt presence of the gangs have transformed to one of a more docile and politically manipulative kind, that replaces their former roots in violence with the manipulation of public impression against their enemies, and possibly against investigators, protecting a secret network whose operational nodes are made up of residential buildings (most often low income), with groups of apartments there within making up the node's operational structure, and employing modern technology, and civic technology as both forms of intelligence gathering, and information dispersion throughout the community to other nodes. Their information gathering abilities are quite advanced, and even combine modern social engineering techniques to achieve local breaches, and to extract information from both systems, and from people.
These tactics make up the barrier between their activities, and those who pose a threat to them. Within their operational structure, especially the places where customers might attend to receive services, are more often than not, equipped with extensive hidden camera networks, most of which are operated and monitored collectively by entire segments of the community, especially those seeking to break the illusions of any residents of the community about whom the impression of their association with investigative bodies acts to stifle or interfere with the regular operations of their black market businesses. Obviously, if a person is caught on camera involved in services provided by a sex worker, that video can be quickly circulated throughout a community to assure local black market dealers that its safe to continue business even when that person is around. So these networks are designed to destroy any illusions that might interfere with their regular business activities, in the absence of a visible Police or security presence, though another practice by these groups seems to be all about training and taming both Police and security to their agenda, rather than to the agenda of civic and criminal law. Both Police and security are targets of secrecy violations, which are then used to pressure or control them.
There is evidence to suggest that these pressure tactics are also used to farm youthful sex workers, and to seek customers for such workers. It is almost a form of social conditioning, by the group collectives that operate in this manner and I've seen evidence that young women are targeted by this activity as well, and have heard mention on several occasions of implied offers of women based upon age, though the term age was never used in order to further keep the activity concealed, the youngest of which I've heard was thirteen.
In having actively confronted and spoken out several times against the collective nature of the people protecting this aspect, I've often encountered women in the street, whom I walked passed who in having heard about my standing against this activity, said thank you to me, without my even knowing them personally. Basically, they were confirming that what I suspect given the hidden evidence, seem to be very effectively going on, and they're very frightened if not terrified to talk about it with anyone. Over the last three years (since 2023), I've received these responses from possibly more than twenty or thirty women who greeted me upon passing them on the street. In other words, these are women, some of them young, who were afraid to say anything to anyone else for fear of becoming targeted, or who are actively being farmed towards such ends. It is difficult to say. I think its frightening to know that so many are trapped in such a social dynamic that could eventually break them down to exploit them and if this is going on with very young women, then that is a problem that should receive attention immediately.
This trafficking seems to entirely be hidden inside, and likely this this transformation of their methods from the time of 2007, they've gone from being visible, to operating discretely inside of residential buildings throughout the city, who as I stated, each have their own operational node there within that is the firewall against investigation and exposure.
The Importance of This Information In The Age of Social Media, Content Creators and Influencers
Our boundaries are constantly under attack, and more and more this creates the pressure that we should lighten up, and be more trusting with aspects of our private lives. However, I'd warn against this though certainly also advise against going the opposite extreme. Finding a balance is important, but remembering who gets access to what information about you you're willing to share is one of the most vital decisions that a person needs to consider as they grow into this new platform of global awareness.
These collectives I've been speaking about, are very effective shapers and manipulators of human behaviour, especially amongst those they target, for to them it is akin to being like a competitive sport. Keep in mind that many of the people who are subject to this complex activity, are consumers of social media, content and the output of influencers and many of them are a part of this loneliness epidemic that can and is being used to manipulate them towards the ends of delusional thinking with regard to their favourite content producers and influencers.
As we experience this loneliness and sense of isolation, more and more of us buy into the illusion that our favourite content creators are speaking directly to us, rather than the whole of their audience, and the collectives that manipulate the behaviours of their targets, often attempt to farm this aspect of the relationship between a content creator and their audience members, to the degree that they're cultivating dangerous delusions that potentially could lead to obsessive behaviours with regard to the content creators, who most of the time aren't vastly wealthy business moguls seated atop of an organizational brand they developed. Many of them that are growing their first few years of their brand impression are struggling themselves to survive, and don't have a layer of security or even an experience of awareness that when you have a large audience of people, there can be lost and lonely people in that midst, who can and often will be via the manipulation of collectives for whom such manipulations are nothing more than a sport and a cruel joke, try to create a stalker, convincing that person that the content creator they're obsessed with is trying to send them secret love messages, intended only for them, imploring them to get up and get on a plane or train or taxi and come to them directly so they can discuss it in person with each other. This is another form of exploitation and of the vulnerable, though in this case, its both the stalker being farmed, and the content creator who are being played into a situation that could potentially develop into dangerous extremes.
This is where knowing your boundaries as a content creator comes in. Nobody else is privy to the private aspects of your life, and we all have them, and in crafting your brand appearance, which is another illusion you feed to people about the content creator you're trying to appear as, rather than the person you actually are. Its not disingenuous at all, its a safety barrier between the people who use your content, and yourself, that puts limits upon how close you allow them to get to actually knowing you.
When you share details that go over a certain boundary, to some of these lonely people, who are most certainly being farmed by collectives trying to game them as stalkers against you or other content creators, they might see that as their advancing in their closeness to you, and might even use that as a justification to get closer to you, once again, the possibility that they're being manipulated by collectives for whom that sort of thing is a social game and a joke to them, unaware of ignorant (more likely) of the harm they might be causing and the risk they're putting you and your potential stalker in.
Considering that many content creators and stars of social media are ever getting younger and younger, I can't help but think that we need to be very careful about this and more importantly so, to be aware of it so we can put on the brakes, and take this on with a better approach, erring on the side of caution. This is most important for young content creators, social media moguls and influencers because you don't have the infrastructure and life experience yet to know that you need to protect yourself and your circle, until you're old enough and have enough experience to know and take responsibility for these aspects yourself. The more popular and larger your audience is, the greater that pressure and responsibility will be and if that outpaces the financial return you get for cultivating those aspects of your online presence, that could be a potential danger. For the most popular and successful influencers, security should always be a priority at the top of the list, and not because your audience isn't worthy of trust. Because you need to protect the boundaries you setup from the beginning and to lay down those boundaries in order to assure other content creators a good example of such practices.
The Older You Get, The Easier It Gets To Speak About Violations Of Your Secrecy and Privacy
I've since I began this journey of developing my content and brand, and from long before, had a private life (and still do to a certain degree). We all do and the best thing that you can do is remember that, and to accept yourself for who you are and what drives you, given your specific situation in life, though being aware of a healthy balance and unhealthy behaviours is certainly something you should examine in self development, but eventually, especially with the collectives I've been speaking about today, you're eventually going to hit a point where your privacy is destructively violated by people for whom such an activity is just a sport and a joke, much like the collectives who practice cultivating obsessed fans and stalkers.
The more popular that you are, the more that your secrets and privacy can become a potential point of power against you, hence as your audience grows, so will the attempts to violate your privacy, especially exposing and sharing aspects of your life where your secrets seem to contradict some aspect of the personal brand you've developed with regard to the illusion of your public impression.
Written Women From A Man's Perspective
I write a lot about women, and write a lot of women characters. I've always been fascinated by, and sometimes obsessed with, in terms of their presence, physicality, their persona and being and their vast potential in every possible extreme and everything in between. So vastly different from the experience of being a man, that when writing women characters, you eventually come to realize that the more attention you invest in understanding their perspective, the closer you get to them, though when you're not the same sex as the characters you write, that can also prove to be a point of contention, and for some an issue of authenticity, though some of my favourite male characters were written by women.
Given the fact that I've given writing believable women characters so much effort and detail insofar as my empathic understanding of them goes, it does and would seem a contradiction that I am a sexual person, and very much so with my regard for women, physically and intellectually.
Distinguishing Between Truth And Misinformation
Obviously, if there are aspects to my life that are of a sexual nature, and seeing as being older and somewhat more reclusive, I tend to take care of matters of my sexuality myself, with the enjoyment of erotic content rather than shopping for an instant fantasy partner on YouTube for instance, something I won't and don't do. A fact about which I am neither ashamed nor shy, and this is precisely the aspect about my privacy may have been breached.
Before I go any further, and without giving specific details, I will let you know that I've been in a few committed romantic relationships in my life, and that given the nature of abusive collectives, they've actively stalked my past girlfriends, and at times still do so I've received intelligence through my own network with regard to their being and safety. They know me better than anyone with regard to those private aspects and would likely vouch for me, though I'm certainly not seeking that.
I'm just explaining that the reasons for my being single have nothing to do with my worthiness and eligibility. I've always been a very affectionate kind of person, and a good partner when and where I needed to be, and never sexually exploitive or abusive with regard to the women I've loved (and the women I didn't). I think that if I weren't single, that the abusive collective would likely make life very difficult for that woman, enough so that it would prove to be a risk to her physical and mental health. I can't say that I'm an incel or anything of that nature (I've had opportunities that I've turned down), but I can say that my own love interest is a woman (and not a man or transgender with all due respect to members of the LGBTQ2 community) and that if I could be with her, I would. Sometimes, abusive cults and groups can get between two people, and somehow never be held legally accountable in the face of such crime.
There have been attempts to paint me as a person who is a womanizer, despite the fact that I've only ever asked a woman out twice in my life, with every other relationship having begun because they expressed their interest in me, because I've been hopelessly shy for most of my life. Not lacking confidence, but rather, just fearful of having a woman regard my interest in her as being strictly platonic, which has never been the case at all, though twice in my life I've been in horrible and short relationships that I accepted for reasons of sympathy or outright having been deceived rather than actual interest, and in doing so instantly regretted them, and still do until this day.
Sexuality and extremes always seem to play into the false impressions about a person that groups that violate a person's privacy seem to target, though I can honestly say that I've never been a fan of or obsessed with receiving fellatio, and have certainly never given it, though I have gone to great lengths to make intimate moments as enjoyable as possible for the women I've loved, and I've had a few women remark that they'd have preferred it if I was more aggressive or forceful, though I certainly would find that to be difficult. I enjoy the creative enthusiasm of Southeast Asian erotic content, but I also know my own limits and what I'd feel comfortable with. Violence against women in any form has never done it for me.
Roleplay is and can be fun, and I love how it plays out in a lot of Southeast Asian and European erotic content, but not in real life with strangers who just vote themselves into your life and privacy, perhaps trying to create an orgy through the walls. WTF is that?!!! Certainly, the privacy between couples is under attack the most aggressively that it ever has been and by abusive ideologies that have no place receiving protection in society, given the fact that they violate every aspect of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Human Rights Act and the Privacy Act of Canada.
I don't use narcotics or smoke, though many of the most intimate nights I've ever had often started with a bottle of wine or a few drinks, though far from being part of every such experience. There's something about modest quantities of good food, good wine (or whiskey) and good music that really sets the mood, though despite my being a sucker for quiet intimacy, I've got a healthy taste for light kink as well.
I'm not "Heb", which most people should already know about me. I've never been a sex offender or predatory towards women of any age, and despite the fact that I can appreciate attractive women in their mid twenties and thirties, I tend to find myself drawn to women forty and up, especially given my age. Especially European or Southeast Asian women as I've stated, though this isn't an attempt to advertise or place a personal ad on my website. Its an attempt to deal with misinformation that might have had a negative impact recently with regard to my sincerity as a writer. One thing that I can proudly say is that I've never violated "no means no". Ever. I'm certain that if a woman ever wanted for the sake of play for "no to mean yes", that she'd creatively choose a very different way to express it, rather than to put at risk the word guarding a woman's right to have the final say over what happens and what doesn't with her own body
So, if any information has surfaced that contradicts anything I've stated here about my real nature, I'd take it with a grain of salt as its very obviously bullshit, and that is definitely something with which the market is currently flooded.
I'm old enough now that I don't mind people knowing a bit more about me than I'd suggest that younger content creators do not divulge about themselves. I can protect myself and deal with just about any situation fine, preferring peace over war any day of the week, but I'll definitely stand my ground when and where I need to but I guess my entire point is that we shouldn't have to, but it helps to know how to.
By the time you get old enough to appreciate these facts, most of what you were protecting on the way to your later years will become a currency you might use to show your trust to others, but not before you've gone the distance and protected it all over the years on your journey as a social media mogul, content creator or influencer.
Alright, I've ranted enough that I need to take a break, and then get back to writing Grand Tapestry of Moments 03 - The Interview.
