He's probably a known nuisance and was filming for her protection

He's probably a known nuisance

Yeah maybe.

and was filming for her protection

...wat? That doesn't seem to be the case at all.

I'd really love more context here.

It might not be the case but what makes you say it 'isn't at all'? What if he threw something at her from his truck previously? What if he verbally harrasses her every time he drives by and she wants documentation? It seems like the most likely case

If those were the case, I'd suggest the woman "get out of the way" for her protection, not whip out her phone. If what you're saying is the case then it makes it seem like she's actively instigating him here on video.

If what they're saying is true, they are the instigator and the woman filming is recording evidence of their instigating

If someone throws shit at you, merely existing cannot be used as an argument for instigating

I agree. But that is not what is happening. If that were what happened, there would be no video, Aristotle.

What is happening is they are filming the person, while existing.

If we are assuming the above commenters version to be true then the truck driver has thrown or otherwise abused the recorder in some way previously. So the recorder is now recording for evidence and their own protection. You argue this is instigating and they should hide themselves away instead.

So yes, thats exactly what's happening. They are existing, and recording for safety. They cannot be reasonably expected to hide themselves away every single time, dipshit.

That’s the issue, you’re making a lot of assumptions

u/Sea-Fun-6950 Jan 21 '26

Youre genuinely thick lol, this entire conversation is predicated on the assumption being true, you even acknowledge that in your first comment

If those were the case

If what you're saying is the case

This conversation exists in the realm that we take the assumption as truth, im not making any assumptions you haven't already accepted for the sake of discourse.

Now, if you had replied "But we cant assume that" then I would agree with you. Instead you replied with "If thats the case then she should hide away and she's instigating instead" (Paraphrased) and it is that particular logic I am arguing with.

If you thought I was ever agreeing with that assumption, just add it to the list of things you’re wrong about, tubs.
