There is no ethical consumption of her media. People may argue that you could pirate. Yes, you won't be contributing directly to her funds, but you're still giving her the clout.

Making fun of a stranger's appearance by taking a photo of them without their consent is fucking shitty.

    Making fun of a strangers appearance while lecturing people on ethics. Ironic.

    Neither you or the people upvoting your comment know what irony means.

    Edit: I misinterpreted the comment I was responding to. They were referring to OP talking about the ethics of reading Harry Potter while bullying a stranger. That is absolutely ironic.

    Hmm. If your intention is not to mock someone - not trying to hurt their feelings, I don't see a problem with that.

    Humour is a challenging skill. There's always someone who gets offended, even with the smallest hint that may or many not be there.

    Yes but this doesn't mean make taking stealth pictures of strangers and posting them on the Internet cool. Maybe the person being taken a picture of just doesnt like being taken pictures of. I feel like the userbase of lemmy should understand this.
