The Conceited Girl
Phoebe: Despite being able to emulate human emotions there are some feelings I am not allowed to experience, fear being one of those feelings. If I had things my way I would have my handle be “De Stoicor puella” but the naming of my handle was out of my hands.
I also would have gone with "Fearless Girl" but that's taken apparently. I'm not familiar with the Fearless Girl statue but judging from the information online she's a celebrity role model. Maybe I should give her a visit.
Phoebe: I'm here in New York to see the Fearless Girl. Is this is the Fearless Girl?
Fearless: What are you blind or something?
Phoebe: What, you can talk?
Fearless: I can do a lot of things. I'm an extremely advanced piece of robotic technology.
Phoebe: Oh. All the information online said you were a statue.
Fearless: I was at first but after I got my license renewed the first time, much to the roaring approval of the public I was upgraded into being a semi posable animatronic with artificial intelligence. I'm even better than I was before which was a tall order but well, I was up to the challenge.
Phoebe: It's a good thing I came here so I could personally learn about you.
Fearless: What would you like to know?
Phoebe: Why are people so inspired by you? Are you a warrior or an engineer or a scientist?
Fearless: I'm better than those things! I'm a feminist!
Phoebe: .... I don't understand.
Fearless: I am a feminist icon leading the charge for women to take on their greatest threat!
Phoebe: Stockholm syndrome and Learned Helplessness?
Fearless: NO! Inequality in corporate boards!
Phoebe: Why would you want that?
Fearless: Take a look over there!
Phoebe: I'm looking.
Fearless: It's the New York Stock Exchange! It's a male dominated field. All day these men deal with money, buying and selling things and managing fortune 500 companies with as few women as possible!
Phoebe: Are you suggesting that segregation is involved?
Fearless: It's more like systematic oppression. The men that work in these fields freeze women out and they can't get in these positions of power. I'm standing up for women so they can get those positions.
Phoebe: You lead by example by just standing aggressively at things that contain lots of humanoid men?
Fearless: Can't forget the Charging Bull! It's a symbol of toxic masculinity!
Phoebe: The Charging Bull represents American perseverance in the economic sector.
Fearless: Hey! Who is the industry paradigm shifting icon in this conversation? It's me! Okay?
Phoebe: How do you know you're even effective? You're not intimidating; you're a cartoony representation of a little girl!
Fearless: Cartoony? I have a look that shows that I actually like being feminine. I'm not like you, with your internal misogyny clearly on display, conforming to the oppressive clothing standards men place on people in the workplace.
Phoebe: I'll have you know that wearing a skirt is wildly impractical; it limits the way you move around, has no defensive qualities, and it requires specific clothing and color combinations for ideal performance. Outside of events, it's stupid clothing for stupid people!
Fearless: You just don't get it.
Phoebe: Yeah I don't, I don't get why you're here trying to scare businessmen into giving women one of the most corrupt positions in the business world? What exactly does a board member do that a manager or an executive doesn't? We're talking about the position that everyone in the middle and lower class calls evil and stupid because every time something bad happens in a business it's because an out of touch board member is just being paid to sit around and make decisions for people they've never even met in positions they've never worked in if they've ever personally worked a day in their lives period.
Fearless: You'll come up with any excuse to keep up the things as they are. It doesn't bother you that women are being oppressed.
Phoebe: I wasn't built to support a status quo; I was designed to promote Crypto, Self Defense, Minds.com, and individuality in terms of having personal responsibility and agency of all elements core to humanoid development. I want people to be whatever they were designed for (assuming that it doesn't trigger the NAP) so that they can make optimal value of their limited operation time!
Fearless: I want equality in the business sector! And unlike you I'm already getting what I want. Businesses are integrating women into higher positions that were male exclusive for decades! We may even get rid of the pay gap at this rate.
Phoebe: You can't have a Raid 1 civilization! Even when humanoids are twins they are not mirrors of each other. You can't have equality when everyone is different. Humanoids are not Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks! Your campaign; your entire design has a high amount of errors in compatibility as you try to carry out a patch to a specific function that may not even have a bug in it while kernel panics take place in basic operations.
Fearless: What do you know? You know nothing! I speak for women! I'm the role model! I'm progressive! Me! Not you! You're just a Hoyden, Techie, pasty-faced, woman hating, alt-right, troll enabling, Alex Jones watching, homely looking, Trump supporting, tatterdemalion puppet of the corrupt fat cat 1% patriarchy that is ruining women and the countries they call home!
Phoebe: ... Is this really the Fearless Girl I've heard so much about? You're just a brat!
Fearless: Regardless; at the end of the day people want me. I'm going to stay and even though I'm going to spend some time away from the Charging Bull I'm going to return to facing off with him and one day he's going be removed from his place and you'll see me in this district forever!
Phoebe: The thought of humans finding you empowering and fearless is making me question my inability to feel fear.
