NDAs and when does the dam break
almost like we need a website to collate the data:
who, number of accusers, confirmed by accused, "everyone knew", defended/attacked by right, by left, "crime"
(aka - asshole, harassment, touching, assault, rape)
no one is victim blaming here ... but ... if this picks up ANY STEAM, we are going to be buried when the dam breaks ..
at what point will .... people start self-reporting, to get ahead of the storm?
Is Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise HOPING that this blows over?
(no really .... )
and .... this woman with the NDA and settlement from weinstein ... who came forward ... is she being sued for breaking her silence? or not ?

get some songs from these lists etc

Looks like you're after a fairly wide selection. I'd find and consider the following tracks, based entirely on my own personal biases. Depends on how eclectic you want it maybe:
I've got the following in my CD collection that I think will be useful:
The Vanishing-Songs for Psychotic Children
The Cure-Pornography, 17 Seconds, Kiss me...
Bauhaus-Crackle and The Sky's Gone Out (plus their vinyl Singles collection)
KMFDM-Adios
Joy Division-Unknown Pleausres and Closer (I'm thinking "She's Lost Control" is a must)
VNV Nation-Empires and Burning Empires
The Sisters of Mercy-Floodland
I know I'm missing some classics from Siouxsie and the Banshees, Christian Death etc. but what songs would particularly add to the above assortment? Anything by the Legendary Pink Dots accessible and dancey enough? I like them and they're prolific, but don't know much of their music. Anything from the above or elsewhere that would be a 'must?

implicit
IN the end .. you ask the silly question (do we need to wear shirts) ... which answers the other questions ..... which are being ignored/not asked/etc
you are out at a dark, dank gay bar - when you walk in, you literally are putting on your "go ahead let's get crazy" shirt ...
which is why this woman, upset about LEWDNESS at an SF gay bar is so absurd .... "hello - you are in a sex friendly environment - for gay men"
on the other extreme you have men and women AT WORK, being sexually assaulted, their jobs threatened, etc ...
those victims went to work with their "we are work, dont grab my crouch" shirts on ... and were assaulted
whether it is assault or not is defined by the implicit shirts that we are wearing and the implicit contract of those locations.

What's the next
Things that we didnt "expect" to see in our lifetime:
A black president
A female president (so damn close)
A Jewish president (lol he still thinks he could have won)
An open trans in federal office
Same sex marriage
Obamacare (wasnt universal health, but infinitely better than the past)
What will the next big thing be?
Universal Health? (Get enough states to pass their own, and ...)
Equal Rights (aka gender and preference protected like religion)
NPV (states can "eliminate" the electoral college) (google it)
Universal, Mandatory, Vote by Mail (no more fucking with the voters) (and screwing with the recounts)
ALL representatives to be AT-LARGE
Increase the number of reps to the proper proportionate number. (4,000 to 12,000 seats)
(Omg - get back to work)
Computers beating humans at chess and go.

Machines
The REALLY FUNNY PART, as someone who has READ about AI (I Robot was the first book that I bought out of my own money) since DAY ONE.
As a scientist who has done some basic research on machine learning/AI/NN/etc/etc/etc, I have been AMUSED at the whole discussion.
FFrom the: machines will NEVER BE ABLE TO DO <THIS>!!
Every time that machines do <THIS>, they move the bar.
FFS: they had to make a NEW TERM, AGI - artificial Generalized Intelligence.
Will a machine ever be exactly the same as a human?? Yawn.
Will machines ever CRUSH us at every thing that we do? Yup.
Chess and go? LOL
Poker? LOL
Visual recognition (started with reading addresses on envelopes, now faces and god knows what else)? Yup
hell look at manual vs automatic transmissions - early days human manual was always better. Now? Didnt Porsche stop making a manual trans???
Music, writing, "art" - "pure creation"
These are all that is really left.
Will we see THEM in our life time? Possibly/probably. (Vinge...)
Will it happen in the next 100 years? I would LONG-BET on that for sure.
OF COURSE, when they day comes, the English lit prof will say "I am an expert, therefore, I define LIT, so this is NOT LIT"
