You mean the guy who was gonna expose the “deep state”? Gosh…

What the fuck am I reading? That last one, wtf. Please tell me that's just some AI slop, and not actually from the files....

[-] logi@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

But it's not given that it's true either.

Although with a large enough mountain of allegations, you'll be excused to expect that some of them are true. And one, obviously, is too many.

[-] RestrictedAccount@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

I’m not being nihilistic. I just want the kill shot to stick.

We need to make sure that Trump isn’t sending out fabrications to discredit the whole thing.

They are just sending these things around via email? Without encryption and everything?

[-] Natanael@infosec.pub 8 points 3 weeks ago

Yes.

Meanwhile intelligence agencies says they want to stop encryption to help them investigate crime...

we need patriarchy fuelled capitalism to end so bad. this is a world of violence and cruel power games, with its main victims being the poor and homeless, children, women and all workers. we need to dismantle this shit.

I hope to see more awareness of this in the close future.

[-] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 weeks ago

Capitalism, just capitalism to end.

So where are all the pizzagate people nowadays? Why didn't they storm the white house yet?

[-] 3abas@lemmy.world 25 points 3 weeks ago

Where are all the people saying "release the files"? Are they gonna shift the goal post now and call everything that happens a distraction from further releasing more files? When the US starts a major conflict with Iran tomorrow, are the comments gonna be memes about the Epstein files?

When will they recognize Trump can rape a child live on tv and his base will defend it? What are they waiting for? Why are they not revolting yet?

Those fucking clowns all thought they were privy to legitimate "intel" dossiers. They don't care about news or critical thinking, they're gonna need their commands in short-form reel-loop format just like their grifter führer.

Why would the legal system built for the ultra wealthy, by the ultra wealthy come down on Trump?

Frankly this is proof you cannot use their legal system to bring them down. If we want Justice then it's going to need to be Mob Justice or some other form of Justice that exists outside of their legal system.

[-] ChakraNorris@lemmy.world 32 points 3 weeks ago

The French had some good ideas for that, back in the day.

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

No, they didn't. The French Revolution was a cluster fuck and ultimately failed miserably.

[-] seejur@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago

Considering most monarchies are no more in Europe, it didn't really fail miserably

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Do you have any grasp of history?

It resulted in a dictatorship and then a return of the monarchy.

It DID NOT magically remove all monarchies in Europe, that is a ridiculous ahistorical claim. It didn't even ultimately remove the monarchy in fucking France.

This the same woman who withdrew after multiple death threats in 2016?

[-] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

I'm really curious about this too.

[-] Earthman_Jim@lemmy.zip 40 points 3 weeks ago

We really need to be asking why there were never investigations. How does protection from the FBI work exactly, and how do we stop it from protecting monsters currently?

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Be rich.
Be white.
Be connected.
Don't be a threat to anyone else on the list.

[-] Natanael@infosec.pub 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Lobbyists selected by rich people tell politicians who to appoint to lead agencies. These people give directives and can get agents fired for disobeying.

Stopping it means removing "single points of failures" like not having such a powerful hierarchy, in addition to accountability measures (independent inspections, etc)

That makes him a HEBOPHILE and NOT a PEDOPHILE dumb Libtards!

-People who call Queers Pedophiles!

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Well, actually, about that.
According to DSM-5, which is basically the thing for diagnostic criteria in the US:

Pedophilic disorder


302.2 (F65.4)


  • A. Over a period of at least 6 months, recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors involving sexual activity with a prepubescent child or children (generally age 13 years or younger).
  • B. The individual has acted on these sexual urges, or the sexual urges or fantasies cause marked distress or interpersonal difficulty.
  • C. The individual is at least age 16 years and at least 5 years older than the child or children in Criterion A.

Note: Do not include an individual in late adolescence involved in an ongoing sexual relationship with a 12- or 13-year-old.

Specify whether:

  • Exclusive type (attracted only to children)
  • Nonexclusive type

Specify if:

  • Sexually attracted to males
  • Sexually attracted to females
  • Sexually attracted to both

Specify if:

  • Limited to incest

So it does generally include 13.

Edit: Improved formatting (trying to copy the book).

I really hope the tent peg claim from Sascha Riley is real

[-] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 4 points 3 weeks ago

Does anyone else get that vibe where this is the one fake one where he can prove its fake, and there's multiple others where it's true and he can't?
