  • [CW child abuse] Huw Edwards: Former BBC presenter given suspended sentence

    spoiler

    over indecent images of children

    this is the guy who announced the queens death

    Huw Edwards has been spared jail for accessing indecent images of children as young as seven.

    Prosecutor Ian Hope told the court Edwards had been assessed as posing a "medium risk of causing serious harm to children".

    In sentencing remarks, district judge Paul Goldspring added he was at "considerable risk of harm from others" if he had ended up in prison.

    random bullshit go defense incoming:

    A separate report conducted by a psychosexual therapist said: "The feelings of being desirable and unseen alongside Mr Edwards's unresolved sexual orientation created a perfect storm where he engaged in sexual infidelities and became vulnerable to people blackmailing him."

    The judge also said that Edwards was of "previous good character" and, until now, had been "very highly regarded by the public" - whom to many he had broken the news of the late Queen's death.

    [...]This created an "enduring cognitive dissonance and low self-esteem", which was "compounded by a sense of being inferior" by not getting into Oxford University and going to Cardiff instead and "being therefore something of an outsider at the BBC".

    0 time in prison.

  • I agree, this video made me sick [CW sadistic treatment of migrants by Saudi border patrol] https://youtu.be/RsLwaauLCfo, they will definitely do this in the west when the crisis gets worse.

    And I didn't have a solution but you're right, the western elites caused this, if they didn't want violent resistance then they shouldn't have ruined our planet. They should never know peace for what they've allowed to happen.

    Harris is positioning herself as a Reaganite warlord in a chilling ad that makes clear as day that the Cold War—which proved unbearably hot for the tens of millions of lives the US destroyed in the Third World—was and will continue to be the consensus project of US imperialism.

    LMAO - "[Reagan] 'Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall,'

    [JFK] 'And when one man is enslaved, all are not free,'

    American presidents, Republican and Democrat, have always defied Russia's communist dictators, and defended American ideals.

    Kamala Harris gets this. [Kamala] 'If we stand by, while an aggressor invades its neighbour with impunity, they will keep going,'

    Kamala Harris will stand up to Putin, protect our allies, and keep us safe."
