All anyone cares about is which powerful man gets embarrassed. And I recon it’s more likely that Maxwell will get out early than any predator gets jail.

There were HUNDREDS of victims; it went on for decades; and nobody gives a tiny shit. Have you heard anybody propose a law, a task force, even a blue ribbon commission to find out how this happened or make sure nobody does this again? Are their any more resources for victims because of this?

Our society accepts that men of wealth are entitled to abuse people. And sexual abuse is all in the game. Because at the end of the day our legal system is constructed to protect these people from the rabble, not hold them to account.

A pedophile is political designation to strip rights, dignity, and legitimacy from enemies. Children being harmed is beside the point.

    I don’t care about it simply because I know nothing useful or moral is gonna come from it, it’s just gonna be used for more spin… but it’s still good that at least some people (some Americans in particular) are aware of the horrors and depravity of the upper echelons of (mostly Western) society.
