Rich and powerful men don’t think they’re ever going to get caught or be held accountable for bad acts. If it happens, they figure they can buy their way out of trouble. So far, they’ve been right. It’s time we changed that.

If all these rich men "regret" their time with Epstein then why didn't they announce prior to the release of the files that their names would be part of the collection? Why didn't they self-report? The answer is they are not sorry and have no regret. They are sorry and regret they got caught.

The only people left standing in the National Party Retail Advisory Crime Committee is Kaushal & a buddy.

The others, representing ~80% of retail crime victims, left after citing 'serious' issues with Kaushal

Most of his recommendations which Nat took have been called dangerous #nzpol

Anxious kid on the bus had a snapper that wasn't working. I helped him out the best I could, and this nice lady gave him $20 to buy a new card.

It's good to know there's still decent people in the world.

Excellent article from Andrea Vance today - few quotes

"There is a weak argument (usually put forward by white men, those least likely to suffer abuse online) that staying on X somehow moderates the awful. You can’t dilute a cesspool."

OPINION: Why is a social network under criminal investigation for child sex abuse material treated as a legitimate podium for government messaging?

Sha really is a heroic figure
Reading the horrors of the Epstein Files & witnessing the deafening silence of the press & politicians, we realise the immense courage of Francesca. She stands alone against the same deep-seated power structures revealed in those documents-the very same circles that launched a crusade against her,

Fascism is fundamentally based on disregard for bodily autonomy and consent, which is why fascism is so hospitable to pedophiles, rapists, and transphobes.

This is excellent & draws out something the rest of the media is ignoring: among other things, the Epstein files have made it super, super clear that the entire "anti-woke" cultural hysteria was engineered by powerful men averse to accountability.

He then complains about having to make up the work he missed due to 3 days' planned leave, which I would suggest is a problem with his employer, not the jury service system.

This chap is upset because he didn't get selected for a jury when he was so excited about doing jury service that booked annual leave (presumably paid) and actively avoided being excused due to work commitments (despite being VERY aware of this option).

The men who won’t grow up. One of the most boorish, uncivil man in politics can’t bear it when he even thinks he’s getting challenged. He’s as squeamish as Seymour about criticism, they dish it but can’t take it and may even make stuff up so they can play victim. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
