No.
Absolutely not.
This is an idiotic comparison.
Non-consensual sexualised images of women and children are created by adults, for adults.
Children being absent does sweet blue fuckall to prevent it.
This is a platform accountability problem, not a “kids shouldn’t be here” one.

The hearts and minds of the people are on our side. We will do everything we can to seek justice.
We will fight with peaceful expression, in court, through public debate, and at the ballot box.
Keep the peace. And keep the faith.

Did Trump also kidnap the Epstein Files?
Whatever happened with the DOJ’s requirement to release the files, explain the redactions, and catalog everything they had?

Just reading about how statistics being quoted by right wing commentators about the number of schools with ‘no white British pupils’ have been collated on a definition of ‘white British’ which is dependent on all your GRANDPARENTS having been born here.

Unhook ourselves from oil and gas and we unhook ourselves from dependency on dictators, autocrats and expansionist regimes all over the planet.
Renewables and other low-carbon energy sources are not just good climate sense. They are also good political sense.

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:
"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Amazing how many people who claimed to care deeply about the welfare of Jewish people/combatting antisemitism whilst cheering on the Israeli government’s genocide now use antisemitic slurs and tropes to attempt to silence/diminish the Jewish men who allege that Farage bullied them at school.

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.
For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.
The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

This is not an institutional scandal in any meaningful sense of the word. It is an attack on public service broadcasting.
