Okay seriousposting for a minute here: men like Saville were a systemic problem, and their crimes were normalised and covered up by failures on every level of society. The problem now is that rather than giving an honest assessment of how things got so hosed up, Saville is only ever brought up in bad faith by evil shitheads to attack an institution they hate (the BBC) while exonerating and whitewashing away the culpability of institutions they like (the police, the right-wing press, Thatcher's government)

hot take: perhaps saville is merely a symptom, but the problem is that sufficient social/monetary capital makes one immune to the law?

btw: internet "harassment" isn't real, and those that claim it should be mocked, dismissed and ridiculed.

internet harassment is real, but when a blue checkmark complains about it, they're almost always lying about it taking place

Honestly, what was the last worthwhile thing the BBC has even? All I can think of is Walking With Dinosaurs and that was in the 90s. Definitely not enough solid content to make up for their many, many, many sexual assaults on women and children.

I watched the video, and I don't know what to make of it.

It feels like a lot of these topics aren't suitable for young children. I -maybe- could see what she's trying to do here, but it's a bit lost on me.

I think the idea is more 'literal children can understand this, grown men have no excuse'. Though that's probably the joke.

You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!
Under cross-examination at both Acoli and Shakur's trials, Trooper Harper admitted to having lied in these reports and in his Grand Jury testimony about Trooper Foerster yelling and showing him an ammunition magazine, about seeing Shakur holding a pocketbook or a gun inside the vehicle, and about Shakur shooting at him from the car.Trooper Harper retracted his previous statements and said that he had never seen Shakur with a gun and that she did not shoot him.

shocking!

she wasn't even a minor participant from what i'm reading, she had her hands up and acoli shot at them then acoli drove them away while she was wounded. and she surrendered when the car stopped

That's because the GoT one makes it painfully obvious we are an empire that's about to collapse in the most disastrous fashion.

I think the wokes celebrating her are dipshits. Not her personally, I'll reserve judgement.

I don't know what to make of her personally though. I bet her views on economics are radically different than the wokes though.

they don't pay their writers, which makes them just another outlet that scolds people for not thinking correctly about idpol while not giving a poo poo about structural economic problems. i suppose their political news reporting is worthwhile, but the media landscape shouldn't be in such a state to allow a magazine that's usually about "10 tips to look hot during prom" to be good at it

Dont really have any opinion on Assata Shakur, not a single thought in my head about her, but every person who likes her are retarded dip shites who probably also have an unnuanced view of macroeconomics. Still no opinion about her tho lol
