Yeah real talk what IS going on with TLC? like their track record is damning, and not just with this show
I never watched the Duggar show, but didn't TLC also have some weird show about guys living with their mail-order brides? Maybe it was more generally about long-distance couples getting married and moving in but I think it was mostly just arranged marriages for citizenship with the creepiest, saddest fuckers.

What other horrors has TLC brought?

he's either in a massive amount of denial or because he's skated on the consequences of his predatory sexual behavior before he can't grasp the magnitude of the trouble he's in

because the evangelical church tries as hard as it can to pretend sex doesn't exist, the idea that sex crimes exist and other people find it disgusting can be hard to understand if you're one of the people (powerful men) allowed to prey on others
There's also the way his religion is reinforced by the way Josh gets to skate by instead of facing consequences. Belief in (this specific version of) For means God will provide.

Josh is the First Born Son of the Patriarch, therefore God will provide.

Josh molested his sisters but his Patriarch father covered for him, thus God did provide.

Josh was caught cheating on his wife, and religious leaders protected him, thus God did provide.

Now Josh is on trial but in his mind God will provide and he is certain he will not be punished.

I've never really connected the Duggar family to the family of my best friend growing up until now. He was, at the time, the seventh child, and the first boy. He was born exactly one month before me, and lived two houses down the street, we were definitely best friends as kids. They had (as far as I know) ten more kids after that, all girls. They all went to a private Baptist school. The kind of Baptist school that starts a private "college."

All of the girls were basically pushed out of the house as soon as they were 18. Most of them, thankfully, I've re-met through social media and are living lives separate from the family that raised them. Unfortunately, one I know has died of suicide.

My old best friend is the pastor of one of those "everything you do is a sin and you will die, God loves you but you are a sinner!" kind of churches.

His dad, I forget the circumstance because I was nine or ten years old, came down the stairs and pointed a gun at me while my friend and I were playing pool.

I guess that's my story about the quiverfulls, thanks for reading.

I think the long game is to make sure such a large percentage of the local population are your direct descendants that it becomes difficult to select a jury to convict you of your massive sex crimes.

They were the channel that did those Child Beauty Pageant shows that were gross for a couple different reasons, which led to Honey Boo Boo getting a spinoff with her family.

Which did well, but got cancelled when the mother of Honey Boo Boo dumped her partner and started dating the pedophile who molested her daughter a decade before the show.

Like so many other families, we too have faced crises, difficulties, and heartbreak. “Cancel culture” and the radical left want to keep us from being involved in politics. They say because our family has faced problems we should shrink away—this is why they are often so relentlessly unkind, but we cannot sit on the sidelines during a time when one of America’s most important battles is taking place! We are devoted to doing our part and making a difference for our children and grandchildren. 

I previously served in the Arkansas House of Representatives and stood alongside Governor Mike Huckabee in the fight against the liberal “good old boys.” I’ve started businesses and helped our region prosper. I have been tried and tested in the public spotlight and never changed. You’ll always know where I stand and I will stand firm for Arkansas families, even if it means standing alone. 

Also

This is the defense angle


quote:

Defense attorneys for Duggar have argued that someone else downloaded or placed the child pornography onto the 33-year-old’s work computer, noting that no child pornography was found on Duggar’s phone or laptop.

Clearly it could not be him because he would have saved csam on his phone and laptop

Yea they're usually extremely confident when they charge a "normal" person, but when they go after a well-known person they REALLY do their homework.

I'm guessing the reason he's not taking the plea deal is because they weren't going to take much off anyways, since he's the only person that was ever under investigation and they have no other reasons to bargain with him further.

What I'm curious about is how Josh got caught in the first place, who had been monitoring his downloads in the first place?

Discovery , the parent company of TLC, used to air the show "Sons of Guns", making the good people at Red Jacket Firearms famous. They were notorious for shirking gun laws by doing stuff like changing serial numbers to reuse parts, the owner raped kids and is doing life in prison, and they were often late with customers orders.

Torrents are extremely public. Anyone else in the torrent can easily see which IPs are active on it. If you are not behind a VPN or proxying through TOR, you are instantly busted.

As a less illegal example, if you go and download a dozen different new-release movies this week you might get a letter from your ISP telling you to knock it off. The movie studios are watching the torrents, and they send ISPs a notice saying "IP ### on your network downloaded this movie". The ISP looks at their records and says "oh that's user Tumble". If you keep doing it your ISP may cut you off, or you might get sued for copyright infringement.

Likewise, the FBI is using concealed clients to sit on CSAM torrents and see who is downloading them.

(If you are using a commercial VPN to download CSAM, the company will absolutely give you up to the feds. Proxying through TOR is not easy to set up for novices.)


Josh didn't even use a VPN.

Hell in the Mozilla VPN terms of service it flat out states something along the lines of "We don't route traffic for adult sites and known illegal sources" I don't remember the exact verbiage, but it's not even fine-print style stuff. It's on basically page one of the 'click here to sign up' poo poo. They knowingly will re-direct you back to your ISP for tracking, even as a VPN service. And that's assuming he'd done even that, which he didn't.

Josh is fundie-school-raised weapons-grade stupid and I’m certain that as the “technical” kid of the family he has no clue what a VPN is.

Also for those of you outside the US, if you’re curious why our country is so hosed up, it’s because our state governments are chock-full of men as dumb as the Duggars thanks to a push by evangelical Christians to get in the government and change us into a theocratic nation.
