I wish they’d just come out and say it: sorry we can’t release the Epstein client list. It’s most of Americas governing body and if we arrested all of them the country would collapse without leadership. It is what it is… You elected them.
Reached for comment, Trump’s communications director, Steven Cheung, said, “Michael Wolff is a lying sack of shit and has been proven to be a fraud. He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”
Very cordial and presidential
when will the trump just go ahead and make a pedo political party?
There is already one and he leads it.
Everybody buckled in for at least 3 and a half more years of headlines that everyone already knows and nobody will do anything about?
MAGA after Trump:
Calls his own daughter hot - “We don’t care”
Walking into a change room of underage girls and bragging about it - “We don’t care”
Blatant Fraud - “We don’t care”
Blackmail - “We don’t care”
Sexual Assault - “We don’t care”
Rape - “We don’t care”
And now we can definitively add:
Openly protecting a pedophile and pedophile ring - “We don’t care”

I mean, he can just have her offed in prison too.
Ghislaine Maxwell hasn’t killed herself yet.
Would not be surprised if the camera outside her cell has a time skip just before she un-alives herself…
un-alives herself
For fuck’s sake. This is not baby’s first Miiworld, this is not club penguin. Say kills. Say commits suicide. Say hangs/gets strangled/finds a gun under her bed and blows her brains out, spraying chunks of bone blood and flesh on the concrete. Say murder when you see murder, say genocide when you see genocide. Words have meaning.
You can use the correct words on the Fediverse. If anyone doesn’t want to see the word “suicide” they can filter it out. Tumblr got this right twenty years ago and modern social media has been beating newspeak out of previously fully communicative human beings. I swear to fuck I would rather have every single comment on Lemmy say skibidi gyatt ohio L aura about any serious topic than to see “unalived” one more fucking time. This is embarrassing.
……. Uh anyway yeah unskippable cutscene am I right haha crazy
(I actually believe both she and Jeffy have a probable reason to kill themselves: they may be otherwise facing a fate worse than death…)
Dude it’s a joke, a witticism.
Officially, it’s suicide, but everyone knows it’s murder. You can acknowledge the absurdity by calling it a third absurd thing, like un-alived.
It’s not a witticism. Users of a lot of modern mass media platforms (TikTok is the one that comes to mind) need to use increasingly euphemistic language to speak about anything. Unalive is a specific, famous one, you must have seen it before, even in deeply serious situations. Imagine watching someone sobbing while retelling a deeply personal experience only to say “I wanted to unalive myself 🥺” straight-faced between tears. That’s heartbreaking, disgusting stuff.
Someone sent me a cool woodworking video from TikTok a few months ago, and the carpenter man kept talking about dogs. I bought a dog of dogs here, I cut off a dog, make sure to check how many dogs your wood is. What the fuck? Checking the comments, they were all like “LMAO dog 💀💀💀💀💀💀” with zero explanation.
What are dogs? Dogs means feet now apparently. Fuck me if I know. If you say “feet” on TikTok, you get flagged as a fetish channel, so people say “dogs”. Why dogs? I don’t care. If you’re going to use stupid imperial measurements at least call them by a name I recognize.
“Corn” for porn is kind of funny because corn is a very unsexy word (and concept).
There is a lot of euphemistic algorithm evasion on TikTok, and this is not a phenomenon I’d want to see become endemic on the Fediverse. It’s also a thing on Instagram. And now it’s diffusing to unrelated places.
I’m usually not this petty on here but it really pisses me off. This is also becoming a problem on Tumblr apparently, which I intentionally mentioned up there. It is a platform with a rigorous tagging system, which lets users block what they don’t want to see, making it possible to write properly even, about rough stuff, without unnecessary self-censorship. Apparently new, younger users, coming from places like TikTok, will just write “CW:🍇🍇” in their post instead of using the word rape, for example. So people who would previously be safe, by filtering out “rape”, are now finding shit they don’t want to see in their feeds. People should have a place where they can write about their experiences, no matter how harrowing, but this cheapens it and makes it harder to properly organize.
The internet is for communication. Its usefulness as a means of effective communication is under attack from all sides. Let’s not just let that happen in our spaces, yeah
Old man, I’ll get off your lawn. Just let go of my arm first.
