  • “People are gonna be pedophiles whether we like it or not, so why are we bothering to do anything to highlight predatory behavior?”

    If anything, the issue isn’t that people have these attractions and fantasies, it is that some portion of those people can’t separate fantasy from reality and are willing to hurt a child to get what they want, or they are sociopaths that consume child porn without feeling disgust for witnessing horrific child abuse.

    Correct. That’s what the issue is. We should definitely make sure that we aren’t encouraging any kind of behavior that perpetuates the demand for CSAM.





  • It is and it isn’t. The judicial process is a very complex system. There is hundreds of years of case precedent to consider. There is nuance to every situation. Judges and juries are meant to be impartial, and its the lawyers that need to argue convincingly that their appraisal of the law is more valuable than the opponent lawyer’s appraisal of the law. It is literally the most sophisticated method of determining the truth in a matter of legal wrongdoing. Copyright law is a fairly clear cut area of law, and this guy was bold faced selling Nintendo hardware that he modded.

    Now, criminal law on the other hand. That’s a complete joke.




  • So he admits it. The plan was always to destroy Gaza, not Hamas, wasn’t it? Israel has some of the most advanced weaponry and intelligence out of any government on Earth, and the best they can do is indiscriminately bomb hospitals, refugee camps, residential blocks, and schools just in case Hamas is there, which is considered a warcrime by The Geneva Convention and the Rome Statute of the ICC. Rules of engagement state you do not attack civilian infrastructure in order to eliminate hostiles, unless you can demonstrate that the loss of civilian life is negligible compared to the military advantage gained from attacking a civilian building that houses hostiles. I’m sure the IDF really needed that hospital to run tactical ops out of.
