Many people are so afraid of injustice that they would harm victims further by denying its existence, rather than face the truth.

I think a lot these days about Saville, how he slowly wheedled his way into that community in Cragg Vale, not just to be accepted as a normal decent human, but to be appointed as their church leader, actually robed up, delivering Sunday sermons from the pulpit.

Due to my line of work amongst other factors, I have been targeted by several. They may not have all have the same end goals as Saville, but from what I can tell they employ all the same strategies of control, manipulation and exploitation.

I wonder how we create a society that can discern, not only to protect themselves, but to ensure they arent assisting evil inadvertently? ..Alongside ensuring fewer such people walk amongst us of course. This likely involves far more care in how we nurture & support nurturers.

My view of homeless people changed forever when I learned that more than half of them were foster kids who aged out of the system and were left with no family or resources

Sexually degrading and humiliating a woman together is a bonding activity for many, many men. When the next case inevitably breaks, we need to understand that group rape is not the extreme outlier of sexual violence we'd like to think it is. thetimes.com/uk/crime/articl…

Basic education piece: Not all Jewish people are Zionists. Lots of Zionists aren't Jews. The Board of Deputies largely self identity as Zionists. The Media often report the Board of Deputies as the opinion of Jewish people. Yet many Jewish people say #NotInOurName

Meghan Markle is getting more heat for being the daughter of an alleged paedophile than (Prince) Andrew got for actually being the alleged paedophile.

Ive seen so much value for people without LD being diagnosed with autism, who would have struggled on with no reference for understanding themselves a couple of decades ago, but people with PHDs & families speaking unreservedly for those with profound disability blows my mind.

Some men will do & defend anything for someone who gave them a sense of identity & belonging, even if that someone wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire. The manosphere is an exploitation pyramid scheme where men with no self worth can at least believe they are above women.
A child. He demanded a CHILD fist herself. Stop doing linguistic gymnastics to protect paedophiles.

The worst abusers aren’t the ones in prison, they’re the ones who have the rest of the world fooled into thinking they’re normal people.
