Someone needs to make a documentary called Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn & Shame which explains precisely why there is no standard or obvious response to sexual violence and why shame secures silence, sometimes for years, or even decades.

She did. But noone seems to remember her
No matter how many times I hear her, her voice still leaves me speechless. She had one of the most extraordinary singing voices in music history.

Woman stopped for jaywalking. She argued with patrol officers. The end.
It’s happening and we warned you it would. A woman walking her dog on the streets of NYC was stopped and harassed by two Muslim cops, telling her it was wrong and that they were going to take her dog from her. Dogs are haram and considered filthy in Islam. This ideology has no place in our nation. It’s going to get a lot worse.

Another rape apologist crawls out from unnder its stone.
Almost everyone who is loving what is happening to Russell Brand right now has not been following him for the last 15ish years since his sex addict days, during which he has clearly shown himself to be a reformed character. (Or they’re pretending they haven’t).

Bloke revealing he doesn't understand consent.
Most fair and accurate thing I’ve seen in regard to this. Is the guy an asshole ? Yeah . Is he kinda creepy and annoying as fuck ? Yeah Did he probably piss off a few women back in the day when he was slangin wang ? Sure . Doesn’t automatically make someone a rapist !

Lots of words to say "I'm cross that you won't take my fantasy world seriously".

Information is what our brains use to understand what is going on around us It's interpretation is what we understand as reality Morons, like this, are often used by those who benefit from a restriction & control of info to promote a particular narrative, and subsequently a reality for millions One thing will never be true - less information makes you smarter It's paradoxical to think that being more thick will make one more superior in an interaction like this Such stupidity is often characteristic of a bot, not quite smart enough to be human If a real person however, I won't guess the stance on the flurry of other issues that have been used to fracture public unity over last 6 years, but I'm fairly confident they won't have proven themselves an asset to the community On the contrary, with masks in the drawer, puncture holes in the arm and no doubt a modified pride flag hidden away somewhere, it's much more likely they were helping dismantle Britain

When your entire argument depends on lies, you just look foolish and lazy. There is no such book. There wete no such gangs. Burnham did not initiate or run operation Hexagon.

Shall we start by getting you to repay the costs of your vexatious litigation agsinst wonen?
Powerful men use the law to intimidate women they’ve abused into silence. But it’s time to flip the fear. Help us to fund cases that turn the tables on these men, empower women to speak out – and get justice: goodlaw.social/plpq

Jolyon Maugham, the director of the GLP, has a history of harassing women that campaign for sex based rights. This includes Sarah Phillimore who has had to take legal action against him. crowdjustice.com/case/protectio… And recently he made derogatory remarks about the appearance and age of Barbara Rich. x.com/barbararich_la…

Now look at it from the perspective that the govt is controlled by a transnational group of terrorist businessmen who want to "reset" global cultures to create a single, fractured, global public under a one world govt Britain is being dismantled Their decisions make sense when we abandon the idea they are serving us We have an abundance of smart people, but an existential lack of leadership against the parasite class

Scrabbling to pretend they weren't mates.
I've met Russell Brand twice (I think): Once when I hosted a Guardian Live event about his book in 2014. Another time I interviewed him for The Big Issue when I was guest editing in 2015. He also gave my publishers an endorsement for my book The Establishment, which I was mortified about at the time mostly because I thought it was so OTT it would obviously invite ridicule (which it did). At the time I saw him as a crude means to reach disillusioned younger people with left-wing politics - the sort of people who wouldn't be reached by conventional left-wing journalists and politicians. As a result I was willing to overlook, or just not look into, his history of problematic behaviour / statements, including sexism. I convinced myself that he was on some sort of journey and that was a good thing. That was an obvious misjudgement. I did think he was a bit of a chancer / had a messianic complex, but overlooked that too as a necessary evil in reaching disengaged people. But that was clearly his main driving force and he clearly ended up concluding that right-wing politics was a better vehicle to satisfy it. It's an important lesson in not stupidly engaging clearly problematic figures, however charismatic or however much mass appeal they have, in the service of a cause. What I would say is that right now we should be centring the survivors of a rapist and sexual predator. I personally don't really think those trying to point score have his survivors' interests at heart. I would also argue that those with the big questions to answer are the right-wing figures who continue to stand by him and spread conspiratorial nonsense in his defence. Finally, let's hope that other possible survivors of Russell Brand feel able to come forward.

Thus nutter has made a dozen posts (that I'm not wasting my time reading) after pretending Stephen Yaxley-Lennon is like Gandhi, starting with this ludicrous pretence that thuggery and fraud are the behaviour of a hero. These idiots walk among us folks.
No he wasn’t. He had a spat with his girlfriend who became a wife. A man intervened, man handled him, later declared he was police. Mortgage fraud was him acting as guarantor for his brother, to an already paid mortgage, which his brother lied in the application.

Bloke covers for his obvious lack of experience of communicating successfully with women by pretending that it's women's interests that are the problem, rather than the narrowness of his.
Because, in general, men write fiction that appeals to everyone, regardless of whether the protagonist is a man or a woman. In general women write things that appeal to women. Look at it in other places. Comedy and sports are two other great examples. The majority of male comedians appeal to everyone. The majority of female comedians base their whole shtick on being a woman.

When UK police forces permit officers to wear a remembrance poppy during the November Remembrance period, policies typically require the poppy or badge to be worn on the left lapel of a tunic, shirt, or main carrier/body armour vest rather than on loose outer hi-vis gear.
Why are none of you guys wearing a poppy? You're at a remembrance day parade............? I get moaned at for being critical of the cops, my intention is to show somethings changed, in 2009 when I joined the Police, we would all have been wearing one. #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget ?? It seems like the police of 2026 already have.

This person thinks that the victims of convicted rapist Brand are mererly making allegations,but the victims of non-convicted Saville should be treated with sensitivity.
