Good. Suffer, you utter shitgibbon. I want you to be as terrified as everyone else who you had to 'involve' yourself with was.

Bet you're sweating now, fuck face.

[-] EdanGrey@sh.itjust.works 46 points 11 months ago

I have never heard the insult 'shitgibbon' before, but i love it

[-] Stamets@lemmy.world 40 points 11 months ago

It's in the same vein as douchecanoe but rarer. Rarer than a cockwomble or fucknugget but not as rare as a wankpuffin.

[-] TopRamenBinLaden@sh.itjust.works 19 points 11 months ago

Ah, the ever elusive wankpuffin.

He is facing his second Christmas without his mother

He's a senior citizen, that is such a weak grab for pity.

[-] tourist@lemmy.world 89 points 11 months ago

Welp then he should have spent more time with mummy instead of raping children on an island

I cannot even pretend to have sympathy for this bastard

[-] puchaczyk@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 11 months ago

And his mother was also a bitch for protecting her rapist son.

Why do the good ones die so young?

[-] bane_killgrind@lemmy.ml 12 points 11 months ago

Don't forget we all thought she was going to live forever...

[-] ohlaph@lemmy.world 182 points 11 months ago

He's embarrassed, not tormented.

The girls and boys he probably raped were tormented.

[-] catbaba@lemmus.org 38 points 11 months ago

Classic DARVO technique by the prince

[-] BeefPiano@lemmy.world 167 points 11 months ago

Tormented like he’s being sex trafficked under-age? Afraid like if he doesn’t do what the men say that they’ll torture him and he’s powerless to stop them? That kind of tormented?

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 51 points 11 months ago

Tormented like having to ask King Chuckie to send out the Gestapo to arrest anyone who mentions the diddling again

Why are there so many pedos among the rich

[-] blargerer@kbin.social 83 points 11 months ago

They are in the position of power to act on their desires. It's probably the same % everywhere.

[-] MyPornViewingAccount@lemmy.world 81 points 11 months ago

Nah, I think it has more to do with power.

Theyre in a position to get something so illegal and evil, the thrill is in the power of doing something that lesser people would be executed for.

[-] alvvayson@lemmy.world 63 points 11 months ago

I think this is a major part of it.

Which is why high levels of wealth and power actually lead to bad mental health of the rich and powerful.

They get detached from normal life and start looking for thrills in the wrong places. It's kind of a similar effect as what middle class people know as lifestyle adaptation or the hedonic treadmill.

Once the normal things that provide pleasure are easy to obtain, people start looking for pleasure in places that still provide mystery, adventure and a challenge.

These people desperately need therapy to learn how to be content with normal things, but instead they follow their flawed monkey brains into a trap.

[-] eighthourlunch@kbin.social 17 points 11 months ago

Sociologists call it anomie.

[-] A_A@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomie
In sociology, anomie is a social condition defined by an uprooting or breakdown of any moral values, standards or guidance for individuals to follow. Anomie is believed to possibly evolve from conflict of belief systems and causes breakdown of social bonds between an individual and the community (both economic and primary socialization). ...etc. ...

Others provided many explanations, but in Epstein island's case I think it was a sick rite of a passage for those feeling they are the new elite. By doing something so wrong together, like mafia, they enter a circle where everyone is silent about others' crime as they all share the same dirt and would all be discovered after one of them starts to speak. They are expected not to talk about that, or other morbid deals they discussed there in private, and it keeps them alert. Some of visitors could be into that being dangerous pervs and power addicts, and Epstein shared trafficked children like wine with premium guests, but the more important aspect is that child abuse was a glue that cemented that sect, shut their mouths for life and led to a perfectly timed murder of an organizer in a guarded cell.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

Mr. Gates, in turn, praised Mr. Epstein’s charm and intelligence. Emailing colleagues the next day, he said: “A very attractive Swedish woman and her daughter dropped by and I ended up staying there quite late.”

Behind the Bastards Bill Gates.

Part 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFS9DFXtj1M

Part 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TV5d2_o1Gl0

The NY Times article is paywalled, but BtB goes into more detail anyway. Gates was invited to and visited Epstein's island or at least one of this parties. Claimed they weren't really his thing, but left it at that. Gates was definitely in a position to have done more to expose Epstein if he wanted. Supposedly, Bill Gate's name being on the list was the catalyst Melinda Gates divorcing his ass.

Hoarding wealth in greater quantities than you could ever use in order to have power over others desperate to just survive is abusive to start with. They're probably exposed to other people with all variants of abusive tendencies and trained to believe they are better than and deserving of the suffering of others. Being raised in that environment will definitely encourage a much higher proportion of other abusive behaviors.

He should be tormented. In fact I propose he be placed in stocks in the town square so that people could pelt him with rotten produce and spit on him.

If this is torment, how would you describe what those children went through?

[-] zik@lemmy.world 50 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Hey Prince Andrew, if the truth hurts then maybe it's you that's in the wrong?

[-] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 47 points 11 months ago

Reminder that the king was also best buds with Jimmy Savile and I refuse to believe he wasn't aware of the rumors. Also refuse to believe the king didn't know Epstein, when Epstein was partying on Royal properties with the Kings family and friends.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Prince Andrew is said to be “totally tormented” at the prospect of his relationship with the paedophile Jeffrey Epstein coming under further scrutiny after a judge ordered the release of secret case files.

US Judge Loretta Preska ruled on Monday 18 December that documents relating to more than 170 people who were either associates, friends or victims of disgraced financier Epstein should be made public.

They include 40 documents of evidence from Johanna Sjoberg, who has claimed the Duke of York touched her breast while sitting on a couch inside the US billionaire’s Manhattan apartment in 2001.

Andrew stepped down from public life after the furore over his friendship with Epstein and paid millions to settle a civil sexual assault case to Ms Giuffre, a woman he claimed never to have met.

In the infamous 2019 interview, Andrew denied Ms Giuffre’s claims and said an alleged encounter with her in 2001 could not have happened as he spent the day with his daughter, Princess Beatrice, taking her to Pizza Express in Woking for a party.

In January 2022, ahead of his legal settlement, his mother the Queen stripped Andrew of all of his honorary military roles, including Colonel of the Grenadier Guards.


The original article contains 719 words, the summary contains 202 words. Saved 72%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

This website is abysmal; nearly unusable, jumping all over the place. Not quite as bad as the topic, but… giving it a run for its money.
