    Wow, I’m not tormented at all. I guess if you don’t diddle kids you have nothing to worry about…

    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.

    Can we start calling him “The Royal formally known as Prince”?

    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.

      The entire Royal Family knew exactly what was going on. No coincidence that as soon as Andrew made an absolute embarrassment of himself in that infamous interview, he’s suddenly out of sight and the British media suddenly shuts up about it.

      Everyone knew, especially the 45th US president seen in many photos and videos with Epstein.

    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.

      Having power has been shown to reduce your brain’s capacity for empathy. Neurologically, the rich actually are more capable of evil than normal people.

        I think you might have it backwards. An empathy deficit (sociopathy) is highly correlated with the C-suite. It’s not that sociopathy makes a person a better leader. It doesn’t. It’s more that a person with dark triad traits isn’t going to care who they step on or what lines they cross to get there.

        In other words, they were already screwed up.

          So selection bias, basically. Leaders aren’t always sociopaths but sociopaths are more likely to be in leadership roles due to their lack of concern for the means that get them to their end.

        And having no empathy makes it more enjoyable to fuck people over to become rich. Maybe not a consideration for royals who were born into wealth, but certainly a factor in the circles they move in.

        Yea, every 5-6 years it seems like someone within a few degrees of separation from me gets arrested for some pedo shit. It makes it hard to trust anyone. This year there were two. It’s fucking terrifying.

          It’s almost like you don’t hear about people in other classes because unless they commit some particularly heinous instance or attack a large number of kids, that shit is basically reported on once and forgotten.

      I think it’s a power thing. If sex is perceived as a power thing, than what’s the most vagrant display of power? I’d argue child sex slave
