Accusations by a woman who "credibly accused Donald Trump of having sex with a minor he met through Jeffrey Epstein," were reportedly removed from the files.
forced a woman to give him oral sex when she was in her early teens
Talk about failure as a journalist. I just can’t with these assholes. They’re almost as guilty as Trump in that their word choice helps every last one of those bastards get away with it.
If the GIRL was a TEEN, then she was a CHILD, not a woman. I don’t care about the potential for alternative interpretations here. The frame placed on the situation is done with one word: woman. Not teen. Not child. Not kid. Not girl. “Woman”. Which creates a sideways shift in perception.
Again, this isn’t a failure, the media is working exactly as intended. They aren’t on our side, they’re on the side of the ruling class. The ruling class bought and own the media. They aren’t going to use the media to criticize themselves.
If we want to see justice, we need to make it. We need to take action. The rules of the system protect the ruling class. We need to break the rules and break the system itself.
They wouldn’t need to blackmail our politicians if that was the case . I think you’ve got it backwards it’s us who’s occupied by them. Netynahu is calling the shots Trump is a joke
I don’t have it backwards, I promise you. Israel is a colony set up by the US and the UK with the explicit purpose of advancing their foreign policy goals in the Middle East. The US pretends that Israel is a sovereign nation because the US population would not tolerate their actions if it was their own country.
Israel destabilizes the middle east, making the region ripe for extractionism.
Not all US politicians are aligned with US/Israeli imperialist interests and thus they are bribed, but plenty of them aren’t.
Trump is a puppet, but he’s not Israel’s puppet, he’s the puppet of the primarily US-based ruling elite.
Look at all of the connections between Mossad and the CIA. They work together all the time.
It started out that way. I don’t think it’s wrong to question the current power dynamics. Why would the US and UK care in the least of some college students are sitting in protest of Gaza? Nothing in that act changes their daily in the least. Nothing.
Because the US (and the UK, a satellite state of the US) support ongoing US imperialist endeavors. Protesting Israel’s continued genocide brings awareness to it, and the boycotts, divestments and sanctions (BDS) programs directly fuck up the bag, which is the entire point of colonialism, to get that bag.
Look, I totally understand the temptation to want to shunt everything bad onto Israel. Nobody wants to live in a country that does terrible things, because that makes us all feel a little guilty for not doing more to stop it. I totally get that, and absolutely there is nothing wrong with questioning it. The problem is that most people just arrive at the conclusion that the US is being controlled by Israel with very little understanding of the geopolitics of the region, because it makes them feel better to blame Israel for all of the evil happening.
We need to wake up to the reality of US Imperialism, and stop sticking our heads in the sand.
Yeah there is a big sibling little sibling dynamic and isreal is not the big sibling.
You would do anything for your little sibling and likewise the US would do anything for Isreal. It’s not right but it true, but that doesn’t mean they control us.
“Underage woman” is an oxymoron. Woman means adult female, and cannot be described as underage without contradicting yourself. These journalists are attempting to lessen the emotional response and confuse people by avoiding saying child or teenager.
Certin News people faced justice when the Nazis fell, a lot of people forget that it wasnt just the soldier of the regime that were tried and persecuted. Tho this person likely isn’t the subject, her editer def might get looked over
what the fuck? so… let me get this straight. you say we’re not mad about the systematic child exploitation. we say “yes we are” you say “what, specifically, are you upset about” we say “the systematic child exploitation” and then you call me an incel?
that’s…
really weird. it seems like you just want to be mad at people on the internet today. unless we can clear up whatever misunderstanding this is, i’m going to assume you’re a troll and block you because you are absolutely not behaving like someone who actually wants to do something about this problem and instead wants to do some fake moralizing about how the rest of us only care about words and you’re the only one who’s actually concerned about the sytematic child exploitation.
There’s a distinct difference between how some of these terms are used depending on context. There is biological status and then there is legal status.
So be careful where & when you take issue.
Here, legal terms are appropriate due to the subject matter, and you should definitely suggest to the authors that they adjust the terms used accordingly.
Just complaing to the ether may be cathartic, but inaction is also complicit.
However teen is a teen regardless of context, as it’s a designation of age group, not a legal or biological classification. So it’s up to the reader to determine relevance of the teens age beyond that.
Even in paper days journalism deliberately packed their first and second sentences of an article with the most punchy and relevant details because they knew, with every additional sentence, readers were lost.
The line is buried. And could be stated more succinctly with “13 year old girl”, punching in the relevant details.
Instead, extra words are added. It’s deliberate. And it’s journalism’s job not to do this because a large slice of readers will hit only the key words and move on.

The ruling class and Israel control the media
Israel is a puppet state of the US. It is also controlled by the ruling class.

Raped a teenager. That’s what he did. He raped a teenage girl .
He raped a 13 year old girl. There. I said what should be in the headlines.
“Underage woman” is a phrase used by pedophile supporters.
You even wrote the word underage, nobody is supporting that, your point makes no sense
You didn’t read what I wrote.

Early teens…. This is so disgusting

Its a fucking new director conspiracy:

It’s funny people seem more upset by the word choice than the rape committed and human trafficking.
Bad faith troll
Is that what you think is happening here?
In case you missed it:
It’s funny people seem more upset by the word choice than the rape committed and human trafficking.
So, you are just an actual idiot. Noted.
I’ll take any iq test against you and you will fail miserably against me.
Wow. The dumbest reply imaginable…

IQ tests are eugenics nonsense. don’t be an ablist
Removed by mod
Yeah, cause that’s not the exact thing an idiot would say.
Says the idiot.
we’re upset that the word choice runs cover for the thing we’re REALLY upset about
Semantics?
systematic child exploitation.

She was a woman by the time she was able to report it, but it’s very poorly worded.
