Again, as my comment said, this would have been a great place for a third party to try and make their mark if none of the candidates are worthwhile.

To be truly honest I wouldn’t have taken this bowl-cut youth that seriously either... this child is not in the same universe as AOC

okay but that’s kind of my point? lol. Like I can see if the area votes so solidly democrat why the republicans wouldn’t run, but that means it’s probably an easier zone for one of the third parties to run.

I didn’t mean the Independent party, I meant all third parties. I guess maybe that lingo isn’t as interchangeable as I thought? But where are all the third parties when it comes to these elections

I’m angry on so many levels. The first one is just obvious, as enumerated in the piece.

There is some evidence in favor of alternative theories. The other big thing was the dogs I think? They weren’t tracking the scent, they were led to where the scent could be (near his boat or storage or whatever) and it’s possible the dogs were picking up cues from the trainer - especially since one of them had like a…

wait what? what does this mean, they broke in? what

You are overreacting to an absurd degree. Were you the brother in this scenario? Sorry pal but let it go, this happened a LONG time ago

I guess if my dad was some weird alt-right psychologist Iwould probably try to give him scurvy too!

everyone in the replies taking this super seriously and shaming you for not doing your homework probably a decade ago is sending me lol

Yo one of my friend’s friends boyfriend IS LITERALLY DOING THIS AS A DIET RN (or at least, was doing it, haven’t seen him in a while) It’s kinda bizarre to me because he seems like a smart person but if you’re like Uh aren’t you worried about... your heart? Your everything? He’s like Nah I think it’s fine. But no joke…

He is a true sicko. I would recommend watching the HBO docuseries, though it can be a lot to stomach. The series really emphasizes how people not taking rape seriously as a crime is what allowed so many serial killers to flourish then (because they often escalate from rape - but since rape wasn’t taken seriously, no…

yeah if she brought up 20 other cool things she could do to help the country it would have been a really effective and streamlined message

I read and re-read that 5 times refusing to believe someone would type something so bizarre

oh and PS if the “your reading comprehension skills are negligible” comment was about the book Lolita, I guarantee you either didn’t read it... or are a child molester. There is no other way to interpret that book. :) 

I haven’t watched the movies, but if they spin it a different way that definitely explains why pop culture seems to tell it like a love story.

lmao yes, I was honestly surprised by all these comments coming down so hard on her. Where are we?? She can be a victim without them being “predators” - it takes some real effort to believe a 15 year old, and particularly this 15 year old, was a mastermind manipulator.

I don’t think anyone is implying that she was a basement prisoner, the “lucky to escape alive” comment I took more to mean, she was a child in an adult’s world and likely didn’t have as much wherewithal to know when someone was being a dangerous creep, considering everyone she was around was constantly older than her.

The timeline goes like this:

she was a babysitter and the mom (of the kid she babysat) got it for her so she could get more jobs, like as a favor. She didn’t use it to do porn right away, she was trying to do just modeling - the comment implies she was very scheming but I think it was just one thing turned into another, “right place right time” -…
