Ecuador would like Julian Assange out of their embassy by the sounds of it.

Or, they've been at that level for years and have gotten away with it thus far. Precisely because of the attitude he and don troomp have tried to normalise. There should be no place for that shit anywhere, and certainly not on here.

 

[butchersapron]

When i say tommy above i mean Tommy Sheridan of course and refer to Dexter's shameless joining in traducing Katrine Trolle.

 

[Idris2002]

Oh...that's a slur is it?..but it's not a slur for your cunty mates to be saying shit like some people wouldn't care about rape if it suited their political agenda?

Like danny just did. And you gave it a like.

Two-faced prick, fuck off.

You're all so obvious. Like I said you're all frantic that someone has been raped just so you can do the charge of the right brigade. You just don't like it being pointed out.

This is absurd.

back before the thread turned to dung, something more interesting was posted

Judges Hear Warning on Prosecution of WikiLeaks


“I think the prosecution of him would be a very, very bad precedent for publishers,” McCraw said. “From that incident, from everything I know, he’s sort of in a classic publisher’s position and I think the law would have a very hard time drawing a distinction between The New York Times and WikiLeaks.”

The Americans aren't quite as stupid as they look. Here

Assange, 47, is charged with one count of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion. He faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison if convicted, though he may yet face additional charges.

US prosecutors allege Assange helped Manning crack an encrypted password to gain access to the computer network under a username that did not belong to her, making it more difficult for authorities to trace the source of leaked documents.

So nothing to do with either publishing nor the legitimate activities of a journalist, unless the NYT encourages journalists to crack national security passwords, in which case they're entering the same territory as the NoTW before it shut down in disgrace.

We'll have to wait and see whether that charge will be regarded by the Swedish (or British, or EU) judiciary as simple criminal wrongdoing or as an attempt to get round their ban on extraditing for political crimes.

 

[butchersapron]

Discussion of the motivation of the most vocal assange supporters say/do and what this means/might say about wider society is not dung. It's about the only thing positive that might come out of this. Way to elevate what you're particularly interested in though - even though it was pretty much done as far as it could be on here on friday.

 

[redsquirrel]

Bunch of pricks on this thread actually hoping someone's been raped because it suits their own ulterior motives, seems to me.

Oh give over, this is truly pathetic even for you.

EDIT: Just seen the stuff DotCommunist and Pickman's model posted. Fucking hell, I thought Dexter was a dick but that comment is vile.

fair enough. Can't say I found the last few pages particularly revealing, but I shouldn't have been rude about what other people wanted to discuss.

You missed a bit, son.

The bit where I was being accused of not giving a shit about rape because it apparently suited me politically.

I was speaking in general terms about those who clearly dont care about sex crimes if the possible perpetrator had some political attributes that float their boat.

...is what I was replying to.

It was me that was originally on the receiving end of this outrageous-behaviour-that-has-no-place-on-the-boards.

No-one had a problem with it when you or your mates are dishing it out though. It isn't unacceptable then.

But if I turn round and say the same back? Well...look at them. Look at you.

Four legs good.

you or your mates.

People with mutually trusting relationships are the real fascists lol

You’re a rape-fantasist. Do you ever think that’s why people don’t want to be your friend.

 

[Magnus McGinty]

I think it’s perhaps a natural reaction for eyebrows to raise when someone who has been rattling some big cages suddenly gets sexual misconduct (is it ever anything else?) allegations slung at them.
The next step from that isn’t to declare them innocent though. There’s enough history of people doing good things also being monsters.

This is really unacceptable and has generated multiple reports. You're banned off this thread for a week in the hope you that'll you stop calling people 'rape fantasists' when you come back.

 

[andysays]

I agree that MiB's comment was a bit OTT, but if you're going to start banning people you might want to have a look at some of DexterTCN 's comments as well

 

[andysays]

This one for instance

Oh you mean me?

I don't care about sex crimes if I've ulterior motives?

Innocent until proven guilty and all that.....but sorry, he comes across to me - and always did do - as a deeply unpleasant, egotistical person. And a rather unsavoury one at that.

DexterTCN has said that being raped is 'the least someone deserves'.

MiB's description of him seems entirely accurate.

Yet another wrong person banning

 

[butchersapron]

Not good modding this i'm afraid.

In the age of Trump there's no bottom to the hole, just a bigger shovel...

 

[cupid_stunt]

Perhaps editor didn't see the post from Dexter that had been referenced, which resulted in MadeInBedlam's reply, Pickmans Model screenshot it in post 1072 on this thread, the original was...

Well if she was raped, I say good. The least she deserves.

In that context it may be a bit OTT calling him a 'rape-fantasist', but not that unreasonable IMO.

 

[danny la rouge]

I’m surprised that was the post that generated reports. I’d have thought Dexter’s line over several posts was worse.

I did report those but that seems not to have mattered.

He's now banned of this thread for a week too. I would have banned him at the same time but sometimes, you know, I have a life.

I didn't because I hadn't read any of this thread. I don't think it's on for a poster to accuse anyone of being 'rape-fantasist' though.

That's exactly what dexter accused loads of people of being. At length, repeatedly and abusively. That's why people were confused. But he's gone from this thread now at least. I don't think that he should be here at all after this myself.
