Any other time in my life and for several lifespans before mine it would be the biggest fucking thing
Not to sound like a feeble old man yelling at clouds but it feels like the world is sick and broken in a way I don't understand
Is this #news going to fade by next week to a blip due to some new bullshit?

As an early member of Generation X, I grew up with values that are often completely at odds with those of today. How can it be that a wider part of society ignores child abuse? In the past, people would have kicked down the door if a politician or even a president had molested children, but today these filthy pigs are protected. What the hell is wrong with this world?

@Ben Royce 
That's actually a problem if you're on vanilla Mastodon with only 500 characters per toot and only 1,500 characters of alt-text per image. Your only chance would be to spread the transcripts across a massive thread.
If you regularly have to post images with well over 1,500 characters of text in them, you could move elsewhere in the Fediverse that offers more characters, but that's still federated with Mastodon. Examples:- Misskey has a hard-coded limit of 3,000 characters.
- Sharkey has a configurable limit that defaults to 3,000 characters.
- Pleroma and Akkoma have configurable limits that default to 5,000 characters.
- Friendica and Hubzilla (I'm commenting from the latter right now) are limited to over 16.7 million characters by their databases.
- (streams) (where I post my images nowadays) and Forte are limited to over 24 million characters.
The downside of this, however, is that your posts will exceed 500 characters. And this means you'll lose a whole lot of reach. There are lots and lots of Mastodon users who block everyone who ever posts over 500 characters at once at first strike because they want Mastodon/the Fediverse to be and remain a 100% pure microblogging "service" with no more than 500 characters.

@Ben Royce Yes, "biggest fucking thing" is exactly the correct way to put it

Alt text note:
These are dense images of text content that are much larger than the alt text buffer. I'm trying to honor alt text but I don't know how here
Content warning note:
These are images of text containing #childRape allegations that could be triggering. You have to zoom in a lot on the images to read them so avoid it if you are sensitive to this material

@benroyce Can you or anyone tell me where these pages are derived from? Were they summaries from 302’s?

OMG! How is this not causing more riots? They wanted them released and now, nothing? -

Yes. But we already knew that...right?

@benroyce I think by now, most people know and understand how "flooding the zone" works. What I really don't understand is how these things do not have consequences. Neither the corruption nor the child rape allegations. Why did things like this use to have consequences? What changed? I am honestly baffled, but I would like to understand.

I was able to alt text this one via the “copy all” feature, then paste it here. It doesn’t always work, especially on court docs.Name
Complaint Summary
Responsereported an unidentified female friend
who was forced to perform oral sex on President Trump approximately 35 years ago in NJ. The friend told Alexis that she was approximately 13-14 years old when this occurred, and the friend allegedly bit President Trump while performing oral sex. The friend was allegedly hit in the face after she laughed about biting President Trump. The friend said she was also abused by Epstein.
Spoke with caller who identified
as friend. Lead was
sent to Washington Office to conduct interview. -

@benroyce the idea that this could somehow be normalized is absolutely revolting!
I've said it elsewhere, but if these monsters get away with this it only empowers them to do worse things

@benroyce I hope it's crystal-clear now why the frenzied fascist takeover is necessary.
Trump and Musk are the tip of the iceberg. Billionaire men from all over the world paid Jeffrey Epstein to rape girls. And they are being protected here by Pam Bondi.
Putin is enabling this.

It's sad, tragic really. But the corporate media enables Trump, and #MAGA Republicans (which is all of them now) seem fine with a pedophile president. Their mask is off: all they ever wanted was power for themselves and hate for everyone else.
"There are plausible allegations of #childRape against the President of the #USA and the firehose of bullshit and attention spans are such that it registers meekly"
@elasticsoul @benroyce "and hate for everyone else" NO! Hate takes too much energy to support and is draining for 'Them' - please note the capital 'T' as they are only pismires on steroids showing 'roid rage' behaviour - so they only despise us because we can't access the billons they have stolen from us and because we can be divided as we are many, they are few.

Short answer: yes.
With the Donald Trump administration it is one or more outrages after yet other outrages, all diverting attention from each other.

Anybody else would have been impeached, prosecuted and removed already.
But SCOTUS and the Republican party are covering this bastard…Frankly unbelievable.

@benroyce Also, Ghislaine Maxwell is being held in comfy digs with private meals and puppy playtime so she won't sing like a canary. She's dictating things from her cozy cell.
Pedophile men from all over the world are scared shitless of what shitbag Maxwell might say unless they pamper her until the pants-shitter pardons her.
Pedophilia is normalized among the billionaires #Epstein class.
Connect these dots, people. They're so goddamn easy and obvious.
