news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Have a trial, let the jury view the material.
I'm not sure if anyone is even talking about that. I just see "transparency". But it's not like I spend a lot of time following the Discourse.
You’d need a jury comfortable with watching CSAM and we have a word for people like that.
oh yea totally, a jury has never had to deal with a CSAM involved case ever before. this would be the first one ever.
That's like saying forensic pathologists must all get off on mutilated corpses. The jury selection would be restricted by them needing to view such material, but there are still people who would be willing to for the sake of getting a just conviction. I'm not sure if this is obvious to you, but there are people whose jobs it is to investigate things like this as it is, and I don't think it's reasonable to assume that most of them are just pedos.
I’m mostly saying it in jest, my apologies.
soo... in your opinion anyone involved or interested in punishing or otherwise bringing to account perpetrators of CSA is by definition a pedophile themselves?
