Hawking was on the, uh… "lists" before all this. Like, the flight logs iirc had him in it when they were released years ago, if not those then the black book.
It's a bad thing, although I think it's suspect that almost everything I see about this is dumb "memey" posts about Hawking. You know, of course people focus on the dead crippled genius and not the multiple living ex-presidents, princes, politicians, current presidents, sick rich fucks, etc. How convenient that people only talk about Hawking!
>>151490>>151475You know, looking over how this came up… it seems like it was a pretty awkward topical pivot, but I don't respect this thread much to begin with, so I'll entertain it.
I really do think this hyper-reactive use of "pedophile" is bizarre. I understand that, a decade-or-two-ago, it was just the go-to term for torches-and-pitchforks people, but not everybody has to be full retard

pedophilia what it is - like seeing people use it, not even just in relation to arbitrary regional laws, but even very

moral stance, like just being willfully ignorant of why a child who hasn't hit puberty yet
does not have the physical capacity to understand sex and consent is something they're proud of. It's obtuse and fucking stupid and it displays an incredible naivety about how prepubescent children process sexual abuse.
Likewise, it's bizarre how people act as though the label
needs to be applied to any case of rape committed against teenagers. Like, even if Epstein only trafficked underaged girls and raped them and had other guys rape them for power and profit… that's an incredibly heinous fucking crime whether or not it happened to pre-pubescent kids. You don't need
pedophilia to make it bad, he was a fucking evil rapist and the people who raped with him and
knew what
