Hey Republicans, now that men were abused too, can we finally do something about it?

[–] pressedhams@lemmy.blahaj.zone 62 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Real men don’t let themselves get raped /s

[–] Numenor@lemmy.world 36 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If it's a legitimate rape, the male body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 4 points 2 weeks ago

I don't think the quote included a "try to".

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 33 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What were they wearing? This never would have happened if they were dressed like the church choir.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 20 points 2 weeks ago

That is exactly the outfit that attracts rapists.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

Ahh, the Roman view.

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 36 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Ah, so Peter Thiel was there

[–] favoredponcho@lemmy.zip 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yep, Peter Thiel, the gay Epstein

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm going to hazard a guess that Thiel is even worse.

he did want a private island of only young boys/men, but he failed to realize the cost/logistics of getting an island.

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca 25 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

This answers some questions, I had not heard of any rape of males before, yet Epstein palled around with plenty of gay swells, Peter Mandelson from the UK for instance, so you could be sure it happened.

Think of the blackmail value of those two foreign girls, strangled to death in fetish sex, then buried. On video, now held by Israel and who knows who else.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If you watch the press conferences of victims, there are some male victims in the backgrounds of a few of them. They haven't necessarily been drawing attention to the male victims, probably because of how Statesian society treats male survivors of rape, but who knows what will happen Wednesday.

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

I did see a picture of a male in the background of one picture, come to find out it was Virginia Guiffre's brother in that one.

[–] DaMummy@hilariouschaos.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

I did always wonder, how come Hollywood seemingly goes after boys, while the Epstein class goes after girls? What am I missing there?

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 2 weeks ago

I don't think Israel needs to have it for Trump to be their bitch. Israel brings in the $$$.

[–] Xerxos@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

Trump is probably bi. First the Bubba thing, and now he's frequently gushing about beautiful muscular men (one wrestler and his security detail). He might be one of the visitors of the ranch.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 13 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Thiel is likely one of the other predators there almost any attempt to report on thiel's behaviour either results in someone dying, defenestrated(HIS younger male sidepiece in 2024) or it never reaches the news more than half a day, or sued into the ground, plus Ms LINDSEY graham.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Roy Cohn was Trump's and Roger Stone's political mentor, and died of AIDS, always denying that he was gay. Those who knew him defend him by saying that he wasn't really gay, he just liked to sexually dominate young blonde men. That's not the same at all.

Okay.

It should be noted that Trump and Stone were both young blonde men when they knew Cohn.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Dude Trump is 100% bi. He was literally just talking about the big, strong law enforcement men that protected them at the WH correspondence dinner. He's constantly talking about how attractive men are. Its not even a question at this point.

[–] Karmanopoly@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

He has a thing for Kid Rock

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 7 points 2 weeks ago
[–] Elilol@fedinsfw.app 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

How about that Ex Marine that declared they used him?

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

That one's tough because it might be true, but he is also mentally ill. So things with him are...confused/confusing.

(Please note that I'm not saying we should not take him seriously.)

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I'm sure this isn't your intention but as a reminder please don't use mental illness as a reason to disregard or disrespect. I may have hallucinated once or twice, but it was my wife walking out of my shoe to tell me I was hallucinating so stop playing video games and go to bed. (funny thing we weren't even dating back then, but how do you tell the cute girl in the backup band you have a crush on that you saw her across town when you got your wisdom teeth pulled and yeah you know she was somewhere else. That's second date conversation.)

My point is that most of us mentally ill folk have a firm grip on reality even though we may not have a firm grip on sanity

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 0 points 2 weeks ago

Did you even read what I wrote?

This is rhetorical. You clearly either didn't or chose to disregard it.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

Ex Marine

Of course, what kind of a sick bastard wants to murder men women and children.
Fuck that cunt

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

"I thought he said RUG and DRAPE!" -- Trump, probably

[–] Gaja0@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Crazy how the files haven't just leaked. Iran needs to help us out here.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Iran has no problem with sex crimes. I don't see any difference between the two groups and if was just them fighting each other would be happy with them fighting until they were gone. Unfortunately a lot of innocents on both sides are the only real victims.

[–] Karmanopoly@lemmy.world -4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The men were drugged and raped?

Who's crazy enough to drug and rape Men?

[–] MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Donald Trump?

[–] absentbird@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Coleslaw4145@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I knew it. Whenever there's raping going on, somehow its always the rapists that are behind it all.
