minus-squareZombie@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·5 days agoBalls is not the correct description for resigning in shame after being publicly outed as a paedophile…
minus-squareMalReynolds@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 days agoIt is however refreshing to see any politician anywhere resign for gross misbehavior. Shame is all to much a thing of the past for these bastards.
minus-squarepeopleproblems@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 days agoI compare it to the US. They simply don’t care here, and this guy actually feels shame. Makes him more human than our regime .
minus-squarecalcopiritus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 days agoThey are not resigning because they are ashamed of being pedophiles. They are resigning because they were caught being pedophiles. If they were ashamed they would’ve resigned before the Epstein files were released.
minus-squarepeopleproblems@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 days agoSee that’s the part I don’t agree with. If it wasn’t shame, there really aren’t any consequences if he doesn’t resign, other than losing his next election. That won’t happen in the US. The regime here is incapable of shame.
