Julia Baird on 'the ugly coziness of patriarchy & .... the impunity of the privileged.'

Overwhelmingly the evidence suggests that for these men & seemingly for all those around them, treating vulnerable girls as disposable objects was pretty much normal. Access is an expected perk of success.

This is not a bad apple story. It's a culture.

Women have been naming this for years. Funny how our reports don't count.

X offices raided in France as UK opens fresh investigation into Grok

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ce3ex92557jo

Looks like we are **finally** starting to see tough action against big tech firms, Problem is, fines are like pocket change to these people, given the charges.

"The French offices of Elon Musk's X have been raided by the Paris prosecutor's cyber-crime unit, as part of an investigation into suspected offences including unlawful data extraction and complicity in the possession of child pornography." cite bbc website above. 3/2/2026

Perhaps people should be placed on the UK and other sex offenders register(s) (and child barred lists) that would do far more damage to them, their reputation than anything else they are associated with.

They have had years to get their act together, failed, then created grok and we got more of the same.

Lets give them HELL

@fabio I think it’s time to have a list of Zionist, pro-genocide Mastodon servers on Gaza Verified, just like we have a list of servers friendly to Palestinians suffering through genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and settler colonialism so our friends in Gaza – and anyone with even a sliver of a conscience – can know which parts of the fediverse to avoid.

I’ll add that to my endless todo list, then, shall I?
