      …I mean, you DO realize that 1988 has no significant historical ties to the nazis right? Pretty much everything after 1945 and you wouldn’t normally be assosiated with them.

      But you went out of your way to mention them. That would be like me using your bathroom and saying without prompt “I didn’t take a shit on your pillow”.

      And you saying “What?”

      And me saying “I’m just saying, that series of events of me dropping my pants, shitting on your pillow, and then using your blankets as toilet paper didn’t happen.”

      “Why are you telling me this?”

      “Because if later poop is found on your pillow, I just wanted to preemptively state that I didn’t do it.”

      “Did you shit on my pillow?”

      “No”

      “Then why are you saying this?”

      “Because I DIDN’T poop on your pillow. I thought I made that clear!”

    For Americans: In many ways, this was the British equivalent of what happened with Bill Cosby. Beloved entertainer/comedian known for entertaining both children and adults who was so revered that a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II he painted hung in Buckingham Palace turned out to have been a pedophile serial rapist.

    Pretty much the only big difference was that Harris made it even worse by preying on children.

    Doesn’t that title imply that children can consent? That’s maybe not the best message? Lol

      When it comes from a pedo it gives victim blaming vibes. Like “she could have said no!” As a reason for why it was okay.

    I am still waiting for the skeletons in Mr. Roger’s closet. Too pure. Inhuman. Nobody can be that genuine, right?
