Maybe stop using his platform then? It’s not that complicated.

In 2025, Alexandrovich was arrested along with seven others in Nevada as part of a sting operation targeting child sex predators.[1] He was charged with attempting to lure a child for a sex act, a felony which carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.[12] He was granted a $10,000 bail and subsequently allowed to return to Israel despite awaiting trial and his lack of diplomatic immunity.[9][13][14][15] He returned to Israel and was placed on leave from the directorate. He had been attending the Black Hat computer security conference.[9][12]

Well summarized. We'll see if he shows up in court.

The fact that there is a total media blackout on this news is as big a story as watergate

“GOP” just stands for “group of pedophiles” and all the evidence clearly shows that I’m right

Who gives a shit what Shaun King says. Fucking scammer

[–] KnitWit@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, I’m not saying I don’t believe that it may be happening. But I definitely don’t believe what he has to say on anything.

[–] YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH 10 points 1 month ago

Exactly. It is very believable. If it was coming from someone credible, like Robert Evans of Behind the Bastards, I would immediately believe it. But with King I think it is believable but he has a history of lying for profit so /shrug.

Rich pedos gotta stick together!

How come people are okay with this? Am I missing something? Are we the bad people? Is it wrong to feel like shit when you see that?

[–] reallykindasorta@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe if you start ignoring your own eyes, ears, and faculty of reason you’ll feel better!

[–] rottenmummy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Sometimes, I wish I was that level of dumb that doesn't feel a thing or a single cell organism, that also works

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Is there a decentralized twitter clone that runs on the Tor network?

[–] Lembot_0004@discuss.online -3 points 1 month ago

Personally? Wow.
