Don't get me wrong, Sheeran is a weak little bitch that's putting his image ahead of genocide victims, but the focus really should be on Kraft and his buddies. Zionists aren't even trying to win the debate anymore, just trying to use their money and influence to silence dissent.

Now I need to make a meme of Ed sheeran eating macaroni and cheese dressed like a racecar driver covered in endorsement patches (the endorsements are all from famous awful Kraft products)

[–] Freeposity@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

It looks more like he's sacrificing his image for money.

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 48 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Well good thing that Coward Sheeran was "thinking about the children"!

[–] ccunning@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Exposing children to radical ideas like “don’t murder children” is a bridge too far.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

yes, not slaughtering or starving innocent women and children is somehow a very complicated issue for Sheeran. His poor little head hurts. Sheeran is a 35 year old man.

“There is a reason I do not use my professional platform for politics – my audience includes young people, often children, of all backgrounds.

Kraft couldn't have Macklemore, but still wanted that audience.

At this point, when it comes to celebrities and the filthy rich and even Harvard, the list for "Not in the Epstein files" would be a much shorter list.

Twenty years of this, the biggest scandal of our lifetime, and we have only scratched the surface.

... and the UK is neck deep in it, too. I'll probably be dead before they are released.

… and the UK is neck deep in it, too.

The UK is at least trying and convicting those UK citizens tied to Epstein crimes. Here in the USA we elect them to the highest office in the land, then allow them to use the entirety of the US Justice system to shield themselves from the evidence and consequences of their heinous actions.

Regrettably we're just as bad if not worse than you for the establishment harbouring rapist filth, go and look up the Jimmy Savile case if you want to beg for that merciful asteroid.

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 0 points 1 month ago

Are we? What actually happened to Andrew and Mandelson? And didn't the government say they weren't going to investigate the files?

[–] 13igTyme@piefed.social 6 points 1 month ago

Everyone alive today will be dead before they're released.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Horny, rich degenerates everywhere, regardless of nation but big in america.

[–] lemmylump@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

Someone put Epstein's face on this fucking logo, cause Kraft's NFL team is now known as The New England Pedophiles.

[–] Nonprophet@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

That from when he got busted at the Rub n Tug in West Palm???

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Epstein fiies, eh? Tell us more!

[–] rayyy@piefed.social 4 points 1 month ago

Remember the Panama papers? Same, same.

[–] vala@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He looks like he's in the Epstein files tbh

[–] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

lol Epstein's advice was to get a lawyer to get the charges dismissed? Have I got that right?

Because that's why all these depraved rich fuckers liked Jeff right? Because he gave such good advice and was so smart. Not because he had an army child slaves upon which they could enact their most depraved fantasies.

[–] gigaqps@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Have I got that right?

No. Epstein offered up the lawyer that defended him from sex related charges, because Kraft was facing sex related charges of his own.

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

When you go to an attorney, (unless it's a simple trust or estate) you want someone who practices that specialty. I wouldn't use a contract lawyer for crim defense.

Epstein didn't just offer up a lawyer, he offered up the lawyer for being credibly charged with sex crimes

[–] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

A lawyer that specialises in defending rapists. I guess such a thing would exist wouldn't it.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Oh, that's entirely much more worse.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

He was held for sex trafficking charges in Florida but was released because it was a mistake and not because he's a billionaire who could use lawyers and bribes to make the problem go away.

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

At this point I think it's safe to assume any politician or billionaire is in the files, unless they're too young or proven otherwise.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I kinda wish Macklemore would talk more about this. If Kraft is going to accuse people of "antisemitism", why not talk about his actual history?

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean that does appear to be the only correspondence with Epstien is him reaching out to convince him to use his lawyer, which isn't great but isn't that damning.

However...

The documents say Kraft arrived at the Orchids of Asia Day Spa in a chauffeured 2015 blue Bentley at 11 a.m. on Jan. 20. He was videotaped receiving oral and manual sex from a woman at the spa in Jupiter. Officials say he gave her a $100 bill and another bill before leaving at 11:15 a.m.

Remember that this is the man of high Republican moral standing, suppressing other's speech he doesn't like because of his high level of Republican morality.

[–] gigaqps@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

the only correspondence with Epstien

The only currently released correspondence is Epstein referring to having had otherwise undocumented conversations with Kraft on the topic of how to beat sex related charges.

[–] o0evillusion0o@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Ah yes, the old TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES (TM) That we've all forgotten about because of all the other shit that's going on.

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

~~On the plus side Kraft Foods is quite an easy one to boycott, because there's nothing they make that you can't get better versions of anyway.~~ ignore this I received bad information from duckduckgo's stupid ass summary page

[–] decolo@piefed.social 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I saw someone else say that he's not related to kraft foods, and has lots of paper packaging companies

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Oh FFS, fucking AI summaries fucked me again. God I hate the future. I didn't even register that it was AI because it sits where the Wikipedia previews used to sit back in the day.

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And another example of why we should never use AI summaries.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

Literally just a script that presented the first paragraph of the Wikipedia page as-is would be infinitely better.
