Grundulum posted:I don't think it's that large a fraction of the general population, but rather a surprisingly large fraction of the ruling class of England. I wonder how much of it is attributable to the fact that most of the people in question (a) are men, and (b) come from the English upper class. British aristocracy (at least historically) sent their children to boarding schools, at least some of which were all-male. Spending one's prepubescent and pubescent years in the almost exclusive company of boys seems like it could have unintended consequences. Its not just the English elite raping kids. Its a problem everywhere as demonstrated by Australia currently doing a massive investigation, Denmark having done one in the past and others mentioned upthread.

If they be gotten away with dying first I'd prefer seeing their remains disinterred and thrown into the Thames, their grave markers and slabs ground into dust and mixed into porcelain to make toilets for council housing.

That sort of systematic abuse spoken of here should be punished by getting stripped naked, package cut of and left in the forest to die alone and afraid. This punishment should be only for people who have abused their power and position in society.

Why should people in council housing suffer? You'll be suggesting making soap next. With our oh-so-good justice system, I'd be happy to see these people locked away where they can't do any more damage, forever.

I propose destruction of legacy by the creation of a body of folklore which will ensure that knowledge of the Eton/Westminster crowd's predilections will live on through proverbs and myths, being passed from generation to generation in a manner which will survive even societal or civilization collapse.

A posh guy I know got a call from the Police today, his old "house master" from his fancy private school had set up hidden cameras all around the house and has been trading photos and videos of all the boys on the internet. It's freaked him out. He, and every other male student, are apparently going to be suing the school.

We sort of had them at my comprehensive, it was basically just some stupid thing where you get points for good behavior and the arbitrary quartile of the year that gets the most at the end of the year gets a Good Job from the teachers and laughed at by the other students. Each house had a teacher in charge of it which meant basically nothing except they kept their bit of the board updated. Christ only knows what the job entails in a boarding school though.

Political Whores posted:So Harry Potter lied to us and Gryffindor were actually the loser teacher's pets Technically we already did that, and it's why we have a Parliament. But then we decided that being a republic was poo poo so we sort of worked out a time share with the monarchy, they don't do any ruling and we don't chop their heads off. Not sure how you would do the rallying cry for the revolution when you're already a functional republic, given that constitutional monarchy means that people dislike both the monarchy and the elected officials as much as each other.

The monarch couldn't do much if they were governing minded, they have no official power as far as I know other than opening parliament and I think signing each government into office. Oh and appointing lords. I mean technically they have all the power because the executive power of the government is granted by the monarch, but they aren't supposed to do anything with it. The UK is technically a constitutional monarchy, operates like a republic, and practically has an upper house composed of a mixture of retired MPs who were granted seats for their service, people who paid a lot of money to the prime minister to be in the upper house, people whose families have always been part of the upper house, people who are bishops of several major Anglican churches, and people that the prime minister just likes and wants to put into the house. Technically though none of this is really written down, it just happens. We don't really have a binding constitution over here. I'm not sure what the proper word for that system is, though clusterfuck is certainly descriptive. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Apr 15, 2015 |
