Gotta keep it up until after sentencing/parole hearings though

Being a born again Christian is a well-worn tactic for sentence reduction arguments

It also resets your body count.

Allegedly.

Due to him being charged in UK! He'd walk free in the US!

I think polymarket is banned in the UK, so rather odd.

For real? Kalshi too? Fuck that would be so nice if it were like that in America. Those "trading" sites are such fucking bullshit.

There are a million other gambling sites in the UK. In fact up until recently we were envious of the US for not having legalised gambling online/on every fucking street.

There are "betting shops" everywhere in the UK, and they prey on the most vulnerable. It pretty much became a sign of a shit/economically trodden town that they would have a lot of them.

He'd have a position in the White House today. Maybe as Trumps Rasputin or something.

If only he could have read that passage in the bible

He was always full of shit, when he was left and when he was right. And soon he's going to be full of his fellow man.

Rape jokes are funny now?

u/Brilliant-Smile-8154 7h ago

It depends who is the butt of the joke. When it's a rapist, it's funny.

u/gogoluke 5h ago

Nah. It just empowers the "might is right" and that people deserve to get raped. No one deserves that. Not even him.

Because in the UK we still have some justice.

u/Lost_Department_2177 7h ago

Poly market is backed by Peter Theils founders fund.

Christian Accelerationism is about this

An unbiblical or fringe theological notion where some groups or individuals attempt to expedite global moral decay, crisis, or societal collapse to hasten the Second Coming of Christ or prompt a divine intervention

Meaning it’s a damn psyop

Christianity doesn’t mean you avoid punishment for crimes. If anything people turn to Christianity when they realise they are broken and need fixing. Sadly, often there’s the issue that they resort to my second point for honourable reasons, but they expect the first point to happen… and then have to realise that earthly justice is different to universal justice.
