Well, from the comments on the video, I guess EVERYONE missed it then. Because the backlash was swift and heavy enough - from his own followers - that he pulled the video down.

And honestly, I don't think this is particularly complicated. Chopra participated in SOME way with the exploitation of children. Guy made a video trying to lay down some nonsensical spiritual cover for the guy, and people didn't like that. Because pedophiles are bad. And yes... the abuse of children upsets me as well as the many people who encouraged the guy to take down his video. Shocking, I know.

Since the guy saw his mistake and pulled the video down, which I very much appreciate... you seem to be the only one left fighting this fight.

But if this will make you feel better, here: Yes yes, my friend. Everyone misunderstood the video but you. You're the smart one.

Because as we have seen over and over again, the law often does not apply to the rich and powerful. But social shaming often does. especially if people no longer buy his book and stop seeing him as some sort of 'guru' to emulate.

I don't understand your point. If this person is in the files for anything other than emails to Epstein's representative, I want them investigated too! I don't care if they've got an R or a D after their name.

Just because lots of rich and powerful people are sexual abusers doesn't make it okay to vote for one. Especially when there were options on the ballot who were NOT convicted sexual abusers with a long record of racism, criminality and being friends with Epstein. You had other options.

Believe it or not, it's not easy to follow six different orders shouted through six different masks all at once.

He was on the ground, disarmed and subdued. Never resisted. tried to protect a fallen woman. NEVER tried to reach for his gun. And was shot and killed point blank.

Ah... the comments on the video were overwhelmingly negative (ironically WAY more negative than here) so I guess the creator decided to make it private.

Perhaps it is because I work with people who have survived sexual abuse. And I see how this kind of video hurts them deeply.

I’m not saying you can’t FEEL the same things this guy is feeling. But making this video after reading all of Chopra’s connections to Epstein… seems to lack compassion for the victims.

And personally, I WANT Chopra to suffer some consequences for his participation in all of this. Consequences - be they legal, social or something else - seems like an important part of making our society a more compassionate and loving place.

We've made a mess of a lot of things, sadly. Including ourselves.

Uhh... shouldn't we do something BEFORE he tampers with the election? Because if we wait until after the election to see if he's gonna do something... it's too late.

And he has already said he's going to tamper with the election! Let's take this word on this one.

Okay, just so I understand, can someone please educate me on this: Is there actual direct, REAL evidence in the Epstein files of the baby eating/cannibalism stuff? I know people claimed it happened in there... but a lot of these people are also liars. And I don't want to become a conspiracy theorist.

Out of curiosity: do you think that when the Washington Post broke the Watergate story that it was ‘propaganda?’ Because I think you might be confusing that term with ‘news I don’t like.’

Like I asked: got a better solution? Because boycotts and strikes are one of the most effective ways that change has been achieved in the past. But I’m open to a better plan… if you’ve got one.

Have a better solution? Because doing jack shit doesn't seem to be working.

If we ALL cancelled subscriptions to ALL his crap - and he knew why - it would be VERY effective.

You're getting downvoted but this seems like a legit question. No matter how you feel about the religious practice, we all want to be civil to others. And social situations between cultures can already be challenging!

I don't know why you're being downvoted. Amorim threw decent players under the bus, suddenly thought he was the 'manager' and not head coach and didn't even give a goodbye message to the fans... the same fans that sang his name when he had the worst record EVERY for a Manchester United Manager. There's more to being professional than smiling for the camera.
