If Stephen Hawking really was a pedophile... Fuck. I have less faith in humanity now. A lot of people praised for being "heroes" turn out to be vile. First Martin Luther King Jr. allegedly beating his wife, then Mother Teresa of Calcutta believing the sick must suffer like Jesus in the cross (meaning her patients were in severe pain), then Barack Obama throwing bombs on the Middle East and now Stephen Hawking being a pedophile?!
Anyone made into a public hero or villain by the western mainstream media is always a questionable person. The people simply serve the narrative and their real lives are of no particular meaning to those making the narrative.
Its worth remembering the story Jullian Assange tells of his discussions with mainstream journalists and their statements that if he cooperated with them that they would do the following:"We are going to put you on the moral high ground—so high that you’ll need an oxygen mask,” “You’ll be up there with Nelson Mandela and Mother Teresa. They won’t be able to arrest you. Nor can they shut down your Web site.” Of course the price for that was to join the "team" which he declined to do and paid the price for.
Don't buy into "celebrity". Don't believe that you know anything personally about people you don't actually know. Never take anything at face value a "journalist" says. MOST ESPECIALLY when every source and every journalist covers a story in exactly the same way.
