One of UKIP's lead candidates for the European election said it is acceptable to rape "young boys" in one of his YouTube videos.

Police are investigating Carl Benjamin, better-known as YouTuber Sargon of Akkad, over the remarks.

In the video, from 2014, Benjamin said: "I can be quoted as saying you can fuck young boys. It’s actually not as controversial as you think.

"Depends on the child, doesn’t it? The ancient Greeks were pederasts. It was considered to be normal. It was mentoring."

Benjamin has previously said he "wouldn't even rape" Labour MP Jess Phillips and caused further outrage last week by stating he finds "racist jokes funny" after a video of him using racist language was uncovered. It has since been deleted.

A UKIP whistleblower passed a record of Benjamin's comments to his local police force in Wiltshire, The Mail on Sunday reports.

The document also includes screenshotted messages showing Benjamin asking for "something to really trigger" offence: "Do you have any underage porn or child porn? I will delete it fast so nobody gets in trouble."

Speaking to the Mail, Bejamin said: "It was an abstract conversation."
Main source is the Daily Mail unfortunately but I don't want to link that here, but essentially he made the same argument that Milo did in 2017. Sexual predators will always say their abuse is "mentoring" the abused.

it'd be pretty funny if his hubris of seeking public office turned out to be his undoing

Wait, hold up. I'm not sure I'm reading this right. Was he actually asking for child porn here?

It's like that South Park episode where Cartman faked Tourette syndrome. After a while of spoutting off whatever insane BS they want and not only facing no punishment but being straight-up rewarded, these fuckos just lose their shitfilters completely and let the darkest, vilest thoughts and predilections slip without thinking about the potential consequences.

My man thinks the five second rule applies to doing crimes

"Do you have any CP?" --> "It was an abstract conversation"
It was an abstract hypothetical, but also I am promising to delete it really quickly

"Do you have any drugs? I will consume them fast so nobody gets in trouble."
Me having an abstract conversation with a dealer.

How predictable that this "I use the name of an ancient figure and also like far right ideals" shitbag would also argue "well the Greeks liked underaged sex so..."

Currently the batting average for these assholes is 1.000.

I celebrated the moment hemade the jump to politics, because it was gonna end up this way.
Pretty much, anyone with a huge boner for ancient history AND is a far right asshole has skeletons in the closet. You could produce a venn diagram of people who are far right ancient history aficionados and people who wish they could do things that people before the birth of Christ could do.

I bet he’s really into thousand year old dragons.

Isn’t asking for child porn a crime? That seems like a bigger deal.

Not at all surprised.

"For trigger purposes" is a new one.

"The pedo stuff is just the marketplace of ideas. I am very intelligent."

Good to know he thinks "People being revolted and repulsed by CP" is "triggering" like he's just trolling people on fucking youtube comments or something. As if it's not you know, completely the normal human reaction to be disgusted by such a thing.

Or worse, that he thinks the worst kinds of illegal material is to be used as some kind of tool for "trolling".

That's what attempted normalization looks like.

I'm imagining some sort of horrible Rube Goldberg device which Sargon inserts child porn into, causing a long series of nonsensical silly mechanisms to activate which eventually lead to one of those drinking birds to hitting the button that sends an offensive tweet. That's the only way I can see this triggering thing happening and Sargon not possessing and distributing child porn in the process.

Wait. Do they not know of the clips of him on that podcast saying "you guys are acting like a bunch of n***ers"? I feel like his career should've been a one and done because that podcast exists
