Definitely not just you.
Andrew is undoubtedly a dirty old pervert, but people are only seeing a 'grope' because it's a more exciting/provocative outcome than just a father trying to comfort his grieving daughter.
If this had been Beatrice, Anne, William or just about any other member of the family, there would have been not an eyelid blinked at this*. It's all very Daily Mail.
Or maybe it just doesn't seem like such a big deal in comparison to the Ashley Biden diary leak.
*should probably clarify that I mean if one of them had done the 'groping', not if one of them had been allegedly groped by randy Andy...

The weirdest part of that story is how little press attention it’s getting. And it’s a fucking weird story.

Yeah, there is something odd about it.
The lack of press attention and the manner in which it was discovered; absolutely ripe for conspiracy speculation.

i think that there's not much there is the reason, at least against old Joe. That the daughter was in rehab and was fucked up was public knowledge
compared to her other allegations that seem to suggest she was molested by the neighbours, "probably not appropriate" at being naked with her dad is kind of pissweak. My 11 year old would probably say the same thing when I wander around the house looking for my underpants. If the mainstream press, even fox news, wanted to try and make it more of it than it is, than it would also mean talking about a young girls uncorroborated private sexual abuse confessions unrelated to joe, and that's a fucking minefield for them

Good point
"Probably not appropriate" is a pretty mild phrase if recalling abuse.
I was surprised the GOP nutters hadn't publicised it as they don't usually care about legalities until afterwards. Admittedly, if most press won't touch it the'd be only shouting in their own echo chambers.

Agreed, there are a lot of variables as to how inappropriate it actually was.
It's probably not that inappropriate if your child is four or five years old (assuming you're not an actual beast). Becomes exponentially less appropriate as your child ages, though.
I mean, technically, it's only inappropriate if it's made inappropriate. But societal norms gonna societal norm.
That being said, like the Andrew groping debacle, it's open to a huge amount of interpretation. However, I think it's fair to say that if this was Ivanka's diary, the revelations would be plastered absolutely everywhere and are only being muted somewhat due to the fact that Biden isn't regarded as a pantomime villain by the majority and I suspect that widely publishing this stuff would only help to bolster the red team - which isn't really in anybody's best interests. Particularly at the moment.
There really is a serious 'Succession' vibe coming from the Biden camp, mind. Although, I suppose you could say that about any of those dynasties.

Serious question:
Do you think they'd let the cadaver on public display for five days in Westminster hall in this weather? I reckon it's an empty box, Brenda is in a fridge in buck house.

Apparently royals get lead-lined coffins.
So if you were wondering why they needed eight pall-bearers it's probably so there's less chance of them dropping the thing.

I was thinking about this exact scenario on my way home from work yesterday.
She'd be the ultimate 'Patient Zero'.
Who's going to be Mr. Bigbaws and first to take a swing at the Queen's re-animated corpse?
Should you allow Ma'am to bite you if she wishes?
How long will you spend in prison for lopping off Ma'am's head?
What with the tens of thousands of peasants all lining up to take a look at her corpsebox, the outbreak would take hold of the UK in mere hours.
Speaking of which. Pretty sure that Coronavirus hasn't gone away. I suppose the media just don't want to bring up how potentially devastating it might be from a public health standpoint to have so many people from different parts of the world crammed so tightly into such a small area. Might detract from the narrative a bit.

It's definitely an empty casket.
Even if the likelihood of somebody successfully pulling off a heist is infinitesimally small, can you imagine how fucking mental the repercussions would be?
How much would the Queen sell for on the black market?
What happens when the video of a masked Chinese billionaire fucking her lifeless husk gets released to the baying masses?
The Monarchy is overwhelmingly responsible for England's identity - on an international level at least. The symbolism would be crushing.
