In 2020, the online news organization The Intercept revealed that HRW’s then-Executive Director, Ken Roth, accepted a $470,000 donation from a Saudi billionaire based on the condition that HRW would not use the money to protect the rights of the persecuted LGBTQ-plus community in the Middle East. 

Roth was compelled to return the donation after The Intercept report.

      Yep. That’s what I thought. Can’t admit you’re wrong, can’t admit you lied.

        FfS. You were completely right about Trump, which has nothing to do with the subject of this string. I was wrong about that minor ussue. You were wrong about the rest. Feel better now? Then get out of my sight.

          That’s one. Now are you going to admit you lied when you suggested you were done talking to me?

            I’ve tried to say goodbye to you several times and you hang around like a psycho girlfriend. If that amuses you, perhaps some professional help is needed.

              Similar to before, insulting me won’t make you less of a liar.

              Also, I don’t have to stop talking to you just because you want me to. You, however, can stop replying any time you like. That you don’t do it suggests that maybe you should think about what you just accused me of.
