I completely understand why J Saville's name is brought up by the media when they talk about sexual harassment and abuse.
However, I wish they would just not use his photograph. I don't want to see his creepy face. He probably would love that he is still being seen after his death.
Nobody needs to see his face. Those of us old enough will remember and younger people just don't need to know.
I'd like to just eradicate him entirely but realise that history can be uncomfortable and he is part of a very dark and vile narrative that cannot be ignored. His face though? Nobody needs to see it. Yuck.

Hindley?

Che Guevara? Idiots wearing g his t shirt or have his poster on their wall have no idea how evil he was but it's their right to ear or display his image.

Joseph Stalin?

Also, I'd like to add how ironic it is that you want him forgotten yet create a thread about him and reminded us all about his horrific crimes and appearance.
