Jeffrey Epstein and Associates

Yeah, that’s fair.

Come on man. Epstein supposedly had crates of videos and pictures on CDROMs. What happened with all that exactly? None of them ever showed any clients, unlucky?

Like you’re telling me law enforcement combed through Epstein’s personal effects in both Manhattan and Epstein Island and they just unfortunately didn’t find any incriminating material about anyone else?

These are legit questions, but they certainly don’t imply this:

Are you saying that you agree with that?

You missed my point. I was responding to the lie that no one bothered to look for the people that Gislaine was convicted of sex trafficking for. That is simply not true, and doesn’t have anything to do with whether there are other crimes to investigate.

This is the point exactly. It is appropriate to be concerned that very powerful people in Epstein’s orbit may have used their influence to avoid punishment for terrible crimes. But you need to have your antennae up for when habitual bullshit peddlers try to weaponize that very legitimate concern by fabricating a narrative that is “truth adjacent” and activates your anger. You end up in a moral and logical quicksand pit where you simultaneously fell like you are calling out an urgent need to seek out the hidden truth, but lo and behold you are also knee deep in some anti-journalist bullshit. Don’t fall for it.

Fair enough.

It is interesting how social justice outrage machine works at the mechanistic level though when it comes to this kind of stuff. Dudes whose “crime” was donating $10 to Kyle Rittenhouse’s defense fund are doxxed by the MSM, fired and shunned from polite society; while these guys get a free pass to go about their lives.

I’ve never seen the right wing outrage machine work to doxx their low profile enemies for completely minor shit while giving their own muckety-mucks a free pass to live their lives.

Another bullshit conservative head fake. The number of “social justice outrage” people, whatever the fuck that means, that want rich people to get away with their crimes is exactly zero. This is a trick conservatives use all the time, this notion that you aren’t allowed to care about or deal with Problem A until you first deal with More Important Problem B.

Doesn’t matter. It’s just a fake performative concern about Epstein’s rich friends getting away with stuff, for the sole purpose of undermining perfectly legitimate criticism of Kyle Rittenhouse and people that support his murderous ass.

Curious!

Look guys we need to leave Kyle Rittenhouse alone until we solve every other problem in the world first, that’s just common sense.

I also want to point out that the thing that was posted is utter horseshit. Show me the mainstream media doxing small contributors to Kyle Rittenhouse. Then show me the pedos who got the free pass, and the people (mainstream media also I guess?) giving it to them.

How dare you hurl such viscous accusations at someone that is Just Asking Questions? Shame on you, sir, you are what is wrong with America.

–I guess this is the point where we get segway into a semantic debate about the definition of doxxing.

Article is about a hack of a “Christian” donor site focused on Mike lindell and Rick Schroeder as major donors. It mentions two minor donors with government jobs (who weren’t fired) when it probably could have just included thousands of donors names, or even five of them, if it were out to doxx people.

Welcome to the site. Understand that this is a new ecosystem for you where almost every other poster is better informed (or not misinformed). Keep an open mind–you may broaden your horizons.

What brought you to where you are currently: fundamentalist Christianity, white supremacy/racial determinism, Anarcho capitalism, generalized anger?

But getting back on topic, I am not holding my breathe waiting for any hard hitting NBC expose on who participated in the Epstein child sex trafficking ring, or WTF happened with the alleged mountains of evidence of the crimes in question.

And that is the point.
