He said it's an honor, can't you read?
I haven't looked into it. Is there any consensus on Epstein's death besides meme consensus? Has anything been released?
The consensus is that he didn't kill himself
Edit to expand a bit: he was in a prison cell under suicide watch & was filmed 24/7, probably also guarded 24/7. There's simply no way for someone to kill themselves in this situation. Also consider that many, many powerful people were implicated in his pedophile ring - enough that they easily had the ability to "get rid of him" to save themselves.
You can't try a dead man.
No trial, no testimonies, less evidence is made available to the public, everything adds up.
Yeah thats what i'd heard I just thought it was a bit to blatant.
Robert Evans, podcaster and Journalist that I have some respect for, concluded that it could be either true suicide which is also criminal negligence or conspiracy coverup, but the negligence/suicide has more evidence. The doctor saying it's a conspiracy coverup and is a known grifter.
It is incredibly blatant, but what is any one of us gonna do about it? There's so much blatant stuff going on - like the Boeing whistleblower that died by "suicide", or the Panama Papers. But we're simply powerless to change anything.
Just want to take the opportunity to encourage people to definitely click through the Panama Papers, if you're not yet fully beaten down by the unfairness and futility of the world. It's something.
I dont think Boeing killed whistleblowers. I thought people were just having fun and didnt actually believe that one. Most of the examples people mentioned were false retelling of the events.
Panama papers I remember being pretty fucking clear and blatant. Its a shame thats hardly ever brought up. Things have gotten so much worse.
As a part-time Uber driver in the state where it happened who gave a ride to one of the victim's subordinates (!), I disagree.
I would disagree regardless, because just look at the details of the story, but just so you know: at least some of the people who work there clearly and nervously believe he was targeted for trying to change things.
We don't conclusively know whether Boeing killed whistleblowers. The police ruled it as suicide, but if you trust them do you also trust that Epstein committed suicide?
Given that he didn't explicitly seem suicidal to others, didn't leave a note or give any other indication I feel it's more likely than not that he was killed.
Just a reminder that Epstein was killed when Trump was president. Trump's attorney general was William Barr. Barr's dad was very close friends with Epstein, gave Epstein his first job, and Barr's dad wrote pedo scifi as a hobby.
This is what pissed me off about it at the time. All the conspiracy subs and all right people kept putting up bill and Hillary Clinton killed epstein posts...
Trump and Barr were in power at the time and have much more egregious evidence of their interactions with epstein
And Barr choose the prison he was sent to, and visited the cell just a few days before he was killed.
Nope those dots connect too easily. Lizard people funded by Soros and the pope.
Turns out the pope is a lizard person. Boom.
In addition to that, Epsteins own brother testified in court that Donald Trump had visited the island multiple times.
Contrary to that, the Clintons have like 2 photos with him at the fundraising events he attended religiously (Epstein's front was as a venture capitalist and philanthropist). They also were offered and accepted using his private plane on one occasion alongside Alec Baldwin to fly to an AIDs relief mission in Africa. Never been to the island.
I can believe this - that Trump was paying Epstein for pedophile shit and Clinton never got involved. I also find it pretty easy to believe that despite never being involved with Epstein, Bill Clinton is a scumbag and a rapist, considering the numerous allegations against him:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Clinton_sexual_assault_and_misconduct_allegations
It's not proof per se, but with politicians these days, I believe it's most accurate to find them dirty and corrupt until proven otherwise via their legislative actions (to wit, I'm not holding my breath vis-à-vis 99% of Congress).
Clinton does seem like the kind of guy who would gladly "grab em by the pussy" if she was an adult, but Trump is obviously not so discerning.
You weren't kidding:
In the future, humans have formed an intergalactic empire ruled by aristocrats. During a time of war with the Plith, an empire of ant-like alien bug people, ambassador John Craig, a formerly Liberal Earth man in his 30s, is dispatched to the strategically important planet Kossar, a human colony that was settled by the Carlyle Society as a place of exile for political extremists and now is ruled by an oligarchical high council of seven nobles, each of whom is in charge of a different domain with its own traditions. Their boredom and absolute power have driven them to madness, to the point that Kossar's entry into the empire has been stymied by the Man-Inhabited Planets Treaty's clause (written by Craig) against alliances with slave owning societies, due to its practice of kidnapping humans to become illegal playthings of the galaxy's super-rich.
Craig, who now is campaigning to bring Kossar into the empire, had previously been to the planet when the passenger ship on which he was travelling on a return trip from the Betelgeuse Conference was captured by space pirates. While en route to Kassar, one of the pirates awakened Craig and the other prisoners to rape a 15-year-old virginal redheaded female captive in front of them; the rapist's fellow pirates later hear of this and dock his pay as punishment for spoiling her market value. Craig then spent two years as a slave of the beautiful, sensual, and sadistic Lady Morgan Sidney, the only female member of the oligarchy, with whom he became romantically involved. Together, they lived in her castle, ruling over and engaging in sexual relations with those under their dominion, including an enslaved teenager at a clinic used to breed enslaved people. When Craig stumbles on hints of an alien invasion, he realizes he must escape to save humanity.
Craig is depicted as undisturbed by Lady Morgan's sadism. When he is ordered to sexually assault the enslaved teenager, he enjoys his participation in the act.
"Ant-like alien bug people"
Alex Acosta was the prosecutor that gave Epstein a sweetheart deal the first time. Trump rewarded him by making him Secretary of Labor.
"Also, I just need $2,000 in apple gift cards so I can get a new iPhone and download my notes from the cloud. Someone stole my phone and wallet, but I have a big presentation tonight. I'll split the $1M speaker fee with you."
lol that last line
How old is this? Because Clinton hasn't been president for a while now. Also Epstein was killed much later, at least that's the official story unless it was a doppelganger all these years.
Still called president after they retire.
TIL
I was about to reply, but couldn't come up with anything but a demotivated sigh.
Instead, I'll leave you this comment as a written version of that very air leaving my body as a result of this hopefully sarcastic comment of yours.
Sure, I'm just joking in a shitpost community, sure 🤦♂️👼🎅🚵♀️ why not
No, if I believe you're stupid then that reinforces my myopic world view in which I am the only smart person on the internet.
Maybe I am stupid and maybe you really are the only smart person on the internet? Ever thought of that?
/s really helps. I didn't believe it either at first.
Sure /s
Well, I do often use it but sometimes I just don't care enough
If you need to use an /s then you're not doing it right.
Not necessarily. Many people struggle to read subtext, especially with no non-verbal communication and with people you don't know
Go ahead and check the community name.
Sorry, I guess I confused it for shitcomment
