    You say that while Russian bot networks promote claims that Zelensky (who came to power after Epstein was hung in a jail cell) is in the files, citing MAGA pizzagate twitter celebrities as their source. It’s not even funny, it’s actually sad that people fall for such stupid misdirections.

      IKR? Yes he was well connected to Mosad, he was well connected to power everywhere. Including Russia. The ammount of kvetching and pearl clutching over this. Trying to redirect all ire back at mosad dwarfs any of the actual coverage of Epstein’s ties to Russia. It’s just Streisanding the whole topic and only making the Russia ties seem even more important. After all. Mosad and their mouthpieces aren’t out there loudly denying and trying to redirect.

    It’s Western propaganda for local audiences. The rest of the world is well aware of “the aristocrats” of humanity, and they remember who bombed them as well.

    The reality of things is this: there’s nothing surprising about Weinstein, Diddy, Epstein, and anyone else in the West who is immoral and resourceful/powerful enough to fuck and/or kill to their heart’s desire. The founding fathers were the OG Epstein list! Thomas Jefferson raped the people he enslaved and had children with them he kept enslaved! American soldiers raped countless women (again, “women” because of their sex but many still just children) in Japan, Korea and Vietnam and then disowned the kids, and the women often came to America with their kids only to be abused again because of their race. Rape and dehumanisation are the two main strategies followed by the American army in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as their neocolonial proxy (Israel) in Palestine.

    With total freedom from legal accountability and enough resources to make it happen, many Westerners go into depravity because they have no moral background to stop them from climbing higher hedonistic highs (and they don’t believe in divine judgement, ofc). Weed wasn’t enough so you do cocaine, then ket, then crack, then fent… and consenting women isn’t enough so you go to non-consenting women, then men, then kids. It’s a fundamental part of Western ideology (and America is the West on crack), that might makes right and nothing is fundamentally true or false, right or wrong, which is why this will be accepted and your leaders being amoral murderous rapists (they always were, from the conception of the country) will be normalized again as it has been in the past and you’ll let this one go once more. This is why the files are not getting leaked but slowly released, to get people making memes and eventually become accustomed to it (“that’s just how it is, every county’s entire political apparatus is composed of pedophile rapists. And it has no bearing on their behaviour and decision making at all, ofc.” - it won’t be said that way but that’s what it’ll all amount to).
