It's just safe to assume nearly any rich millionaire or billionaire is in the files. Musk, was a given. The sissy slapfight between a self-righteous zealot and a convicted fascist resumes.

Careful you'll draw the ire of the "my favorite mega rich celebrity isn't bad" folks.
I still think it's worth pointing out that the difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is about a billion dollars.
Have you used Lemmy before today? I am unaware of any noticeable techbro simping on this platform. In fact nearly everyone hates everyone here lol
So the alliance within the Guardians Of Pedophiles is cracking? That’s super rad.
I know it was cliche to post Epstein distraction memes, but this is why. It’s gonna sweep the leg of the oligarchs. Or it better, anyway. I’m not exactly holding my breath.
Panama Papers would like a word with you.
Trump is so dumb he doesn’t see how bad that makes him look. Even if he wasn’t in the files, all the people surrounding you are? Fucking idiot. I just hope he sundowns one day and says on national tv how much he loved raping all those kids
They edited him out and put some people in. Couldn't this be the case? There is never going to be an unedited list and I think the strategy is to fuck around with it until no one believes it anymore or people pick out what they want to believe or not.
They muddied the waters, mission accomplished.
Now I'm even more concerned about Elon's plan to confine his various partners and offspring to The Compound.
Yikes. I didn’t even want to read that article.
EDIT: The headline alone is enough. Did not read it.
I'm not reading it but unfortunately I have an imagination.
If you know any of the history of what Mormons like to do then no imagination needed.
Just to be clear, I did not read it.
Is he gonna be like that guy from Game of Thrones that lived with his daughter-wives and would put out in the snow any baby boys?
I thought overpopulation was a bigger issue than declining birth rates
It is, but overpopulation means the dregs fight each other. Under population or declining birth rates means the populace has more power. The elites can't have that.
I hope these fucks all have a policy of mutually assured destruction between them
That was the whole point. Powerful people were worried that Epstein would talk, so he was suicided.
Let the Xhitter wars begin.
Wait, that's already been happening for a long time.
That was all for show.
Musk fucked kids. His dad fucked his stepdaughter, so it’s probably good he only has boys (biological) or he’d be fucking his kids.
Which is why he accused that guy of being a pedo out of nowhere years ago, and why he told us Trump was in the Epstein files. Don't get me wrong trump is obviously a pedophile too, but the fact that Musk is so trigger happy on that particular accusation leads me to zero surprise that he's in those files too
He has two daughters. One is trans the other is the sister of his human shield X AE A-ii
Isn't the obvious implication regarding the stuff about his dad, that he too (Elon that is), might also be a victim?
What makes you think the boys are safe?
House Democrats have released the new documents. Trump had nothing to do with releasing the files.
Was gonna say, where tf does this headline even come from?
That island was probably mostly the 3 commas club.
Damn, Russ Hanneman too?
Man, this is like the mutually assured destruction around firing nukes. Elon is definitely going to drop trump in it now.
He already did
and NOTHING happened lol. Americans are toast.
Ain't nobody as big an issue in the files as the orange pedo-in-chief
I suggest listening to this podcast... If you intrigued in crime, politics, and the role of Epstein. https://youtu.be/EwejUh3m9Fg
I remember when podcasts weren't on video. I was just thinking the other day about how weird it is that so many started recording video and yet they're still called podcasts.
We also all stopped listening to them on our iPods. Which is where the name originally came from :p
And there was a perfectly fine term, vodcast, for video podcasts, but for fuck knows what reason people just decided no. I hate it, actually. In my mind, a podcast is for listening, not watching.
Lock this Pedo up!
I haven't heard elon in the rumors before but I wouldn't doubt he was around either.
Honestly, based on my life experience I just assume men by default are attracted to teenage children. Especially men with power or none.
Let's assume that's true, I think most men still would have enough morals, empathy and self control to not act on it and exploit teenagers.
Billionaire types are billionaires because they don't mind exploiting the planet, their employees, the law and so on. I think it's unlikely that they accidentally became a billionaire just because they're so nice and empathetic.
Yes thank you. I agree with this, I just posted a knee jerk reaction. I don't literally think all men are pedophiles. I've met so many though that Yeah I won't be shocked at all if some billionaire is another flavor of scum than what it took to be a billionaire like you said.
I'm sorry that the men in your life have made you feel that way about my entire gender. We're not all child rapists, I can assure you.
For what it's worth, when I was 23 I broke up with my 18 year old girlfriend because the difference in maturity levels made me uncomfortable.
My wife is actually still 5 years younger than me (she was in her late 20s when we met), but she's definitely more mature than I am. Hell, her friends are all older than me.
And not once have I ever done anything that could remotely be interpreted as pressuring her into sex. Hell, our relationship has kinda suffered because I won't try to initiate sex if I know she's feeling bad, but she's chronically sick so she's always feeling bad.
I'm really sorry I don't mean I go around assuming every (or any) man is a pedophile or capable of it.
Just my lived experience is plenty of "normal" men are unsafe in some way, so when I see any signs I don't brush them off. And the signs aren't basic "likes and get along with children" double standard stuff. I'm not bristling at dad's on playgrounds or uncles with good relationships.
And a 5 year age difference between adults is insignificant. You shouldn't feel any need to defend it
Thank you, and I appreciate you saying it's not all men. It's just hard being a cis white male who has only ever advocated for the rights of those who have less agency than me.
Like, I totally get why most people think the worst of me. I'm a tall, heavily muscled, white male with tattoos. I know that I'm scary just by existing, and it really sucks because I'm the friendliest guy you'll ever meet.
But I'm the guy who would volunteer on college campuses to walk women home so they feel safe. Like, insisting you take picture of me with my ID so you can send it to a friend to make sure you get home ok.
It really sucks you feel that way just existing. I mean that genuinely, and I think you really are touching on something here.
Because women have a similar problem where they are viewed as sexual conquests or objects to be won- just for existing. So you're a little sensitive about noticing if someone sees you as a bad person, and I might be more sensitive on if someone sees me as an object not a person. It really is two sides of the same coin, and we all have more in common with eachother than we have differences.
I am am old lady though and I assure you that your insecurities about women feeling unsafe around you is more about your awareness and not necessarily reality. Frankly harassment and all that crap is just background noise for women IRL anyway so a chill dude who I have a normal interaction with isn't gonna register on my radar regardless of how he looks. I pay way more attention to body language and tone. Thanks for being a good friend to women.
Anyway this all got way off topic and what I originally meant was I just am not surprised men who are PoS in other aspects are into teens and are horrible there too.
I appreciate your words. It really does suck to feel like the enemy just to exist as a white male despite wanting to literally fight those who would deny women their rights.
But I'm 6'3 and 200lb lean, so I know I'm in the running for "men you should be concerned about" even though literally no woman on earth needs to fear me. I've never even asked my wife for a hand job in the 10 years so I've known her.
1: You don't need to give that many details about your private life.
2: The point is that it's not about you. Your height and shape don't matter that much. There are enough "bad apples" among men that women simply must presume anyone they don't know is a potential threat. From tiny twigs to tall bears.
It sucks to be perceived as a potential threat when you know for a fact that you are not a threat to anyone, but there are enough threats out there that it is perfectly justified to be seen that way.
I don't know if it's the autism in me or what, but any time I noticed someone was threatened by my presence, my first instinct was just to feel sorry for them - not for myself. And then I try to go away or give them distance or something else to give them peace of mind. What I see in comments like yours and many others around the internet is that a lot of men react the other way around: being annoyed to be perceived unfairly even though that is nothing compared to the other person who is potentially even fearing for their life.
But anyway, at the end of the day the problem is still the same: if the world was safer for women, it would also be better for the men who don't want to be seen as enemy.
