the jeffrey epstein memorial poll and conspiracy-mongering thread

apparently said pathologist is not particularly reliable. still, noteworthy that the NYT is going back to the well.

in other news HBO is moving ahead with an Epstein miniseries by Adam McKay which is maybe the single worst idea I've heard all year

First Prince Philip offs Diana, now Jeffrey Epstein.

alright lyndon larouche

He's got some strength in those bony hands though.

Can't wait for this to become Serial S4

didn't we hear about this from this pathologist some time ago? the coverage of this is so weird. and whatever happened to ghislane, we're just gonna settle on a doctored photo of her at an in-n-out burger as enough here?

She’s apparently in Brazil with Jean Luc Brunel.

that’s it, the stranglers are cancelled

too soon

I think he became a lizard

Welp!

Jeffrey Epstein FBI File Vault just dropped. Enjoy! https://t.co/dTMUj88bgS

literally just came here to post that

incredible

I, too, am whooping and hollering

the obsession with this conspiracy among the right wing is unbelivable to me. I peek in on my insane trump loving family's FB feeds and they're still posting about this every day.

Lefties are too

For diff reasons

The funny/sad part is that a good chunk of these people think Trump is secretly fighting the pedo cabal. Real pudding-brain shit

I mean, everyone thinking he was whacked thinks it was to keep him silent about sexual exploitation and the dirt he’d have on some sort of cabal

whether he was also a cia asset, not sure if that’s a universally gossiped-about part

the cia has been involved in so much deeply shady, stupid shit that practically anything you accuse them of doing will have an air of probability. some of their confirmed operations have been completely Poe's Law stuff, beyond self-parody.

"epstein didn't kill himself" gonna be the new baba booey huh

More like the "how is babby formed"

how is class solidarity formed

So this just happened live on @MSNBC at the Alabama - LSU game. 😂

Reporter: Why do you like the President so much and what policies stand out to you?

I appreciate how this is becoming a new type of rickroll.

a plurality of ilxors think he was murdered. a clear majority thinks he either was murdered, or was given the means to kill himself.

ILXORS! not a man on the street thing. the cream of the crop.

folks

the only way this shit cld get shadier is if there were video of a shadowy figure creeping away from the scene

that clip is pretty good

what is shadier than the death is that "sweetheart" deal he got in 08, when he was basically allowed to go home from prison during the day and molest people. and the prosecutor (acosta) said he was told "epstein belongs to intelligence."

it seems absurd we won't get to the bottom of this, when there is so much public awareness

the whole thing cldnt be more insanely "you have got to be joking me"

has bernie promised to investigate this shit yet

the prosecutor (acosta) said he was told "epstein belongs to intelligence."

holy shit

oh you didn't know this?

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/i-was-told-epstein-belonged-to-intelligence-and-to-leave-it-alone

really insane

huh, somehow i missed that -- and this came out even before his death. i don't even know what to make of that.

i don't think it's absurd to speculate he was running a blackmail ring. and that "intelligence" caught wind of it and used it for their purposes--leaning on powerful people they needed favors for.

there isn't really a good explanation for why people started letting him manage their money in the first place. he started his fund with the provision that investors needed to put up, at minimum, a billion dollars--this is when he was relatively unknown. and he found investors.

its seems completely reasonable given the known facts of the case

tho i doubt ppl were actual giving him a billion at a time

the details of his business are still really opaque. that's the legend at least.

It feels like there are two versions of the Epstein meme. The serious version that lefties and righties alike are sharing because they want it investigated.

And then the RickRoll version which is apolitical and played for shits and giggles

it was his marketing but i bet he was taking in much smaller amounts, not many ppl have a billion dollars just to throw around not even billionaires, tho obvs much smaller amounts than a billion can still be huge piles of money, one theory i read was that given reports that no one really did any deals w him is he was just putting the money in index funds thereby actually generating dece returns for his investors, maybe sort of a soft blackmail, or for a lot of them not really blackmail at all, more of a prostitution ring

tho more than that like he was offering access to a lifestyle that these guys thought they shd be living, hes one of them not some pimp or whatever except hes doing it like in the movies young girls all around him

which is not to say he didnt make tapes or just generally know incriminating things but as long as everyone was cool it was all blase blah

my read

and im sure most of the guys he mingled with never did anything w the girls, but they knew they were available if they wanted
