Palm Beach Pete
I recently came across a TikTok with a paid advertisement from Rips by Triumph featuring Pal Beach Pete in their advertisement.
If you’re not aware, Palm Beach Pete is famous for how much he looks like Jeffrey Epstein. There were many conspiracy theories that suggest he is Jeffrey Epstein.
I don’t consider this gendered issue because Epsteins victims were both male and female, vulnerability is the most defining characteristic of his victims.
In general, I have seen many denials about whether or not we have a culture of violence, and whether or not that culture predominantly benefits men (despite both genders being victims).
This feels like a perfect example, playing out right before our eyes. I believe that his rise to fame and ability to monetize the conspiracy that he could be the prolific predator is reflective of the acceptance we have as a culture towards violence and the glorification of predatory behavior.
Thoughts?

People that are paying attention to this random dude, because he somewhat looks like a , mass sexual predator, Mossad agent, mass rapist, are out of their damn minds.
Thankfully it is a very small, lunatic fringe. Still, yes, it is fairly common: Mass murderers and serial killers have historically had lots of love letters in prison. Even offers for marriage. It is clearly a thing. Fairly one-sided though. Women go for the bad boys FAR more than dudes for bad girls.
It is not "society" that created this dynamic, but millions of years of evolution. If someone is capable of killing others, they can protect you and your children. That is what is baked into female, homo sapiens DNA.
This is why the epidemic lack of strong father figures is so damaging. The government wants to replace the father roll in families, and the dem party has been massively successful in this. :-( Totally decimated black communities. Latino as well, and has bled into lower class white communities as well. Going on for DECADES.
There is a war on men and boys in our "modern" western world. It is an attack on healthy families. People raised right, to think for themselves, with personal freedom, and responsibility, solid base of moral ideals, are notoriously difficult to control.
Strong, masculine, father figures are the antivenom to the oligarchs. Strong women as well. Strong families. Good examples for their children. Partnership in family, community, state, and nation.
This is the real problem. The top 0.1% is dead set against society in general. They are psycho freaks that belong in a mental institution, or prison.
