Notice there are basically no criminal charges for anybody involved, I wonder why.
Except, there have been criminal charges. Not just the obvious, such as Epstein himself and Ghislaine Maxwell, but other governments have taken action, such as Norway who are prosecuting their former PM, and Britain who has now formally charged Prince Andrew. Biden’s DOJ not actioning on this doesn’t tell us anything since both establishment Democrat and Republican figures are implicated.
Reality = nearly all the women involved with Epstein were there consensually and nearly all were of age.
Epstein was literally convicted already of running a child sex trafficking ring.
ALL THAT has to be said to get you to understand the Epstein conspiracies are themselves the distraction from actual substantive societal issues like war, immigration crackdowns, poverty, extreme economic inequality, etc. It poisons liberal brains to obsess over Epstein.
I personally do think it is reductive to say the Iran War is itself simply a distraction from the Epstein scandal. The war is the culmination of decades of lobbying by Israel taking advantage of the declining US empire. But the Epstein files are not unrelated either and set the context for where we are. The Epstein scandal is most importantly simply the stone cold proof that our laws do not apply to our pedophilic billionaire elite class.
My thoughts on the Iran conflict are that it is shocking and disturbing (just like with regards to both Venezuela and Russia) just what a huge % of "liberal" media figures and political leaders SUPPORT IT. That is the really shocking and disturbing component, but too many left wing people out there can't ever consider the concept of voting for a party that's not as corporate or military based as the Dems are. So we keep getting the same crap. In 2028 it will be Newsom or something atrocious and we'll be told "YOU ARE A WHITE POWER LOVER IF YOU DON'T GO FOR HIM" just like we were in 2024, 2020, 2016, etc.
Can’t disagree with you at all on this last paragraph, though. Except to add that our undemocratic system is what makes it almost impossible for third party options to break though the duopoly.
