my wife said something about Epstein that is completely correct:

it isn't that he's the epicentre of everything bad in the world. it's that he's the only rich fucker's texts we're being allowed to read.

all of the world's billionaires are, evidently, in a death-rape-cult.

@AmyZenunim @inthehands yep - I said to my wife Epstein is not a cause, but a symptom. He wouldn't have existed in this form if it wasn't because the billionaires already do what they do.

I suspect he was found and elevated from normal everyday life to be a useful patsy because he displayed all the qualities and behaviours they needed in someone to do that dirty work.

I feel like the idea that he was selected and elevated as a scapegoat is a bit of an unnecessary suspicion. He was one of the rich fucks. He was fucked up, because the rich fucks are fucked up. He got along with rich fucks, because rich fucks are fucked up.
I have no doubt him being as he was played into his level of success, but I doubt there being an organised conspiracy to elevate him and throw him under the bus from the start. He did get turned into a scape goat, but that's kinda after things started going sour.

@flesh @AmyZenunim @inthehands oh absolutely, not a concerted effort - I am in no doubt he absolutely rose to the occasion and as we're seeing - the receipt were kept. Not one of these billionaires imagined they would be connected with him, and maybe that's why they saw him as useful - someone partly in the shadows who they thought no one would suspect.
