While Mandelson and Andrew are important stories in the UK, I feel like most UK media are currently missing the big picture. Which is that the Epstein-Thiel-Bannon-Russia network has essentially been conspiring to destroy western democratic institutions. Andrew and Mandleson are disgusting cogs in that bigger machine. Seen v. few headlines mentioning Thiel directly over here.

This isn't to undermine the importance of the girls who have been raped — obviously that's vile — and that in some cases greater protections are being afforded to perpetrators than victims is horrifying. But we finally have a great deal of hard evidence, of something that a lot of people suspected for a long time.

In Putin’s Orbit: The Crypto Politics of Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel 

The web of ties between Epstein, Moscow and Silicon Valley leads back to Steve Bannon and Nigel Farage

Though it does cite this doc. Which I've been avoiding (re)posting because I haven't actually found the original. Anyone know if it was removed (or is it fabricated)?

This thread is fun, former VP Pence's then-chief of staff didn't seem to think Trump would make it through 2019 (assuming same Nick). Then we have an email declaring "the Belgium govt fell 5 hours after my speech" and another with a celebratory tone stating "the right has the working class behind them on immigration".

"David Stern arranges a meeting between Epstein and Mariinsky Theatre director and close Putin associate Valery Gergiev, describing the latter as the “owner” of St. Petersburg and a 'GREAT SOURCE OF P'. What P stands for is evident from other correspondence."

Guys, the David Stern in the Epstein emails is not the NBA guy, looks to be German entrepreneur David Stern who is an EV guy and does a lot of business w/ China. We've written on him in some of our stories. Seeing a lot of people dragging NBA Stern for this but it appears to be...misidentification.

@Jdm2 thank you! There are certainly more than a couple of Sterns it could be, I'll remove the NBA tag

@aliide @dyckron We see these fragments, which we know are all related, but I’m always wondering whether they’ll ever all be tied together into something as concise as a documentary or book that would let us see how these many moving parts formed the machine that destroyed democracy.

@aliide @CAWguy it's not the same thing, but the 10 principles from Requiem For The American Dream cover the dismantling itself pretty well imho! But to see all the Epstein links, that would be something. Maybe even to Chomsky himself 😳

@aliide Much of the UK media seem to be scared to say the obvious, for fear of being ridiculed with "reds under the bed" type replies. But they need to get real and face the serious threats from the active network of Ruzzia-Thiel-Bannon.
The UK & EU need to have investigative security to protect us, since the trump regime has disbanded all the USA secret service support in this area.

Exactly this. They are scapegoats being thrown to the wolves and the media, as usual, laps it up and fails to understand the real and very dangerous story behind it.

@aliide I'd argue that if Putin's strategy to take down western democracy was to just give the creeps, sex pests, paedophiles and the rest what they desired, those institutions (or at least those leading them) may not be worth saving.

@aliide Peter Mandelson was friends with Epstein. Mandelson is gay, but I read that Epstein also had boys at his disposal.

When I said Putin was behind all the big evil in the world, I sounded like a conspiracy nut.

At least we now saw the mechanism.

People are also still focusing on how it happened. They also need to focus on how to stop it from happening again… because it might already be happening.

Human categorisation means we struggle to imagine multiple of the same crises. At the height of Covid-19 pandemic some poor sole looking for a bit of joy, said “at least we can remove ‘pandemic’ from the potential risk register” and when I corrected them “no we can’t” it nearly crushed them, sadly. We can have two pandemics simultaneously (covid and AIDS in some countries). Reality doesn’t care.

So. How do we stop the #Epstein shit from flying again? The floor is open.

@taatm

Bringing the topmost guys involved to justice would be essential for that. Only very huge & massive public pressure from voters could possibly lead to that taking place.
