the amount of mental gymnastics here.

there's a huge gap being skipped from being skipped.

epstein would be complicit and still part of the gang if he's doing what he was told.

So Pizzagate is real, but the Epstein files aren't?

KELLY: It's totally crazy.

Well I agree with him on that part.

Maybe Himmler was a patriot, just doing what he was told? /s GTFO.

If this narrative actually catches on with the right... Ugh I don't even know.

Why are Democrats not going on the news and taking every opportunity to call the Republicans pedo protectors?

[–] [email protected] 45 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Because they're so bad at messaging that it comes off as self-sabotage. They've been like this for decades, it's fucking infuriating.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

~~Also because there's probably democrats on the list~~ Also because Bill Clinton.

Hey wanna know something about Epstein? Alongside being a massive pedophile, he was also a Eugenicist who wanted to make a Musk style baby-mama ranch. He worked with the guy who founded Colossal (the "Direwolf" people, remember that?) with the idea to basically do Eugenics.

Alongside providing children for Trump to rape, that's why the right want to rehabilitate him, because they wanna do Eugenics.

The last thing the world needs is more people walking around with Trumps or the likes DNA. It’s like it was scraped off the floor of a trailer park orgy.

I am surprised how few people know about the Epstein breeding ranch. From what I've seen it was his big project before being arrested, he had a massive facility on thousands of acres of land with its own airstrip all ready to go in New Mexico. If he hadn't been arrested and died in jail he would probably be raising his first brood by now. Given how much he tried to spread his eugenicist ideas around in the crowd he hung out with I wouldn't be surprised if there are more deranged assholes out there like him and Musk trying to pull off their own human breeding projects.

oh there is, and I think they're gonna come out the woodwork with this "I'm superior, I must spread my seed" shit.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

Feeling the need to spread seed based on a self described superior gene set.

I swear I've heard that before....

elon musk does a heil hitler salute

Oh right.

This is the classic conspiracy theory logic laid bare. A long string of facts tied together with plausible sounding but made-up reasons.

Just because your theory could explain it doesn't mean it does explain it.

[–] [email protected] 135 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Classic propaganda tactic. Speculating about alternative answers after you already know the answer or when everyone knows where the answer is.

He speculates why did all these rich and powerful people not abandon him? Because he was secretly a good guy? No, you liar, it's because they were his clients so he could blackmail them if he wanted to.

He speculates why did he get favorable terms from previous trials? Because he was secretly a good guy? No, you propagandist liar, it's because he was ultra wealthy and well connected.

If he was secretly a good guy, he wouldn't have offed himself in prison, so there'd be a giant investigation over that.

Murica: Lowest iq people to ever exist!

Wow, what a nut job. He starts by trying to say maybe Epstein worked for the CIA and was trying to get blackmail on foreign officials for our government. Sir, even if that were true, you should want every member of the CIA using children as rape bait for blackmail in prison. (And the people showing up to use said services.. you know.. the guy your trying to defend)

We have epstein files.

There are no epstein files.

Epstein was a hero.

My exact reaction. It's no longer mental hurdles, it's mental high jump

[–] [email protected] 34 points 3 days ago

Pedophiles are okay if they're on the Republican side.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 3 days ago

This is just one of the Republican insiders being honest for once in their life, claiming Epstein for one of their own like he always was.
