      tbqh epstein is an excellent normie-facing case study in why you should never lend a shred of credulity to any “offical” story or line - it’s always a lie and it’s always a lie the exact same way Epstein committed suicide - institutions give the lie legitimacy, the media uncritically reports the lie, nobody is allowed to question the lie without having it challeneged and going through a gauntlet that destroys critical voices

      and if that doesn’t work it just vanishes from the media entirely.

      that’s the game lol

        I think the most important thing for the whole “Epstein didn’t kill himself” stuff is that it became basic public knowledge that the feds or his “friends” offed him. But the general public was satisfied with solving the “mystery” and can’t be bothered to question why his connections were never punished. I think the memes and the “conspiracy theory” are a controlled release of information to satiate the public, nothing was ever done with this information, the information itself was treated as the “end” of the conspiracy.

        Bill gates doing an interview on a major network and all but saying he personally ordered the hit and then that just totally left our reality. That whole X politician could kill someone in broad daylight and it wouldn’t matter is not hyperbole
