I'm mostly talking out of my ass, but I wonder if the access to copious amounts of hard drugs and alcohol that comes with money plays some part in it. Seeing if there's anything to substantiate that idea, here's a review of prior studies on the subject: Substance misuse and substance use disorders in sex offenders: A review.

The following is an excerpt from Table 1. History of substance abuse among sex offenders: retrospective file research:

(No, I don't know what "child molesters without pedophilia" means.)

It basically continues like this. You can read the study yourself, but there does appear to be at least some correlation with drug and alcohol abuse when it comes to child molestation. Speaking anecdotally, I have also heard that cocaine use can lead to engaging in riskier sex acts that might not be appealing while sober.

I have no experience using cocaine, but being drunk has never made me want to sexually abuse children, so I suspect there must be some other personal defect which leads to these kinds of behaviors, with drugs/alcohol reducing inhibitions. Obviously, drug and alcohol use does not explain disgustingly rich people being disgustingly horrible creeps on its own, but it might be in the mix.

I think it's a bit of both. You need to have low morals or be a narcissist just to become Uber rich since it's inherently exploitative to make that much money. Then once you have the money you are protected from most things because you can pay money to make it go away. So then you start getting into weirder and weirder things, or it just becomes more of your focus since you can afford anything you want.

A little of both.

You tend to do what the people around you do. If I'm in a religious person's home I'm going to act differently than I would in a rowdy bar.

Like the saying goes "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely"

Thats what happens when you have a king instead of a president.

I think you dropped this:

Death by a thousand cuts?

The straw that broke the camel's back?

Only if you've been alive and paying attention.

MAGA movement is quite something. Citizens barely paying attention and only in Presidential election cycles hooked onto Trump. He was the guy that was going to punch the establishment in the face and give some back to the avg worker.

People actually dialed in knew this wasn't true, GOP didnt really care because he was their guy, and MAGA had media propaganda warping their minds.

Why is this such a big deal? Because now Trump looks like the establishment, they thought he would punch or bring down.

No but see, they can be friends and he can be in the files, but trust him, he's not like the others bro, he said so /s

Yeah that’s what bugs me, the evidence has always been there so I don’t see why this would be the line in the sand.

I guess what is special about this time is the shamelessness.

Will either a lot of people didn't know, cuz they don't pay attention, or they're lying to themselves so I say we keep saying it as often as possible until it's undeniable for everybody. All those pedophiles need to be brought to light. No matter which political party they donate to or are members of.

Trump put his hands “all over my breasts”, waist and buttocks while Trump and Epstein smiled at each other, in what she believed was a “twisted game” between the two men.

Karoline Leavitt, then a spokesperson for Trump’s election campaign, described Williams’s accusations as “unequivocally false. It’s obvious this fake story was contrived by the Harris campaign.”

Mother fucker bragged about grabbing women by the pussy. I don’t see why any other parts of their body are off limits in his mind.

Like “Pussy’s fine but I draw the line at boobs and butt. That shit’s just weird.”

Dude’s a fucking sexual predator. He doesn’t have sexual assault “standards”.

You just brought back a memory from my clubbing days. The 2 guys looked like this, minus the jacket. They wouldn’t take no for an answer, and it was a pain in the ass to get away from them. I was wasted but I was also lucid when it counted.
