9 mentions in the files: 1 story about someone stealing his watches, 1 matrix joke, 1 mention of 47 Ronin, the rest are duplicates of promotional material for an acting class listing him as a former student.

Phew, looks like he's clear.

    If we could make a new political party, and just call it the American people's party, and make it a genuine party for genuine people, I feel like Keanu should be the parties nominee for president, followed by Jon Stewart

    If you vote for the person you would want to be your boss, the country would be a lot better off.

    Most people wouldn't want a vindictive, lying, cheating, could raping, fraud with no actual talent, skill, strategy, or empathy as a boss.

    Keanu's Canadian, so.... You could become the 11th province?

    (this is meant as light-hearted ribbing aimed at someone who clearly wants to see their country go in a better direction, I hope it's taken as such)

    I would totally sign onto that if my taxes get me healthcare

    Honestly, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois are waaaaayyyy closer to joining Canada than you'd think

    Fortunately or unfortunately, Canada isn't ready to accept them. It would require a major change to our Constitution, and opening that can of worms for major revisions isn't going to happen (history with Quebec, they never signed on the first time and were forced into it, two attempts to renegotiate failed, they had three referenda on separating from Canada...)

    Ok, Quebec and Texas get to succeed to Quebexas, we get a much less incompetent and slightly less evil government, you no longer get subjected to America's extremely normal foreign policy. I see no problems here.

    Oh my god... Quebec and Texas together would be the worst pairing. Other than not wanting the federal government to control anything, they have almost nothing in common. e.g. Montreal is one of North America's most livable cities; Houston is one of the least.

    I like the idea, but, join APP seems like maybe not the best acronym.

    I've thought that too, but then again, in a near future where any opposition ideology may be persecuted, it would actually be an ideal acronym. It would be confusing for AI to parse when the usage is entirely context based. The false positives would ruin anything collected

    There's probably quite a few famous people in the Epstien files who were just paid to make an appearance or speech or similar at an event before he was infamous...

    Yeah, the guy had a real fetish for surrounding himself with smart people, especially considering he was (based on the evidence in the files that have been released so far) a remarkably dumb person.

    He wanted to play music with his band at my family business. We have a capacity for only 60 people or something small like that. He was so full of himself, he was offended we said no. He wanted to bring in 100 people, causing us to break the law and safety of our guests. Then I think he called us foolish or dumb or something. I forget because it’s been about 20 years or so. I couldn’t believe it.

    Whilst obviously not as atrocious as being in the Epstein files, Keanu did appear on pseudo-archeologist Graham Hancock’s “Ancient Apocalypse” who has been shitting a load of pseudoscience into current discussion about archaeology and ancient civilisation.

    was it on purpose or was it like when kate mulgrew unknowingly did voiceover for a geocentrism documentary?

    Why Keanu Reeves Is In Ancient Apocalypse Season 2, Explained by Graham Hancock

    Hard to say with absolute certainty as I can’t find anything about him outright speaking against it after appearing in it, but with the smallest amount of due diligence you can find out easily what sort of man Graham Hancock is.

    Flint Dibble's debate in Joe Rogan was the desconstruction I needed to see to completley break the spell. Grahams stories really sparked my imagination and since I know very little about archeology, it was easy to not be more skeptic about his claims.

    Also looking at Grahams past interviews you can clearly see that he is a doomsday grifter.

    So we're a lot of legit scientists, who later said Graham Hancock manipulated the meaning of what was said through editing, or outright misrepresented them by surrounding what was said with a different context.

    Dumbass take that entertaining ideas that the experts on archeology being wrong is like fucking children with billionaires. Like so dumbass it really doesn't warrant much of a response other than, what?

    I guess we found the archeologist that is convinced he has all the answers to the unanswerable and instead of using reason to further his arguments prefers personal attacks on those putting forward alternate theories.

    Theories on subjects you have no way of knowing the answer to. Always beware those claiming to have all the answers, to questions we don't have the data to have all the answers to. Regardless of whatever theories this guy you have a hard on for espouses.

    Graham Hancock is not an archeologist, just a self proclaimed expert.

    What does that have to do with the Israeli honeypot operation entrapping the swells in fucking children on tape to blackmail them?

    Nothing. Although I don't doubt someone questioning what you are certain you are an expert in makes you mad, it's not applicable to fucking children and being blackmailed with that by fascists.

    As if being an archeologist would give one the answers to the unanswerable anyway. The fact that you can't accept you don't have all the answers destroys your credibility in fact.

    Right there in the first line my guy, I didn’t even come close to saying that they were one and the same, just that Keanu isn’t as “heckin wholesome” as people always title their posts seem to think.
