    I still don't follow how an international paedophile ring can be run openly on gmail and yahoo by a guy who didn't know where the shift key is, or how any punctuation worked.

    The same way Epstein was able to get a plea deal that gave him immunity to federal charges back in 2006. Everyone involved is extremely well-connected.

    Didn’t he get it by snitching on some obscure corruption/money laundering story?

    BUT they want you to provide a photo ID, provide access to your location 24/7, and let them read your thoughts because they want to keep homeland security tight.

    But a wide open pedo ring mail chain somehow eludes them.

    How can you be sure Zuckerberg was actually there and not just one of his robotic simulacrums?

    They all look a bit tense and uptight.

    Not really "wild" though.

    For now. A large part of the push for the shitty new tech in everything is to track watch and keep surveillance on every one of us. If you don’t think it follows keystrokes to know what we say on our little anon platform you haven’t paid attention to predictive text evolving.

    Yea instead of reddit rules it's moderators whims. I've only run into one or 2 Lemmy communities this way though and just leave them when I notice I don't like how the moderators operate 🤷 freedom for posters and freedom for moderators im all for it

    We need to reclaim the wealth that has been stolen so our families don't end up serving their families in perpetuity.

    Their children should have to live like regular kids.

    The key revelation here is that this was after his conviction. They knew what this dude was about and still showed up to a dinner party.

    Musk and Zuck wanted to fuck kids.

    The dinner looks pretty mundane to me. I get it, a well-connected socialite arranged a dinner with some high-profile tech-bros, but so what? Seems like a bunch of Capitalists, doing capitalism.

    It's even more innocuous, this seems to be a social dinner with spouses etc. Basically the kind of thing that happens eery week in NYC or SF.

    Don't mind me, just emailing myself a picture I secretly took of our totally mundane dinner. OK.

    It's possible that they had all agreed to no pictures, but since it's Epstein, of course he took some anyway.

    Clearly he was a smart guy so him risking the photo must be worth it? Well at least he thought it was worth it which makes you wonder why.

    Lemme fix that for you

    well-connected socialite who has already been convicted of child sex trafficking long before the image was taken

    It only seems innocuous when divorced from context.

    "prosecute those who commited heinous crimes with Epstein"

    ima assume that Donald Duck slapped this photo on Elon's face when he started tweeting about releasing Epstein files. He probably also slapped this on Zuckerberg and Thiel's faces on other occasions too.

    Isn’t it weird that the story given to you by your successors would have you believe that your successors are in some way more worthy than you?

    We do a lot of dick swinging these days, via the convenience of being able to redefine so easily what counts as progress. Is capital growth progress? Is extending the average life expectancy progress? Is exhaustive levels of individualism progress? Is being able to fuck kids on a private island, while none of the poor people know about it, progress? Is being able to kill a large animal progress?

    I don’t think any one of those should necessarily count as progress. Especially not the one involving kids, though that seems to be in opposition to what our billionaire class believes.

    Progress comes relative to a shared value system. The world’s leading economic and military superpower does not really have a shared value system anymore. That makes none of them capable of any meaningful progress, unless they find a way to come together as one. That’s going to be hard when your billionaire class controls your media platforms. Would you call that control they wield “progress?”

    Stars blow themselves up without our intervention all the time. All we need to do is wait, which we seem okay at already…

    What if, it turns out, that the psychology of an entity capable of contorting as much energy in such a way is also a psychology that would not do so? Say, because to learn as much about the universe, as to be able to treat it by blowing up its stars, you must understand the universe in a way that would reliably demotivate any such action?
