Actually I don't know why people are downvoting you. Weren't these the first people to be ranting and raving about Jeffery Epstein years ago, and everyone (myself included) thought they were complete conspiracy nuts?
Now those statements of theirs has been proven, and before Epstein has a chance to testify, he magically manages to commit suicide in a high-security prison.
And when you think about it, the whole Epstein story is ridiculous. It's completely fucking insane! Everything from the private island to the "suicide" reads like an alternate reality where everything is as stereotypically cliche evil as possible. But yet it exists. So clearly, the insanity of the conclusion of a theory is not grounds for ignoring it.
I am not saying conspiracists are right on everything, or even most things, but it seems to me that some of them have a knack for seeing problems from a different angle. Perhaps we shouldn't just flat-out ignore them before verifying said angle for ourselves.
- daybreak 7y agoYes, not all conspiracy theories are just theories. It's relatively easy to disprove something like flat earth by getting on an airplane, but something like Epstein required time to collect evidence, make arrests, etc.
- reilly3000 7y agoNo rational person has had any doubts about Epstein's involvement with sex crimes since at least 2008. If they had secret knowledge of this, why didn't they share it much, much earlier?
