Joi Ito wasn't at "some party" with Epstein. He raised money from him after Epstein was convicted for child sex trafficking. He also allowed Epstein to co-invest in his startups. He also visited his houses... During this time period Epstein continued to rape children (two new suits were just filed on Tuesday that state this).
Joi Ito has a deep relationship with a child sex trafficker, people are rightfully upset.
- dev_dull 7y agoNot only that, but the accusations against Epstein wasn’t just that he’s a pedophile, but he was perhaps running blackmail on people using that disgusting entrapment scheme. We’ll see how much of that turns out to be true in the end. The DOJ has been very tight lipped on all of it. For the time being I’m being VERY cautious about any powerful people who associated with him regularly (or ever visited his island).
- goatinaboat 7y agoI don’t believe Epstein was blackmailing anyone. I think his associates were more than happy to give him whatever he wanted in exchange for the depravities he organised for them. That’s why they’re always smiling and happy in photos with him. They don’t look like blackmail victims. And even if they were... you cannot blackmail someone unless they’ve done something! It was the same with Weinstein.
