I mean, that's a pretty interesting choice for pizzagate, you could easily have dropped it on Jeffery Epstein, to be charitable to the conspiracy theorists, is known to be associated with Bill Clinton. edit: removed joke about "epstein not killing himself" because it distracted from the main point by introducing a second conspiracy theory.

The story that Epstein killed himself and it just happened that nobody was watching and the camera was broken is completely implausible. Something is suspicious there. That doesn't prove any particular course of events did happen, though. In the meantime the next excitement will be Prince Andrew. The stated person was just the first hit for a republican actually convicted of child sex offences.

  Epstein not killing himself was a great moment, a tremendous moment. For a brief, beautiful period of time, we were united. Far left, far right, normies and the fringes of cyberculture alike; united in thinking “so the cameras magically broke and the guards fell asleep… yea right!!!”

    That moment is not over.

  The narrative my mind generated (and it is just a narrative) is that some entirely normal person whose job or circumstances gave them access to Epstein, looked at him, decided he was guilty and that a billionaire like him would never face justice, turned the camera(s) off, and took justice into their own hands. I have no evidence for this, and don’t want to even imply it’s more than my imagination.

    The thing is, high profile prisoners have a whole system set up to prevent a single individual getting in close like that. (Or were supposed to. You'd think they learned after Oswald!)

      Sure, but it’s not like software is supposed to be hackable either, and if physical security is like digital security the guards probably have a long list of issues they told their bosses about years ago and about which nothing has been done.
