How is that a wild conspiracy theory?
- rodgerd 5y agoFor one thing, the MIT Media Lab is an associate of Epstein's.

Nothing to do with Epstein or Swartz's role at Reddit. [0] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apophenia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apophenia
- yashap 5y agoWhat’s the concrete evidence making this likely to be true? If there’s none, just wild speculation, then I’d consider it a wild conspiracy theory. The link seems to be “Swartz downloaded millions of scholarly articles using an MIT network, and Epstein/Maxwell donated money to MIT.” That seems to be about it? Not exactly a logical reason to conclude that Swartz was assassinated as part of an Epstein/Maxwell coverup.
