I find it fascinating how this particular sites' users post articles like this while there's so much obscene news about the dude right now.

He was implicated in infidelity and STDs, not kiddie diddling, or was he?

  I mean (allegedly) giving your significant other an STD, and then trying to procure secretive meds to give to them so that you don't have to tell them is high up on the list of horrible behavior for a person

    who is downvoting this? you can just go read about this. it's not a lie.

      People that don’t believe it’s that “horrible”.

        No its because the emails were not written by Bill. They were written by Epstein to himself and were drafts that were never sent see above https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46867505 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46867505

        They were drafted by Epstein on behalf of Bill's (former) doctor; there's no knowing whether the doctor actually sent it or not.

        It's either non-criminal or way less criminal than the new gold standard of billionaire horrible.

        Let's be real here it is all part of the culture wars. Gates is politically left, gives money to charities, believes in climate change etc. He's also an excellent lightning rod for Trump. It reminds me of how we get memes about transsexuals abusing children but absolute silence about all the church members who are caught daily.

        > believes in climate change etc. He "evolved" on this after the election..

  There's a bunch of stuff coming out about his coordination with Epstein to run pandemic simulations, and a lot of business level stuff going on after Epstein's initial run-ins with the law. That aside if he's on a personal enough level to ask him for antibiotics to sneakily slip his wife, then Bill would definitely know about all the rest. Really don't have any more room to give these people the benefit of doubt.

    If you’re Bill/Melinda and you’re undertaking a massive project to change the world positively, why not take money from Epstein? The public benefit would dwarf whatever benefit Jeff could obtain.
    - King-Aaron 9mo ago
      Well to be honest with you - its because they murdered and raped children. That would be like, fairly high on my list of reasons.
    - westpfelia 9mo ago
      Well first off, if you're bill and melinda gates you just have more money then Epstien. Flat out. But you know also there is the whole why would you take money from a convicted pedophile. Oh and why would you ask that convicted pedo to get you drugs so that you can hide the fact you gave your wife a STD from a russian hooker. If you hung out with Epstien after his initial conviction then the burden of proof should be on you that YOU also arent a pedo. Fuck everyone involved with him. and fuck bill gates.

  Epstein made the claim, but there's no indiction whether it is true, or him making it up for clout/just to mess with Gates, etc.
  - byzantinegene 9mo ago
    Maybe true, may not be. But based on track record, i wouldn't put it past him
- dngray 9mo ago
  Not everyone mentioned in the Epstein documents is associated with kid diddling. Also the thing about "surreptitiously giving melinda antibiotics" weren't actually written by Bill and he has since denied it. > It’s unclear who the Boris referenced in the emails is, or if the messages were ever sent to anyone. Only Epstein is listed in the to and from fields. https://www.theverge.com/tech/871879/bill-gates-epstein-files-absolutely-absurd https://www.theverge.com/tech/871879/bill-gates-epstein-file... So the emails were some emails in Epstein's draft folder he never sent to anyone. This is a dude who peddled in dirt and leverage against anyone and anything, probably how he got so wealthy and why he had his island parties in the first place. There is a reason why in the Kevin Rudd related mentions he is described as a "odious character in the extreme" basically stay clear from him.

The whole Epstein-Saga from the victims, the scale of operations, to the sheer range of people he connected from Gates, to Bannon to German Newspaper Editor-In-Chiefs, makes Berlusconis Bunga Bunga parties seem wholesome and decent.
