They already faked a suicide for a dude in prison to keep that info from getting out, that’s a hell of a warning.

Epstein was allowed to kill himself. Someone whispered in his ear that he should do the right thing, hint, hint, or face monstrous consequences.

The monstrous consequences more than death? This is a bad take. Zero people have been arrested and charged with soliciting the humans he sex trafficked. Maxzine gizzwelle is in a Texas prison with special privileges , he is rich and connected he would have been innocent or pardoned eventually.

Yes, there is worse than death.

having actually read more of these files as they’re released…i’m kind of in this camp now, epstein didnt think he was some monster…he just “like em young”, they were (supposed) to have atleast had their period.
even a monster like epstein was disgusted with trump being an actual pedo
which reminds me of a joke that goes something like there’s 4-5 different types of pedophilia, but only pyschiatrists and pedophiles know the difference

This is one of the dumber conspiracy theories I’ve ever heard

You mean the consequences that all his rapist friends faced? Oh… Wait.

Worse, Snowden did leak an absurd amount of gov details and documents and info and it did nothing to stop what’s happening. People barely acknowledged it.
Maybe someone would martyr themselves. But doing it for nothing? Not appealing.

It did actually have some effect, though. The GDPR and countries reducing their dependence on the USA’s intelligence services are part of it.
I’m also reminded of the Panama Papers, which did make some bankers in Iceland step down.

Dude, it changed a ton. Facebook was http only back then. Huuuuuge roll-out of encryption followed the Snowdon leaks.
It lead to massive increases in secured public infrastructure.
