    …That’s a bit of ableism, Hawking managed to have an affair that ended his marriage although it seems that original marriage involved his abuse, so he comes out the good guy. It’s entirely possible for a wealthy, privileged person with disabilities to abuse someone else, either through power imbalance or with assistance under their direction. But no evidence that it occurred in his case.

  The Epstein PR team at the time was doing a “sciencewashing” operation donating millions of dollars everywhere to let the rapist appear as a genuine philanthropist

    Bro, it’s tough to rape people when you can’t even feed yourself.

      in my sentence the rapist part was relative to the one that was killed in prison, not the real scientist
