As to me reading that Bill Gates' wife left him because he caught STD from eastern women on Epstein's island [1] makes me glad I never jumped on the Billy Boy cheerleading squad.
Apparently the founder of Microsoft caught viruses as easily as Windows.
[1] it's not exactly how she framed it but we can connect the dots: email leaks shows he got STD from easter women he met through Epstein, Billy Boy probably lied to her wife at first, then she got STD too, went to the doctor, learn she had a STD and now says: "His relation with Epstein is why we got divorced". That's not far-fetched and has to be close to what happened. Until she literally means Billy Boy and Jeffrey were gay but I doubt it.
It really is quite amazing and disgusting how truly interconnected so many of the 'celebrity' figures were tied to Epstein's network, all of them working to undermine our institutions in assistance to an absolutely heinous individual. None of the rich or wealthy have any actual morals or any sort of sensibilities, it's all just a facade.
So many intellectuals that appear to dedicate their lives to developing coherent and consistent models of how to think and how to act in this world, who nonetheless decided that conversing with a known child rapist is A-OK.
The only people I've seen who have come out ahead morally are Nassim Taleb and Norman Finkelstein.
People have personae. They can have good and bad sides. On the evening news parents or neighbors will often say “he seemed like a nice kid; I never saw him do anything bad.” About some kid (or older adult) now being involved in some crime.
Don’t make heroes out of people. Many have significant flaws, even unforgivable flaws.
Gives a whole new meaning to Manufacturing Consent.
I'm just glad I never jumped on the Chomsky cheerleading squad.

Truly a massive disappointment.

And Jim Simons also comes out of this looking good.
