I was just thinking that all the crazy stories about this guy would make for a really amazing movie, and I wondered when would be the right time. I figured that it would have to cool off so it isn’t too traumatic to survivors, and the story has to have time to cool from current events into a recent historical fascination. And there would need to be time for authors to write a bunch of books using the files as source materials and then do more research and interviews.

And then I realized that the biggest limiter on when it could be made would probably be that a lot of producers and financiers in Hollywood would have to have retired or died since the story is so damaging to so many people connected to celebrities and media moguls.

Also, fwiw, this was an actual shower thought.

    Not because Hollywood is full of rapists tho…

    More likely because talking about Epstein’s connections to Mossad lead to people (even Tucker Carlson) being killed shortly after.

    Like, everyone wants to act like the endgame was just raping kids, but they didn’t need an international ring for that. The ring existed to gather blackmail on the rich and powerful, and that black mail was/is being used to ensure the people responsible don’t get held accountable by any country.

    The same reason we won’t hear the real story, is the same reason at the end of the day most countries do whatever Netenyahu asks of them.

    That’s how blackmail works, you get them for a “small” thing, but every time they do something so you won’t release it, that gets added to the list of blackmail material. So be ause the pile of blackmail material keeps growing, you get the mark to agree to worse things.

    The shit that happened on Epstein’s island was horrible, but if we ever find out what people agreed to do to keep it quiet it’ll be French revolution vibes.
