How many people do you think see those tweets, how many minds do you think you have changed, and at what mental cost to yourself?

		I see other's tweets. I don't think most are being shadowbanned. I am doing fine myself and pretty productive actually.

		What's the point of these questions? Seems like, "what's the point of dissent if the cards are stacked against you?"

He was begging to go party with someone that spent time in prison for child exploitation.

That in itself should make you hate the dude.

Yup. Hate him as person. But he is still net positive with his scientific/engineering contributions, is he not?

Wasn't Edison an asshole?

Dunno, I'd rather have unabused kids than the technological breakthroughs he has contributed to. Anyone being giddy to meet with a convicted pedo is very sus in my books, and deserves no respect, regardless of their prior contributions.

Children were exploited, and we're doing this net positive analysis on whether he should face the scorn. I'm not having a go at you - it's just frustrating to see very little happening after so much has been exposed, and I think part of it comes from this mindset - 'oh he's a good guy, this is a mistake/misstep' while people that were exploited as children can't even get their justice.

It's sickening.

I'd rather have both. Hawthorne doesn't get nuked if Elon Musk goes to jail.

Abuse. Exploitation. CSAM. We're mushing words.

Child rape. These men raped children. Others not only stayed silent in full knowledge of it, but supported it directly and indirectly. More than that, they arrogantly assumed–and, by remaining in the United States, continue to assume–that they're going to get away with it.

Which category is Elon Musk in? We don't know. Most of the people in the Epstein files are innocent. But almost all of them seem to have been fine with (a) partying with an indicted and unrepentant pedophile [1] and (b) not saying for decades–and again, today–anything to the cops about a hive of child rape.

A lot of them should go to jail. All of them should be investigated. And almost all of them need to be retired from public life.

		Is there any evidence that Epstein was a pedophile?
