Looks like the next year of politics is everyone proclaiming that their political opposition is and always has been just a psyop started by Jeff Epstein. Lovely.

the average person is actually too stupid to legitimately understand the epstein files 

everyone knows epstein was a bad guy, so they immediately assume that literally anything in those emails has to be related to something bad. people are making massive leaps in logic to come to conclusions that are likely far worse than what is actually being displayed.

epstein is bad, obviously, we all know that, but the thing about villains in real life is that they are still people. epstein didn't have a mountain with a massive skull carved into it that exuded dark energy that could only be dispelled by he-man or some shit.

take example 1, for instance. i'm seeing people say that "140 - coney island" in this email is code for a 14 year old boy that epstein and his brother are talking about. no, it's literally just them talking about the invention of hot dogs on coney island 140 years ago. who the fuck knows why, but that's what it is. the link isn't some weird sinister shit, it's just a local news website that is still running to this day. unfortunately that specific article isn't on the wayback machine, but i'm pretty sure it's talking about hot dogs and coney island.

then you have example 2, where people see =9 and see it as referring to a 9 year old. if they have seen the other files, they'll know that the = sign shows up a lot as a substitute for other letters and numbers at random, likely due to some weird formatting error. this exact email is present in another location in the files with the formatting intact to show it is a 19 year old being talked about: justice.gov/epstein/files/Data

i'm beginning to wonder if these files really SHOULDN'T have been released. there's so much slop that can be so easily misinterpreted while there are other problems in the US and in the world in general that are more immediate threats to a massive amount of people. it all seems like a distraction and a lot of political theater. it'd be better if the DOJ could actually hunt these people down, charge them, and release the relevant documents for those cases to the public instead of just uncovering literally everything epstein ever did online.

Download support has not been added to the website yet, so for now the download button will simply redirect to Itch.io.

"Junior" and "Entry level" have lost all fucking meaning.

I wonder how different the internet would be if Lowtax never told lolispammers to get off his website back in 2003.

If you can make one of these websites go away (or fall into obscurity), which would it be?

Interesting. If you're buying silver & gold to take physical delivery, don't buy coins or bars, buy ore from a mine because when you sell it, you're going to get hit with a discount anyway, but if it's ore you're buying then you get the discount too.
