Apparently Princess Sofia had contact with Epstein through a Swedish businesswoman (who looks like a clown/hag, see attached), Sofia is keeping a very low profile due to this, and did not attend the Nobel Prize Party this year...
The Swedish businesswoman in question, Barbro Ehnbom who had ties with Epstein:
But but but they're closer to not being overwhelmingly evil! They'll defund ICE once they've got a supermajority in the house and senate, the presidency, and patiently wait for the Supreme Court to die.
Epstein's interactions with Clinton can be traced to the early 1990s. After donating $1,000 to Bill Clinton's presidential election campaign in 1991, Epstein donated $10,000 to the White House Historical Association in 1993 and, accompanied by Maxwell, attended a donors' reception hosted by President Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton.
...
Clinton and Epstein appeared to be on friendly terms; a photo from 2002 shows them together during a stop in Brunei, and in an interview that year Clinton praised Epstein as a "highly successful financier" and "a committed philanthropist".
...
According to one of his lawyers, Epstein was "part of the original group" that conceived the Clinton Global Initiative, a flagship program of Clinton's philanthropic work. This relationship extended to Maxwell as well – she and Epstein were invited guests at events early in the Clinton Foundation era, and Maxwell was noted as the likely social "glue" connecting Epstein to Clinton's world.
Am I the only person that doesn't care about this? The age of consent in most other countries is 14/15 anyway. Even in the US there are states where what they did wouldn't be a crime. I'd rather the government focus on real issues like student loan debt forgiveness and the unemployment crisis.
That's absurd. I hate the US empire and the various crimes against humanity it's committed, including the crimes of Abu Graib. But the human trafficking and child rape committed by billionaires and politicians worldwide is a huge fucking problem.
They are just a shocking number of pedophile apologists on Lemmy. When they come out they come out strong. Unfortunately that comment is not a surprise to me in the least.
Man, I remember when trolls used to be subtle. I mean, come on. Brand new account saying something meant to generate outrage? Obvious troll is obvious.
Gonna ignore your little pedophile red flags, but just wanted to say you DO know that those are different departments right? The FBI going after these people would have zero effect on unemployment or debt forgiveness.
Age of consent in some places can be low, but then it carries a stipulation of the number of years older the other party can be. I.e. at 14 a person could consent to somebody 2 years older, but not 3 etc.
Traffic children's across state lines or countries for sex is also a crime.
In the unredacted version of the redacted files, epstein was also being charged with threatening victims if they spoke of it.
Consensual prostitution is fine. The problem is the blackmail ring.
The conventional theory: in order to be elected to Federal office in the States, you have to be selected by a party (primary elections are rigged, as we saw with Bernie Sanders). The parties only select candidates they can control, whether that is by secret videos or something else.
The blackmail thing I agree with but I do find it funny that people from a country that spent 20 years bombing kids in the desert never cared about those kids then but now suddenly they're so moral.
you have to give each case the same amount of attention. it's hypocritical to care about these women but then not talk about the way larger group of women that faced way worse from the US army
People should focus more on issues that matter. Like UBI or the employment crisis. I wouldn't be surprised if this is being used as a distraction by politicians so they don't have to address real problems. It's like rome's bread and circuses.

If it would "destroy the global order" then the global order needs to be destroyed.

It also just wouldn’t and that basically makes no sense at all other than to communicate some kind of incomprehensible fear
