    Dude they are never releasing the full files. This is all just a fucking tease and while they’re busy pretending to be bringing the hammer of justice down all the pedophiles they just chose to protect (once again) are casually helping set up and cement the authoritarian regime in cities across America.

    Like when we reach the point that there is military patrolling every major city, elections are cancelled indefinitely for our own good, and they feel safe enough to just admit they’re not releasing anything else, what do we even do?

    This is like somebody who you caught robbing you, then giving you some of your stuff back to get you to shut up and not draw so much attention. Then reassuring you that you’ll get the rest back soon, they just didn’t feel comfortable giving it all back to you yet? What possible reason would you have to trust or believe that they’ll do anything once the heat and focus has died down enough?

      whilst i think every reasonable person wants everyone on a hypothetical epstein list (only saying hypothetical because we don’t honestly know what’s actually there to be released: doubtful it’s as simple as a list) to be brought to justice, the point at this stage is just to speak their language: MAGA can’t be trusted, and it seems the only way they realise that is with things like this… constantly point out, on common ground, that this is all hypocritical lying bullshit

        They don’t care though. They know that they are hypocritical lying bullshit peddlers. To them, that is a virtue.

          The core, ie the qanon cult, absolutely care. Their only reason for engaging in politics in the first place is to fight the demonic pedophile ring infesting the government. They just didn’t realize they were voting for its leader.

          there’s definitely some of them that do… at the very least, there’s been a bunch of the MAGA influencers that have been pissy about it… i think that’s a useful thing to push on

      Yeah, I honestly don’t understand what all the fuss is about.

      The Trump admin isn’t going to release a trove of documents detailing Trump’s escapades.
