It’s also just so weird that this sentiment seems to be popping up out of nowhere. If I didn’t recognize OP’s username, I’d definitely think it was an organized campaign from some TotallynotBotFarm
100% agreed on what you said. Epstein is breaking people on the right, why would we stop talking about it? We want as many people as possible to see how bad they fucked up
i understand the root of the sentiment. it’s exhausting talking to people in a cult to get them out of the cult about the things the cult talks about. this is also why i think in a rising era of state based religious fascism, atheists and agnostics need to study theology. people who are resisting the fascism have to know how to make propaganda that works on the masses in thrall that can be shifted. not doing it is just kind of letting the fascists win, and that’s not an acceptaple outcome. i understand not wanting to do it because you’re not interested, but these times demand empathetic self sacrifice to create a future in which we can just not study things we’re not interested in
I grew up religious so I know exactly what you’re talking about. You can’t convince someone on the right with the same logic as someone on the left.
It’s generally better to give someone the facts and let them come to their own conclusion than to spell it out for them but that’s especially true with the religious right.
But we don’t have to convince them that pedophiles are bad. We don’t have to harp on the likelihood that Trump is one. We just have to agree that Epstein was a sex trafficker, that there’s powerful people protecting his clients, and the government holds the key to prosecuting them.
Want a shortcut? “When is Trump going to hold Bill Clinton and the other pedo democrats accountable?”

Maybe you should reevaluate your immediate reaction to dissent if your first thought is ‘bot farm’ and not ‘another person just has a different take than me.’
OP is not the only one suddenly voicing this opinion. I had never seen it before last week and now there’s been a dozen posts/comments on this pretty bad take.
But regardless, people said the same thing about the protest non-voters. They’re just voicing their opinions, right?
If you don’t think there are literally people who aren’t bots who think things you don’t there is nothing I can add to this conversation.
It’s kind of funny that you also decide that seeing an opinion somewhere multiple times is evidence of a conspiracy and not like… people getting sick of annoying shit.
I do think that but it doesn’t change my point at all. The group most vocally opposed to releasing the files is currently running the country. Why would I not find it weird that someone from the left is telling us to get over it?
Kind of funny that you think a rightwing campaign to change public opinion “from the inside” is so unheard of that someone would be weird to raise an eyebrow to this

i feel like i’m not making sense

You could try finding anyone anywhere in this thread saying that, but you would fail.
