I've seen this "conspiracy theories make it easier to enslave people" shit repeated on here for all kinds of subjects, but the Epstein one made me ragequit the site for like two days
epstein had the opposite impact on me.
learning that multiple people have tried to unmask the epsteins in the past 100ish years, but it was always dismissed as nothing more than a conspiracy theory each time showed me the immense amount of control that the espteins have on our collective consciousness and watching westerners (especially americans) just shrug and keep doing what the epsteins want them to do anyways has been eye opening to me.
