I think theres a good chance people will be more understanding about it. On Epstein's original flight list, I xan only remember the names of people who visited a LOT. And even then, some of the people who only visited a few times turned out to be child molesters. So we can't know for sure.

Well those crimes were ages ago. Who would prosecute them? Yeah, it won't even go to trial. If they are guilty, which... Like you said, gonna be tough to prove. Rich people absolutely do better at every step of our legal system.

Saying "people are stupid so we shouldn't have information" is so anti-humanist. Mob mentality. We have courts, why does public opinion matter? Its actually up to these important people to protect their image if its worth so much - but they don't, they're living their lives. Often with even less moral consideration than a regular guy.

And your call to wealth being a shield from danger? Bill gates seems to have lost his marriage over his involvement with Epstein. And that Prince guy in Britain, the rest of the royal family talks shit about him.

Red lining and white flight I imagine are alive and well in the state with the most segregated school system in the country. (Or is it just NYC that is the most segregated?) Policy choices continue to send black new yorkers down a worse path than white ones. Stop and frisk is here and now. I always felt that reparations for slavery would be best spent in the school system, but NY would really have to pull a lot more strings to correct for the second class citizenship caused by slavery. To be fair, I'm glad Hochul is trying to correct so many wrongs in her state. But I'm also angry that Eric Adams is in office right now.

Better the devil you know, I think McCarthy was more convenient for democrats than Mike Johnson, and that pissed off fascists whose careers will be just as short.

No I think twitch hosts all kinds of livestreams and hides behind the ides that they are all about gaming. Twitch maintains more style than other social media, but its just monopolizing one kind of social media post. Live streams.

Um. Why? I think Walmart and college football are both highly profitable and abusive enough that federal regulation should be hitting their business practices. But Twitter and twitch? Pre-elon, I think they both had an effective monopoly on their markets but weren't visibly abusing that monopoly. They are, but its just not that damaging.

I wonder if it would be advantageous to make a community about live streaming now that Twitch has finally grown out of being a gaming platform. Justin TV was so much more diverse, live streams are so much more than just Twitch and the meta there. Edit: how some people feel about twitter is how I feel about Twitch. A company is making a genre of media uninteresting to me.
