How are you coping with Epstein news? (not a debate thread)

had a cry yesterday, made some art.

Unfortunately many of the people who vilify me for my opinions still get their "information" from the CBC. It's amazing to behold.

It is true. Canadians are really holding onto the narrative. Lots of Americans as well. These Epstein files may get some people's attention but honestly I am having a difficult time imagining that the Stockholm that grips most will ever let go of a lot of these people. It is really hard to socialize these days.

Very happy to see that people are finally understanding what this is. I cried many tears over the years for these victims. I have known for a long time and have been called crazy when I tried to speak about it.

If these people aren't held to account - which I have limited hope of - I can't imagine what will come next. The government has known about this for decades and done nothing about it besides silence those who tried to warn others. It will be up to the general populace to force the government's hand in putting an end to this.

And still not being talked about on mainstream media, who are still focused on left vs. right and throwing a few scapegoats under the bus, but on social media, the truth really is coming out.

The left right debate just shows people aren't taking this seriously, or they are using it for other motives. None of which is about the victims. And , in my opinion, it won't make change. What's clear is that this isn't about left or right, although those of us who have been sexually abused/exploited already knew this. It's about men and power and how little girls and women are held in regard.
But the 'left v right' debate just ignores all that.
That infuriates me.

I'm glad you hold hope.
I hold little hope.

It blows my mind that the only person in prison about all of this is female.

I can totally see why you would feel that way from what has come out so far on mainstream media. But if you expand into the further information that is being revealed, you'll see there is so much more. It's about satanic ritual abuse of children and so, so much more. I'm very tired or would give examples, but I want to make sure they are accurate and I'm just too tired. Women are complicit in the cult that has been running the world, too. Truly. Remember I grew up in a satanic cult. The women are as bad as the men. This is not a gender issue. This will become clear very soon.

I'm glad you hold hope.
I hold little hope.

That's the black pilling that can send me into a tailspin of despair. All the people who see little or no hope. I basically crawled into a hole and didn't talk to anyone for the past year, because of it. Until I realized it has nothing to do with whether there is anyone we can trust in institutions. It has to do with the general public. If they are waking up, we have every reason to hope. If they're not, yeah, I'll throw in the towel.

It blows my mind that the only person in prison about all of this is female.

Some of the worst abusers are female. Wait just a bit.

Left vs. right does infuriate me though, I'm with you there. That's part of the illusion.

Mod Note:
Just a reminder, folks - there is a political venting thread, and you’re welcome to take political discussion there. If you’d like to start your own thread to work through other specific Epstein-related issues, that’s okay as well.

However, the purpose of this thread is to discuss how you’re coping with Epstein in the news.

Specifically:

this is not a place to debate the truth or politics of them.

There's so much, and it's all so, so bad. Just scrolling IG is dangerous now and impossible to get away from it.

Frankly, I just doodle satire about his underlings who stayed in the shadows.

You're right. Sorry.

I think the lack of accountability on the part of everyone involved (along with the general lack of accountability for anything in this administration) has added exponentially to my fears, my anxieties, and my lack of hope.

Yes, and I think it is feeding people's anger and rage as well which makes this feel like a very dangerous place to be while living day to day life.

So im looking into this for the first time literally rn. Its affecting me more than I expected it to. My (adult) trauma is was an adult for obv but it kinda started off in the same kinda way (bring a friend). Im also finding it hard to deal with how I defo would have gone along as a teen and honestly wouldnt have registered a lot of the stories told as trauma if theyd happened to me (weird childhood i guess). I do realise how theyre traumatic to people and bad etc etc. Its really just that im confused about my own experiences because these things wouldnt have registered to me as bad enough to note them.

Again, to reiterate. My own reaction to my own shit. My objective reaction to the crimes committed is completely different.
