This is useless without the actual files. Leak them already Elon.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 6 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Everyone paying attention already knew that Elon.

[–] the_three_tomatoes@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

Elon is like the mental age of a child minus the obvious sensibilities of a child, like having a sense of empathy or respect for others.

[–] MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca 33 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

thanks for saying shit we already knew, and confirming that you also knew yet still supported him while knowing he was a pedophile.

[–] EverXIII@lemmy.world 1 points 40 minutes ago

Well said. Totally agree with you. Bunch of unmentionables, that’s what they are…

[–] MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca 8 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Just putting back rare earth metals, where stone age people could easily find it later

I don’t know why he says this like it’s a revelation, everyone knows

[–] MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca 9 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

musk basically just told everyone he knew trump was a pedo and still helped him become president.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 14 hours ago

What, Musk hasn't thought something through before blabbing about it on the internet? I'm shocked.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 46 points 1 day ago

Post the files then you fucking asshole.

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

im so insanely confused, i have not been in fedi in a bit... can somebody give a leangthy explaination?

[–] scbasteve7@lemm.ee 5 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Trump and Elon broke up (tldr, Elon is bad for optics and they both are sensitive with fragile egos) and now they're beefing. But because they're both man children, it's through social media.

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 7 hours ago

what are they beefing about?

I'm assuming Musk did this after he removed his own name from them.

[–] Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (3 children)

He's the richest man in the world, he doesn't need to be involved with Epstein at all, he's rich enough to fund his own pedo ring

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago (5 children)

I am a little dismayed that the world's awareness of sex-trafficking and systemic child abuse seem to begin and end with Epstein.

Does everyone think that this kind of vile luxury for the wealthy was centered around ONE person? There are billions of people on Earth, it's not only still going on, but the ringleaders are celebrating that the world's attention is on just one dude who was caught and killed for it.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 14 hours ago

Well it's sort of hard to obsess over cases we don't know about. What do you want from people, self-funded investigations?

If you have evidence then obviously you know what to do with it. When it comes out people can talk about that case too otherwise I don't really know what you want.

[–] scbasteve7@lemm.ee 1 points 13 hours ago

My assumption is that he was the Tiger Woods of pedophilic sex trafficking. He was the best, most well connected, and most "secret".

Ofc there are others, but they probably don't have the traffic and volume that Epstein did.

That is just optimistic thinking of course. There is the possibility that he was the least known, and there's bigger badder traffickers still hiding in the dark.

[–] Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think people are obsessing over this case because a bunch of rich and powerful people got publicly exposed as a part of the same ring, but there's certainly way more out there. I'm sure a bunch other politicians, billionaires, clergymen, celebrities, and a whole host of other people with influence has their own rings all over the world.

Waking up to this was like Super Christmas.

[–] matdave@lemmy.ml 5 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Unfortunately it will be more like we all lose

[–] boughtmysoul@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

Let me have something, man.

The big bomb would be a paper trail showing how they rigged the election.

We've already seen the documents that say trump is a rapist paedophile.

A big bomb would have been definite proof that Trump isn't in the Epstein files.

Stating the obvious at the other hand isn't.

this is political theater, planned and staged infighting. and the liberals are going to absolutely EAT IT UP. the reality is that Trump has always been the fall guy, the scapegoat, the lightning rod.

the ownership class utilized him to concentrate power, they use him as a distraction, and now they can use him at a scapegoat. they want to pretend to "switch teams" and get on our good side, so we forget how much they were the ones who hurt us.

when you see this, just try to remind people of that. remind them who is holding us down.

[–] MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca 3 points 20 hours ago

if musk honestly thinks we're gonna forget he's nowhere near as smart as i thought he was.

Oh musk, just wait until ICE knock on your door and deport you back to where you came from ~~arpartheid africa~~ ~~nazi germany~~ El Salvador.

[–] Griffus@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But... Did not everyone practically already know this?

It kind of rings hollow when he was bringing his child around the guy while Donald wasn't releasing the files, along with being one of his biggest cheerleaders.

Everyone should remember that Elon doesn't care about political parties. He could give a shit less about the right or the left. He's in it for the money.

He played the right, getting an idiot elected who would allow him to gut the agencies auditing his companies. Now when he's done with them and his base is upset with him for selling out, he's pivoting back and trying to appease them.

It has always been about the money. Fuck Elon Musk.

Of course he is. Though, to be fair, it's not the first time he called someone he's mad at a "pedo guy".

On the other hand, I'm sure he knows a thing or two about Epstein's associates.

The only way this could get funnier is for the White House to release the Epstein files containing Elon out of spite.

"water is wet" ahh

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 160 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Beside the facts that everyone already assumed this:

Musk apparantly knew this for certain AND still decided to support him.

My favourite thing about this is just how thoroughly predictable it was.

And I don't mean in hindsight either, tons of people called it the moment Elon started hanging around Trump.
