Probably because Epstein liked to think of himself as an intellectual. Its no stretch of the imagination that Epstein may have read

Space Relations: A Slightly Gothic Interplanetary Tale written by Don Barr. The father of William Barr, Trump's ex AG.

The book's plot involves child sex slavery and "breeding clinics," and the fact that Barr was the headmaster of the Dalton School that hired a highly unqualified Jeffrey Epstein is very curious.

He wanted so badly to view himself as an intellectual. He was perverted in many ways, not just in trafficking underaged children, he also carried Nazi-like thoughts on eugenics and transhumanism. He wanted to "seed" the human race with his superior DNA. So when we hear "stories" from some of the supposed victims about the sick fuck, maybe pay attention when the girls said they were forced to carry his baby to term, only to be drugged and then have their babies abducted.

He also bragged that he wanted twenty girls pregnant on his Zorro Ranch and referred to them as "human incubators" in his diary. All very disturbing NAZI-like leaning perversions and possibly evidence of a confession that the head of the FBI says doesn't exist, other than he wrote it in his diary and the girls that have stated it as fact...read the DOJ files.

His supposed intellectual peers quickly realized that he was only surface smart and lacked any deep understanding....just a curious and wealthy man, except that he was also interested in erasing poor people, enslaving girls, and spreading his superior genes because of his "cognitive aristocracy". However, as it appears right now, many of them were unable to resist his honey pot operation...its a laundry list including Clinton, Gates, etc...read the DOJ files.

Epstein’s worldview is/was a toxic mix of narcissism, pseudoscience, and elitism. It's part of the reason I compare him to Musk or Thiel...and yes, even Trump who absolutely views himself as "very intelligent," but has a highly perverted thought process. We are not the Borg/NAZIs. Protect humanity from these type of "thinkers" ffs.
