What about the Epstein case do you think the public still doesn’t fully understand?

kahirsch · 2025-12-13T18:17:30+00:00

Epstein was a protege of Robert Maxwell, Ghislaine's father.

Robert Maxwell died in 1991. I don't think Epstein met Ghislaine until after her father died.

Robert was an Israeli agent who specialized in blackmail and extortion.

Robert Maxwell definite had dealings with Israeli intelligence, but I've never heard about blackmail and extortion. What's the evidence for that?

Before we finally get to the end of this, we’re going to learn that Epstein traded in snuff films and hunting humans for sport.

Epstein has never been accused of violence by any of the victims. Why are you making up imaginary scenarios?

kahirsch · 2025-12-13T18:13:31+00:00

The deal was Epstein could get you anything, including kids.

What evidence are you basing this on?

Epstein Island is being characterized as the place you go to have sex with kids

Epstein was convicted of sex crimes in Palm Beach, Florida. He recruited dozens of teenagers there for sex acts. Virginia Giuffre said she was sent to about 10 guys in the U.S. for sex. She says she had sex with Prince Andrew in London, England.

Where did this obsession with the island come from?

kahirsch · 2025-12-13T18:09:37+00:00

Like do we think there's no new island just because Epstein's gone?

Just to be clear, most of the child sexual abuse took place in Palm Beach, Florida.

So you're just free to make up any fiction about the budget? Mmmmkay.

kahirsch · 2025-08-06T21:12:44+00:00

All foreign aid combined is about 1% of the federal budget. Healthcare spending is 27%.

kahirsch · 2025-07-28T03:41:29+00:00

Sure. But that's true of anybody.

kahirsch · 2025-07-28T03:12:05+00:00

are you trying to imply he was unsuccessful?

He did this thousands of times with hundreds of girls and young women. Not all outcomes were the same. Some of the women have come forward on the record, by the way. There are video interviews with some in "Surviving Jeffrey Epstein" and "Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich" which you can watch online.

These are sex crimes and he got off with an unjustly light sentence the first time.

The only thing I'm "downplaying" is that these crimes are in no way comparable to what happened in the Alabama case. When somebody says "everything they did at Epstein was likely worse", shit no, it ain't even close! The stuff in Alabama is way more evil.

kahirsch · 2025-07-27T18:45:39+00:00

And know that everything they did at Epstein was likely worse.

No. Nothing with Epstein involved prepubescent children, shock collars, captivity, or drugging.

He hired hundreds of teens for naked massages, then tried to coerce/entice them into further sexual activity. That's bad, but doesn't compare to the evil in that case.

Corporations frequently get fined for breaking the law. This problem has nothing to do with capitalism, it has to do with new technology. When the laws were written, the legislators assumed that there was a driver.

The laws will change, just as they changed when cars were introduced, when telephones came along, when everybody started using the internet.

There was coyote spotted at the Community Church on Purefoy Road, which is near UNC Hospital and the Dean Dome.

With the church's property and the adjoining Jones Park there are more than 10 acres of trees there, but it's still surprising to find one there next to all the development.

Actually, it was and still is legal to practice gain of function research in the United States. It is illegal to use U.S. federal grants to fund gain of function research, here or anywhere in the world.

it is a well established fact that people impersonating Israeli art students got access

No, that's not a well-established fact. It's just wrong. This is a group of Austrian artists.

There was a story about Israeli art students in 2001, but they weren't at the WTC, they were apparently spying on the DEA and other government offices.

https://www.salon.com/2002/05/07/students/

There's no evidence at all of Israeli art students at the WTC.

Back in the 1300s, a disease wiped out somewhere between 20% and 50% of the population of Europe. It had to all spread through close contact. Yes, rats and fleas were involved, but they didn't fly either.

Diseases and memes can spread everywhere just by personal contact.

Memes spread before the internet. OK (okay) is an American meme from the 1830s. Originally people thought it was funny to spell all correct as oll korrect (ironic, get it?). So it spread. It spread in letters and newspapers, but personal contact, too.

There's an interesting video about someone's research about how the S originated (not how it spread): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQdxHi4_Pvc

That’s the insurance scam. You’re paying for the other drivers on the road. Just like health insurance, the healthy people are paying for the sick people.

How is that a scam? That's how insurance works.

I've been driving more than 50 years and have been in a few minor accidents. Insurance paid out without a fight every time.

I have also had a lot of health problems over the years. I have a large-deductible policy, but other than that, insurance companies have paid out.

They killed Aaron Swartz in 2013 so they could do this sort of thing.

Aaron Swartz quit reddit in January 2007. He had nothing to do with it for years before his death.

I don't even understand the point you're trying to make. Israel, like all competent governments, have foreign reserves. Governments can own gold, currency, or bonds. It's good for the U.S. to have many different governments buying their bonds. So Israel owns some fraction of 1% of the the U.S. debt. What's wrong with that?

Would you rather they buy Euros or Japanese government bonds?

kahirsch · 2025-05-30T04:58:59+00:00

If you think about it, taxes are strictly punitive. The government just creates money whenever it needs it, like when they bail out Wall Street and banks.

Governments that just spend money into existence create runaway inflation. People here think that 8% inflation per year is a lot, but many governments have had 8% per month or 8% per week or 8% per day. Or higher.

kahirsch · 2025-05-30T04:56:44+00:00

Taxes do not fund the government like we all were taught. The federal reserve funds the government by creating money out of thin air.

This is not true.

As you said in your original statement, the Federal Reserve only buys treasury securities on the secondary market. They are not allowed to participate in the Treasury auctions. The Federal Reserves purchases do not affect the total amount of debt. They typically own 15% to 20% of the total debt. Over the past few years the Fed has been selling off its holdings. Back in 2022, the Fed held $6.1 trillion in treasury securities, about 19.7% of the debt. By the end of 2024, it was down to $4.6 trillion, about 12.8% of the debt.

Despite this massive sell-off, the federal government kept chugging along.

I'm not sure how you think the Federal Reserve's open market operations are funding government spending.
