“[Deepak] Chopra and Epstein were in regular contact, joking about picking up girls, attending retreats, brokering lucrative deals and relaxing at Epstein’s residences. Part guru, part wingman, Chopra’s advice to Epstein includes the now widely circulated comments: “God is a Construct. Cute Girls are Real.” “Come to Israel with us. Relax and have fun with interesting people. If you want use a fake name. Bring your girls.” “Anything we share is between us. I share nothing with anyone but trust you.”
When Epstein informed Chopra that a woman had dropped a civil case claiming that he and Donald Trump had sexually assaulted her when she was age 13, he responded “good.”
In a recent conference Melanie Trump denied any connection to Jeffrey Epstein. Here’s some speculation why she spoke up.
AG Pam Bondi, queen of the Epstein cover-up, is out of the administration. It’s true her Toddler-toadying successor Todd Blanche has declared he’s so over the Epstein files so it’s not like he’s an improvement (he’s also said that if the Toddler fires him, his response will be “I love you, sir.”). Even so “it is good when people who show a disregard, or even disdain, for the rule of law leave this government — our government — and it’s OK to take a moment to appreciate that.” And Rep. Nancy Mace is calling bullshit on Blanche (though she’s still a transphobe).
“The same man who built an empire trafficking girls was also grooming boys to hate them. He monetized girls’ bodies and radicalized boys against them. He hunted girls and recruited boys. Those aren’t separate phenomena. They run on the same logic. If you normalize the idea that women are owed, that consent is negotiable, that power excuses everything, you don’t just get one trafficking ring. You get an ecosystem. Epstein didn’t have to abuse every girl personally to profit from a world that already excused men who did.” — from an article about how Epstein promoted the manosphere. Which may also explain henchwoman Ghislaine Maxwell’s online activity.
As noted at that link, Epstein made the world worse for women and gender equality. It’s not just him, though. If you remember #metoo, you remember how many women spoke up and said “me too!” They need the support of the system and of individual men: “It would be good if courage changed sides too. This isn’t impossible: one of my male friends, discovering the sexual abuse (this time of young men) rife in his faculty, became a whistleblower, sticking to the facts through counter-accusations and gaslighting. I think, too, of many other male friends, who love their partners, raise their boys well and must want more for their daughters than that they learn, aged fourteen, how to give a rich old guy a great blow job.”
