    Of course a lot of it’s fake.

    That’s the whole world now. Hype. Virility. Attention optimization. Influencing, whatever you want to call it. People know it, and are in on the game.

    So of course people are knowingly overhyping up the Epstein thing because they know it will hurt Trump, because it’s QAnon catnip. Just like countless right wing influencers hyped it, too, making millions off of it, while the platforms they used made billions swaying whole countries.

    Theres a course a lot of evidence of a lot of people in Epstein’s orbit, but no, clearly not every human being who stepped on the island knew what was going on. But it doesn’t matter, truth doesn’t matter; it’s just an attention game.
