Newly released files show how Maria Farmer, who worked for Mr. Epstein in the 1990s, had urged the F.B.I. to investigate him. The case went nowhere for years.

    And most pedophiles don’t do shit, most suffer their entire life with their sexuality but would never hurt a child - those are a different kind and more often than not- not actually pedophiles

      That doesn’t excuse MAGAs. They unapologetically support and provide cover for people they know are pedophiles. That makes them pedophiles.

      If you had a roommate who was bringing home children to molest, and you refused to address it, lied to people about it, provided alibis for the offender, misdirected investigations, etc., guess what? You’re a pedophile, too.

      ALL MAGAs are pedophiles. Every last one of them.

        They are enablers, apologists or such but not pedophiles, a lot of them did molest teens or children, but you don’t have tp be a pedophile for that.

        Look, I am not tryong to cover for them or any such thing, all I am saying is, is to use words correctly, espescially psychological diagnosis such as pedophelia in the right amd defined way. MAGA is already blurring the language with their blantantly wrong use, let’s not do it ourselfs, otherwise pedophilia won’t mean anything and all.

          I’m not interested in scientific accuracy. We’ve been getting bludgeoned by, and losing to, vicious propaganda for decades, and you want to parse a simple political message?

          I’m not going to go into any layering of defenses by pedophiles or their enablers and defenders. If they are covering for Epstein and his friends in ANY way at all, then they are PEDOPHILES, plain and simple. Stop defending them, or YOU’RE a pedophile, too.

          See how this works? Get on board, or get run over. This is fucking WAR!

            You can hate someone without them having to have a universally bad description. I am not defending them, in fact I would love to have them face punishment in the most crucifiying way. And not only those on the list, but every single American Maga fascist.

            EVERY.

            SINGLE.

            ONE.

              This is the disgusting Michelle Obama Doctrine: When they go low, we go high. That’s what got MAGA elected TWICE! It’s weak and cowardly, and voters fucking HATE it. They want warriors, and that’s why people vote for MAGA, even though they are literally EVIL. What Dem voters really want, is when they go low, we kick them in the fucking teeth, REAL HARD!

              Hate has nothing to do with it. They have engaged in, and enthusiastically defended every single characterization I made. It is an accurate description of EVERY MAGA, and they should be painted with that description on bright red paint.

              We are long past politeness. They are kicking us in the balls all day every day, and you really hate it a lot, but you don’t want to protect your 'nads because you think it might offend the kicker?

              So fucking weak and infuriatingly cowardly. Who would vote for that?

              Just ew.

                Boys, boys…cool down. You both make excellent points, and I applaud you. But let’s not waste our hate on each other, it’s what republiKKKlans want, so let’s not give it to them :)

                  I’m done with weak-willed Democrats who are afraid to engage with the worst threat this nation has faced since the Civil War. They are the problem, and it’s time to solve the problem. If you aren’t willing to fight, get out of the way, and shut up. Stop trying to convince people that the better path is to be weak and wait for EVIL to finally change their ways. They won’t, they’re EVIL.

                  Ds are LOSERS, and if they want to change that, they need to stop sniffing their own farts, and get in the game.

                    I too, am less than impressed by the current crop of Dem leadership, and they are historically piss weak too. But I LOATHE the R’s who are currently destroying society as we know it, and see them as the largest threat, at this time. Once Donny 2 Dolls and his corrupt cohorts have been dealt with, then that may be the better time to deal with lickspittle Dems. As with much of life, sometimes we need to balance things and triage what is most important. Once we have dealt with the metastasizing brain tumor, then is a better time to deal with the herpes and erectile dysfunction.

                    Edit: If there’s an early opportunity to shiv Chucky Fucking Schumer, then we should definitely take that…

                Look, I don’t know who you’re arguing with but it’s not me if I am not mistaken, you reiterate ur initial statement in different profanity withput actually responding. So if you want to lash out at someone, please do so with the next random fascist or an LLM

                  It’s simple: I’m arguing with the person who stepped up and defended MAGAs for their defense of pedophiles.

                  And when you’ve resorting to whining about profanity, you’ve lost the entire argument, and exposed yourself as a church-lady type who is almost certainly a MAGA, and that makes you a PEDOPHILE.
