Related discussion[1]. Also, funny how this popped up 30 minutes after a report on Gates' ties with Epstein was posted[2].

I really don't think those things were related. The Wyoming reactor story has already popped up many times and there have been several dupes on the front page. People submit them and upvote them because they haven't seen the previous ones, it's as simple as that.

I unflagged your post; I don't have time to look at it because there is Tank Man drama and YC drama right now and Epstein drama is too much on top. But it's not off topic in principle. It's only probably off topic.

Understood. My comment was mostly tongue-in-cheek. Thank you for unflagging.

You forgot to mention that _you_ posted it.

Please don't post conspiracy theories.

How is that a conspiracy theory? There's pretty clear evidence in the article that there is likely a connection as far back as the early 2000's.

Epstein has connections with a lot of people. Not all of them were engaging in nefarious behavior

Billionaires have their own private jet sharing, and Epstein provided a lot of funding to the science community.

Epstein was shady and connections to him should be scrutinized and researched , as they will be with Gates. But to think that we trying to cover up your post with this news is silly. The story by OP is genuinely newsworthy IMO.

newsworthy, but the hint that it's a dupe (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27374840 ) is correct. The suggestion that it being posted again has to do with their post is of course laughable.
