Was Jeffrey Epstein a Spy?

I don't get it. Gates has never come across as completely depraved (greedy, maybe) so I don't think he was using Epstein's services, but I can tell you in working class US, if you find out that anyone did what Epstein did, you never talk to them again because they are a predator, much less befriend them.
What was Gates doing and why is there a collective sigh about it? Tech does not care. Microsoft does not care.

Gates is either careless, foolish, a creep, or all three. But this kind of bullshit is the stuff that made him the absolute worst person to head up things like virus response and we need to get these predators out of industries.
Maybe Gates just has the wealth and skill to craft a PR image that covers up his depravity, so that you dismiss the conclusion of his affiliation with Epstein even after being confused as to what other explanation it might have.
Many such cases.
The MS crew whoring around in the 80s was a well known thing. Zebras dont change their stripes and none of this matters wrt to having a clue/foresight about vaccines and doing good things with wealth/influence.
It can kind of be perceived as the trolly problem in real life. Do you pull the lever and get one person's blood on your hands, but result in 4 met lives saved? Or do you stay morally pure by refusing to kill someone... and let the 5 people die by your inaction?
Gates does strike me as an analytical, ends-justify-the-means kind of guy
Seems like the opportunity cost of fundraising is high.
Non-charitable attribution? They like young girls.
Melinda does care.
Or there is something going on that we don't know about. It seems unlikely that all the politics in the world is conducted in places that random people like us have access to.
- Alexander Acosta has been quoted as saying that he was told Epstein “is intelligence” and to “leave it alone”
- Ghislaine Maxwells father, who died under mysterious circumstances, was very likely to have been involved with Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency
- Collecting blackmail material on powerful people is intelligence agency 101, Epsteins trafficking ring had scores of that.
- Epstein got large amounts of funding from Lesley Wexner, with no logical reason ever given as to why. Wexner by coincidence, is one of the founding members of the MEGA group, a group of businessmen who donate money to causes related to Israel’s national interests.
Occam’s razor says the simplest and most likely explanation is that Epstein worked for Mossad, and was running a sex trafficking ring in order to collect blackmail material on powerful people for the Mossad to wield.
If i remember correctly it's unclear which particular agencies Epstein could be a part of/have cover from, so it's better to not point at Israel alone
All normal. He did that. Wexler screwed up majorly by letting Epstein have "power of attorney" rights on Wexler's accounts.
It seems Epstein was stealing money from Wexler, who was just not interested enough to notice....if the current round of documentaries are a fixed point of the story, of course.
He also had ties to Mossad.
Sounds like a societal excuse to hide shit.
> McGraw-Hill Inc., long the subject of takeover speculation, quieted those rumors somewhat yesterday when it said it had signed a standstill agreement with Robert Maxwell, the British entrepreneur whose empire includes Macmillan Inc., and would form a joint publishing venture with him.
The username "maxwellhill" also makes total sense knowing this.
There seems to be a limited number on ebay and amazon at hte moment for the £10 mark which seems far more reasonable.
You're speaking like that's almost certainty, which is little more than speculation.
The more reasonable assumption is that he knew he was ruined, his life was essentially over, and became suicidal because of his lack of a future. If he had real dirt on anyone, it's quite possible that they were just other forgettable rich dudes like himself with no significant power or influence.
Bells didn't start going off until this part of your comment.
No.
How so? Jeffrey Epstein was rich, but that was about it. What kind of power or importance did he have? AFAIK, he only got rich by leeching off other even richer dudes. I'm sure most of his friends were the same. Not exactly the kind of people who I think would resort to murder (of a guy in solitary in a maximum security prison), or could pull it off and leave barely a trace if they tried.
IIRC, he was in a SHU, which is closer to the former than the latter.
> where he had been taken off suicide watch, and whose camera system, which was covering his corridor, was out of order. Plus the guards didn’t really seem to pay much attention.
That's definitely conspiracy theory fodder, but little more than that.
A common trend in this thread seems to be labeling speculation as "conspiracy theory", seemingly to get out of having to justify one form of speculation is more valid than another.
Why are statements-of-fact "conspiracy theory fodder"?
Conspiracy theory fodder are facts that offer no evidence of a conspiracy, but that the conspiracy-prone can't help but use as springboards for baseless speculation about one.
The problem is that those are way more common in american prisons than you would hope. Meaning we can't really know whether epstein was executed or just allowed to die by an apathetic and malevolent prison system.
That doesn't excuse the absolute lack of effort by Barr and Garland to try to find anything out.
