It’s not like Jeff Bezos had private dinners with Jeffrey Epstein or invited Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell to his private, invitation only, weekend retreat at a private resort he rented out.

Oh wait, he did exactly that and probably a bunch more.

    Beginning to think that Jeffery Epstein was at the center of a massive financial and influence peddling network that reached into the highest levels of business and politics.

    Well, now that we know this picture exists, I’m sure someone will be doing something about it.

      When Epstein died I didn’t think much of it. What surprised me was lots of non-conspiracy theory friends were diving head first into the conspiracy. As the years have went by and more info leaked, yeah, there was definitely something big going on. We know Elon Musk lied numerous times about knowing Epstein and Maxwell, only to be proven by others testimony he did in fact know them, stayed at Epstein’s Manhattan mansion, probably meet with Maxwell for “kung fu” practice, etc.

      I even believe that the whole “pedo guy” incident with Musk was actually a coy attempt to keyword search flood “Elon Musk Pedo” with search results for that nonsense. We’ve seen other famous people do stuff like that to keyword bury topics, I’m sure Musk was aware of the technique. And he won the lawsuit because he was rich enough to fight a freedom of speech claim.

    It’s a deliberate propaganda. On Instagram, I see posts that glaze the billionaires but hardly any posts that puts them on the bad light.

      Remember: there are no good billionaires. You don’t become a billionaire by being nice, fair or anything we associate with being a good person. Even those who inherited billions from their family are often fucked in the head (John du Pont of Foxcatcher fame) as a result of it. Not to mention being born into such a family instantly gives you access to opportunities none of us plebs could ever gain regardless of our merit. Bezos ex-wife is sort of ok since she is adamant about giving away the bulk of her fortune, however, she is still complicit in helping to create the monster that is Amazon, which ironically destroyed the very thing she proclaims to love (literature and book stores.)

      Treat them all as if they’re evil slime, the bulk are. That way you may be pleasantly surprised when you come across a “good” one like Scott.

    And it’s worth pointing out that the photo of Ghislaine Maxwell and Elon Musk is everywhere but this photo of Bezos and Maxwell is much rarer to see.

    Reminder these people know full well the implications of such a photo, and will have done a lot to avoid such photos ever happening

    If you see one, there’s probably a thousand they avoided

    And yet he is so overt about his penis fetish.

    Also certain AI say this is two images stitched together.

      Nope. Its a real and verified image. Perhaps the AI detector means I’ve supplemented the original photo with additional text in order to make it a meme. That much is true, the original photo doesn’t have text in Impact font floating above and below them.

        The photo is likely from around 2012-2016 IIRC. Around the same time the photo of Ghislaine Maxwell and Elon Musk was taken.
