    I’m not real big on conspiracy theories.

    The video being lost around the original attempt is rather suspect, but him finding something to hang himself with again… He should have been in a paper gown in a padded room. We have tons and tons of suicidal people in asylums and jail that are not given an opportunity to hang themselves.

    Someone as high profile as him and with a cell mate?

    I’m not saying he 100% didn’t kill himself, but It sure as hell looks like somebody went through a lot of trouble to provide him opportunity.

    The hidden people on the list that makes this list so inconsequential are the same exact people with the type of reach it would need to make sure he didn’t start naming names.

      He doesn’t need to name names, because they have his computers, documents, etc. This conspiracy theory is as full of holes as QAnon shit.

        Yeah, no need to answer anything I point out just put your hands over your ears and tell me I’m QANON and full of shit that’ll really make your point and help your position here.

        Come to think of it maybe there’s a reason you’re getting all the down votes…

          “Conspiracy theories” have ironically enough become weaponized as a thought terminating cliche. Am I supposed to not wonder what about his guards and what they were doing, or the camera feeds, or the people getting paid six figures to handle his case, or the dozens of other loose ends?

          There are enormous efforts being taken to gaslight people out of their curiosity about this case.

          I also responded to your “points”

          The downvotes are just “rich people bad” shit, same as ever.

              And yet your take here has nothing to do with the reality of Epstein’s crimes nor his suicide. It has nothing to do with the actual suicides passed off as conspiracies.

            Hopping into this conversation to say: that person is right; I’m not downvoting you because “rich people bad”. I’m downvoting you because you aren’t engaging in this discussion to share ideas and understand the other person. Your approach in this discussion is very much one of shutting down thinking that opposes yours. That doesn’t get a dialog going; it ends it. You can do with that as you like, but I thought I’d speak up for myself so you don’t mischaracterize my downvote.

              Conspiracy theory thought is mental poison and should be shut down. Not all thinking is equal.

              I wouldn’t engage a “flat earther” in a meaningful dialogue, and I would caution you against it as well. It’s chess with a pigeon, at best

              Also, here’s the comment I received directly before yours, lest you think I was just making that part up
