I don't understand why they didn't expose Epstein when they had the chance over 3 years ago...

Fake News??????????????

Did I get it right this time ?

OMG, a news outlet didn't run a story at some time, whenever. WGAF, TV news is 95% garbage anyway.

Hm. We are talking people with tons of Power, money, connections. Why the heck do you think sexual assault stories about Trump or Clinton or Harvey Weinstein, etc. get catch and killed for so long.

Hey, here's a ringing endorsement by Donald Trump October 2002:

I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.

maybe this has something to do with it. Not necessarily the FAKE part of it, but why things have gotten to where they are..

^ Perhaps were are getting a little off the original topic, but that was an EXCELLENT ted-talk link!

I always thought Google's original motto, something like 'Do no evil" was pretty odd! and was always skeptical. It's funny how like 8-10 years ago, even 5 years ago, everyone was hailing the tech giants and barons of silicon valley as some kind of force for the good of the world. Now I think the real truth is being uncovered. Our data is harvested, sold, and manipulated and it's not about 'saving the world' or 'doing no evil.' It's about propaganda and manipulation to the highest bidder. Tons & tons of cash.

edit: I always liked the term "digital sharecropping" -- so on point

Reminds me of this excellent series, watchable on You Tube, if you want to get into history: The Century of Self, by Adam Curtis

Sigmund Freud's American nephew, Edward Bernays- who invented the 'public relations' profession in the 1920s. He was the first person to use Freud's ideas to manipulate the masses. He showed American corporations how they could make people want things they didn't need by systematically linking mass-produced goods to their unconscious desires.

Man that Sheryl Attkisson video was GREAT!

I just can't imagine a world where getting Hillary Clinton elected was worth allowing Jeffrey Epstein to continue to ruin young girls lives for another 3+ years is a viable choice.
