My brother in christ, the Epstein files are distracting you from all the awful shit the US does at this point.
(The Epstein files are also gruesome. It’s just… At this point it seems like it’s just an excuse for a bunch of people to not confront US foreign policy."

    It’s tactical: they don’t care about imperialism, so they position it as a distraction, therefore caring about it is undignified and ignoring it is actually fighting trump. Why I don’t like people here plausibly cosigning it with “Epstein coalition” or stuff.

    I also want people to know that flooding this site with poorly sourced and spurious propaganda about how great Iran is doing isn’t helping Iran. Please do that on reddit or someplace. I pretty much skim any post that’s not written by marmite

      Agree on both, it’s literally been 3 or 4 days, and we are bottom of the rung on the information barrel

      As for the Epstein thing, I’m going insane, because it’s as you put it, those who argue it’s a distraction do it in a manner that tries to immediately devalue any support to Iran, even if they’re also not picking America in the fight, except they only trust western sources so they’re basically pro-west with even more cognitive dissonance in the baggage
