I find it very interesting most of those surrounding Epstein are democrats.

A brief review of modern history tends to suggest leftists, while proclaiming altruism, tend to commit most of the evil. Take Cambodia, for example, where huge percentages of the population were slaughtered (including infants). Or the Stalinist pogroms, including the Holdomor, plus the gulag system. Or Mao’s cultural revolution. Or the USSR, where an escape attempt meant death. That is still the case in Marxist North Korea.

On balance, the leftists have murdered far more humans in the name of political ideology than any other group.

And that is ultimately evil.

Well when their political ideology boils down to absolute power sans the generation of wealth with capitalism, you get what you get. Takers.

every corporate leader that I have met are narcissists and capable of lying to anyone if they can make a buck.

I debated whether the system corrupts people or it acts like a filter and only the narcissists rise to the top, and I have concluded it it the latter.

if you see someone with an MBA or JD, you know this person has been taught by the best and knows how to lie.

All billionaires. Most corporate leaders, hiding behind shareholder duty. A higher percentage than background population but not majority of the famous.

Inherited wealth, a lack of empathy and understanding of normal people but not necessarily evil just indifferent.

Very true.
I think being fawned over is a motivation for a lot of people who want power. I also think a lot of men want power so they can get women. It's so simple but true, and the women are expected to fawn over them too. The Emperor's New Clothes is the truth.

First one was a jerk. Was used to yelling and intimidating everyone to get his way. The first day I met him, he yelled and me and cussed me out for something I had literally nothing to do with (think, like, a bird pooped on his car). Extremely controlling of his wife. I could tell he viewed her more as a possession and beneath him.

Second one was a great, great guy. Extremely chill, kind, strong moral code, absolutely devoted to his wife. I actually felt kind of bad for him, his wife was often pretty mean to him.

The second one is a good example of how even if you aren't evil if you are famous, rich, or powerful, the hangers-on around you probably are. I went to school with some people who were extremely wealthy (billionaire heirs) or famous, and the people who surrounded them were uniformly terrible, even if the person was ok.

So rich people have a thing where they like to maintain the appearance of magnanimity and graciousness all while not having to bother about the business of being the bad guy. Those tagalongs are doing the bidding of their rich friends.

Yep. Factotums, toadies. See also: agents and personal managers.

Are they?
Trump, Steve Bannon (seems to be a bestie), Attia, Prince Andrew, the finance types?
Also, politics at this level is a lot the same. Corrupt, fake and opportunistic.

Um, yeah: more precisely: yes: the majority of Epstein associates are democrats.

- Bill Gates (obviously): democrat
- Brad Karl (Weiss chairman) democrat
- Deepak Chopra (democrat)
- Harvard President (former) Larry Summer: obviously a democrat
-

Prince Andrew: this is more difficult because he is not American. But he is most certainly on the left. He is mixed up with Davos and fully behind the WEF’s leftist “great reset.””


It is clear that Epstein surrounded himself with pedophiles, and that most of them were democrats.

This thread is littered with some very broken and bitter people who haven’t escaped their own bubble.

You are hopelessly wrong and it’s genuinely sad.

After a traditional post-MBA corporate role, I took a role at an early startup for a while. This was after interviewing at several startups that seemed to have zero substance and I couldn’t even figure out what they were selling or what my job would be. I chose the one I ended up as because it seemed to actually
Have the potential to be doing something real and there were a lot of women.

It was shocking to realize the games people were playing to sustain the founder’s “vision”. The company had no substance yet it did have funding. I tried to follow my official job description for a while and completely floundered. I had been naive and didn’t understand that my role was to basically listen to the founder/CEO and tell him he was awesome and his hare brained ideas were also awesome and totally workable.

It was tragic to watch data scientists and engineers attempt to execute the founder's business plan in defiance of the laws of physics, mathematics, time, etc.

The company grew from a place where I knew everyone to 1600 people in less than a year and never got closer to reality. I panicked and quit. Shortly after, they went public and the stock basically went to zero in less than a month and then the company was acquired for its engineers and data scientists. And yet it was still called a “success” because no one had the guts to tell the rich founder man guy that he was full of sh-t.

Also he was unusually short and tubby and gave off the same intense micro-organ energy as a lot of these other guys.

Disagree. MBA here from a top program. Maybe we were not taught directly to lie, but you learn to play the game from day 1 and at my school and those of my friends, there are a lot of systems in place to cultivate that behavior. Study groups, socratic method, case studies, open book exams, presentations, interview bidding- it’s all acculturation disguised as education.

I was good at the game but hated applying it out in the real world, so I shifted sideways to a different kind of corporate career. My peers who are successful lie to everyone, including themselves. It’s a very narcissistic mindset and you either have it naturally or you learn to turn it on when needed.

That comment rung true for me. In my experience lawyers and MBAs are both liars

I don't think you can get to extreme power and/or wealth without having compromised morals and values.

So 100% of them.

More than Democrat, Epstein's pals have been Zionists. That's really the common denominator that transcends the political aisles.
