If you're fixated on the Epstein emails, you're doing exactly what they want. You're distracted by the circus when you should be building the exit.

we should be focused on recognising who the 'current' APESTEIN is. cos there definitely is one.

Yes note the anger and move on.
Panem et circenses remains the most effective tool for mass pacification. Marcus Aurelius noted that the object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane. Withdraw your mind. Construct the citadel.
Please Sir, from your enlighted position, tell us which is the exit, because i dont see many. Who was supposed to build the exits from this nightmare seems largely compromised/compromisable. Or am I wrong? OK... Meditation, Ascetism, FOSS and all the bla bla bla is like fighting the Moloch alone with a broken stick...
If you are focused on ICE you are taking the bait. You could be building technology to track down pedophiles. Saving money in bitcoin doesn’t need much brainpower. Holding the most powerful people in the world to the fire is much more difficult.
That 'circus' includes people supposedly building your exit, like Core and Adam Back. Be vigilant, not complacent.
Exactly what they want you to believe so they get away with murder and hold high offices.

That would be interesting, but duplication of knowledge… ‘Civilization is an enormous device for economizing on knowledge. The time and effort (including costly mistakes) necessary to acquire knowledge are minimized through specialization, which is to say through drastic limitations on the amount of duplication of knowledge among the members of society.’ Thomas Sowell
Whilst there is some truth to that statement, I would argue that it assumes that there is only one "They" and that they have total control over everything. If this is actually true then there is no exit and nothing we do actually matters. It is far more likely that there are different factions of "They" and some of them are less against us than others or some of us are actually fighting back against "Them" An increasing percentage of "Us" are widening the Overton window by discussing such matters, and some of those conversations enable us to talk about exiting the system and perhaps even putting an end to "Them". In many ways, the Q anon phenomenon was a similar situation - how many people found themselves looking into things they never would have done otherwise and found their way to Bitcoin and Nostr in the process? The world is a stage and we are merely players, but spending some time reading the script does improve our performance!
thats a bit too many dimensions for my chessplay thanks you very much
you don't need "exit" if you can hold people accountable, which requires being informed. and it's not a zero-sum game, you can build exits, while staying informed, and in fact, build better exits because you are informed.
Bitcoin Core maintainers being in the Epstein emails is by far the most important thing anybody of us should be focusing on. It's not a distraction or a frivolous matter. This is the fight we've been preparing for.
Funny how nobody complained about fixating on Epstein emails until core devs were implicated. Then suddenly it's "jeeze guys why are you always posting about Epstein emails, such a waste of time lol"

Great opportunity to kill your heroes here. The next phase of Bitcoin is without these people.
If you’re upset about Jeffrey Epstein’s connection to Bitcoin, perhaps you should open up a JP Morgan Chase Account instead 🤷‍♀️

This isn’t a distraction. It’s a revelation and I’m glad eyes are glued to it sourcing all the horrendous corruption.
PLENTY OF PEOPLE ARE SIMULTANEOUSLY BUILDING THE EXIT AND TALKING ABOUT THIS SUBJECT... SIMPLISTIC VIEW IMO

Get sovereign and get out of big cities. Embrace the DIY for everything :)
This post is silly. You can do both, prosecute those who violate children and continue to build a “exit”. You know, walk and chew gum…that way pedophiles don’t go unpunished.
We've just gotten evidence that the most powerful people in the world are being blackmailed by trafficking underage girls. And you say it's just a distraction? From what - less powerful people? You are unbelievably stupid. Or have an agenda.

Pretend nothing is going on, dern. That mindset worked with the Catholic priests. Look how reformed they are. 🤔

Both can be done. Exit while making sure the weirdos get the guillotine
!!! On the one hand, i agree that one should not “fixate” on the files. But this shit is disgusting and extremely pervasive at the highest levels of society. This cannot be routed around; it must be confronted and fought. Plus, lots of us have been saying that these things are real for YEARS and i WILL be collecting apologies and concessions from friends and family who have slandered me VINDICATION and EXTERMINATION are necessary
Wrong. The "they" you describe are the very people being outed IN THE EPSTEIN EMAILS.

💯. I’m glad people are pushing back on this. Push to hyper-localize so if people act like this, you know where to find them and can put their head on a pike. View quoted note →
Absolutely. And even in non hyper local scenarios we ought to demand our tax dollars not be used to fund obviously satanic cults
Never was interested by those emails, I just read posts all over Nostr and Threads, information is flying all around.
Terrible take Hard disagree Everyone should be burning down their houses and rioting in the streets They have been fucking children for decades and still walking around free Living a good life
