What I give a fuck about is people watering down the concept of paedophilia to include victims that aren't anywhere near to meeting the clinical or pathological definition just so that they can falsely augment the severity of an offender's offending in return for more clicks/outrage.
Epstein was a nonce. He's done enough horrible, nasty shit as it is. We don't need to manufacture more horrible nasty shit. Doing so suggests that the *actual* horrible nasty shit he was doing wasn't sufficiently horrible/nasty enough.
Epstein was a bad man, but let's not act like he was Ian Watkins raping literal babies and toddlers bad. That does a massive fucking disservice to those victims.

I agree, there's a difference - but all your prior posts make it look like you think that sex trafficking underage teen girls for rape *wasn't very bad*.

But calling him a paedophile almost serves to obfuscate the crimes that he was *actually* guilty of, which does nobody any favours. Particularly his actual victims.
Anyway, back to my original point. None of these 'files' or 'lists' we're going to get access to is going to make us any of the wiser. It's all just salacious misdirection to keep the tabloid readers distracted.

- stop calling the victims underage young *women*
They were legally children. Some as young as 14.

dozens of young girls were held captive and raped by the men Epstein flew in. one who lodged her story tried to escape by swimming the open sea from little st james. Epsten organised a search party to recapture her and confiscate her passport.
but hey, didnt that fox news megyn kelly say it wasn't a big deal and they all looked old, that's the sentiment tony will get behind
