Is... uh... is now a good time to talk about this?

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 week ago (3 children)

There are few times when you can justifiably go after a person because of something a relation did. As much as I hate Elon, he's not culpable for whatever his brother has or hasn't done, unless he participated somehow.

Let's not stoop.

As much as I hate Elon, he’s not culpable for whatever his brother has or hasn’t done

Elon is a known horndog and sex pest. I think it's less "he's responsible" and more "he's just as mixed up in the Lolita Express gang as any of these assholes".

Incidentally, Gislaine Maxwell was at Chelsea Clinton's wedding. I don't think that means Chelsea is a rapist. But I do think Bill is, and this kind of close relationship further illustrates the circle all these people ran in.

Sure, but that was about Elon's brother. Surely if Elon was involved with Epstein there will be evidence; it's not like he was shy about being photographed.

This guilty by association stuff feels like an witch trial evidence, when there's plenty of stuff to hang Elon with that he did himself.

This guilty by association stuff

My guy, you don't need guilt by association to find people who have accused Elon of being a sex pest.

Why are you pretending otherwise?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I'm not. Don't put words in my mouth.

Someone posted a picture of an article about Elon's brother. Elon's brother's sons are not Elon's. Hunter's crimes are not Joe's.

Elon's absolutely a sex pest; why are you trying to prove it with an article about his brother?

Not OP here- Did you miss the second half of the sentence of theirs you quoted?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Do people think we won't remember the second half of the sentence lmao like who does op think he's fooling

Unless you know something I don't, Monica was consenting the entire time.

And don't say "he used his position of power to force her". She said in multiple interviews that she enjoyed it and felt excited. The only time she started to feel negative feelings is whdn Linda Tripp got involved and betrayed her.

These are Monicas own words. It wasn't rape.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

These are Monicas own words.

Okay, now ask Juanita Broaddrick, Eileen Wellstone, and Sandra Allen James among others.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The differences in power between them was great enough that even if it wasn't rape it was very unethical.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Oh, sure. No arguement from me there. I just hate it when people diminish what words mean.

Unethical? Sure.

It was also unethical when Jerry Seinfeld at age 37 dated a 17 year old during the height of Seinfeld.

Also not rape. Nor illegal. Both of which I've heard various people claim.

It also deletes words like "awful" and "predatory" from conversations. Despite being objectively true, I never hear people say those words about Clinton, or Seinfeld, or any of the other similar situations.

And on a personal note, I don't believe Micheal Jackson did anything wrong with kids. As in, I don't think any events actually took place. Only three people were ever said to be victims. Two of them were later proven to be parents looking for a payday. And the third was Macully Culken. And he's directly said over multiple decades, both as a kid, and later as an adult, that MJ never did anything wrong or inappropriate.

So I think Micheal Jackson had to live his whole adult life being falsely accused of being a pedophile and a rapist when he never was.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

The children could have been molested and their parents were also looking for a payday. They could both be true. I have no idea, I'm just saying that one doesn't cancel out the other.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Mac is both Paris and Bigi's godparent I believe

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I've got very unethical. Can I get a "oh hail no"?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

The thing is Bill does not seem to be a kiddie diddler. Aside from Monica Lewinsky and a Miss America contestant they tend to be later twenties to whatever his current age was. They affairs tended to be with women who were pretty and young whereas his alleged assault victims are all adults too.

He's vile but not a pedo

How low is the bar that we're at "sexual assault isn't such a big deal if they're over eighteen".

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They didn't say it wasn't a big deal, they said it wouldn't be pedophilia. Big difference there

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nobody was talking about pedophilia before they brought it up.

Epstein trafficked and abused plenty of older women, too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Really? I didn't know that, his pedophilia is more well-known I guess. Thanks for informing me. Either way, you're allowed to bring up new topics in a conversation.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Epstein trafficked kids so I dont think Clinton's association with Epstein was for sex stuff sorry if i was not clear

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You gotta understand that Elon as a business person has never been just Elon — it has always been Elon and Kimbal. They are thick as thieves, friend, there isn't much humanity to be sqwozed here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do we accept the same about Hunter and Joe? Certainly father and son are just as close.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 week ago

Its a familial rot. They are all guilty, that is the point.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I never even wondered if muskrat had any siblings, he has such an "only child" energy that it didn't seem worth even thinking about. Gotta read up on them (he apparently has a sister too). Can only guess what weird shit will come up.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The stepsister is more interesting because she's Elon's step-mother now.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Classic Woody Allen maneuver?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Allen was never his current wife's step dad. Woody never married nor lived with Mia Farrow. Both are weird but Musk is grosser

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Got it, thank you for the clarification.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He adopted her with Farrow, right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, he likely couldn't do that as Andre Previn, her actual adoptive father, was alive until a few years ago. Allen and Farrow's relationship was really weird and he and Soon-Yi supposedly never met until she was 18.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Soon-Yi was adopted in 1978.

Farrow's marriage to André Previn ended in 1979. In 1980, Farrow began a long-term relationship with filmmaker Woody Allen.[11] Allen later adopted two of Farrow's adopted children: Dylan Farrow and Moses Farrow. In 1987, Mia Farrow gave birth to Ronan Farrow.

So legally not her step-dad. Still pretty skeezy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Yes, without question it is at best very uncomfortable
