What frustrates me about Epstein is that everyone just wants to find out who was gooning on teenage girls: hopefully their political enemies. The real lesson we should have been learning was not “who was a creep”, rather “why are wealthy creeps allowed to get away with shit like this”?
I feel like a scandal of rich privilege could have been helpful for the Nation, oh well.
Ahh, abstract thinking. That’s your problem, the people who vote Conservative… well they can’t. Manage to think abstractly, that is. Anything beyond blue = boy and pink = girl is just too much for their tiny little brains to wrap around.
why are wealthy creeps allowed to get away with shit like this
Because they are wealthy. Wealth buys lawyers, accountants, politicians, private security, private planes, private islands. Law enforcement resources are finite, a sufficiently motivated and very wealthy person can exploit any system.
Republicans are morally bankrupt? next you’ll be telling me that the sky is blue and water is wet.
Oops, better watch out about that last statement you made there!
The party running on moral bankruptcy, does something morally bankrupt. Voters who vote for it are mildly outraged, but will keep voting for them because of morals.
When everthing is a joke, nothing is a joke.
We have been slowly boiling in a pot of irony since the 90s. It’s really fucked a lot of people up, IMO.
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
–Jean-Paul Sartre
Am I the only one who thinks that getting rick rolled is something that should’ve been stopped in like the 90s??
You mean before YouTube existed? Back when downloading a picture took minutes?
A 90s Rick roll would have been someone putting the music video on VHS, then mislabeling it, then sharing it.
Tbf, waiting a day n a half for a video to load, only for it to be a Rick roll would have been way funnier. Too bad the meme didn’t exist yet then.
And that’s only after you found the right video codec, and replaced your sound card because yours was outdated.
No, in the 90s a rickroll was goatse, tubgirl, lemon party, blue waffle, pain Olympics, etc
Google them at your own risk
No, only goatse existed in the '90s, and that’s 1999. Everything else on your list was from the 2000s.
Imagine being the historian researching these for dates…
Knowyourmeme.com is the Rosetta Stone of our time.
Not even joking about that.
Wasn’t it a duck roll back then?
Sigh… newbies have no appreciation of Internet culture.
This is a “'90s Rickroll:”
(According to knowyourmeme.com it’s actually from the mid-2000s; before that, bait-and-switch links weren’t really a thing.)
Nobody likes a pedant
Excuse me, good sir, but your premise is incorrect. I do.
Mocking justice for victims with memes? A disgraceful low for public representatives.

Body slammed?
