Rightwing influencers indignant over FBI claim that Jeffrey Epstein’s client list doesn’t exist
Some have demanded that Trump fire attorney general Pam Bondi, who had earlier said client list was sitting on her desk
Rightwing influencers in the US who are often aligned with Donald Trump are angry that a joint justice department and FBI memo has dismissed the existence of a “client list” in the case against late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The disgraced financier killed himself in a jail cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center in New York City in 2019 while awaiting prosecution on child sex-trafficking and conspiracy charges.
Almost ever since, Epstein’s death has been the subject of conspiracy theories on the right, including a supposed “client list” that he purportedly used to blackmail wealthy co-conspirators.
You're viewing a single thread.
was happy when I checked r/conservative yesterday (I know I shouldn't check). and practically all the comments were about how they were disappointed, or actually starting to understand that Trump is in the list or protecting his buddies.
However, when I checked today, lots of top comments were peddling a conspiracy theory about how Trump is under threat of the deep state, and if he releases it he and his family will get murdered. There had to be some AstroTurfing injecting conspiracy theories.
When they say Reddit is all bots they're not kidding. Especially the "mainstream" subs.
I'm curious about the psyche of reactionaries. but holy fuck, that was some serious AstroTurfing.
And because they're reactionaries, it will work.
IE, reactionaries are a mental disease
It really is.
And no i refuse.
they openly claim that empathy is a sin.
literal sociopaths
No. They're fascists. Its worse.
Anyone who is willing to consider the idea that their Dear Leader isn't the perfect reincarnation of Christ gets banned from there so the mods must have had a field day with that one.
r/cons is almost always run by russian mods and bots.
Almost?
it's distopian seeing the propaganda machinery turn on.
seeing reactionaries having a day to think for themselves, then come to their own ideas and... nope, they just turn on the propaganda machinery, no independent thought.
the russian bots drum up the shit stirring in that sub. theres like some other subs ive seen, donald, republican, newnormal, trueunpopularopinion that popped last year.
it's just so plainly obvious that there is so much AstroTurfing, how dumb can humans be.
(rethorical question, human stupidity trully is an unlimited resource)
and yes the normal politics, news and other subs get astroturfed to an extent.
and practically all the comments were about how they were disappointed,
Pffft, now they know how I felt when Trump was elected.
