@kazani: Epstein, Western decline, and the moral collapse of the elites

Lucas Leiroz argues that the Epstein revelations matter less for who visited his island or flew on his plane than for what they show about institutional protection. He contends that such networks could only exist with political, police, judicial, and media cover, which he calls the logic of power rather than conspiracy. He claims the West can no longer hide behind the idea of gradual decline, describing instead an elite that operates outside moral limits while still deciding elections, wars, and economic policies. He concludes that after Epstein, nothing can continue as before.
