yeah but the question is "where do they meet now?"

because lets face it, all the rape, pedophilia, murder, emails, etc didn't suddenly just stop because one guy "killed himself". Someone replaced him.

I want to know who the new guy is and where they all go now.

The crazy part is people that rich were so not worried about their communications that they didn't even bother to encrypt their emails, or host their own communication servers so ensure the data wouldn't get turned over immediately if something went wrong.

encryption merely gives officers an opportunity to use the wrench attack (https://xkcd.com/538/), but wealth beyond all necessity gives one full immunity against the law in the places where these people live.

[–] dansemacabreingalone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There need to be dangers beyond 'law'.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There are, but the law dislikes the competition and few militaries are willing to try against those in the USA. People are murdered for ill deeds (both bombed and shot on the street), and kidnapped by gangs or "special forces".

people are murdered for ill deeds

The two people i can think of to have done that in living memory were christopher dorner and whoever luigi mangione took the fall for.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There are more, but we run into issues with sorting motivations and which victims we mean to include. Periodically a rapist or murderer will be killed by the family of the victim when the perpetrator is felt to get a disproportionate punishment. Widening the geographic scope, I understand Uday and Qusay Hussein were killed in a shootout with the USA military. As previously stated, whom to include is a difficult decision.

[–] netvor@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

true but not sure how relevant. it's not like we can choose between encryption and being wealthy beyond all necessity. (or is there some hidden about:config setting?)

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Well they still not worried nothing happening still.

Bohemian grove? Bilderberg? Davos?

[–] Dearth@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They probably still meet on an island. Epstein's client list still exists. There were more than just Epstein involved in his organization. The trust is managed by someone and people are still in the island

[–] Signtist@bookwyr.me 11 points 1 month ago

Yeah, we like to glorify individuals, but just about every big endeavor, both good and bad, comes from people working together. An organization like Epstein's Island was big enough that it definitely had more people running it than just the 2 big players we know about. Someone from upper management seized the reins and has things running smoothly again by now, I'm sure. We shouldn't be acting like things have been halted - there's still a lot of work to be done to save the victims of the wealthy.

There are a few yahoo/msn articles referencing it, iirc it comes from an industry blog for leaks or something that is well known.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Am I reading it wrong, because it sounds like Theil is advocating for lower housing and tuition costs.

That doesn't sound like a thing a person like Theil would say.

Only so much as to keep the masses complacent and consuming

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

The multimillionaires aren't invited to those meets. In 2026, if you are a multimillionaire, you are considered an underclass. That's a ten-digit+ club they're talking about.

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, they're not even close. What's the difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars? About a billion dollars.

"Oh darn, we lost our venue, guess we have no other choice but to cease these extremely profitable and gratifying 'meetings,' huh?"

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

I have no doubt there are several big rings around the world. China, Japan, India, SEA, they all have billionaires and all have their own rings, don't you think?

The 40th annual Forbes list of the world's billionaires found a record 3,428 billionaires with a total net worth of $20.1 trillion. This represents an increase of 309 members and $4 trillion compared to 2025.

This a recent favorite bit about Epstein, that jokes about normalizing knowing Epstein. It's from legendary comedy writer Jim Downey when he was on Conan O'Brien's podcast.

I put it here because it kind of tangentially makes a similar point as the main post. A somewhat normal person has no need to explain that they didn't know Epstein. It's ridiculous on its face. In fact, a normal person would have to go a long way to explain how they hell they knew him.

But it seems like we can assume that everybody rich and famous, and especially rich, went to his island and committed sex crimes.

Isn't this just the DAVOS after party?

The zucker cave

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

I shall call it a 'malapostrophe' when people use it to pluralize.

The conspiracy is that all of them know what's good for them solely is also good for the others in their rich person club. They networked, colluded, and talked in college about ways to become wealthier. Just some people facilitated places to meet up is all to further discussion as time went on.

[–] Stonewyvvern@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Also a mansion in California that hosts Baphomet parties/rituals.

And don't forget the golf courses where the majority of deals start.

[–] 58008@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The manifold abuse's of apostrophe's need's to end 😢

[–] Default_Defect@anarchist.nexus 1 points 1 month ago

It i's annoying and get's on my nerve's. 'Some people 'seem to think it's fine though.

There's still the Bohemian Club.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

You'd think at least one of them would have their headquarters built into an active volcano. If I had billions of dollars, I'd definitely have a James Bond villain lair.

[–] phx@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Bezos has the phallic rockets. Musk has the propaganda machine and electoral tampering. Thiel working in the deathbots and Skynet

Zuckerberg maybe? Or maybe Ellison, he's got property in a good location for volcano-lairs.

[–] ninjabard@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I really wish I understood where this apostrophe s for a plural bullshit started. Sundays. The apostrophe is not needed in the slightest.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 3 points 1 month ago

Voice-to-text and swipe typing both do this a lot. It's an easy mistake to make if you post without proofreading.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Its under the private school hes building so you cant bunker buster it without being a monster.

[–] crunchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

You can if it's a girls' school

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Thank God for glitterkittyn's contribution to the post, probably would've missed the main point if not for the subtle hint

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Time to continue repeating that "he died" part.

[–] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Sociopathic narcissist people bubble to the top.

[–] tryagain@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

They don't need to meet. They already have perfect class solidarity so there's nothing to discuss.
