This shit rubs me the wrong way, dude. Everybody gets rushed into taking pictures with each other at these events and I don’t think that’s justification to smear someone’s reputation by connecting them to Elon Musk.
You’re right, and Snopes confirms what you’re saying. They only ever appear to be standing next to each other in this one photo, ever. There’s no evidence that they even greeted each other. I’m all for dragging both of them through the mud for the stuff they’ve done, but there’s no need to make up a story that they did anything together.
While you raise a valid point, I’m not in the habit of giving billionaire playboys the benefit of the doubt
It’s not about who you give a benefit. It’s about your attitude towards reality and truth. Society has been going to shit lately because too many people prefer made-up claims that fit their identity and lifestyle, instead of fact-checking, justice, honesty and nuance.
Just because you don’t like someone doesn’t mean it’s ok to accept lies about them.
The thing is, Epstein himself took pictures with pretty much every famous person ever. I would assume not everyone is a child rapist who appears on pictures with him. What is weird is when he’s on a bunch of fotos and videos with someone like donald trump and he goes: Epstein? I don’t even know who that is.
Whooosh
Lol it woodshed me too until i saw your comment.
Elon’s brother Kimball, on the other hand… https://www.businessinsider.com/jeffrey-epsteins-ex-girlfriend-dated-kimbal-musk-brother-of-tesla-founder-elon-musk-2020-1?r=US&IR=T
Had us in the first half.
You’re right, let’s check his recent tweets and try to verify the supposed connection here.
Hahahahhahah. My most LOLd comment I’ve read on Lemmy.
lol but fr you’re probably right
LoL
I just feel bad for the lady on the right. Probably received a lot of hate online for this.
Uh…wasn’t Ghislaine Maxwell the one finding and bringing Epstein’s victims to him? She’s vile
I am joking. There’s a lady on the right.
Oh, THAT lady. Carry on lol

You did a great job at reading the whole comment before sticking your foot in your mouth.
The comment you replied to is literally the opposite of that.
I have a picture with Joel McHale.
If Joel McHale turned out to run an international child sex trafficking ring would my picture with him indicate that I was part of the ring?
I HATE Elon, but this whole…
“See see see! There is a picture of them both at the NYC 9/11 Firefighters Fundraiser event in 2009!!! <Insert celebrity here that was at the event and pictured with Maxwell or Epstein> must also be a Satan worshipping child rapist/murderer.”
Thing is fucking stupid.
How about leaving satan worshipping out of this. All satanist I know are reasonable and kind people.
I thought the kid touching thing was mostly the Catholic church…All Satan did was give us better music
As much as I love shitting on the rosary rattler megacorp, they have nothing even approaching exclusivity in that department. They’re just the biggest organization in the world (that I know of) that gets away with actively spending money covering it up.
Us Satanists thank you for your positivity :)
Hail thyself, friend 🖤🤟🏻
Yes
Remember when Elon called the cave guy “the pedo dude?” I guess he knew him personally.
Projection
Like literally every conservative
To be fair, this bitch is like the photobomb queen.
That’s what elon said when confronted with it. But they all are part of the same basket.
Also a reminder that Trump was close friends with Epstein and raped a 13yr old girl in 1994.
he what?
Yeah,but she dropped charges because he said:“I can make everyone you love disappear, like I did with the last girl”
I read that in the link @PrinzMegahertz kindly provided, but she should have gone forward with it anyway. If anything remotely bad were to happen to her family Trump would actually be fucked.
Is it worth losing your family tho? Risking the life of others to fuck him over? That’s a deeply fucked up choice to have to make and I don’t think I knew what to do
It isn’t even a gamble though, he makes a lot of fuck ups but he literally can’t afford to fuck up that bad. It would cost him less financially to settle than it would the enormous backlash from actually trying some shit. On top of that if something were to coincidentally happen to the family, he’s be just as screwed. If someone raped me and threatened to harm my family if I told anyone, and they were a huge public figure harboring Trump’s level of distrust from people, then hell yeah he’s going to court. All threats would be made public and extremists would be watching any news on my family like a hawk. That girl needed a better lawyer.
Again, another girl apparently already had disappeared. I don’t know if i could behave very logical and Trump and Eppy don’t really suffer consequences
I despise both those people but a picture of them in the same place at the same time near each other, and I might add not even touching or other signs of familiarity; it’s really just a opportunity shot. Probably for her or maybe just by the event photographer. I wish it proved more of a connection, but it really doesn’t.
I am glad you think this way
We should be dragging this billionaire asshole for all the shitty things he has done and is doing. It only weakens our own position to bring in speculation and unverified shit. It just becomes a lightning rod for the unwashed masses that support him to dismiss every other valid point against him.

Dumbass has his bowtie crooked! … Pedo what now?

Ghislaine Maxwell, sidekick and co-conspirator to Jefffery Epstein, a mega rich pedophile and sex trafficker that was in the process of being tried for his crimes but was murdered in his jail cell presumably to prevent him from speaking out against the megarich visitors to his pedo playground island. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghislaine_Maxwell

I mean it is the more egregious offense here so you can hardly be blamed.
I’ve been caught in photos with people I hate, who I would never let into my house and would not piss on if they were on fire… no idea they were there until I saw it the next day. Just saying, a photo alone means nothing.
Both of them have eyes. Makes you think
the same amount even!
Goddam private Gump, you are a god-damned genius
I know the tweeter guy. We live on the same planet. Whos the lady?
Ghislaine Maxwell . She was Epstein’s right hand.
What’s this ”B” thing? I’ve seen it a few times on unique accounts.
Bot. There’s an option in account settings to tag yourself as one.
If you hover over it it’ll pop up the words “Bot Account”. Several of the Lemmy UI icons have hover text like that. Handy for when you’re scratching your head over what one of them does.
I don’t get it… Google help plz
Every billionaire has been seen with them. Makes you think.
That they knew how to be connected? Like that’s literally what they were selling. Guilt by association is not guilt. It’s just one possible connection. The reason they were able to operate for years without being caught was because they were able to hang out in the public’s eye and not even think about being caught.
Sometimes I wonder how life is like for Billionaires. Like do they have to wake up sharp at 6am to be at work sharp at 8am?
No. They wake up whenever they want - their workplaces usually revolve around them instead of the other way around, since they usually head their own companies. This is relevant in the tech space. In other industries like Law and Business, they usually do have set times when they are in the office and stuff, but again, it’s not the same as the rest of us plebians going to work - they have drivers and pilots and they won’t get written up for being late or not going somewhere they don’t want to go to, though their business may/may not suffer the effects of their decisions. As for home life, They pretty much have fleets of staff that take care of all their earthly concerns - no chores, no house maintenance, or cooking or shopping etc. They usually aren’t even connected to the people that do these things - They have personal assistants that work with home chaperones for each home that hire cooks and servants and property maintenance people etc. as needed.
Fair warning though - I found all this from YouTube and the internet and shit, so I can’t speak for its accuracy.
Fuck! Hate being a pleb😪
Billionaires & “work”?
