Notice the timeline here. This is way before Epstein. The pedophilia extortion rot is so deep in global governance at this point because it's been here a very long time. The scale has now become so large as to threaten western civilization itself. If there were another Dark Age about to begin, this is 100% how it would look. Can it be reversed at this point? It would require a population-wide return to moral norms that have been out of fashion for 100 years. Possible, but I'm not holding my breath.

Well... I mean yeah. Did anyone really think this hasn't been a problem since time immemorial?

Before the 90's we practically didn't even find this a problem. It was common to talk about loving 14-18 year olds in music and media.

The thing about Epstein that was so surprising is that it was being done by someone who was so high profile AFTER it started really getting called out around 2005 which was well after the clergy cases and a that really had changed the public perception.
