Everyone Agrees Our Elites Are Terrible, So Why Are We Stuck with Them?
On Friday, six weeks after a deadline that was reluctantly signed into law by Trump, the Department of Justice released over 3 million documents related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The drop caused a lot of discourse online over the weekend as journalists and investigators began poring through the documents.
... Numerous public figures who claimed to have had little or no ties to Epstein were revealed to have been in closer contact with him than they had led the public to believe. More details have also come out about Epstein’s contact and involvement with multiple intelligence agencies. And additional photographs of figures already known to be closely associated with Epstein provided an additional window into how—at absolute best—insanely creepy and weird their activities with the supposed financier were.
On that note, much of what’s already been found in these files has further highlighted just how disgusting, depraved, and down-right evil Epstein and his accomplices were...
But all this raises an important question: if it’s grown so uncontroversial to say that today’s elites are terrible, why are we still stuck with them?
The state is mankind's dumbest invention. Prove me wrong.
