I think this prediction is holding up pretty well, and maybe I should have noted the failure of the Turn Charlie Kirk Into A Martyr moment might have been the pinnacle of the phenomenon. In some deep way I think the New Right Loser Men fail to understand what state power can and can't do for them.

I HATE that the even ask that question. It really feels like what they want to say is "Don't you think it would be better to keep this quiet if it might hurt powerful men? I mean, these victims are just girls. Are they really that important? Have you really thought this through?"

It was Miami Herald local reporter Julie Brown @jkbjournalist.bsky.social who actually covered the Epstein story and blew it wide open. She cared about the victims and Epstein's crimes, not access.
National outlets not only didn't, they refused to. They thought it was tawdry and beneath them.

There is simply no excuse for this level of ignorance. Trump called african nations "shit-hole countries" in his first term. And while that would have brought down any other presidency, everyone just shrugged. "Oh it's just Trump being Trump."
