Even worse… it’s a belief that if you’re gonna get caught, the only way to escape punishment is to make it so egregiously bad, it crashes the economy.
And even if it doesn’t, you can just ask Daddy Trump to pardon you… Or not even prosecute you in the first place

The Great Recession changed everything
It showed that corrupt rich people could crash the world economy, get bailed out, not face any consequences & even keep getting bonuses
Now all they have to do is wave their arms and chant “Too Big to Fail!”

The problem of course is we have a political and economic system that has eliminated the downsides of insane behavior and risk taking. You can burn down the world and then shrug and walk away with billions. Seems like a problem

Also, "the names of the people we denied food and sleep and forced to urinate on themselves unless they signed 'voluntary' deportation papers are not easily accessible to us, but we'll see if we can figure something out" is a sentence that should get you ostracized from society.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed
