Life is an endless series of contextual ethics problems. Then you die.
Rah has explained why even getting the reference, it'd still probably be flagged.
In this specific case, I'm pretty confident the thing that made it a violation was the change in the quote from "a man" (indefinite article) to "the writer of this article" (a specific identifiable individual), plus the change from past tense ("I shot") to present tense, volitive mood ("I want to")

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

A productive afternoon so far, while I have not gotten to the pace of hitting my word goal every day yet so far I did just end a chapter on a happy note and crossed 10,000 words.
My major obstacles have been finding the time, not writing enough once I do.
Progress! #NaNoWriMo

Essentially nobody on the D side thinks the actions of the 8 "bipartisaners" were anything but wrong, indeed stupid. But now - as the Trump Regime and its captive party are badly stumbling - is not the time to encourage a fracture in the opposition, and a descent into openly warring cohorts. 1/

And the top of the curve. Novablast Wurm is more cute than good, but I want to pull it off somewhere and this is the deck it fits in.
I notice another conspicuous absence, in that I thought this deck had a copy of Aftermath Analyst already. Well, that's another card I will have to find room for.

Fives and sixes. Another common theme is 0/0 creatures since those are very large with Nethroi's Mutate trigger, but I had previously gone too far in that direction (see: Phantom Nishoba) and most of them aren't there for recursion this way.
They are for feeding to the Gitrog Monster.

Three- and four-drops. Icetill Explorer is the most recent addition but I am actually more excited for the Baloth Prime from the same set, since I sacrifice lands often and can get a lot of tokens that way.
Some choices made off of "if I draw Survival of the Fittest...", thus: Big Game Hunter.
