Political Memes

Woah everybody is going wild and jumping on Stephen King like piranhas haha. He said one vague things and now everyone here is accusing him of being a pedophile. Fucking crazy!

This is giving strong "I hope nobody finds out I went to Epstein island" vibes.

Man, who would've thought that the guy who wrote a child orgy scene would turn out to be a pedophile? Edit: Didn't expect this to blow up and result in multiple bans... whoops.

I was just reading up on this subject, and for the life of me, even if King believes this to be true, I can't understand why he wouldn't just keep his trap shut.

I think there are two different lists people are talking about. One of them definitely exists, and the other one may or may not exist.

There is no doubt that law enforcement has created a list of Epstein's clients. It was even the subject of a judge's order. There are probably many such lists of people who have definitely given Epstein money, for example.

The question is whether there was some sort of list that Epstein kept himself, which probably would only be useful for blackmail purposes. If there is no blackmail intended, then Epstein probably would have intentionally avoided making such a list, which would also incriminate himself and could possibly get him killed. The existence of this list was originally asserted by right wing conspiracy theorists during Biden's presidency. It seems the only person who has confirmed this list exists is Pam Bondi, who is completely incompetent, but lies frequently in order to cover for her incompetence.

This list may or may not exist. But I think if you assert at this point that it doesn't exist, it only makes you look like a pedophile. It seems the height of stupidity to say that it doesn't exist if you don't have a horse in the race.

It's really funny how all this denial is focused on the existence of a concrete "list." What everybody means, and what anyone honest knows, is that the request is for the release of a list of the people who went to the Epstein island and were associated with the convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell and Epstein himself.

If you can convict Maxwell, there is evidence of what happened. Whether or not someone has already written a list is completely irrelevant.

There are exactly two types of people who would deny this:

1. Die hard, believe-anything-Trump-is-saying-today, MAGA faithful
2. paedophiles or people otherwise on the list

I wonder which one Stephen King is....

Also:

This also reminded me that in his short story "The Jaunt" Stephen King felt the need to include the following lines for no apparent reason:

Ricky and Pat were watching him seriously, his son twelve, his daughter nine. He told himself again that Ricky would be deep in the swamp of puberty and his daughter would likely be developing breast by the time they got back to earth, and again found it difficult to believe.

I'm confused. Epstein definitely did the crimes of trafficking children to be raped by wealthy people.

Why would a client list not be a real?

Stephen King confirmed himself as a pedophile

It's nice of the people on the list to out themselves. At this rate we can just compile it ourselves.

The guy did write about a bunch of children running a train on another child to "recharge their matches" in the book 'it' acting like it was a liberating experiance.

Guy also described a girl pissing and shitting herself in "the girl who lived tom gordon" in detail which weirded me out even as a kid

Wow, what a massive POS, and misusing "UFO" to boot. Yeah, everyone has seen something flying that they couldn't identify at some point or another. "UFO" does not automatically mean "extraterrestrial spacecraft."

I wanna tell King he's a shithead pedo, but I just don't feel comfortable among the people shitting on him.

That part of IT might make a whole lot more sense all the sudden

It costs nothing to shut the fuck up.

Sounds a lot like Stephen King is very likely to be a pedophile that has raped children on Epstein's island 🤔

Bet he's on that list the fucking nonce

Lol. Guess who's on the list. 🤣🤣

I can believe there's no neat little notepad with a bunch of names on it, but there's definitely a shit load of evidence incriminating a bunch of powerful people, given what we already know.

Stephen King is on the list.

Never meet you're heroes. Especially not if you're underage.

bro self reported

Interesting, the mystery expands...I can't wait for all the people who are associated with that list to be catching well-earned strays from the fallout.

So he's afraid of being on it. That's all there is to this.

I mean, he wrote IT so idk if this would surprise anyone lol

The only sense I can make is that he's saying the administration lied about it as a prop to get elected.

But, of course, prominent Nazi Pam Bondi said it was on her desk AFTER the election. And Republicans just voted not to release something they claim doesn't exist. And logic states that if it does exist and it exonerates Trump they'd be plastering it on every wall in every city, town, and village in America. Sooooooooo.......

Ok I love Stephen King but now I'm like wtf. of all the hills to die on

Ohoh, has someone fallen off the coke wagon?

I mean, there is almost certainly no "The List", "2003-02-23: Donald John Trump, 3 pedophilia, paid by bank transfer".
There are terabytes of call logs, text messages, videos, photos, location logs, witness testimonies, whatever samples, and fuck knows what else.

We already have the flight logs, right? These people flew to the island, that should be enough for something. It's not like we're going to find a QuickBooks pricelist with clients and sex acts in it.

I'd like to remind this thread not to jump to conclusions. It's not exactly unheard of for a notorious coke addict to be confidently wrong about something. I'll believe he's a sicko when I see his name on the list and not a second sooner.

Edit: Am I really being downvoted for not immediately joining a mob and instead waiting for proof? "We did it ~~reddit~~ lemmy!"

Tell me you're on that list without telling me you're on that list.

Huh. I thought he publicly quit twitter and moved to ~~blue sky~~ threads?

Even if there is no list (anymore), it's funny so many self-repport in the assumption there is a list.
