If only the FBI put as much effort into investigating and prosecuting his crimes and accomplices instead into the people who posted about this death.

I mean, they didn’t figure out anything interesting in either case, so…

‘Epstein appeared to be a 4Chan user himself‘

It all makes complete sense now. Keep in mind that 4chan users noticed a massive drop in racist posts after the Oct 7th attacks.

Also, Poole created /pol/ not long after meeting Epstein. The links are likely a lot deeper than we currently know.


This has got to be one of the stupidest conspiracy theories out there. I swear nobody on HN has ever browsed 4chan for more than 30 seconds. 80-90% of it is porn and the rest is extremely lonely and socially maladjusted people talking to each other about literal nonsense.

You might be correct, but to be fair, people generally didn't believe in a secret island resort full of child abusing billionaires... and we know how that turned out.
