Would Releasing the Epstein Files Matter?

Would Releasing the Epstein Files Matter?

Do We Honestly Expect Any Changes To Happen if They Were?

Even if the Epstein client list was finally released, nothing meaningful will happen. Not to the powerful, or the wealthy. Not to the people who actually matter in this upside-down empire we call the “free world.”

America has a track record of not giving a damn about holding monsters accountable, as long as they have power, money, or a good PR team. Sometimes not even that.

This is a country where Woody Allen literally married the girl he helped raise since she was four, and still produced a movie as recently as 2023. Mike Tyson? Convicted rapist turned cultural icon with cameos and a one-man Broadway show. Roman Polanski? Convicted of child rape and still glorified in artistic circles. The message is loud and clear: if you’re rich or famous or useful to the system, you get a pass, even applause.

We elected a man president, twice, who’s been accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, bragged about grabbing women by the genitals on tape, walked into underage beauty pageant dressing rooms, later openly bragging about it, and still somehow walks free with a legion of supporters foaming at the mouth to vote for him again.

The bar has fallen so far it’s buried beneath a child labor mine in the Congo, mined, of course, so Apple can shave an extra five cents off their costs and investors can sleep easy knowing the quarterly report will please Wall Street.

Now we’re supposed to believe that the release of some redacted, sanitized, probably-manipulated “Epstein list” is going to ignite some moral reckoning?
