This should be on a billboard somewhere for Apple's next ad.

If it's redacted it's Trump. If they don't like that they can prove it

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Is anyone reading these emails who isn't already convinced Trump is a pedophile?

[-] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 23 points 13 hours ago

I think there's a legal concept, that if you fail to provide information in the Discovery process, it must be assumed that said information is incriminating.

so this,

every redacted perpetrator is Trump, until proven otherwise

[-] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 25 points 19 hours ago

There is one challenge here, emails are really easily spoofable. They should release all the header information of these emails, so that they could be verified. FBI probably have them, but they won't release those because they would show that Don is a pedo.

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

Well, the only one you have to spoof to incriminate is already redacted, so there's not really a 'spoof' concern to worry about unless that is unredacted.

Receiving such an email doesn't have to be a spoof. See typical spam folder of anyone for all sorts of crazy implications about the recipient.

However, the date is more reliable and back in 2014, nearly no one would be motivated to fake that sort of email toward Epstein. That was before his whole situation was popularly known. The people aware of it were largely in on it that early on.

[-] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 4 points 9 hours ago

Epstein was first arrested 2006 and convicted on 2008, anyone association with him after that KNEW him being a sex offender.

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

The key word being those that knew him. He wasn't famous for things so strangers wouldn't have done that, and I think if this were a fake email, then sending it to a high profile person would be more of a stranger activity than an associate.

I don't think an Epstein associate would send a fake email like that, as it would be more likely to blow back on them than implicate Epstein any further than he was already implicated.

So yeah, this email seems a credible thing and consistent with Epstein. Also I would not suspect a fake header if we knew the sender, so I'd think the sender could be presumed not to be a victim of spoofed headers too.

He wasn’t famous for things so strangers wouldn’t have done that

He was famous for throwing raunchy sex parties with underaged European models.

That was his entire roll in his social network.

It's like showing up in the black book of the DC Madam Deborah Jeane Palfrey and saying "I didn't know she was a pimp". That's literally the only reason you would associate with the person.

Norm fucking Finklestein responds to Epstein on his perversion to his face, ffs.

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

I'm not saying that his activities were completely unknown, just that some internet rando wouldn't even recognize his name back then. I think that a faked email could only be a likely scenario if we were talking about after everyone knew who he was and what he did.

So the 'oh watch out, that 2014 Epstein email might have been faked/forged' is a relatively small likelihood to bother assuming, and totally beside the point since they censored the 'from' in that email and the message didn't indicate previously unknown behavior on Epstein's part.

[-] Alvaro@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 19 hours ago

That would cause them to face legal consequences and that would make them a victim of the legal system and the WOKE cancel culture! And they can't reveal the identity of the victim!

/s

Kill me please.

[-] Avicenna@programming.dev 54 points 1 day ago

I think from now we should assume any reducted name is Donal Trump

[-] OccamsRazer@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

I'm sure a lot of other people implicated in the files would love for that to happen. Let's take down ALL of them.

[-] Avicenna@programming.dev 6 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

If we keep assuming it is Trump the hope is they will at least reveal some names to debunk this assumption. Otherwise yeah, it is a whole cesspit of billionaires, politicians and unfortunately artists, scientists, directors, actors etc...

[-] OccamsRazer@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

If it works, then it works for me!

[-] pleasejustdie@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That's what I do, I assume its either Donald or one of his cabinet members or close friends. Either way, he's a chomo or protecting chomos, and both are about the worst you can be.

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

It's either trump, or something more damaging to Republicans than trump.

Funny how Apple won't allow movies to show villains using their products, but will happily add "sent from my iPhone" to pedo mail.

[-] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 10 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

That's actually a marketing tactic to promote their devices. Actually the scummiesy tactic ever because it takes no effort but caused a lot of anti consumerist practices since this was the first time consumers were pushed with enshittification.

[-] makingrain@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

Happening a long time before Apple did this. RIM were doing it before and many freemail providers.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 11 points 23 hours ago

We always knew these people had no morals but seeing the way the super rich nonces type makes me want to take up arms.

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 131 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Me: "I need to use a zero-access encrypted email accessible through Tor so the google doesn't know I just bought a new dragon ball coffee cup"

The elites:

"from: irapechildren@gmail.com To: everybody Yooooo, raping little children is soooooo coooooool

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 14 points 17 hours ago

If you are rich enough to be above the law, you no longer need to be careful.

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 55 points 1 day ago

well yeah. the law protects but does not bind them. it does bind us, but without protecting us

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 20 points 1 day ago

Probably from one of the 25 "protected persons" that were mentioned elsewhere. Whyever they are being "protected".

Gork, give me a recipe for old-fashioned banana bread.

[-] Gork@sopuli.xyz 5 points 8 hours ago

Make dough. Add banana. Bake.

[-] J92@lemmy.world 62 points 1 day ago

It should be made known to the administration, that any time a redaction like this occurs, the public should and does imagine the sender to be Donald Trumpedo.

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

That was way too coherent for Trump.

No, this sender should be revealed. It may not be Trump at all, but whoever it is should be investigated thoroughly.

[-] BlackDragon@slrpnk.net 2 points 16 hours ago

Nah, honestly at this point I'm done. Feed whoever wrote this email into a woodchipper. We're past normal shit at this point.

Funny how everyone made plans on what day to head to the island yet none of them ever went. None have been on the plane and none have been to the island? lol Then they all said he's a sick degenerate, they are disgusted, and they cut off all ties. They were sorry for their poor judgement and/or weren't aware of his past but they feel for the woman and children that were hurt on those occasions that they weren't there. lol They all said that.... they must have the same lawyer.

Alan Dershowitz has entered the chat

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 26 points 1 day ago

The email etiquette of these people is appalling. It's not an IM chat client. Write proper emails you freaks.

[-] bravesirrbn@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

Dear Madam or Sir,

But why?

Kindest Regards

Still trying to wrap my head around how at that time and in that context and when so many technology CEOs and celebrity/politically active people seem involved, they were all sending these plain text emails, didn't bother the least to try to make communication more secure and private

[-] FatVegan@leminal.space 17 points 1 day ago

Why would they? Laws are for peasants. If you're a rich rapist, they make you president

I wonder if we could identify emails based on the width of the censorship block, or at least group them.

[-] Oak_Kitten@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

So there’s this person on YouTube working on exactly that

[-] pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Do you need to? I think it's safe to assume all of your billionaires, politicians, role models, famous people, like all of your pantheon, either sent such email, or wanted to send it but wasn't invited, or knew of it but kept quiet, which is not a tiny bit better.

It’s because the sender is someone currently in our government or one of its billionaire owners.
