This is nauseating: “As the emails stretch through the years, they show how that protected realm vanished into the mists of time, pulled under by the rising forces of the internet and the #MeToo movement.” A “Gone With the Wind” framing for sexual abuse and harassment.
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?

Based on thr articles published in the last couple of days, I'm getting a high degree of confidence that the people who run the Times are, themselves, pedophiles.

MeToo should have been armed
When you write the whole piece around the idea of “MeToo” as an adequate description of what caused specific men to lose specific positions, and when you do this incredibly weird cutesy business to avoid *mentioning what happened*, you do a disservice to readers.

Can’t imagine why the New York Times would be nostalgic for the Epstein days, I’m sure there’s nothing in the emails that sheds light on this

The reason why most women my age couldn't care less if Bill Clinton goes down with the ship is that we were teens & young women when the Anita Hill and Monica Lewinsky scandals happened. It's rotten to the core. All the way down. Your "lost" era is not ours.

She shouldn't have to fear for her life because she upset a legion of unhinged, violent right-wing men. It's unacceptable.

This is the same legion of unhinged, violent right-wing men she gleefully provoked into stochastic hatred against trans people and immigrants.

Whatever her reason, she is - in this one, specific instance - doing the right thing, and suffering the unpleasant consequences of being a woman who's upset right-wingers.

Whether she was doing the right thing never troubled her before, nor did the abuse right-wingers heap upon outspoken women.

In the unlikely event that you were wondering, you don't need to morally re-examine Marjorie Taylor Greene.

She may or may not be pushing for the release of the Epstein Files because of a sincerely held principle or because of cold political calculus. It doesn't actually matter.

The journalists waxing nostalgic over Epstein's NYC sex trafficking parties are the same ones also freaking out about Mamdani and they're all in the fucking emails chatting with the guy a decade after his conviction.

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.

NYT renaming a vast international child sex trafficking ring as a "clubby world that is all but gone" while the most-named rapist in the few documents we've seen is in the most powerful position in the world who is now operating an equally vast human trafficking/torture operation is fucking vile

Sports betting, cryptocurrency, meme stonks, prediction markets, predatory gacha games... All of it is just a massive scam designed to manipulate people into blowing their life savings on bullshit thinking they're about to strike it rich and lining someone else's pocket with the money.
