People are expressing dismay that none of the people who partied with Jeffrey Epstein (Emmanuel Goldstein?) are being prosecuted and that we’re being denied access to a possible list of those people.
I’m not too interested in a list of customers for the world’s oldest profession, but I find it fascinating that people can simultaneously hold the following two ideas in their heads:
- Jeffrey Epstein was a monster because he surrounded himself with paid young females, some of whom might have been younger than 18 and possibly even as young as 14 (the age of consent in Germany, Italy, Austria, Hungary, etc.)
- we need millions more immigrants from places where a standard marriage age for girls is 12

Which countries are those?
a different perspective.

I have long held that we should take only female (and possibly minor children) refugees or immigrants from places with repressive sexual mores or excessive sexual violence, but not any men at all. You can’t tell me that we should take refugees from El Salvador because there are pervasive rape gangs and then insist that we should bring in a bunch of rape-gang-aged men in. Same with places in Africa or Asia where it’s supposedly nightmarish to be a woman. Why take any men (except maybe nobel-prize-winners) from anyplace more orange than us on this map. Aren’t we as a society desperately struggling to be less orange?
