David Brooks, NYT Columnist who scolded Dems for releasing Epstein materials, is in new photos from Epstein estate

103. Doesn't really do so for me

But I also think the collective reaction here is evidence we are obsessed with the "Epstein files" in that collectively look at everyone condemning him while not also saying obviously Jimmy Buffett or Bill Clinton, or Noam Chomsky were pedo creeps because their pictures were there too.

It's people confirming their own bias based on nothing more than conjecture. Pictures of Bill Richardson who was alleged to have victimized Virginia Giuffre and have visited Epstein's Island haven't been shown. Without evidence of wrong doing or at least context, these pictures offer nothing. Shocking a rich guy who presented as being a normal part of society had parties where other rich and powerful people were. I've had my picture taken with a man I later found out is a rapist. Doesn't make me one.

I think if without more evidence, this is not dissimilar to the Qanon pizza place thing. I don't need Brooks or Trump to be a pedophile to dislike them. I don't need them to be the most awful of people to think my morals and values are better than theirs.
