there is no "distraction from the Epstein class" because there is no "Epstein class". or rather: the world is the Epstein class, and the persons in question are distinguished not by some exceptional depravity of desire but by their superlative means. they have the resources to realize, on dizzying scales, exactly the same patterns of exploitation that repeat fractally down to the enclosure of the family unit. acting as though this is a sectarian phenomenon on any level—political, financial, cultural, whatever—is itself the distraction from the violence of the family and the construction of the child. do you think this is a problem to be solved with swift prosecutions and moral vindication? do you think you can make this go away by punishing a handful of elites, leaving the fact that children are institutionally deprived of freedom intact, leaving us still in a world where children grow up made financially dependent on their families, forced to seek resources elsewhere when desperate? do you think Epstein et al. are monsters, and our duty is a grandiose quest to rid the world of monsters? but there are no monsters, only people, embedded in structures that make certain people more vulnerable and others less. this repeats everywhere, not just in the united states, not just in the west, not just for the rich, who are only special quantitatively, not qualitatively. do not be distracted by the phantom of an "Epstein class" that presents you with a convenient moral target. justice is not a boss battle.
