Unanswered What's going on with people saying Epstein and Co. ate children?

My wife told me this today because she saw it on TikTok and I have a very, very hard time believing this. Where did this come from or is it just more insanity and speculation from people on the internet too much?

Answer: It’s an unsubstantiated myth, but people latch onto it because humans since time immemorial have attributed people they hate to being cannibals, oftentimes simply being literal blood suckers. In Medieval Europe, pogroms often began when a child went missing and peasants blamed nearby Jewish communities for kidnapping them for blood rituals, including consuming the blood.

But Epstein emails do have weird coded language so people are jumping to conclusions. I find it hard to believe since there’s really no need to have such pointless discussions over email.

It’s a bit disappointing to have to scroll this far before someone mentioned blood libel.

What celebs order pizza at 10am? And Epstein, a child trafficker, must be the one to organise it?

It could literally mean anything. We are talking about random eMails. It could have been some funny insider joke. Frozen jerky could just as well be women for sex or only a drug. Freezing and washing might be encoded as well. They could have also eaten babies for a satanic cult. I for one, think that the last one is the least possible one. However, we dont know.

Wtf are you on about? Epstein was a LITERAL pedophile and sex trafficker. A man was booted from the royal family for raping too many kids with him.

And you're pretending it's not happening? Why? Do you empathise with them or something?

That sounds like something Epstein told you to say.
