Did Peter Thiel get the thread about him killed?

Interesting if he did; still Thiel's reputation is pretty much solidified.

The internet- and people's new tendency toward immediate cynicism - would definitely have prevented the reputational rehab that Bill Gates temporarily experienced.

Bill Gates' reputation is still outstanding. It's only right-wing Qloony retards who constantly disparage him and they're idiots so...

R2, not after the stuff about him cheating on his wife and the Epstein stuff broke

No Drew Schiff did, whore to the Forbes 500

R4, really?

R3, are you a child? Nobody ever gave a fuck about Gates' cheating. He used to have the call girls come to his office for god's sake.

And nobody gives a shit about Epstein either, it certainly hasn't harmed Bill Gates' reputation. His legacy as a mega-philanthropist has much stronger legs than silly gossip stories.

It's not gossip, he had definitive links to Epstein. Epstein knew about his cheating and was possibly blackmailing him.

It certainly wasn't public knowledge that he had call girls coming to his office, either.

Oh yes it was, R7, everyone who cared to know about it knew Gates frequently fucked around.

And NO ONE gives a shit about Epstein. No one cares if Gates and Andrew and Clinton and Dershowitz and every other rich and famous horndog fucked young hookers at Epstein's. That's what hookers are for and that's what rich old men do.

Haven't you been paying attention? Are you just a really dumb twat?

You seem like a dumb twat. Tons of people care about Epstein, that's why that story got so much press.

Didn't Dershowitz sue over the Epstein allegations? Pretty sure that proves he cared.

Bill Gates and Elon Musk worship never made sense to me. They are literally the same type of guy. Rich assholes who aren't content with the money and want to be famous and influential as well. If you aren't on their payroll, I don't know why you want to "protect" them. Bill Gates is a skeeze, and he uses the foundation to launder his reputation. I would be a little bit suspicious about anything this guy does because a man doesn't become a billionaire by being a sweet cinnamon angel. I don't think he's the antichrist or any of the conspiracies are true, but I wouldn't be surprised if something shady was going on bts.

Is Dershowitz in prison? How about Clinton? How about Andrew? How about Gates? How about any of the other many many rich and famous people who fucked Epstein's girls? Anything? Nope. Did the case get publicity? Yep. Did anyone go to jail? Just the under-pimp Maxwell. The other under-pimp/whore, Giuffre, scored $10mil off of the British royal family and a walk. She was an active hooker long before she ever met Epstein and Maxwell and began recruiting other hookers for them.

These are WHORES and if serial killers have taught us anything it's that nobody gives a fuck about whores until there's a stack of bodies they can't ignore anymore. If you care about them, good for you. Nobody else gives a fuck.

What charges are still pending against anyone who fucked those hookers of Epstein's? None that I know of. No one important went to jail and there are no long-term repercussions other than for Andrew, who brought a laundry list of "issues" besides fucking some teenage hooker. His scandals have a much wider scope. Still, he's got his mansion and plenty of money, he's not hurting although he certainly whines about it often enough.

You may wish with all your might that something terrible would happen to these guys for fucking these hookers but it won't, it almost never does. Deal with reality.

Does Thiel hang out at the datalounge for all the dick pics?

Whatever, R11. Gates has never been a choirboy but his international reputation (the only one that really matters) is golden.

I'm not "defending" Gates or anyone, I'm simply injecting reality-based thinking into the thread. Please put me on ignore if this aggravates your paranoia.

You act as though some parties with Epstein's hookers is problematic in some hugely affecting way for these guys. It's not. It's really, really not.

If it's not problematic to be tied to Epstein then why did so many guys lie about their ties to Epstein?

R6, of course it has hurt his rep. Whenever I see a pic of Gates, I naturally think of Jeffrey Epstein. And I always wonder about Gates' "charity" work. Epstein was also big into "charity".

I don't think it is a coincidence his wife Melinda decided to call it quits not long after the Epstein connection became public knowledge. Up to that point, she had no problem putting up with his cheating.

Someone here sounds like they have also been to the Island.

Hey, Peter, I hear the Titanic wreckage is lovely this time of year

You people are fucking crazy. Of course Gates' wife knew he was cheating, wives always know. She didn't do anything about until she did. Same as most of them.

Epstein is dead, over and done with. The only people it really hurt are Epstein himself, Maxwell and it may or may not harm Giuffre, that remains to be seen. Giuffre has to pay all the girls she recruited and she may yet end up sharing a cell with Maxwell, as she should. It hurt Prince Andrew, that's about it.

Trump's running for POTUS again. Clinton is fine. Dershowitz's association with Epstein was embarrassing but he's still a great teacher and appellate lawyer whose affiliations with OJ and Trump hurt him far more than Epstein. Les Wexner has problems but they're not really related to Epstein. Gates finally got out of his marriage and is going on about his business. Would he have stayed married if he hadn't been publicly linked to Epstein, maybe/maybe not. *shrug* He's still Bill Gates and his reputation as a philanthropist is unaffected. Tom Barrack, Mort Zuckerman, Woody Allen, Larry Summers, Bill Barr, Ken Starr, Stephen Hawking, etc etc. They're all doing just fine, with the exception of Hawking who died in 2018. A small embarrassment, to be sure, but boys will be boys and it's blown over now.

Harvey Weinstein is not fine but he had so many issues. His downfall cannot be blamed on Epstein.

Your problem is that you're paranoid and you have a twisted perception of the Epstein case. I know, YOU think Epstein was HUGELY important but he wasn't. A glorified pimp and financial advisor. The biggest fish he actually fried was Prince Andrew, a well-known prat and second son royal with many dubious financial dealings. Meh. Dumb teen hookers fucked a bunch of rich men and made a bunch of money out of it. The rich men were slightly embarrassed when this became public knowledge. Meh.

No one cares about dumb teen hookers nor do they care about men fucking them. Watch and learn. All the guys will be just fine, it's a feminist's pipe dream that it had any serious impact in the world. You'd be better off working with young girls and strengthening their self-esteem before they start selling their asses for a few hundred bucks and a shopping trip.

Someone, somewhere is pimping out young girls right now, this very minute and nothing is going to happen to them either.

R19 is giving himself away by calling underage girls "teen hookers"

"No one cares about dumb teen hookers"

Which is why there have been about 3000 articles and documentaries about Epstein. Because no one cares. Nice of you to insult the victims, too, while defending the guys who claim are into underage "teen hookers"

The whining about feminism is pretty funny, too, since so many people on the right who hate feminists obsess over Epstein

R19- Pedophile

Why do you hate him so much, OP? Nothing to do with you? Random occurrence. Shouldn't you hate groups of people who aren't gay making gay men look bad more than that?

R23, why do you like him so much? Do you love people who fund far right candidates like J.D. Vance?

I was just wondering why a thread that was started back in April was suddenly killed

I don't really care if he exists or not.

Spoiled brat model instagrammed himself off a balcony. Tough shit?

Of course. Call a bunch of dumb teen hookers "dumb teen hookers" and there must be a pedo typing that! Or it's part of vast pedophile conspiracy out to get you "crusaders" for teen girls! Of course you're not actually doing anything to help teen girls, you're just whining about Epstein and Gates and a bunch of rich old white guys on the internet and doing fuck-all for young girls. Complaining about straight men you'll never be able to influence or change in any way is a much better option on a gay men's website. DUH.

Teen hookers are teen fucking hookers, kids. Nothing's going to change what they are, that's reality.

I see you are running with the bullshit "He fell taking a selfie!" argument that Daily Fail ran with, r25.

If you don't care that he exists, why did you post in this thread?

R26 would rather defend straight pervs on a gay website

Go ahead and defend them if you want, hon, if you got busted with an underage male hooker I doubt any of those guys would defend you

I was trying to come up with a witty reply, R28, but I was defeated by the depressing thought of your cobweb filled, dusty old vaj and who might ever willingly fuck it? Couldn't think of anyone for love nor money. Anything that wasn't "mechanical" in nature wouldn't have the temerity to venture up that long-abandoned trail. The decrepit walls might collapse at any moment.

Anyway, getting back to the topic....

Do we know who complained about the thread? Thiel, or one of his hos or associates?

We don't know, newbie R30, and we've never known. In all the years I've been here (25) Muriel has never given out that kind of information. The threads come and the the threads go. Move along, nothing to see here.
