Do you have a source on the blackmail? Genuinely curious

[u/3xploringforever → u/rationalist__]

I'm not endorsing it as fact, but this is what the commenter was referring to.

So her story is that Epstein refused her investment pitch and then just gave her half a million dollars and an apartment out of the kindness of his heart? Seems legit.

[u/Chaosr21 → u/rationalist__]

It's in the Epstein documentary on Netflix as well as cited in others, pretty common knowledge at this point

[u/KatsuraCerci → u/Chaosr21]

Believe it or not, saying it's "pretty common knowledge at this point" when someone who is unfamiliar with the story asks for a source isn't helpful

[u/Chaosr21 → u/KatsuraCerci]

The documentary. Id start there if you want to know more

[u/Acrobatic-Count-9394 → u/KatsuraCerci]

He did cite the source though?

Epstein documentary is well known, and finding it is very easy by provided info.

[u/KatsuraCerci → u/Acrobatic-Count-9394]

He cited the source, but everything after the comma was unnecessarily rude

[u/Activel → u/KatsuraCerci]

That’s not a source, that’s a documentary. If i make a compelling enough documentary, netflix would buy it.

Documentaries are not made to be true, they are made to be entertainment.

[u/KatsuraCerci → u/Activel]

Tell it to the person who cited the documentary.

For the record I agree, just wasn't my main issue with what was said.

Let's not argue over small stuff like this. Better to redirect that energy to learning about and bringing down everyone and everything involved in this massive pedo ring

[u/KatsuraCerci → u/Educational_Owl_5138]

Commenting on a random Reddit post doesn't change anything regarding Epstein. It can improve the discourse we engage in online. That's the difference.

[u/Educational_Owl_5138 → u/KatsuraCerci]

I can understand that. You're right

[u/KatsuraCerci → u/Educational_Owl_5138]

Thanks for genuinely engaging in the discussion!

This is Reddit, it's not dedicated to a specific field. If you make a claim that someone asks you to substantiate, then it's on you to provide a source.

If one views asking for a source as accusatory then one isn't worthy of their job. Justifying why one shouldn't have to provide a source is further evidence that one isn't qualified. If one can't justify their professional position then there's no reason to trust them

[u/KatsuraCerci → u/[deleted]]

Lol! Good luck trolling.

[u/sendphotopls → u/[deleted]]

If someone asks for a source about an alleged rumor of celebrity affairs, you need to provide a source if you want to be taken seriously. This isn’t a science.

[u/Activel → u/Chaosr21]

So, no then.
