Why would anyone who is NOT an expert in the field be going through the E-Stain files?

Why would anyone who is NOT an expert in the field be going through the E-Stain files?
Can they arrest any perpetrators? No.
Can they counsel Survivors? No.
Can they protect anyone? No.
It is a task for police, survivor advocates and other experts in the field.

What can you do?

1. THE BEST THING ANY ORDINARY INTERESTED PERSON CAN DO NOW IS TO GET FAMILIAR WITH THE MANY, MANY SURVIVORS WHO HAVE MADE DEPOSITIONS, UNDER OATH, UNDER PERJURY LAWS, GET TO KNOW THEIR STORIES, GET TO KNOW WHO THEY ARE AND SUPPORT THEM AND THEIR ADVOCATES THEIR EFFORTS TO ENSURE FULL ACCOUNTABILITY AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF FULL JUSTICE UNDER THE LAW.

Epstein Survivors Statement February 3rd 2026

“This latest release of Jeffrey Epstein files is being sold as transparency, but what it actually does is expose survivors. Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous. As survivors, we should never be the ones named, scrutinized, and retraumatized while Epstein’s enablers continue to benefit from secrecy. This is a betrayal of the very people this process is supposed to serve.


Virginia Roberts Giuffre alone reported many abusers connected to Epstein’s network, yet the public still does not have the full truth about who enabled him, who participated in his exploitation, and who has been shielded for years. Hundreds of women have come forward with additional reports like hers. The scale of this failure is staggering and indefensible.


}The Justice Department cannot claim it is finished releasing files until every legally required document is released and every abuser and enabler is fully exposed. We need to hear directly from Attorney General Pam Bondi when she appears before the House Judiciary Committee on February 11. 


Survivors deserve answers, and the public deserves the truth.

This is not over. We will not stop until the truth is fully revealed and every perpetrator is finally held accountable. As we have always said, this is not about politics. 


We hope Democrats and Republicans will stand with survivors in continuing to demand the full release of the Epstein files.


We look forward to hearing from Attorney General Pam Bondi on February 11.”

Well, Ms Bondi did take the stand as a witness to the Congressional Hearing and basically told the world to sod off, to paraphrase she told the hearing that "President Trump is the most transparent President in US history and the Best President in US History and the Stock Market is Booming, so shut up,  you losers!"


2. TRY TO AVOID WEAPONISING THIS STUFF TO MAKE YOUR POLITICAL POINTS OR FOR DRAWING ROOM ARGUMENTS.
3. GET SERIOUS, EVIDENCE BASED, DITCH ANY BIAS OR RAGE, BE CALM AND SUPPORT SURVIVORS, INCLUDING THOSE AROUND YOU - YES, THERE ARE SURVIVORS ALL AROUND YOU.
AND DE-CONSTRUCT FROM PATRIARCHY.... THAT IS ESSENTIAL. (NOT EASY, YET TOTALLY NECESSARY)

The Risks
There is a massive risk that ordinary people examining that kind of material will be traumatised and/or so enraged as to do something silly that does not help Survivors. There is also a risk that part of the way the release is being managed and promoted is to drive behaviour that can be exploited, politically, by the Ruling Class. Certainly there is a cognitive warfare element to all of this.

There is also a certainty that many other predators will be going through the files to get a porn hit..... they like reading such materials.


When it comes to political action to hold the Ruling Class and Wealth accountable
this is just one part of the whole and should not become the leading edge of the advocacy for accountability.

It's not like the Ruling Class of USA or UK is not already 100% guilty of Genocide, War Crimes, Environment Degradation, Climate Disruption, Inducing Poverty and fulsome engagement in Corruption of democratic governance.
Get a grip.
And note - there is no 'sexual attraction to minors' - what there is people who want to exercise abuse over children because children are physically weak, emotionally weaker, and psychologically pliable and they have to submit or die. Children have no escape route and the predators know this and this is why they choose children. They know they can get away with it.
Sexual Assault of Children is not an 'attraction'

It is not an orientation, the predators have zero interest in the person the child is.

Predators cannot be healed, they cannot be reformed and the only safety is to identify them and segregate them from the community.
The get an arousal from exercising power to cause harm with impunity and that is what makes them 'horny'. 

The same applies to the political power that Wealth-as-Power is - Elton Musk made it 100% clear when he said 'The greatest weakness of western civilisation is Empathy.'

Accountability

During the Super Bowl performance of BadBunny had a billboard that said 'What hate fears the most is Love' - that is incorrect. 

What hate fears the most is accountability.

Every person who seeks power over others, irrespective of where it is done, is devoid of empathy and is interested only in the exercise of Power and leveraging impunity, making sure they get away with it.

Accountability strips them of their power, makes them ordinary, separates them from those they would target and this they fear more than anything else.

It takes almost no effort to submit to a violent hierarchy

It takes almost no effort to submit to a violent hierarchy, to get by. That said the distress of living under a violent hierarchy generates chronic stressors that make life still very difficult indeed, with reasonable cause of anxiety, sadness, despair all of which require great effort to manage.



The International Criminal Court


Gaza Destroyed - Witness a Genocide in Real Time

Zionism as a weapon of the British Empire

A people's solution to democratic power

Pax in Bello

Wealth-as-Power Cult


Disrupting Democracy

Upholding Democracy

Grenfell - Known Avoidable Harm not Avoided.

Culture Shift required.



It takes immense effort to stand up to a violent hierarchy, in order to thrive well.


That effort is made less of a burden when the majority of the population take it on as their task. This is a numbers game, We do have the numbers.


We need to de-numb ourselves, and that will require we care more for each other, even for strangers in our midst.

The Fossil Fuel Industry and their allies  understand that, given that they knew about Climate Disruption some 70 years ago, and kept quiet about it in order to continue to extract wealth and build their political power, that they are culpable for that action, for not avoiding known avoidable harms.


Being culpable they are also liable, criminally and in civil courts, for indictments and reparations.


The only force that could hold them accountable is a democratically elected legislature that would uphold the law, institute regulation, and hold them accountable.


They therefore have embarked on a campaign to disrupt democratic governance across all democracies, to prevent any government from holding them accountable.


They also understand that if the vast majority of ordinary people understood this in these clear, evident based terms, that they would indeed elect legislators to hold the fossil fuels industry accountable(and others) accountable for the avoidable harms they have caused and are causing, as crucial step in preventing further abuse of Power.


Hence the emotive nature of certain narratives and the curation of scapegoating bigotry to sow fear, hatred, reactionary dynamics and thus to divide the populations.

Let me put it another way…

A problem that is correctly understood is half way towards being solved.


The Problem - Fossil Fuel Industry knew it would cause Climate Disruption 70 years ago, and ignored the science in order to extract more wealth and build more political power.


Once ordinary people understood this they started to demand accountability.


The only force that can hold the fossil fuel industry accountable  are democratic Governments elected by citizens to pass legislation to uphold the Law, and to regulate the Fossil Fuel Industry and hold it accountable for known avoidable harms not avoided. Criminal and Civil litigation being the mechanism to do this.


The Fossil Fuel Industry understands this problem accurately.


The Solution : Disrupt every existing democracy so that no democratic government anywhere can hold the Fossil Fuel Industry accountable.


That strategy is being pursued, and it hurts us all. 


Here's the solution to that problem: We ordinary people have the numbers and when we stand together in political and socio-economic and cultural solidarity to elect decent, honest evidence grounded legislators to our legislatures, we can support them as they use the powers of the State, the Courts etc to hold the fossil fuel Industry to account for the known avoidable harms they refused to avoid.

The rise of warfare, misogyny, racism, xenophobia, authoritarian nationalism as a (badly) planned evasion of accountability?

source : Private Eye



The rise of warfare, misogyny, racism, xenophobia, authoritarian nationalism as a (badly) planned evasion of accountability?





“Biden is the only one who could defeat Trump” is the big lie of the Democratic Party, ignoring the reality that what actually has happened was a case of “Biden is the only one who could defeat Bernie Sanders.”


"Starmer was the only one who could defeat Corbyn..."


I think these citations get to the core of the issue:


I'l explain why I think this.


1. Climate Disruption is a huge immediate threat, which will demand co-operative action across regions, countries and populations, to meet those threats and avoid avoidable harms.


2. The Fossil Fuel Wealth grouping is culpable for all those harms - they knew 70 years ago that pouring CO2 into the atmosphere was going to disrupt the climate, and their predictions then are being met now. Still, they proceeded to extract, produce and drive consumption, to build their wealth and power. They even devoted much resources to denial campaigns and political corruption to protect their stance from democratic regulation. With near total impunity.


3. That culpability is now well established. With culpability comes liability if they are held accountable.


4. They do not want to be held accountable. They do not want to cede their wealth and power. 


5. They are allied to Mining, Agriculture, Fisheries and Deforestation as commodity extraction industrial wealth. Collectively all of these groups present as Wealth-as-Power, a dominant political force more powerful than divided voters.


6. To evade being held accountable by democratic legislatures, they have to disrupt democratic legislatures, everywhere, with every possible tool to hand.


7. Holding them accountable can only be driven by a well educated, active in solidarity mass movement of the populations - aiming for global mutual aid to meet the problems right in front of us. As a matter of Survival, which if we succeed will lead to a state of Thrivival for the long term.





Jeffery Sachs lays out a vision for the future, a long term vision and I think he is speaking more wisdom than any American, British or European leader...



Video starts with a question post to Jeffery as to what he sees as the long term potential, as of this moment.


Amazing.


8. I say badly planned because it is chaotic, it is exposing the underlying realities of Wealth-as-Power in the Industrialised West, and this is driving an awakening and I believe that awakening guarantees that there will be a reckoning.

9. Europe claims to be standing up for the Ukrainian civilians, yet has gleefully armed and funded and openly supported the conscription of 1.3 million innocents, the slaughter of 500,000, the maiming of many more Ukrainians, and a similar human cost on the Russian side.  Zelensky and Putin are no different to Hair and Von Manstein in WWI. 


If Europe was genuinely a protector of civilian life, it would have prevented Afghan '02, Iraq '03 or in the event of failing to do so, held Blair, Bush and the others responsible for the avoidable harms caused accountable.


If Europe was genuinely a protector of civilian life, it would have prevented Israeli Zionism from going ahead with settlement, removal and conquest and demanded the right of return to all Palestinians and demanded that Israel develops as a democratic State for all those living within the 1967 Borders, and this is the minimum required - or in the event of failing to do so, hold Netanyahu et al responsible for the avoidable ongoing genocide and ethnic cleansing and war crimes today, now. Robustly.


The level of gaslighting is astonishing. The profits of Military Industrial Shareholders are immense. All these costs could have been avoided by intelligent negotiations on a win-win basis, rather than the zero-sum Game Theory dynamic of competing warring states. 


Europe is doing one of that. I detest the behaviour of these atrocity prone adults, one and all.

Wealth as Power, Social Engineering and Chains.


The Middle Class work for the Ruling Class, and they manage the Working Classbecause the pay grade gives them comfort, the working class who work do so because they fear becoming the poor and the destitute. 

This is a chain based system, of curated psycho-social chains. Break the chains to break free.

Wealth as Power is a hierarchy of Wealth as a dominant force in a culture.

Wealth as Power is a belief cult that believes in the inherent superiority of Wealth and The Wealthy, a cult that deploys layers of violences, large and small, against the majority in order to maintain it's dominant position, to continue to extract wealth by exploiting populations and their land base.

Wealth as Power Cults have only existed within the human species for a mere 15,000 years and they do not represent optimally healthy biological behaviour for our species.

The struggle today is to hold wealth as power accountable for all the harms it has caused and is causing, so that we can reclaim our inherent biologically healthy behavioural dynamic of egalitarian alloparenting humame species.

This is not about looking back, this is not about returning to the past - it is about working together to build a culture rooted firmly and grounded in healthy relationships, between adults and children, adults and adults, adults and elders, adults and the vulnerable.

Violence will not do this. Solidarity grounded in empathy, education, healing, beauty, kindness and determined accountability will do this work. We have the numbers, we have the heart we have the intelligence.
