I got cancelled too

As we have learned from Michael Tracey's excellent journalism on the Epstein "scandal," it all boils down to a guy who was so straight-laced that he didn't even willingly admit girls under 18 to his house. They had to lie about their ages to get in, which a few down to 14 years old managed but mostly he simply did not have anything sexually to do with minors, nor did he "traffick" (in any reasonable or contemporaneous sense) them or adults for that matter. New readers who still don't know that's all there is to it can check out all the links to Tracey's videos which we discussed under my previous blog post.

But it doesn't matter what the facts are, does it? Judging by all the hysterical men (yes, they are nearly all men) who after debating Michael Tracey and conceding these are the facts persist in their belief that the current witch-hunt is justified, I have given up thinking facts are relevant, which makes sense when you consider that this is a classical witch-hunt.

Witch-hunts are not exaggerations. It's not like we look back on historical accused witches and concede that they were a little bit witchy by today's standards too. No, in hindsight witch-hunts are complete and utter nonsense and the Epstein hysteria is no exception. There is literally nothing to it. Epstein did nothing that should have any relevance outside the egregiously draconian Florida jurisdiction in the early 2000s, and his friends did nothing at all.

You can also tell this is a witch-hunt by how it taints all his friends as equally bad witches and compare it to how association with anyone else with come kind of criminal conviction fails to have this effect. I have never seen anything like it for the worst criminals and now we are talking about an offense at the very flimsiest basis, relating to a girl one day under 18. It is absurd.

And now even I managed to get cancelled for my opinions in support of Epstein. It's no big deal for me as I never really had any positions worth a damn, but now I am preemptively cancelled from getting an unpaid internship because potential employers googled me and read my latest blog posts. So the path out of poverty which I mentioned about a year ago is now unavailable. I have learned a lot as I completed the classroom education part of the Kodehode program with no issue. Apparently I am too boring in person to google, so no one there noticed I have politically incorrect opinions, but when potential employers do background checks they find my blog and get hysterical, which made Kodehode hysterical too and so they kicked me out.

On the plus side I did learn a lot which will be beneficial even if I can't get a job. And now I have more time for creative expression such as blogging and coding my own projects. But I need to get back to the drawing board on how to get out of poverty and welcome suggestions to that effect.
