What a breath of fresh air the last week has been.
For those who have suggested that the good fight is futile and that the corrupt will always rule the day, I hope you can see that there is hope – and good reason to keep fighting.
We can hold people accountable. Royal family members can be arrested (Ex-Prince Andrew’s arrest spurs Epstein accountability calls from UK to U.S. ). Tech titans, entertainment moguls, and politicians can be humiliated , their legacies utterly shredded (Gates cancels AI summit keynote address amid fresh scrutiny over Epstein links, Former Norway PM charged with ‘aggravated corruption’ after probe into Epstein ties, lawyers say).
The latest revelations from the Epstein files are shocking to folks who drift through life believing that the most influential people in the world should be trusted. But to someone familiar with human nature and abuse of power, this week’s headlines have been nothing short of inspiring.
We must always remember the young women who were treated as expendable playthings by these “elites”. It is also important to understand the significance of powerful people being held accountable for their actions.
No doubt, most will get away with only a public slap on the wrist. However, if you have studied human psychology enough, you will know that public humiliation is a stiff sentence to narcissists and sociopaths.
The Court of Public Opinion is delivering guilty verdicts to many high-ranking people. I am very grateful to those who have done the digging and relentlessly demanded disclosure of the Epstein files. We as a society must continue to ask the right questions as we root out evil.
We must learn from this. Epstein, Maxwell, and other culprits should have been stopped much earlier. Let’s watch for the warning signs and act promptly when we witness or catch wind of despicable acts.
There will always be evil people, but together we can minimize the abuse. Let’s ask more questions and demand more accountability.
