normal people realizing he was never killed

Or normal people realizing the connection to Mossad and/or other state actors.

(I saw the account was faked, but I still think this would be much more significant than him being alive)

Man I think this is not real.

[–] blinfabian@feddit.nl 13 points 5 hours ago

yall know this isnt real right?

[–] QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works 57 points 14 hours ago

Fortnight tweeted something along the lines of "that was someone else who changed their username"

THEN THE ARCHIVE.ORG PAGE FOR THAT ACCOUNT WAS DELETED

and also it was active for a couple years, inactive when Epstein was in jail, then active after he died.
Not hard evidence but suspicious as hell for a troll to coincidentally have an account that had that timeframe.

Honestly idk if its true or not but the government (and Epic Games ig) really aren't trustworthy when it comes to Epstein.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 52 points 15 hours ago (6 children)

This seems so weird to me, you're ready to fake your own death but not give up a fortnight account when you can just make a new one?

[–] Alaknar@sopuli.xyz 11 points 4 hours ago (3 children)

Someone renamed their account to this after the latest release of the files.

But, yeah, people will latch on to the stupidest stuff. Like, the dude ran an underground ring of paedophile brothels for decades generating kompromat for the top-of-the-top most important people on the planet, but it's his Fortnite account that will unravel the whole thing... Come on, guys...

Just normal zio stuff. \s

[–] hector@lemmy.today 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

You say that, but look at these assholes. Look at the president. They are that arrogant to not think they don't have to try to make anything believable, the fix is in for them and they don't think they need us in the reality based community. This is perhaps one of the only issues where they've faced any pushback from reality.

Obviously this particular theory is batshit, just saying pointing out how stupid and arrogant the bad guys would have to be to do this is not the gotcha we might have thought ten years back before we knew just how openly dishonest and arrogant and corrupted it all was.

[–] Alaknar@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

They are that arrogant to not think they don’t have to try to make anything believable, the fix is in for them and they don’t think they need us in the reality based community.

Then they wouldn't try doing anything as convoluted as a faked suicide, they'd do what they did in 2008 - do a fake court case, drop all the most egregious part, give him a great lawyer, send him against shit-tier prosecutors, and sentence him to three years of house arrest to make all the bad things go away.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah it's a dumbass theory. Epstein was probably killed twice just to make sure they wanted this guy dead, he was all but openly threatening to tell people the things he knows if he didn't get help. The list of people that wanted him dead includes about every other dude that graduated from an Ivy League school at this point, the president chief amongst them. They killed him, and in this case, the arrogance was in not bothering to cover their tracks.

They are missing a minute of video or something from his cell of the incident. Their guards fell asleep on the job? You can drive a truck through the holes in this story. Conspiracy thread whackos start with a real conspiracy and take it way out in left field when it's an open and shut case of the catcher garroting the batter as he went for the pitch and everyone pretending not to see anything.

[–] saimen@feddit.org 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

On the other hand, I was always wondering how he could even be killed like this. Like you said a lot of people wanted him dead, which he had to be aware of and probably tool precautions like a release of his "data" in case of his death under suspicious circumstances.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 3 points 1 hour ago

I bet Epstein did have people that were to release information on his "suicide," but that they got to that person and made them a deal he couldn't refuse. Israeli intelligence being integral to that deal.

The same is going on with Maxwell, but she learned her lesson and has something set up that doesn't depend on the good graces of Israeli intelligence. Perhaps she has an all computer thing that will release information on her not giving the signal every so often. I know this sound like a bad spy novel, but it kind of is, reality is a robert ludlum novel but the nazi aligned factions are a lot dumber. A lot dumber.

[–] Alaknar@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if this was an attempt at the "out-conspiracy the conspiracy theory" approach.

You know: when someone says "wow, you believe humans have landed on the Moon??", you go "lol, you believe in the Moon???"

Here we have: "Epstein was found dead in his cell, he was probably murdered", being "out-conspiracied" into "lol, no, he faked his death so he can play Fortnite, his account was active a couple of days ago".

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

That's been a theory since the beginning. There was a leaked photo of epstein's body on a gurney in cuffs and they said "you don't cuff a corpse."

That's basically all I saw so no idea as to the validity or significance.

[–] Kage520@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Not that I disagree but, have you seen how low effort all of this has been for them? It wasn't some sort of complicated pizza code like maga thought Democrats were doing, it was literally just emails like "when is the wildest party on your island?"

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 7 points 6 hours ago

He had the John Wick skin on that account

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Fortnite players don't have any backbone.

[–] OttoVonNoob@lemmy.ca 20 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (2 children)

The more emails released the more the guy seems to be an immature, narcissistic and idiot. Remember this guy thought him and the other pedophiles of the world were the victims. The guy thought/thinks(?) nothing he does is wrong and he's untouchable. A fortnite account is the least of the bullshit.

[–] Gathorall@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

The American flavor of freedom did spawn NAMBLA as an out and proud organization.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

Oh yeah he's going to take care of all the big things and all the middle things and 99.9999999% of the small things, but a fortnite account? I'm untouchable, need that fornite account.

[–] Xerxos@lemmy.ml 19 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

You can't think about everything. Might have been simple laziness.

Or perhaps he just had put a lot of money into this account and thought no one would notice.

Or someone in Israel who has access to the stuff the Mossad took from the Epstein Estate got bored and booted up Epstein's PlayStation 5 to game a bit.

There are a lot of possibilities but since the government is more interested in obscuring than solving anything we can only guess.

The only things really clear are that Epstein didn't kill himself and Trump is a pedo.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 6 points 14 hours ago

If you are intent on faking your own death, first thing is not accessing your old fucking accounts. Money? You would have had enough to not work for the rest of your life and pay everyone off. A fucking fortnight account doesn't matter.

Someone in Israel? So we're no longer talking about faking your own death.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 14 hours ago

Money alone can't buy all those rare collectibles!

[–] abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 80 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

There's a second, more horrifying possibility:

The account is still active not because Epstein is alive, but because his ring is still active and the account is for the children they use.

[–] Soulg@ani.social 55 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

The ring is absolutely still active. They killed a journalist a couple years ago.

[–] abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 26 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Oh shit, you got a source?

[–] cloudskater@pawb.social 6 points 7 hours ago

I second this, I wanna know

[–] Xerxos@lemmy.ml 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

That would not explain the break during his incarnation.

[–] abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

"Hey, what do we do with Jeff's Fortnite account now he's dead?"

"Set it up for the kids to keep them occupied between clients."

[–] Xerxos@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 hours ago

True, it's a possibility.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 113 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

They leaked his account and password with the files. If there was any useful info there its worthless or trashed now. Highly unlikely but still shows the lengths they'll go to flood the zone.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 19 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

The fortnite account shows it was active like 2 months after his "death" but way before the files were released. Like 10 months before the files were released. Also there was a prison guard on 4chan (he got identified and was working at the prison) who claimed of an off the books transport van that showed up the evening before his death and it was kept out of the log books. Also that bit of footage the night of his death at the prison that showed just the tiniest bit of an orange jumpsuit going towards Epsteins cell. And all the cameras that just strategically managed to not be working.

Any one thing is nothing. All of it together is something else.

[–] in_my_honest_opinion@piefed.social 1 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

How did tbey fake the body and the autopsy then? You're not getting a body double that'll pass a medical autopsy

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I seem to recall there was actually some questions around the autopsy and that the damages to Epstein's throat were not consistent with strangulation by a bedsheet but more in line of being choked out and a crushed windpipe.

Maybe someone else has more info.

Gives me Pizza Gate vibes. This is them muddying the waters to shift blame.

[–] bobzer@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 hour ago

Bribe or threaten whoever did the autopsy?

In any other reality this would be an insane conspiracy theory, but it's not a huge leap for the one we're in.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 11 points 14 hours ago

Obviously it's being used by one of the kids still locked in a dungeon on his island.

[–] Una@europe.pub 21 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

What if Satoshi Nakamoto is Jeffrey Epstein?

[–] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

It's not. If anything, and hear me out, this is an out of left field conspiracy, the entire bitcoin was an operation by a group to break some unbreakable encryption, and all of these problems the computers are solving are just bitted out from some encryption, to do something. Maybe to get control of the US spy satellites, or something like that.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 14 minutes ago* (last edited 12 minutes ago)

Sounds like it would make for an interesting sci-fi plot, but yea I doubt it...

Edit: I didn't see your username until after I commented, I swear I'm not following you lol

[–] udon@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Shit, now I'm stuck in this forum with insane but who knows maybe true theories. What's next? Earth turns out to be flat after all?

[–] RaoulDuke25@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 18 hours ago

Heard that rumor. Would be crazy but makes sense.

[–] joyjoy@lemmy.zip 9 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Epstein didn't kill himself? 

[–] QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works 1 points 14 hours ago

whaaaaaaat?! who could have seen this coming 🤯

[–] homes@piefed.world 10 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Only for about 30 minutes until literally everyone involved forgot what had happened and presently believed any reference to it henceforth must be an AI generated lie.

That may not have been true from the comment I’m replying to as written, but, by now, it is. Such as the nature of the thing.
