It’s already established in Clinton’s case because he was in the black book (along with many others). Pretty much anyone in the black book is a pedo unless proven otherwise.

That’s not true really. Wasn’t the black book just a list of contacts? Lots of people in the book had never even been in proper contact with him.

I thought in the Lore that the black book referred to people who were internally recorded in the flight log as traveling on the Lolita Express

Is the suggestion here that what they are reporting on did not occur? What would be “not buying into it”?

He said Epstein helped him organize a talk with Ehud Barak, feels pretty fed adjacent at least

That he’s a salaried agent or whatever is hyperbole, but the idea that he ultimately has served a propaganda purpose as the furthest acceptable left position in the US is something that predates the Epstein connections being revealed.

“now”? People have been discussing Chomsky being potentially a fed or an asset long before the Epstein link. not saying it’s true but it’s plausible.

I think most people are expecting a higher moral standard from someone who claims to be a leftist than they do from the Clintons.

In response to questions from the Journal, Chomsky confirmed that he received a March 2018 transfer of roughly $270,000 from an Epstein-linked account. He said it was “restricted to rearrangement of my own funds, and did not involve one penny from Epstein.”

Chomsky explained that he asked Epstein for help with a “technical matter” that he said involved the disbursement of common funds related to his first marriage.

“My late wife died 15 years ago after a long illness. We paid no attention to financial issues,” he said in an email that cc’d his current wife. “We asked Epstein for advice. The simplest way seemed to be to transfer funds from one account in my name to another, by way of his office.”

Chomsky said he didn’t hire Epstein. “It was a simple, quick, transfer of funds,” he said.

When initially asked about his relationship with Epstein, Chomsky had told the Journal, “First response is that it is none of your business. Or anyone’s. Second is that I knew him and we met occasionally.”

At best this is the story about an elite “anarchist” who is asking his oligarch friend for help gaming the financial system.

Like all Libertarians - whether Socialist or Capitalist - Chomsky’s biggest criticism of the Soviet Union is that he would’ve been executed for being a child diddler.
