Back in the day, anyone who now uses the phrase Eurotrash would've use the phrase to describe Anne Frank, and would've wanted everyone on board M.S. St. Louis to return to Germany (to be murdered).

when something is in the form of a conspiracy theory i just automatically disbelieve it. when everyone kept saying "epstein didnt kill himself" my reaction was "well i guess he really must have killed himself then"

If you think the CIA wouldn't let someone gently caress minors or wouldn't assassinate someone dunno what to tell, read more about history I guess.

theres just no direct evidence and between the explanation that requires a complex plan and setup and which also happens to appeal to people's sense of narrative and need for closure, and the simple straightforward mainstream explanation i will always go for the latter

There's always the middle ground conspiracy too. Boy wouldn't it be better if this guy went away; why not assign guards we know are lazy, literally give him enough rope to hang himself, and hope? Not everything is STATE DEPARTMENT ALPHA MAX TANGO PRECISION OPERATIONS where everything is cunningly planned

The camera just coincidentally malfunctioned at the time Epstein died, the guards didn't check up on him like they were scheduled to do, Epstein hung himself with a rope made from a paper blanket specifically designed so that it couldn't be turned into a rope to kill yourself with, and that rope was tied to a bed frame below Epstein's neck but he was still able to hang himself by "kneeling with force" which I don't think is a thing you can actually do. A conspiracy to murder him is the simpler, more believable explanation.

It's not so much that no one will morally do it as that killing people on your own soil is rare, difficult, hard to hide, and hard to keep control of the tens or hundreds of people who might get wind that something is wrong. If you're a career bureaucrat and know you'll be thrown under the bus if anything gets proven or goes wrong in any way, it isn't going to be your first choice.

The tends or hundreds of people are people who matter, not half interested internet commenters. It doesn't matter what I believe. I dunno I genuinely don't think people are being regularly subject to political assassination in western countries. Could this be an exception? Sure but I don't think it is as simple as calling in the home team hit squad because they have a slot free on Monday.

They seemed pretty broken up about a decade of wikileaks exposes, which came with hard evidence. My original post was basically to say there are reasons to doubt it was deliberate beyond disbelief that the fine upstanding USA would ever kill a dude. My pet theory is that there was foul play that stopped short of actual murder. I'm not particularly invested in the story because I'm not American and don't think the US has much going for it.

It doesn’t have to be The State that killed him. He had ties to tons of extremely powerful people. Could be anyone who flew on the Lolita Express a few too many times.

Ok but you are just asking the question "what is the state"? Former or current presidents, billionaires, the apparatus of a prison that let someone in to strangle him and covered up all evidence, that is all "the state".

I kinda think it might actually be possible that the lettuce they have at Chipotle is just paper.

# ? Dec 5, 2021 19:25 |

I'm serious, if you went to the Chipotle website and looked at the ingredients and it turned out that the lettuce they serve is actually some kind of sustainable vegan lettuce substitute made of recycled paper, would you really be that surprised? Or would you be like, "yeah that makes sense. that explains why it's like that"

Nameless Pete posted:Tell me more about this non-vegan lettuce they were using previously. When McDonalds became a major investor in Chipotle in ‘98, they shared their patent for a meat-based lettuce which they had developed to save two cents per thousand burgers sold. When McDonalds left in ‘06, Chipotle was forced to develop their own lettuce alternative, and elected to cut costs by using the same paper sourced for their tortilla chip bags.

I think lettuce is fine on a boring crunchy gringo taco, but on a burrito how do you not end up with lukewarm mush lettuce?

That’s my personal pet peeve; putting huge amounts of lovely tasteless iceberg lettuce on food that’s served hot. Burritos, tacos, hot sandwiches, even burgers- it just makes the food cold and the limp lukewarm lettuce can be a PITA to try to pick off. I know they do it just to make the food appear larger - I’ve never heard a single soul say ‘gee, this wilted tepid lettuce really makes this XXXX taste fantastic’. Subway is the worst offender, but at least most of their sandwiches are cold.

Alfalfa sprouts are a better alternative to any leafy green salad vegetable in any kind of sandwich-like food. Spinach and rocket are obviously much better than iceberg, but alfalfa is even better.
