MODERATORS
Regardless of their nationality, billionaires largely pursue the same interests in order to strengthen their position of power in the political system in which they are most involved.
This is, of course, a conspiracy theory, but the Epstein files, for example, certainly suggest this - as does the fact that billionaires' companies are all multinational and that it is almost impossible to trace where the incredible amounts of capital in the international economic system actually come from (such as the massive concentrations of capital managed by asset managers like Black Rock).
In short: I suspect that the biggest problem facing people worldwide lies in the power of the respective so-called elites, and I think that they coordinate among themselves in order to remain in power or to expand it further.
This is how I explain the resurgence of Nazi ideology, which is actively promoted by billionaires in very different countries.
The question comes to mind - why work so hard to consolidate their power so thoroughly? They already have basically everything anyone could want. Why not kick back and relax?
One plausible answer supported by some of the data: They love raping children, and need their power network to continue to feel safe while continuing to kidnap and rape children.
I suspect that child abuse in these circles is something like murder or other serious crimes for less influential forms of organized crime like the classical mob (Cosa Nostra and so on): these heinous crimes serve as proof of loyalty and at the same time as a bargaining chip that the mob boss can use against his "soldiers." That would explain why there are disproportionately more pedophiles in the GOP, for example. That may not be the only reason, but pedophilia is clearly the common denominator among those who support the authoritarian-fascist regime in the US.
In any case, Epstein was also obviously used by Mossad to collect blackmail material against influential people.
It seems to me, especially given the proximity of the US regime to the equally fascist Israel, that this is a fundamental strategy to prevent co-conspirators from going public with their knowledge.
I'm not so sure it's actually pedophilia, as in I don't think they're sexually attracted to children.
I think what actually turns them on is having the power to destroy a vulnerable person with impunity, and pretty much no one is as vulnerable as a child.
Which makes sense because you have to be a psychopath to become a billionaire.
