“AOC will be sleeping with the fishes if not careful.”

Then she needs to make a point to speak up more often.

She’s right. Something about this case just doesn’t smell right.

They are different, true.

The great thing about extreme evil is that we get to feel some moral superiority for NOT engaging in such unthinkable depravity.

But, as a wise person once told me, “Just because you don’t rob banks, does not mean you are a good person.”

What your initial statement has in common with Epstein is the idea of using people. I thought perhaps you would deny that you meant it in a sexual way... perhaps “fun” could be dinner and a movie. But you made clear what you meant. At least your honest about it.

Perhaps you do not think of your actions as using someone. And that might depend on whether you ever lie to get what you want, encourage self-destructive behavior like abusing alcohol, or become psychologically manipulative, etc. Otherwise, you might be describing allowing yourself to be taken advantage of just as much being the one taking advantage.

That all being said, the statement still sounds like something Epstein or others who use people might say.

I believe aspiring to be a “good person” (as opposed to someone who merely does not engage in extreme evil) means caring for people and using things. Loving things and using people is not a noble aim in life. I’m not condescending toward you or putting myself up on a pedestal as some role model. I’m simply making an observation.

Your decision to take it personally and to respond with a personal insult is not my fault. It was your choice. And it might reveal that your own conscience condemns you. If otherwise, I do not believe you would have felt the need to insult me and would have just stated the facts of the matter.
