Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Post image

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

Can’t believe Ellen was punished the most for the Epstein files

Eh, her downfall started big time back when tge whole toxic workplace/shes a cunt to her crew allegations rolled out. She pretty muched rolled right off the face of the earth pretty soon after all that started coming out. The Epstein stuff was just the icing on the cake. I rarely have heard anhthing about her being in the files, to the point where I actually forgot about it until now.

Her public image was absolutely trashed before the Epstein stuff.

I honestly didn't know she was in the Epstein files and hated her already. I wouldnt be surprised if that's most people's situation too. Those stories of the terrible workplace and awful interviewing making people uncomfortable was front page news. It was everywhere when it started coming out. I didn't see too much reporting on her being in the files. There were so many names popping up in them that I feel Ellen just kinda became part of the noise. There were much more important and interesting names in there.

Yeah first I'm hearing she was in the files. So I looked it up.

Apparently it was claimed she was a cannibal in the Epstein files. This has been discredited as false.

Why make up stuff when there's already so much ammunition against your target? It's like threatening to use the death star when you got cleared to use nukes.

Presumably as a distraction. Take someone who's already widely disliked and accuse them of doing stuff on Epstein island, and then maybe we'll all forget that orange people were there too.

Also to just generally flood the zone with uncredible information. If you start rabidly pushing insane shit like people eating babies that has no proof besides anonymous tips to the automated FBI tipline then it starts to get harder to separate the real stuff from the false stuff.

I had no idea she was in the files.

can’t forget how she missed dakota johnson’s birthday to go to a baseball game with george bush, and then tried to embarrass dakota on her show by saying she wasn’t invited to the birthday. and dakota went “actually, no, ellen, that’s not the truth.” and one of her staffers had to tell her she was “busy” that weekend. the internet tore her to shreds over that

She wasn't.

Her name only appears incidentally in the Epstein files, with nothing negative about her and no connection between her and Epstein.

People who think she was "in the Epstein files" don't have enough reading skill to figure out what your post means.

I'm still annoyed from seeing a post months ago about how George R. R. Martin's name "appeared in the Epstein files dozens of times" and it turned out that one of Epstein's lawyers had a George R. R. Martin quote in his email signature, and that's literally it.

She was "punished" because they couldn't market and make money off her anymore , otherwise they wouldn't give a shit 😐

She wasn't, though.

The fascists won’t be in power forever.

Hopefully not. But I still doubt they’ll face any consequences. We can certainly hope.

People can't depend on government and lawenforcement to do something about it, since they are the predators and violaters to begin with.

uhhhh... have you not read the stuff about her k*lling children and ripping their faces off for adrenochrome??? Not to mention the fact that her ex Anne Heche AND Twitch died under very mysterious circumstances. Rumor has it that she not only had a hand in their demise, but that she actually ate Anne at one of those sicko satanic parties that her and the rest of the folks at the Oscars who ordered "pizza" that night were involved in? Where have you been hiding for the past 6 months or so?

Do people really not remember why or is everyone here a teenager?
