Idk what you're not getting here, I said it would be cool to investigate every case. You seem to agree with that sentiment, so idk why you're rehashing it.

There is no sarcasm or I would have tagged it as such.

The rest of my comment is about how we, the general public, not the FBI or the DOJ or the Attorney's office, are reacting to this situation.

Yeah,my point was that you seemed to imply if you’re already a publicly scrutinised person and you’re in those files, you should expect to avoid scrutiny.

That’s not going to happen. If you’re innocent of crimes with children, you’ll be far overshadowed by those who we will see unequivocal evidence for (and that will be leaked soon, you can be sure), so you can mostly breathe fine.

You’d be best off not defending them. It sort of sounds like you’re defending them. I apologise if I’m reading you wrong, but I want all those responsible to pay, and I’m fine with investigating collateral friendships to get there.

I just think it's a waste of breath misleading people into thinking everything related to this case is a list of pedophiles, and if it interferes with actual investigation and prosecution of real criminals then it's also actively harmful.

And I am definitely not defending musk, I started this conversation by saying he murdered millions including children.

I never said that at all. Obviously loads of innocent names will be attached to this, and I think most of us know that. We’re not that dumb.

This is about US Politics. A lot of us are literally that dumb. FFS, look who got elected president.

I’m sure it’s frightening, but it’s not going away.
