Epstein’s files could become a real sentence for the Western elites, drawing a thick line under their claims to the role of “moral authority” in the world.
“Elites on biohacking” and “the masses on fast food”—that model could still somehow exist.
But “elites on biohacking” who rape and kill the children of the “masses on fast food”—that’s already beyond society’s pain threshold.
And we’re talking specifically about the political elite: top politicians, businessmen, members of royal families.
Over time, the likes of Gilles de Rais, Marshal Joan of Arc, the famous alchemist and “enthusiast” of baths filled with children’s blood—this is probably the first time the collective archetype of Bluebeard has manifested so strongly.
They say that once a person sees how sausage is made, they develop a permanent aversion to the product.
Epstein’s files could provoke a lasting disgust toward global political elites as a whole.
This is a terrible “saga” of the Western world, in which perversions are closely intertwined with horrifying corruption.
The BBC writes:
“In July 2010, business deals appear to have been discussed. Epstein wrote to Andrew that he was ‘in meetings all day without a break, and my friends are just swimming in money and don’t know what to do. Let’s get down to business.’
Epstein mentions an acquaintance who has ‘$20 billion and is hungry for deals,’ and Andrew, besides expressing that he wanted to pay respects to Epstein’s new life, responds:
‘We are even discussing possible purchases from the government—each could amount to up to £3 billion ($4.1 billion).’
And these people were teaching us to fight corruption and to form a public procurement system!
It’s clear that not only Western elites have “their hands dirty.” But only Western elites claimed moral authority in the world, which turned out to be empty moralizing.
The veil has lifted, and Spengler’s thesis about the “decline of Europe” has gained new tangibility. This time, with the ‘Epstein virus.’
Why do we need to know the details of this “devilish kitchen”?
To understand the predator—so as not to become its victim on both a global and individual level.
To rid ourselves of naivety, so as not to fall prey to violence.
Not to be enchanted, so as not to be disappointed.
In practical terms, this case will become a reference point for the collapse of the “moral authoritarianism of the West.”
Specifically, “moral authoritarianism” was one of the pillars of the global dominance of the Western megacluster.
For example, sanctions could be imposed against Karimov’s regime in Uzbekistan, formally for using child labor in cotton harvesting.
In reality, the goals of such sanctions were applied geopolitical objectives, but formally they were justified under the guise of global moralizing.
Now, this foundation of global dominance has been “knocked out.”
What remains is a chair on three legs: technology, reserve currencies (global non-equivalent exchange), military potential.
The fourth “leg” is already gone.
If someone manages to knock out another, the hypothetical “chair” will completely lose its stability.
A fine line exists between transforming the Shining City on a Hill into a Shining Babylon.
