What if Chomsky was the only one ACTUALLY associated with Epstein for tax advice. He was too autistic to get the whole wink wink nudge nudge routine and was just like "Jeff I have a real nightmare of a tax situation I need help with, but I don't see why I'd need to take a trip to the Bahamas: can I just email my documents to you?"
That's too much delulu good faith towards Chomsky TBH
Sure, but to be fair, getting mad at this is like calling someone a pervert for asking questions about the food at Hooters. Sure, they're going to eat at a perverted restaurant, but the specific action they are taking is at least about food and not sex.
I'm not saying that it's true, it'd just be extremely funny.
I feel like that would be a good comedy of errors. Epstein, played by Steve Martin, has to keep up appearances of legitimate tax advice while hiding his child trafficking ring from Noam, played by John Candy. Hilarity ensues as a number of close calls almost reveal the truth.
Goddammit I'd watch that
