We keep track of the release of the files, but also to explore what’s already available, and why – with enough exposure – this could bring the man down, and who knows even his regime or the empire.

To add onto this, the Epstein case wasn't even a conspiracy theory. He got a plea deal in 2008 under the Bush Admin and a case was built against him under Bush and Obama culminating in an arrest of Epstein and Maxwell, and Maxwell's trial then sentencing from 2016 to 2018.
We also knew Trump was involved because Trump told us so on Television in 2002, and we had seen televised footage of the two attending parties together in 1992, and Epstein even mentioned it in his deposition in 2010.
There was conspiring, so it was a conspiracy.
It wasn't a conspiracy theory, because it was a confirmed conspiracy. But too many people don't know the difference between a conspiracy and a conspiracy theory.
Yeah I figured the context made it clear that we were speaking of theories.
You said it "wasn't even a conspiracy" when what you meant was "it wasn't even a theory."
No, the context doesn't make it so clear that you can say the opposite of what you mean and expect no one to correct you.
I'll make the edit if it makes you feel better
The Miami Herald had published a lot of stories by the time Q came around. So all Q was was projection. Every accusation is a confession, there are no exceptions.
As someone who entered adulthood around the mid-10s, it was hard to keep track of what was real and what was bullshit between things like Anonymous, WikiLeaks, QAnon, and the Epstein files.
It was really hard to sort the nonsense from reality. Or more accurately by volume, the reality from the nonsense.
they were clearly going to try and just limit punishment to maxwell/epstein though
Technically there are still open cases, hampered by the multiple Trump admins no doubt, but yeah the files have a lot of people saying tbey could have done much more.
