    Musk wanted to bring his wife to the pedo island and when Epstein warned him she might not like the “ratio” he said she wouldn’t mind. Spouses of famous and powerful men may either be so beholden or devoted to them they will excuse their actions, or they might also be just as bad. Epstein’s girlfriend was his primary co-conspirator.

    I don’t know that Chomsky is bad, he could just be a clueless professor, but inviting his wife along isn’t an indicator that he didn’t know what the island experience was.

      In theory, sure—but that combined with his being in his 90s makes cluelessness far more likely.
