Not disagreeing with you that there's a tipping point. But it hasn't been reached yet. So, what will convince them? And what do you think is in the Epstein files? I'm not confident that anything short of graphic physical evidence will move the needle. and that's never being released, if it exists.

The tipping point as a whole hasn't been reached, sure. But every single day some people's tipping point is reached because of something and it's different for everyone. I don't think there is any single thing that will convince anyone left in the cult, it's gonna be a totality of many different >

> take many forms,from newly released data like the Epstein files,to conversations with friends, especially ones that hit/are close to hitting, their tipping point. As for what's in the files? Almost certainly that their friendship was more than has been implied,likely graphic descriptions of acts…

I highly doubt there will be any photographic/video evidence in the files, though I would be surprised if it doesn't exist somewhere, given his penchant for blackmail…

Oh!Another point is that while everyone has their reason that would cause them to leave, not all of them are "good" reasons. I've seen some people turn on him because he wasn't marginalizing the people they hate fast enough, but that's why I say that EVERYONE has a point they will stop trusting him.

I appreciate the optimism. All good points. And you're right, everyone will have a tipping point.
