Now we can’t really know whether or not it was because time travel isn’t real or if no one from the future wants to make history by meeting with a pedophile.

    Stephen Hawking, a pedo?

    What are you talking about?

      He’s in the Epstein files

      Edit: Just because someone is mentioned in the Epstein files doesn’t mean they are a pedophile. The premise of OPs post is based on the fact that Hawking is somehow associated with Epstein, which has spawned rumors (from dubious sources) about some kind of impropriety.

        He is in the files with context being about his attendance to a scientific conference.

        There is a viral picture of him and some women in a bikini at a party but those where verified to be his staff/caregivers.

        Everyone who had contact with Epstein deserves scrutiny and should be included in investigations but simply being in the files is in no way proof of wrongdoing on its own.

        If you believe being in the Epstein files makes Stephen Hawking a pedo, well that certainly explains a lot today.

          I’m sorry if I implied more than I meant. I suppose information like this really deserves more context, given how inflamatory it is…

          I have no idea if Steven Hawking did anything wrong, but the context for OP’s post is an assumption about Hawking based on his presence in the Epstein files.

    If you routinely find that nonsensical thoughts about pedophilia are intruding while you’re in the shower, seek professional help. But there’s no need to inflict them on lemmy.

        I see you’ve misunderstood me by thinking that I was replying to a specific question that you didn’t ask.

        I was responding to the whole post.
