    as someone else said: now his time travel experiment is worthless, cause there’s a very good reason no one from the future wanted to go party with him

    Does anybody actually believe that Stephen Hawking was involved in the illegal activities?

      I believe that he was probably a sexual person in some form and he probably had money so maybe he might have paid for sex. But I have no idea really.

        Maybe in his earlier life. He was married more than once and had three children.

        His name does appear in the Epstein files, but he was never actually accused of anything related to Epstein. To say that Hawking was a pedophile is speculation at best.

        Another factor here is that Epstein was obsessed with physics and being friends with physicists.

        While Epstein was always a monster. He could hide it around certain people.

        But from everything I’ve read, the monster always comes out. And we all know what being Epstein’s friend eventually entails.

          That’s pure speculation. Your argument what is referred to as “guilt by association”. Your argument has no basis. It wouldn’t hold up in court.

            These people don’t care. I got downvoted to hell by saying the same thing. Apparently factual evidence isn’t the norm in here.

    Was he implicated in nefarious shit?
    Afaik Epstein had a thing for physics and other physicists are in the files because he liked the subject.

    Is it though? There’s the whole causality argument, where if time travel does get invented in the future, then you can only travel back to that moment

    How would he even go about removing it. Its not like “the files” are a stack of random paper pages in a safe somewhere.

      He could go back in time and give his caretaker a note to give to him a week before they met that said “And STAY AWAY from that Epstein… He’s a bad egg!”.

          I think the point is he was attempting to reach out to time travelers… or skeptically making fun of the idea with the time travelers party that no one showed up for.

            If you were a time traveller, would you want to go back in time to hang out with someone mentioned in the Epstein files?

            This all proves that time travellers are real, because they didn’t go to his party knowing about his Epstein links.

        Or hawking is a piece of shit who was full well aware of what was going on, partook and thus has expanded no effort to go back in time to stop himself from hanging out with child raping scumbags.

        I’m so bitterly disappointed with so many people. Especially Hawking.

    Doesn’t that just mean he never figured it out? Doesn’t mean it’s impossible for everyone forever.
