not everyone who emailed Epstein is a pedo, but rich, vain and stupid people need elite circles where you can get insider trading tips and say you fired your housekeeper for making eye contact, and with that comes more severe moral degradation you'd be aware of if you weren't halfway there yourself

Cheery was aware that Commander Vimes didn't like the phrase 'The innocent have nothing to fear', believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like 'The innocent have nothing to fear'.
