man please don't do this conspiracism on here in cases that obviously don't warrant it. it's weird and immediately tints the discussion in a bad way.

This one makes plenty of sense. If someone wanted to off him, they would have done it years ago, not play the long game and let him sit in jail for literally decades.

He had late stage cancer. I woulda offed myself too.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah, there's not even a whiff of conspiracy here. No reason to off him now. Prison is miserable enough without cancer.

Given his prognosis, suicide seems like a perfectly reasonable way out. Unlike Epstein, I don’t doubt this for a second.

Suicide is news to me. That is sad. Your subtitle of comparing him to Epstein is odd though. He has already completed his work and as he saw it for good not for hurting children.

The point of the comment was. The Unabomber was in for 20 something years and suddenly he committed suicide that's so random. Epstein was in for a week and committed suicide? That's just reflags everywhere.

I’m pretty sure it wasn’t random. He realized that he was going to die from cancer while still in prison. Kinda takes the will to live away.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

He got moved to the prison he just died in for medical reasons a year or two ago. I expected his death immanently. If it was suicide I think the other commenter saying suicide with an already quick death my illness makes sense.

How would him being killed after 20 something years be any less random than him committing suicide?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cause it was so random. After all these comments today I didn't know he had cancer. So yea there's that

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

But if he hadn't had cancer, both being killed and committing suicide would be random. So why would the randomness point to him being killed?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I thought he was in a hospital/medical center because he was ill? Not sure where I seen the source for it and can't read the article as it's prompting me to use an app

I wonder where people see the conspiracy here tbh.
