Why do people talk about the "Epstein Files" story so much when there's nothing unusual about powerful people talking advantage of the weak?

This is wider and bigger than anything in the past and no honest diplomacy or legit business can be conducted as long as some men can be controlled and manipulated around filthy secret$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

And everyone in that special rich powerful class seems to be in on it, will we ever truly know, money buys silence too...
