Am I the only one who thinks that sometimes things are just as they appear?

104. Fascinating how the propaganda wheel turns

"Epstein was suicidal." Please cite the clinician issuing this supposed edict.

"He had tried before." And yet, most stories on the incident from a few weeks earlier do note that Epstein himself repeatedly insisted he had been beaten up and that the finger marks around his neck were not his own. (BTW, hasn't science proven that it's actually impossible to choke oneself with your own hands? Has anyone here ever tried this trick themselves? Just curious.)

"He probably acted all normal and calm so he could be taken off suicide watch." Wasn't he taken off suicide watch because he was quite vociferously insisting that he had been attacked, and someone who actually understands how physiology works agreed that he couldn't have choked himself to near death?

So, I guess, in an odd and perverted way, the original post is correct, just not in the way the writer thought (exactly opposite, in fact), in that "sometimes things are just as they appear."
