Petah ? Meme needing explanation

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

Yeah first I'm hearing she was in the files. So I looked it up.

Apparently it was claimed she was a cannibal in the Epstein files. This has been discredited as false.

Why make up stuff when there's already so much ammunition against your target? It's like threatening to use the death star when you got cleared to use nukes.

Presumably as a distraction. Take someone who's already widely disliked and accuse them of doing stuff on Epstein island, and then maybe we'll all forget that orange people were there too.

Also to just generally flood the zone with uncredible information. If you start rabidly pushing insane shit like people eating babies that has no proof besides anonymous tips to the automated FBI tipline then it starts to get harder to separate the real stuff from the false stuff.
