Atheist blogger Rebecca Watson has a more personal take on this, since Dawkins and Epstein were conspiring against her in the emails:

Epstein Files Reveal How Pathetic Richard Dawkins & Other Men Are

https://skepchick.org/2026/02/epstein-files-reveal-how-pathe...

my name was in the first Epstein document drop because back in 2011 I criticized physicist Lawrence Krauss for defending his “friend” Jeffrey Epstein, years after Epstein was revealed to be a pedophile running a sex trafficking ring. Unbeknownst to me at the time, Krauss immediately forwarded my critical emails to Epstein

The second email drop reveals Dawkins later joins this attack on her, in order to defend Knauss and Epstein.

Jesus, that is a read

A generation deified via TV appearances and book sales for decades.

They look online and see humanity moving on.

They look in the mirror and see less time ahead of them than behind them.

From parent comment's link:

Unbeknownst to me, the day prior, July 4th 2011, Richard Dawkins reached out to John Brockman with a question. Brockman was a powerful New York literary agent who ran Edge.org, which was bankrolled by Jeffrey Epstein. Brockman served as a connection between Epstein and all the various scientists and public intellectuals Epstein wanted to meet, and so his name shows up a LOT in these files. Here’s what Brockman looks like, in a photo taken of him along with Steven Pinker, Daniel C. Dennett, Katinka Matson, and, oh, Richard Dawkins from one time they flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s plane together.

Oof.
