I am not convinced declass will not happen.  If enough of the so-called powerful get caught up in something like the Epstein saga, there will be enough to weaken them, like links in a chain that become unstable. At that point they can be picked off, one by one. If it is done as a meticulous process, it can still happen. More people are awakened every day and I do not think it can be swept under the carpet. It is a festering sore that needs to be excised.
