Comment on President Trump shows President Zelenskyy and President Macron his 4 More Years hats

If we don’t take collective action and start caring about our communities and linking arms with people we don’t agree with on everything, we are going back to a time when little girls are property of the state and have no future past “fleshlight for fat old fucks” or “baby machine.”

International sex trafficking rings have been Hollywood fodder for movies like Taken, for as long as there have been movies. As a human population, we all believe that something like this goes on somewhere.
Now we find out that it was going on for real, and people like Trump, Epstein, Casablanca, Brunel, and others were operating it. Instead of demanding that all of them be rounded up and prosecuted, MAGAs just dismiss the whole thing, even though it was this child sex trafficking ring that inspired their involvement in the first place.
It’s like they got to the bottom of the rabbit hole, and decided “Eh, fuck it, I’m cool with it. Carry on.”

Oh you’re right, it was never about protecting children, it was about feeling special for figuring out a secret “they” don’t want you to know. When “They” come out in the open and just admit to it and show exactly who is doing it and how far it goes without secrecy, it loses interest for the obsessives and people missing things from their lives.
It was about the hunt, not the outcome. And this is an attitude that a LOT of people have about far more things than just Q-anon conspiracy, most liberals and leftists also have their own cars they chase without a plan for what to do when they catch it. Everyone has some storyline they’re engaged with and feel connected to.
And these storylines are deliberately being both seeded and capitalized on to keep a leash around the population and to keep people from unifying.
