    Not only that, but the side of politics which regularly fantasizes publicly about murdering pedophiles is awful quiet about the fact that the vast majority of offenders come from their ranks.

      I kinda wonder.

      Sexual abuse is often more about power than about physical gratification.

      Child abuse of this nature is pretty universally decried as one of the most heinous crimes.

      So after these rich pieces of shit get away with breaking all the other laws on the books, are they going after kids for the thrill of feeling untouchable by any standard of law and morality?

      And to further that, I wonder if there’s almost some sort of sick initiation that involves this sort of abuse. Once you’re in “the group”, they can out you for all the sick and illegal shit you’ve been involved with so you can’t turn on anyone else. This also follows tactics commonly used by Russia etc.

      Given all the stuff that’s happened and turned out to be projection, what’s the chance there actually was some sort of pizzeria based child-dungeon, but operated by the same people throwing out accusations?

        But this guy is being open about it. Apparently being a paedophile isn’t blackmail material for CEOs. Elon does it, the president does it, thousands of people on Twitter do it. Goddamn.

      Because it’s easier for these psychopaths to believe that there’s a cage of children in some random pizza restaurant basement rather than believe a billionaire has a group of children in their mcmansions.
