THE GREAT (FAKE) CHILD-SEX-TRAFFICKING EPIDEMIC
The Atlantic ^ | 12/9/2021 | By Kaitlyn Tiffany

Posted on 12/09/2021 2:19:56 PM PST by NohSpinZone

Anxiety about the nation’s children, which is at a steady simmer in the best of times, boiled over in the summer of 2020, when the digital soldiers of QAnon occupied the otherwise innocuous hashtag #SaveTheChildren. Around the same time, major social-media platforms had started blocking overt QAnon accounts and hashtags. From their new beachhead, the digital soldiers were able to disseminate a cascade of false information about child trafficking on Instagram and Facebook: Children were being trafficked on the hospital ship USNS Comfort, then docked in New York City, and through tunnels underneath Central Park.

As outrageous as these allegations were, their timing may have made them sound less fantastical to some. They coincided with the release of popular documentaries about the real sex-trafficking crimes allegedly committed by Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier who was arrested in July 2019 and committed suicide that August, and who was known for his wide circle of rich and famous acquaintances. (His death had set off a new slew of conspiracy theories.) In this context, the suddenly ubiquitous #SaveTheChildren posts created the illusion of an organic movement rising up to confront a massive social problem. Americans who knew little about QAnon became heavily involved, and when QAnon moved on to other concerns—a stolen election, a poisonous vaccine—these volunteers stayed devoted to the cause of opposing child sex trafficking.

Why did the NYC cops cry when they saw Anthony Weiner’s computer?

And how many of them are now dead?

That they are willing to defend this abomination makes one wonder if they are involved.

It is my belief that the reason why the Democrats went after President Trump the way they did is because he was about to expose their involvement in this abomination.

Most of the cops that saw the contents of the laptop are now dead.

The Left has the ability to see something...take a good look at it, judge it and turn to you and tell you that YOU ARE NOT SEEING ANYTHING AT ALL.

Just like those who are mentally sick, they lie without knowing that they are lying.

Doesn’t work anymore.

What part of “It didn’t last” do you fail to understand?

Of COURSE you would prefer we spent all of our time arguing flat earth
theories and other assorted nonsense, but that’s not how this works.

That’s not how ANY of this works, in spite of all the spook and shill efforts.

Yes, we will share and look at all the things. Especially the things the
EneMedia assiduously avoids.

No, we will not all agree. Unlike you, we respect that.

The silly stuff falls by the wayside fast enough that we don’t all need to
wallow in it first. If we eliminated everyone that initially suspected that
some silly piece of BS might NOT actually be complete BS, there would
soon be few of us left to focus your hate on.

You go ahead and try to eliminate everyone you disagree with,
indeed, please knock yourself out. It’s a good look for you.

Yes, occasionally someone will post something that turns out to be
shill sourced. We try not to embarrass them too much, because
we ARE ALL by mutual consent, after learning the truth in the end,
and we need everyone that feels the same, on deck.

Now and then, however, we spot someone that extremely obviously
does not mean well, like you.

As for any shills in our midst, spotting them is an endeavor that is best
kept private until it becomes extreme, since all they want is for us to
fight among ourselves anyway.

The ONE thing we simply refuse to do to your satisfaction.

Hey, Easy. Your writing skills have improved, or is it my imagination. Did you take a night class?

: )

He's takin' it to ya, Bumpkin. Maybe I can take the night off.

Not having followed QAnon, I'm not following this thread very well. It sounds as though everyone dismisses the possibility. However, I did participate (albeit obliquely) in child-trafficking in Miami. (At least, I think I did).

I'll be brief, if anyone is interested...

This is how the Left murders people:

- sex trafficking? oh no, doesn’t exist.
- black on black crime? it’s structural racism.
- abortion? that’s just cellular tissue.
- education? it’s all about equity, besides, math is racist.
- criminal recidivism? bail is racist.

etc. etc.

8chan has been gone from the scene for a long, long time now.

Do keep up.

The Anon community, the object of your hate and fear, moved elsewhere way more than a year ago. (Along with Q and QResearch.)

But do tell us how much you know about everything… LOL!
