Absolutely. There are many worthwhile things in this world that are exceedingly difficult to do. But you start and you try, and where you fail you learn and improve.

In the 1970s and 1980s it must have seemed impossible that one day we would live in a world where two gay men could get married and start a family. Yet there were people who believed that it was right and fair, and they worked on achieving it. It took nigh on 50 years, but our world is better for it.

Defos bestie, a lot of people who fall victim to manipulation by people with status or power usually have some difficulties at home and are easily manipulated because they are promised to have such a good life blah blah.

hopefully one day we can abolish child abuse.

and I ****ing hate that Epstein committed self delete

I just wondered if they knew. Is this going to be a thing now? Like some sort of weird tourist destination?

They definitely knew, I mean it’s such a recognisable place and it was so widely publicised. It’s ****ed

The bloke who wrote From PsyOp to Mindwar with Micheal Aquino and who has spent the last 20 years doing everything he can to promote f’ed up "conservative"/neo lib and neo con policies is on fox spruiking Qanon to a bunch of people without the critical thinking skills to see thru it, using the techniques he developed throughout his career in the US military as a psychological warfare expert and eventually there is a half arsed putsch niot unlike the farce in Munich on the 20s.

I'd never seen that Daily grail article before today actually but I'd have thought the conclusion he's too scared to really own is fu**en obvious to anyone with half a brain.

What if there is a secret, far-right group consisting of an association of white supremacists, Nazis, mobbed up millionaires, and generally fascist-leaning RWNJs – and QAnon is a psy-op they created to build an army of useful idiots, who would help spread their message so that eventually a large portion of the population would be compliant when the American putsch goes down?

The only part of that comment that isn't a reasonable conclusion is bolded. Its not even particularly secret.

Interestingly, I find the conclusion of the Salon article you linked entirely plausible. There is no link between the Epstein case and the QAnon fiction. QAnon is a fantasy that was designed simply as propaganda to mobilise support for Donald Trump.

There doesn't have to be an actual link for it to be assumed in the minds of the target audience. You're wrong about the bold bit tho. Trump is almost incidental to it. Like I said upthread and earlier in this comment, the daily grail writer got it right tho he probably doesn't want to face the implications of his comment. Its designed to build an army of useful idiots to aid in a far right uprising. Trump's a useful stepping stone along the way but this stuff is neither new or unique to Trump. And QAnon is just the latest iteration of CFR/Trilateral Commission run the world conspiracy theories. Guess who was a member of both groups. LOL.




Survivors is a better term and I should have used it, I normally do when I'm talking about this sh*t. I know quite a few. Some who were accused of being conspiracy theorists when they tried to tell their stories. Others who have been thru fu**en horrific, mind boggling things, just want to be left along. Some just dealt with ordinary sleazy creeps. And things in between.



Part of the structural issue with those laws is the concept that people under 18 shouldn't be publically identified. Its reasonable but what happened with Grace Tame illustates its limits. On the positive side we are listening to her point out the issues it raised and will probably act on them. This is a good thing. But yeah by all means listen to what she has to say. I don't think she's right about the eradication of child abuse tho, for a whole bunch of reasons.



It isn't special because it is mundane, banal ... business as usual, its just something that not in full public view. A few years ago one of Bowie and Jimmie Page's 14 year old groupies wrote an article talking about how much fun she had back in the 70s.... She copped alot of backlash from survivors of abuse for wtte of not being sufficiently traumatised. Don't get me wrong. They were sleazy campaigners, its dodgy as. But her treatment was hardly supportive. Those two were cultural icons, they didn't need a network it was the rock and roll lifestyle at the time.




Like I said, i know more than enough survivors to have a very jaded view of the world. There is nothing special about Epstein and Maxwell. Its how the world's intelligence agencies operate. The people who groomed Epstein were connected to the US intelligence community. Its a pretty safe assumption that Maxwell's old man worked for both Mossad and MI6 and she was well enough connected to them, her father groomed her for his lifestyle. Its not like this is the only one of these networks either. Its just getting busted cos the people that operated it and ran it are old news and no longer powerful enough to keep their hands clean.

it would be nice to live in a world where this sort of thing didn't happen but how do you achieve it?

As an aside, one of Robert Maxwell's companies was an early publisher of Tetris.

It’s from some reality tv show called Real Housewives of Portland. The person who posted it is just really into reality tv. Bloody odd.

Couple of old Italian mobsters sitting down for a chat. A lot of bad blood between these two for many different reasons.

Still can’t believe Sammy isn’t in jail considering the amount of people he admitted to murdering, then got out for ratting out Gotti and then got done again for being a major ecstasy dealer went back to jail and got out again.

Assuming your babcia is from around the same era as my parents, my dad only ever spoke Polish with babcia as well. But she had a thick accent right to the end.
Babcias are awesome btw.
