I have spent hours looking through the files and some of the stories are absolutely disgusting. I am having such a hard time because so many citizens don't even know how awful they get and they aren't all even fully released... I am close to feeling like we need pitchforks, torches and shovels if this justice system won't actually do anything... He had a ranch where a witness wrote in saying there are TWO bodies located on the property and they haven't even reported that in the media. I'll link that one below too. It's just so... Horrible. We can't just pretend this doesn't exist... but idk what happens next for the United States and the world. It's not something a country just moves on from.

No one is asking about the girls that did not make it back from the island. These criminals are lucky we are no longer in the medieval period

Crist... whoever is responsible for this, or did this to another human being needs to be fucking shot. Not in the head, no no... but in the knee caps, shins... everywhere to make it just-as, if not more painful than the pain their victims felt.

Plan a day to burn down Zorro Ranch. Thats my first thought.

Bodies are there, but a lot of citizens would need to go. We also need to ignore this leadership and find a new leader to engage in change. Thats a really difficult part. What a mess.

From google maps: 49 Zorro Ranch Rd, San Rafael, NM 87056

When I googled it days ago it was the ranch....

Read up on anarchist praxis and revolt. The only way out is to burn this fucker down and build something new.

This isn't just about America, or MAGA, or even Trump. I always understood that this was an international enterprise, but as I read this stuff, I'm realizing that it was bigger and uglier than my worst imaginings.

I just read about a wealthy guy in a Detroit in the 70s who ran an Epstein-like operation on an island he purchased in one of the Great Lakes. He built a giant mansion on it, and started hosting underage sex parties for wealthy men. The article suggested that he might have been an inspiration for Epstein.

The point is that these people have always been here, and now that Epstein is gone, someone else will be taking his place. Nobody understands the scope of Epstein's business better than his best friend Trump, who also recognizes how lucrative it is, and he is psychological incapable of resisting those riches.

He also has easy access to plenty of sex products. He has enormous detainment centers full or poorly documented children, separated from their families, lawyers, or anyone else who might care about them. They could be disappeared for a long time before someone notices, if ever. I'm sure we'll find that the prettiest ones, of both sexes, are being scheduled for transfer...somewhere.

Putin has also kidnapped thousands of Ukrainian children, another source for East European girls, for those who aren't turned on by brown children.

You can bet that someone is rebuilding an international child sex operation somewhere, and I'm betting that Trump is in on it.

and these are the people Iranian diaspora are begging to drop bombs on Iran. I bet their ancestors would be rolling in their graves because of the disgrace some of these diaspora Iranians have become.

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

You can bet it doesn't need to be rebuilt because it never stopped and Epstein was just part of an international ring that involved people from all kinds of positions of authority. In my city alone there were law enforcement , boy scout leaders, and Catholic priests all enabling each other and helping to cover up their crimes while flying people in from all over the world to do this fucked up shit.

Thats one city. Imagine that kind of fucked up shit has been happening all over the world for decades or maybe even centuries. No way in hell it ever stopped because Epstein was indisposed.

You know that plot in the original true detective about the Louisiana pedophile murder ring? It turns out that was almost certainly based on real stories.

I will say that it's fucking insane to think about the fact that Trump and all of his oligarch friends have now legalized kidnapping and trafficking people thanks to ICE/DHS. The implications of what they're almost certainly continuing to do out in the open have got to be pretty obvious, right?

Kidnapping so many people that you can just get away with just losing track of them? Why wouldn't they just keep doing the same shit they've always done?

Check out the franklin scandal from the 80s. It might be the same CIA ring as Epstein.

[–] SynAcker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Do you have more information about the thing you describe around Detroit?

[–] spex@lemmy.world 12 points 11 hours ago (1 children)
[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 7 hours ago

That's the one. Fascinating story.

[–] Felis_Rex@lemmy.zip 13 points 15 hours ago (9 children)

Anything less than death is far too little for these sick fucks.

Swift and quickly, this needs to end and be left in the past.

Remember, the FBI found NOTHING to even start looking into an investigation.

Zero reasons.

This is what I don't get when folk online treat girls under 18 of any age as the same thing. A full grown person 30 something adult being with a 17 year old is exploitative, controlling and weird.

Being with an 8 year old is monstrous and, frankly, worthy of the death penalty.

I'm not excusing the first, but do people really see no difference? If you need a legal line in the sand to determine if it's either totally fine or straight to the guillotine then maybe there's something wrong with you.

[–] GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world 19 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Fuck, man, doing this to an adult is heinous. Doing it to a child? I'm not typically a violent person. But I'd kill them.
