    Some girls did not make it back from that island! No one is asking the real questions here. What happened to those girls?

      No you’re right. We can’t handle it.

      Share it anyway. Whether or not we can handle it shouldn’t be the issue. The truth should be. Let the world know just how awful these people are and the remarkably unfettered and despicable things they did.

    If there was a situation I’d want something like palantiers software to scan a shitload of video footage and give facial recognition data and a summary to exist… this is it. But of course… since it would actually do some good, it’s not being used for this case.

      Palantir is more likely to be used to try and hide this shit than it this to try and bring it out to light.

        Seeing as Peter Thiel is on the list, and frequented his island and parties, that’s a pretty safe bet that thiel is working to quash any exposure.

        I want to know if they abused boys as well, I bet they did, both thiel and mandelson are gay, and I bet they abused boys. But these releases from the doj are only a few of the people, not what they did. They don’t have to id the victims, but if thiel fucked an underage boy, which we all know he did, it should’ve been disclosed. We need a way to get this information in the public domain.

          you are saying that the guy who injects young boys’ blood into his body to preserve his own youth is also raping young boys?

          woah, man, you are sounding like a conspiracy theorist.

        Obviously, just pointing out… they literally have designed and are using a tool that has the exact capacities needed to do the unthinkable… IE watch countless hours of CSAM, that would wreck the souls of any human with a heart. identify and footnote every instance of a perpetrators face being revealed, identify and log the exact timestamp of each identifying frames.

        We know they won’t use it for this… but the irony of knowing they have the technology that has this exact capability, and are only using it to go after people that more or less have not victimized anyone is so disheartening.

        It’s like if they invented a small portable cheap device that could create safe drinking water wherever you need it, and their only thought was “hey we can use this to waterboard people”.

            no to my knowledge there is no clean water technology that’s used for waterboarding, just noting the sad state that literally the 2 current major events of the year are extreme advances in technology to go through weeks of video footage to track down individuals, and that the DOJ is sitting on an obscene amount of CSAM, most likely involving prominent wealthy people… and there’s no way this technology and this problem are going to be used together.

      I can understand them not distributing the unedited material, but it shouldn’t be hard to get edited stills of any other people in the photos or videos, other than the victims. We should see the faces of these PedoCons.

    death

    I was happy believing snuff movies were a myth, or extremely rare.

    Now I need these bastards dead (extremely painfully if possible, but I’ll take anything that removes them from society).

    I already did, of course, but now it’s even more urgent.

      The moment children and then babies where mentioned, it was a sign that this is a much deeper hole. The initial stages where women and teens where mentioned was just the surface of true evil that lies within.

      Where at the stage where we entered the unthinkable zone. Somewhere where the human part of a human doesn’t matter and where children and even babies are being dragged down.

      Wait I thought to be a true “snuff film” it had to be like an actual scripted narrative film with like “filmmakers” wherein someone is murdered on screen for real, not just home murder movies, am I wrong? If any recorded murder counts then of course there’s snuff films, 3 guys 1 hammer comes to mind, BTK, etc, but I thought it had to be like a proper movie.

      If I’m right then this is more of a home movie/blackmail material situation, I don’t think they have like a secret Woody Allen film (though nothing is impossible, he’s in the files, they could.)

        There are a lot of homemade snuff films unfortunately, what is this 3 guys 1 hammer although I hesitate to ask?

        I saw a gruesome one of a prison riot in south america, I didn’t know what it was right away, as they had like gauze wrapped around this guy’s head to look like a mummy, and were boxcuttering his neck, took me like 10 seconds to realize what it was. Sick shit.

          3 guys 1 hammer is a video of some kids killing a guy, but there’s no plot so I don’t think it counts as a “snuff film,” and by “homemade snuff films” do you mean they have a plot and some production value, lighting, scripting, and someone dies, or do you mean “murder that was filmed?” Because that’s kinda my point I don’t know if it counts without a plot.

          gruesome one of a prison riot in south america,

          See from this description I don’t count that as a “snuff film,” and I’m questioning if it counts, because of course “filmed death” isn’t a myth, there’s countless examples. A quick search defines “snuff films” as:

          snuff film

          noun

          A movie in a purported genre of movies in which an actor is actually murdered or commits suicide

          A film that shows, or purports to show, the actual deliberate killing of one of the performers.

          So that seems to suggest that I’m right.

        I don’t think so. This was on the news just a few days ago. I think the files are quite accessible, but only to high-level officials. The point is that it would take many days of full-time work to sift through everything, and they cannot offload it to other people working for them.
