I mean it's classic Orwellianism to make up wild claims so that they seem normal when you do it. It's also called hypernormalization. Say crazy outlandish thing that doesn't exist. Then when it happens no one is surprised. The Big Lie. Etc.
I still remember conspiracy theory that we are ruled by pedophiles....
In early 2000s....
In 2020s this is a well know, properly documented fact.
Casting couch jokes... Were not jokes either...
Mass government surveillance without warrants... Also a know fact ... Now
All of these were "conspiracies"
Lab leak theory was suppressed aggressively, now it is considered viable but we just don't know
Regime propganda appratus can't even keep its narrative straight anymore but sadest part is that with polarization, they don't have to. Normies will larp their team no matter what, like docile dogs
It is disgusting seeing what should adult people behave in such a way. Caring more about politics than people around them
So we really got the rulers we deserve as a body of people.
Nobody outside the NYC Metro North/PATH area who was alive at the time ever talks about this, but the wealthy men nightclub pedophilia (in terms of like 14yos) was an open secret. From 1984-1996-ish there was a whole "Klub Kids" scene where like, Andy Warhol, Salvador Dali, and Donald Trump would all be snorting lines of coke off a 15yo at Studio 54 in 1984 (Netflix did a documentary about a murder by an influencer of that scene several years ago). I literally knew kids who were part of that scene at the time (all the ones I knew became heroin addict homeless goth young adults by the late 90's and I presume are dead by now). Donald Trump was regionally known as the most famous enjoyer of the Klub Kids scene at the time.
I think you’re talking about the film “Glory Daze: The Life and Times of Michael Alig” and the associated Club Kids scene. Folks may also recall the film “Party Monster” about the same guy.
I’m somewhat familiar with the Club Kid scene and while they were often young and often used drugs, I’m not convinced of the sex trafficking scheme that your post seems to imply. Do you have any references, if that is your claim?
No press sources, just kids in that scene from back then. In a small cohort of goth kids in the region in the mid 90's, I knew several. They'd disappear down allegedly to NYC for that shit, I have no firsthand experience, I've always had a Bart Simpson belly and wasn't a mid-90's sexy twink so I was an observer from afar of the scene. It's also kind of unfair to describe it as "trafficking" to some extent, not to defend 40yo bankers banging 14yos, it was "cool" like... Have you ever read the OG Gossip Girl books the show was based on? I have not but it seems to be the manhattanite experience of that scene
That makes sense (I have not read those books) but yeah I could see that kinda thing going down… I appreciate the context
… So, Sexy Bart Simpson costume this year or what? 👻
