believe it or not, the myth of elite cabalism exists to obscure the fact that they simply pay and blackmail politicians. it's so much easier than petitioning the supernatural.

To be fair, there does seem to be a real tradition of “we get together and do things that are embarrassing and possibly illegal to have mutually assured destruction by way of blackmail.” Skull and Bones is supposedly based entirely on that framework.

I'm not super familiar with fraternity hazing antics but I don't know if those work the same as what we conceptualize as cabal rituals. people seem to be more disturbed by say, the Freemasons doing stuff that just boils down to Christianity with cloaks. but can you educate me a little on Skull and Bones? search results regarding them are either full on NWO raving or completely sanitized

I will add that what you describe applies fully to Jeffrey Epstein's mansions and compounds. dude's primary directive was to collect blackmail info. probably safe to assume that to his clients, it was all mutual

There’s a decent Wikipedia entry on them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skull_and_Bones?wprov=sfti1

Tl;dr is they are a secret society at Yale comprised of legacy kids (I believe both presidents Bush were members, for example) that has initiation rites that are supposed to be humiliating which creates a bond. Apparently they have changed quite a bit from their heyday in the first half of the twentieth century.

I thought the Wikipedia page sounded sanitized but since you are the first person I've ever heard mention them, I'll take your word on its accuracy. TIL more about secret societies

They do love to get together. Sometimes publicly like at Davos to meet at the WEF. Sometimes they like to meet more secretively like at Bohemian Grove. Sometimes they all just know and pay a guy named Jeffrey Epstein.

So it kind of is a cabal. It’s the cabal of people that pay and blackmail each other for favors. And if you’re not quite in the club then you do the legal version of it called lobbying.

they do, but what you're describing doesn't electrify superstitious Americans the way a story about a virgin sacrifice does. hell Christians are more worried about satanic rituals than they are about literal pedophiles.

we can get into the why of that but I get the feeling you already know

I found an unedited photograph of a real ritual.

Love this weird animation style. Has some cool YouTube show about hamsters people forget what it's called

This is Drue Langlois, his videos are pure artistic genius😌👌

Visually it reminds me a lot of the Hanna-Barbera / Filmation style from the 60s-80s ish. Like Johnny Quest or Star Trek The Animated Series.

Love this weird animation style.

I'm pretty sure it's Rotoscoping

[-] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

Pretty sure it's a lot simpler than that.
