    There is no elite cabal of wealthy pedophiles. Conspiracy theories are for lonely people with nothing better to do. Fun at home but potentially dangerous when spread around

    I'm sure some wealthy elite people dabble in sex trafficking however low IQ conspiracy types usually severely overestimate the competence and degree of cooperation needed to cover a grand hollywood Hollywood thriller conspiracy.

    These type of people never heard of the phrase "like hearding cats".

    Exactly. Epstein got a way with a lot and convinced many to look the other way...but no, there are plenty of pu**y hounds in Hollywood. That’s natural and expected. Trafficking young girls is a whole nother stratosphere. There’s nothing to indicate that wealth is a direct correlation to wanting to screw underage girls.

    I would say wealthy people have the same percentage of pedophiles as non-wealthy people. Wealthy people just have more means to get away with it. However it isn't this grand coordinated consipracy like a Hollywood thriller trope like the trolls and lunatics say. Most of these people spreading these conspiracies are bad faith actors. The lunatics are their prey.

    I guess I'll put this here.

    @Space Ghost this is what start as a few bad apples that, thanks to POTUS and the GOP party, has now corrupted the party, minds of many of its follower and some of the general public.

    In May 2019, the Federal Bureau of Investigation reportedly flagged QAnon’s ideas as a potential domestic terror threat due to the violent actions its members have taken because of their beliefs

    ...

    Dangerous conspiracies are nothing new in politics. In previous presidential-election campaigns, people like Sabal were largely consigned to the sidelines, ignored by their parties and left to spin their tales on street corners and in remote internet forums.

    This year, in an unprecedented shift that will likely have profound implications for the future of American politics, key leaders of the Republican Party have openly sought to amplify and encourage the ravings of Trump's QAnon supporters, placing the party's radical fringe front and center.

    Only a few Republican politicians have avowedly aligned themselves with QAnon, and even they have distanced themselves from the movement after facing criticism.

    But by openly spreading QAnon lies — and by discreetly adopting messaging that aligns with adherents' obsession with false claims of child sex-trafficking — GOP leaders and institutions, including Trump, the National Republican Congressional Committee, and multiple GOP congressional nominees, are harnessing the energy of a violent cult for their political advantage.

    ...

    GOP political strategists acknowledged in interviews with Insider that Republicans view QAnon believers and the movement not as a liability or as a scourge to be extinguished, but as a useful band of fired-up supporters. While they're careful not to embrace QAnon explicitly, these Republicans said, they make sure not to adopt messages that alienate what has become a key part of the Republican coalition.
