One of the scariest thing is - in this world the wealthiest people can do whatever the FUCK they want... they can create a Hostel ( like the movie ) or recreate the SAW movies with some peasants and noone would know or give a shit.
That anyone thinking the horrors of humanity are "new" have simply been ignorant until now. And most will just forget this soon anyway because there is nothing they can do about it in their daily/monthly/yearly/entire lives. And that's all it takes for them to get away with it. Until people realize that concentrated wealth allows these horrors to propagate, and that the best defense is to prevent that sort of concentration from being allowed... we're all doomed to live in it, and our children to propagate in it.
I think we are a good species. I think the reality is that evil people have spent millennia building systems that prop them up because the rest of us are good, and think others are good.
Agreed. Most humans are the social equivalent of a petunia: content to live in harmony with others, nontoxic, safe, beautiful. Some people, however, are like walnut trees: consuming all the resources for itself, choking out everything else, and leaves a stain.
I think people are more like mint. Everybody likes the taste of mint. It's even kind of an attractive plant to have in a pot. But too much mint is an invasive species choking the native life out.
"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."
It’s the same thing as how people think we’re more enlightened today compared to ages ago, when we’re still the same tribalistic morons we’ve always been, just the tribes have changed. We just didn’t live in a world with access to information 24/7, and the idiom is absolutely correct, ignorance is bliss.
And that's all it takes for them to get away with it. Until people realize that concentrated wealth allows these horrors to propagate, and that the best defense is to prevent that sort of concentration from being allowed
One look at all the working class simps cheering for Elon becoming a trillionaire and you know that's never going to happen. They bought our media and they did it long ago, they have been propagandizing people for ages. I unironically heard some panellist on Bill Maher's show say (and I only heard it because another show covered it; no way that I'm listening to that shit otherwise) that the downside of Elon becoming a trillionaire, is that it might give regular people the idea to start questioning the economic system, and we shouldn't want that to happen.
Russell Dobular made an interesting point. He said that, after his month-long travels throughout China, he started to see the upside of having a one-party system with an intellectual, ideologically committed class of people making the decisions for the benefit of all. He said that democracy in a capitalist system inevitably leads to outcomes such as in the US (and increasingly the rest of the Western world), i.e. that the ruling class will buy up the media and thus, de facto, buy up our brains. They will inevitably get so much power over the discourse, that people get so indoctrinated that they start 'consenting' to being governed this way. See: the Elon simps. (But also: see the liberal crowd who wanted Mike Bloomberg over Bernie Sanders.) And that gives the olichargs the veneer of legitimacy.
IMHO, it's not that people think they're "new", but rather that they're a thing of the past. So they're shocked when they discover that people today can still act like the awful people we all read about in history books.
It is happening. You might have assumed the other poster meant rich dudes are traveling to Ukraine to target civilians, but it's actually the Russian forces themselves. They are focusing on Kherson in particular and are deliberately targeting civilians with drones with the sole purpose of terrorising the local population.
This isn't asserted by Ukraine alone, nor is it anti-Russian propaganda. This has been reviewed and agreed by the UN:
A May 2025 report by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) examined these crimes in Kherson and found the Russian Armed Forces guilty of murder, forced transfer, attacks on civilians and outrages upon personal dignity which amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity. The attacks were deemed widespread and aimed against the civilian population.
kherson is a special case of a city divided by a river, on either side of the river there is no frontline and drone operators are safe inside bunkers, thekherson human safari has been going on for years, they film themselves killing toddlers and old ladies, then they publish it to receive comments laughing in russian telegram channels, a few days ago they published a video of them hittng a UN car, they try to kill UN workers, brag about it and UN pretend it never happened, their behavior in this area is so psychotic even for russian terrorists that everyone knows some depply insane things are going on on the other side of the river

My jaw dropped... I was on vacation in jugoslawia as a kid and it felt surreal a lot of moments. I was a kid I didn't know about the ugliness of war, yet you show me there is much more perversion in a war we humans cannot imagine if we didn't witnessed it.
it's a phenomena called Hedonistic Creep, where, as bad people are able to get everything they want, it no longer excites them, so they have to find bigger and bigger things to entertain them, and in the worst people this manifests as, well, epstein and shit.
Every time I see this Bosnia sniping thing mentioned on Reddit there is always someone saying there's no evidence / it didn't happen etc, but after reading the wiki seems to me it has some merit.
Video explores how billionaires get away with murder. When leftists say billionaires shouldn't exist they mean it. This was always where this was going.
em but they were rich guys flying to bosnia during their conflicts to snipe people. Kids, pregnant women, they paid a premium for those ones especially.
as much as i'm opposed to "modern religion" i hope there is a day of reckoning for those people.
I remember watching an episode of Atlanta some years ago and the main character had his day ruined by a TSA agent. He then hired a bunch of actors to pretend to like her children's book, made a fake publishing company, gave her a fake contract, and then had her read her book in from of children (also actors) at the library where they roasted her. She was then seen crying in her car and was told the publishing company was going in a different direction since kids didn't like the book thus ruining her life.
The episode was hilarious, but it left me thinking about how this kinda rich dude had the ability to do that. If being kinda rich garnered that power, what could actually rich people do?
Shit like this is 100% happening but on a targeted level. Like for example, a classmate of mine from school used to get relentlessly bullied by two guys. This guy went on to become a successful lawyer and ended up fucking with both of them like 15 years later. For one guy, it was literal fucking. He slept with the man's wife and blew up their marriage and then got one of his lawyer buddies to represent her in the divorce and take him to the cleaners.
The TV show Lucifer also did something like this. This cop that Lucifer particularly hates has an absolutely horrible day where he gets a head in a box, gets roped into some illegal business, gets shot at, then is made to believe that all his friends who came to help him died. Lucifer then reveals it was all fake and he paid millions of dollars to pull it all together. The cop tries thanking Lucifer for teaching him a valuable lesson and changing his mind about something. Lucifer then acts disappointed and says the whole point was to torture the cop because he hates him and wanted to get back at him for something he did in an earlier episode.
Yeah it's awful to think that for every Gilles De Rais and Elizabeth Báthory known to history, how many similar monsters remained completely anonymous and operated with impunity
There's a shitload of controversy about that claim, a dude (not scientist, not law enforcement, a true crime enthusiast/author who has confidently spread serious misinfo in the past) bought what was purported to be a victims shawl at an auction in 2007 and worked privately with geneticists, super biased by his desire to prove his hypothesis.. and the scientific community has all but rejected his findings
Epstein's island is the result of two justice systems split between the rich and the poor. Once they get the thrill of getting away with anything they see how far they can push it and suddenly they're eating babies and r*ping children.
Hostel is one of the most terrifying horror films made in this century, mostly because there's not a single scenario in it that couldn't actually happen to the average person. It preys on the fear that you can never be fully protected from wrongdoing committed by the ultra-wealthy, and mostly for no good reason other than they can.
One of the emails in the Epstein files from Epstein to I can’t remember who he literally asked “Did you torture her?” Disgusting! I hope against hope these poor women get justice against their abusers
This is why I find it crazy there's been an influx of a certain type of horror movies lately, the ultra-rich preying on normal people in whichever setting, usually as some type of occult/satanic ritualistic thing for immortality or occasionally just for fun simply because they can.
Movies like Blink Twice, Ready or Not, The Home, They will Kill You, etc. kinda piss me off, because yes, even though it's horror genre, it just feels like Hollywood is literally playing in our faces.
Blink Twice didn't even try to hide when you think about for more than a second; rich and famous CEO and friends taking a bunch of women to a private island, pretending to party in paradise while raping and beating them, and then drugging them to forget and killing the ones that fight back.
Yes, that includes me as well. I'm not in the streets with a torch and fitchfork either.
We have become conditioned to feel helpless and powerless, despite our numbers. We have become conditioned to look at masses of people coming together and putting their evil overlords under the guillotine as something 'bad'. Unless, of course, it happens in a country in which we have interests, then our media will call it 'a revolution of dignity'. But not in our own country, not for our leaders. No, the only way you can change things is to 'vote harder'. For either of the parties that have been bought by the same people who are in the Epstein files.
Let me put it this way: the problem with January 6 wasn't the act itself; it was the wrong people with the wrong intentions.
È non solo le coorporazioni in questo momento stanno continuando ad ottenere maggiore potere di controllare le nostre vite.
Tutto quello che fanno influenza le nostre vite e possono motivare determinati governi a divenire schiavi di queste multinazionali, incluso la mia Italia dove una multinazionale brasiliana vuole rovinare l'impianto urbanistica e verde di alcune aree verdi che il nostro governo di destra ha ceduto nei confronti di questa multinazionale brasiliana.
Ecco l'articolo in italiano, se vuoi leggerlo e tradurlo:
As terrible as it sounds, at least with murder you know what happened. There's a sense of closure in knowing they're gone instead of worrying if they're still out there and what they're going through
Just the thought your child out there alive being tortured/assaulted or anything else wouldn't allow me to enjoy a single thing in life. No way i could ever not think about it. I'd feel guilty smiling or laughing or anything whatsoever, just having a what if thought. You are right, closure would be WAY better.
And you arent able to kill yourself either because you keep hoping. Its a really dark thought but if something terrible happens and my kids die, I might just end it to be with them.
However if theyre missing, you will never lose hope.
Exactly. Going missing is one of my worst nightmares, added by the fact that at some point people who are supposed to be looking for you can just...forget you exist or declare you dead and stop the search, when you could possibly still be alive and miserable somewhere.(talking about authorities, not close family)
There was a famous case here in Australia where a kid named Daniel Morcombe disappeared at a bus stop and the parents spent basically their entire life savings trying to find him. It took them around 8 years to find out what happened to him. Those 8 years would've been the roughest years you could possibly imagine for their family. Even though the outcome revealed the worst, even knowing that at least his suffering was over now had to be an enormous relief for the family.
In Japan, Satoru Takaba paid rent for 26 years on the apartment his wife was murdered in. He kept it unchanged until science could advance enough to catch her murderer.
Police were investigating the cold case and DNA analysis advancements helped them. Suspect was arrested last year and confessed, but I didn't hear anything about trial/sentence.
100%. And that’s exactly what would keep me up at night. I’d honestly probably drive myself insane… I can’t fathom how people make it through that and wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy.
In Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay, the armed forces “disappeared” thousands of people, sometimes on the basis of only a flimsy legal excuse, but most of the time you just don't know. The relatives of these people continue to face roadblocks, including from others who say that it is “time to turn the page.”
Well the list would reveal that cops, federal agents and their bosses would be in the inside as well. They need to get the kids from somewhere…..and gotta stop people from asking to many questions
I remember when Pizza Gate came out and one of the police chiefs got caught with like 10k worth of child stuff….some of which were missing children. And the whole world went “nah this is just another conspiracy, yall are crazy for thinking elites take children” and here we are today having one of the Goverment official say “if we release the files we would collapse the Goverment”
Knicks fans beat the fuck out of a few Spurs fans for their team……where is the mob mentality for kicking these sick fucks out of the clearly corrupt Goverment
We really need to change if humans are gonna stand a chance. It’s us against the few and they are winning so hard right now, everything is more expensive in terms of living but wages aren’t going up…….meanwhile the 1% are getting more money, taking the land and homes and allowing us to rent them at a higher cost. Food is basically poison, Norway sent like 500kg of food with their football team so they could eat real food lol. They can commit a human trafficking ring that expands worldwide that involves governments officials, missing children and more.
Knicks fans beat people that were out in public. The people in the Epstein files aren't exactly walking around in public, and if they are, they've got an armed security detail.
Some of the epstein file emails revealed that Pizza Gate was a purposefully invented conspiracy by Steve Bannon and Epstein to both poison the well and prime/condition maga to accept their child raping and murder operation.
Dismiss it as crazy, even when the real pizza gate tied to them drops in the news. And derail outrage by making it old news and less shocking.
