I spoke with a pretty serious biochemist, and asked him about adrenochrome. He immediately confirmed that it's a real thing, but then went on to say that the synthetic substance is many times better than the "natural" substance. I asked him if he means that people are ingesting adrenochrome, but that there is no reason to harvest it from children and he confirmed.
He proceeded to describe the rather simple process by which he can create adrenochrome at will, but he makes better money in stem cells.
Please share your thoughts - if synthetic is cheaper and lower risk, why would they harvest natural?
I did consider that, but didn't have the simple elegance of your response :)
Satanism requires blood sacrifice.
This. Part of their religion. Required for their sorcery.
Also, survivors say they get aroused from sadism. Orgies follow sacrifices ... it’s a different kind of high for them.
