Hope this is allowed! I've browsed on this site for a while, even had another username where I engaged in some fairly civil debates with other users before I was banned due to not being a Q follower.
Interested in having a friendly discussion with anyone who's up for it!
A bit about me:
I'm a mechanical engineer working in product marketing I live in a major city, Chicago, and have pretty much only voted democrat I am a homeowner I have followed conspiracies for a while based solely on my own curiosity, and by and large found that a lot of the major ones (pizzagate, Q) don't make a ton of sense, but I'm not here to argue that. I think we're just gonna have different opinions on it.
All said, happy to have a casual AMA! Not interested in flamebaiting or arguing
What do you think pizzagate is?
So primarily I'm going by the early iterations of it, meaning the whole deal with comet ping pong and HRC sacrificing kids and spirit cooking having to do with satanic rituals. All of that, IMO, is hot garbage baloney
In some corners it appears to just be a catch all word for "pedophelia exists."
Now, I'm sure there are pedophile rings in elite super rich/super powerful circles. That much is undeniable. But pizzagate literally started from a vague email and a pizza restaurant. It only harms the cause to hunt actual child trafficking victims.
So, if "pizzagate" is just the word for hunting elite pedo rings, you need to pick a different word for it.
Yeah its really more to do with elite pedo rings, and of course that original story got shilled the fuck out, msm misrepresents it and lies about it all the time. If you actually care about learning about elite pedo rings / cabal in general theres a doc/movie that released a while ago. I consider it pretty good. Its called out of shadows and they have it on their site, outofshadows.org i think it is.
I'll check it out!
But if people are looking to distance themselves from it, the mods need to do a better job of culling the kind of baloney talk from these forums. There was a post about Patton Oswalt recently where he tweeted about being at Comet Ping Pong, which turned out to be completely falsified.
I get that your intentions of uncovering pedophilia is good, but there's too much fake shit spread on this site for people to take it seriosuly.
Media takes the parts that sound the farthest from reality, add a bit more crazy to them and push that concoction of theirs as the conspiracy that they then debunk.
It worked on you and most people. Sounds crazy, didn't look into it much.
Do you still call it pizzagate?
No, not anything specific. I would hear headlines of a pizza related handkerchief or the surveliance video outside Comet Ping Pong or the frazzledrip video and exercised some critical though process on all of these different snippets.
Essentially, it comes down to the fact that all of the speculations don't really add up to anything meaningful, and the fact that no proof of these events taking place (such as witnesses, videos, or even actual missing children linked to Comet Ping Pong or any other pizza establishment) as been prevented leads me to believe it's just rumors.
