Sounds of Freedom is bittersweet for those of us who also resonate with what takes place within this remarkable movie of truth
I attended July 5th, 2023. I was surprised how difficult it was watch, sit though due to my own sexual abuse from ages 6- 16yrs old
By " those in authority positions "= teachers, police officers, peers, employees of Boys Club of America, both Fe/male perps. All walks of life and hierarchy of society.
My step brother and I attended. He knows of my abuse. I could have really lost it a handful of times during the movie.
Hits way to close to home He kept asking... " Are you going to be able to watch this movie ?"
I realize that many do not make it past their early 20's from sexual abuse.
I will be be 56 years old next week...
In my 40's I found out from one of my older brothers that he, and my oldest brother were also targeted by these same pedo's.
We were damaged goods in a way.. Father was a big time alcoholic Mother, passive aggressive codependent to my father due to her own abuse.
Never felt safe in my home growing up.
After all this...
Please share, discuss as much as possible to shed as much mighty, LIGHT upon this gross misjustice.
At work I had the opportunity to share with a fellow co worker about the movie .. A extreme sanitized, generic version of my abuse.
She had tears in her eyes. Initially she asked why I did not report it to any proper authorities...
Cause a handful " authorities " were evil, hardly proper in their role to serve, protect, and even save lives ie police and firemen that were my abusers.
God's children are not for sale or to be abused.
That stuff sticks with you for life and infects every decision you make.
That is one thing that I wonder about. How do they treat the children after rescue?
It must take years to be able to even function after that.
In Bismarck North Dakota we literally just had this happen. It was discovered a Bismarck police chaplain was trying to lure kids from various places around town. THIS was the guy that they called for sexual abuse victims. He was discovered on a bunch of adult websites including video of him masturbating, and being listed on various BDSM websites. No one in our local government did anything and it wasn't mentioned in local media. Shit is so fucked up in the government and law enforcement.
Also, forgot to mention that our local child abuse shelters sport pedo symbolism in their marketing. Fucking disgusting.
Investigative data from Arizona and California shows that nearly all the sheriffs are either on the payroll or being blackmailed by Sinaloa drug/trafficking cartel. These sheriffs are complicit in or turning a blind eye to the trafficking coming from both Child Protective Services (CPS) and to/fro across the Mexican border.
Santa Clara, CA county sheriff forced to resign over corruption charges in 2022, but she apparently was "allegedly" also involved in covering up crimes being committed by Silicon Valley elites including pedophilia, torture, and murder at the behest of the Sinaloa cartel (supplier), State of California Corporation (distributor), and Silicon Valley Billionaires (customers). 10-31-22 https://www.mercurynews.com/2022/10/31/breaking-santa-clara-county-sheriff-laurie-smith-resigns-from-office-amid-ongoing-corruption-trial/
This is the organization that controls most of Mexico and most of the Southwest United States: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinaloa_Cartel ; Yes, CA, AZ, NV, UT, NM appear to be fully controlled by a foreign criminal gang. CA appears to be split (jointly controlled) between the CCP and Sinaloa cartel via some coordinated activity. Newsom is an agent of the CCP, and per NM, "Breaking Bad" is a documentary, not fiction.
Tim talks about this in his podcast In The Trenches. They provide a ton of after care for these kids.
It's been proven that the gospel appeals to these as they know how lost they feel.
Fellow Patriots...
Thank you for your collective wisdom, encouragement and realization that moving past this abuse is difficult at best.
I'm grateful for my sober way of living. I thought my choice to numb out, etc was from my father's alcoholic related abuse ie emotional, and physical.
I had to dig deeper.
Many do not want to embrace therapy cause one wiser therapist shared with me, " the solution of your pain is THE PAIN "...
Meaning one MUST have proper means to back to these experiences and " reset " the entire emotional responses, triggers, trauma responses.
It is possible but extremely, extremely draining
Emotionally
Physically
Intellectually
And the hardest for myself
Spiritually
Spiritually to fully wrap ones around such heinous, evil, debauchery actually exists in this world.
My perps will be held accountable in the next life. Many will have numerous stones tired around their necks as they sink further and further into the abyss ' of hell and damnation.
The brother/ sister Hood here is remarkable.
I look forward to the day when this great nation realizes what each individual can truly do for others.
God Bless you fellow beloved Patriots.
Not that you have the answer, but my question is, kids are being saved from the grips of this evil. But then what? The physical saved part is only the beginning. I don't mean to say the "easy" part, but as we know, the mind is stronger than the body. These kids will need help all of their lives. This is beyond the capabilities of even the most loving families.
OUR has an after care facility in Arizona, and many other places. But yes, this is difficult, because of Stockholm syndrome, and some people never really make it out because once they get free from everything, they tend to go back to that lifestyle because that’s how they feel safe. It is very very sad.
I have a friend that used to work for a human trafficking aftercare program, she said it was very difficult to help the older girls who’ve already been trafficked. They would receive Amazon packages to the care home, but none of them have money. They would still continue to sell them selves online, because that was OK? So it’s OK to sell your body if you’re not being touched? I’m not sure how it all works, but… This is an anecdotal story.
I'm sorry to hear you went through this.
Have you tried:
Maybe EMDR and tapping to release the pain from the body and hypnosis to reset behaviors?
Hello Fellow Patriot,
I deeply appreciate your comment to offer different modalities of healing.
Yes I am utilizing EMDR...
It's amazing, trippy, extremely difficult and a blessing all at the same time.
This is the " reset " that I need to properly deal with my years of trauma, and betrayal.
Simply being able to talk about it is a significant milestone of healing. I'm glad your co-worker was able to listen. Congratulations on overcoming everything so far. Damaged goods may be true as a part of your past; it needn't be a part of your present. It seems like you are exercising those lingering scars. Truth, sunlight are powerful healers. Thanks for sharing. God bless.
I’m so sorry, fren. The anguish is real, I hear you. I think this is why most kids or adults don’t come forward, at least not for decades. As a child, you don’t think anyone will believe you and the abuser has put the fear in you of repercussions/harm or even death if you tell anyone. That’s almost always the case. And a lot of adults carry that fear of not belong believed and possible repercussions a long way into adulthood. Decades. I know a lot about the topic of the systemic abuse in the Catholic Church. It’s the same scenario- nobody could believe a priest, a rep of God, could harm a child. I’m so grateful for this film.
I have a shared interest in this movie. I too am a sexual abuse survivor, but I can't bring myself to watching the movie in a public place just yet. It hits too close to home for me. Brings back memories I'd rather not remember. The worst part about my experiences is that, to this day, my parents dont believe me. They say if it had happened, I would've or should've said something to them. But, I can tell you, when you're a 6-8 yr old child and the abuser(s) threaten your life, you stay quiet. I'm about to be 47 in a couple weeks, and it's only been within the last few yrs that I've been comfortable enough to get v n talk about it.
I'm sorry for what you want thru fellow Patriot.
Your words, wounds are extremely similar to my own abuse.
My mother could not wrap her head around that I would not say anything to her or my father. More so to her than my father
My father was checked out in his alcoholic related stupor most of the time
Advised them both I never felt safe to share what was going on. They finally came to terms with the abuse
If I may share some things I've done to help facilitate my own healing...
It's beyond mortal comprehension with most adults ie parents that ANYTYPE of harm that befalls their children that they would not act, to help defend their children.
Your own healing is YOUR OWN. At this time, or when your ready start the healing process...
Of course you have support of family, parents etc would be beneficial, you my friend do not need them or that at this time.
Please focus on healing YOU.
My father was a drugged up alcoholic for close to 50 yrs. He was able to obtain sobriety the last 3 years of his life.
I had my beloved Poppa back.
Each person, each loved one in our lives has agency which is a double edged sword at times, cause when one chooses well ones agency blesses others, when they opt to embrace incorrect choices their agency can and does affect others.
We're only responsible for our own actions, our choices to heal. One cannot force or bring someone to change unless THEY CHOSE to.
Please move forward with your healing so these perps, pedo's no longer have control over your emotional state.
Sending you a huge loved filled hug.
You got this.
You're not alone anon. I'm a few yrs younger and similar story. Abused at the same age range by extended family. It shapes your life, and yet here we are. I think for the better, at least from a self perspective. I pray the same to you fren.
Proud of you frog. 🐸
This
F'n HUMBLED
Thank you for sharing. It is a hard movie for anyone to watch. You are here for a reason. Just finding your way to this site means something, just know that.
I’m sorry about what happened to you. I pray that the Lord Jesus Christ is comforting you, and that you feel loved by him.
There are so many of us here, who have been abused. Out of the 13 women in my women’s Bible study, at least five I know for sure have been abused as well.
This isn’t just human trafficking, it’s incest, it’s families, it’s a disease. It needs to be stopped. The more people who face up to their own abuse, are able to protect their own children and other family members, instead of hiding their head in the sand.
Thank you for being brave and sharing your story!

House of GOD?
Only the beginning.
Those who you are taught to trust the most….
Expect MANY MANY MANY similar reports to surface from around the world.
IT GOES A LOT DEEPER.
Connected.
The choice to know will be yours.
Q
neither you or any child that has been abused is damaged goods. you all are children of the almighty God. those abusers may have hurt your physical body but your soul belongs to God. He can heal anything. God bless you for what was done to you.
I do understand trauma can be carried on decades after the act of violence, but it is up to you and God to clear your passage for a great future, do not let satan steal that. satan comes to steal and destroy. Jesus took that authority away from him at the cross and gave it back to us to fight satan with the might sword of the Lord.
I'm glad you (I'm assuming) broke the cycle. It's so damaging that most perps are also victims. Usually in their childhood. Glad you made it out intact and haven't let it define you as powerless. I believe you, anyone in your position, should share your power with those who have less, or none.
That sentiment is not shared by everyone here I found out, when that sentence about sharing power was down voted. Curious, don't you think? Anyway, keep being good. This world needs you and those like you.
Thank you for sharing your story. It's never easy. Prayers to you for continued strength! Also a survivor with a similar family dynamic and age ... it messed me up for decades, but I am still here.
This is the only reason I haven't gone to seen it yet. I'm not sure I can make it through at all. This probably should be a 'sit on the couch with a box of tissues while i'm all alone' movie for this gal.
Oor, because it's not a contest or a virtue to see a movie, don't feel like you have to or you are somehow failing morally. You are aware and already trying to help powerless people have a voice. You don't have to hurt yourself to prove anything to anyone.
I appreciate that. I was feeling a little guilty.
You also make a good point because I have talked about this movie a lot. Some of the people who have ignored me are now paying attention.... Hopefully helping to give the powerless a voice.
I was very worried thaf I would not be able to make it through the movie because I am so empathetic and love children, but I personally feel the makers took care not to make the move emotionally painful for those of us with tender hearts. I only teared up a few times.
#LetsJessieTalk and her not really helpful as victims themselves https://youtu.be/fkRjcShlKk0
u/Elon1830, the amount of courage you displayed by sharing your story is immense!
Thank you for your personal testimony and for sharing the movie with others. Every little ripple will combine to become an unstoppable tsunami of retribution for abusers, and your bravery is helping with that. You are to be commended.
Thank you.
(((Big hugs))). I am sorry for your pain.
We're not damaged goods... We're ourselves + digital warriors.
God bless you OP, you are not alone.
Just went with my wife. It was packed. We had to sit at the very front because all the other seats were taken. No one said a word after the movie ended.
It makes me sad to read your story Elon1830. Even sadder that there was no help. Makes you wonder why anyone would be sexually attracted to an innocent child and how we add a society are starting to move to acceptance of child grooming in different forms.
