Well, as much as I'd like to have faith in humanity, as a human, I won't allow my desire for something to be untrue to completely dismiss the possibility. Because something is implausible, or just so sick you don't want to believe it, doesn't mean it's impossible.
i don't want it to be true in the sense that i don't want children to be hurt, but it really wouldn't ruffle my worldview feathers if it were. if john podesta is running a child slavery ring, then fuck him, i hope he gets caught, and i hope he goes to prison forever. execute him for all i give a shit.
what dave said. i think it strains credulity from a practical standpoint. i just don't think national politicians could run a child slavery ring out of a business on connecticut avenue and get away with it for longer than ~1 day.
