Independent experts appointed by human rights council speak of ‘grave’ nature regarding scale of atrocities against women and girls

Millions of files related to the convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein suggest the existence of a “global criminal enterprise” that carried out acts meeting the legal threshold of crimes against humanity, a panel of independent experts appointed by the United Nations human rights council has said.

The experts said crimes outlined in documents released by the US justice department were committed against a backdrop of supremacist beliefs, racism, corruption and extreme misogyny. The crimes, they said, showed a commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls.

“So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character, and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls, that a number of them may reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity,” they said in a statement.

    “global criminal enterprise”

    This is the kind of stuff that causes people to believe Qanon.

    In this post, I’m not blaming Q or the people who believed it. I’m blaming the actual cabal of pedophiles because their existence is enough to make conspiracy theories like Q seem credible.

    It turns out the hippies were right; people really are being herded like animals.

      Epstein met Moot(4chan owner) and drove him home, he created the /pol/ board on 4 chan the same day. A couple years later Q anon would be created on that board.

      It’s the strategy the UFO guys use of mixing ridiculous bullshit with the truth so if anything leaks it sounds like that half ridiculous load of shit you proved was fake to the public.

          I’ll take the opposite tack from the other guy, Bob Lazar comes off as a skilled liar, and aliens and time travelers require actual evidence.

          The US government did fake 90% of the UFO movement.

          Most of the fucked up story is told here; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8F1HnpeQTo

          That’s a Behind the Bastards episode, Part One: How The U.S. Government Used Aliens To Destroy a Man’s Mind.

          The actual truth is more fucked up than the made up conspiracies, but also more boring. Weapons and Weapon Systems. That’s it. Bad ideas and worse coverups.

            I used to think the giant psyop angle made more sense. It doesn’t. It explains a bunch of stupid abductions and military reports. Then you look at the Russian reports of incidents at nuclear facilities and suddenly they’re copying the US’s play book. Then there’s the UK, China and Israel… Feds installed a noise floor of bullshit but it doesn’t explain everything away. It’s a nice safe conspiracy that feels like it could explain everything but does not.

    How TF could having a bunch of girls’ corpses buried “out back” POSSIBLY “not” be in the crimes-against-humanity category?!

    “It’s time for a crusade.” goes the meme?

    ( that utterly-perfect image of the guy pushing his glasses on … with the arms going through the helmet’s eye-holes… : )

    THIS IS LIKE THE UN’S SITTING-OUT THE POLICING-RESPONSIBILITY DURING THE RWANDAN HOLOCAUST.

    Idiocy.
