I've got some feedback for you on this Pizzagate thing you're doing here. Now, I know better than to assume there's anything people won't ever do, and I'm not going to bet against the existence of international human trafficking operations catering to the very wealthy. I mean, all that's a given. I saw Spotlight, too, right? Let's set aside whether there are bad guys for now. Of course there are.

But Pizzagate, for pity's sake? The cut from whole cloth, circular hysteria feedback loop that decency, Reddit and even Alex Jones now completely reject? The absurdist hype-for-its-own-sake, two-minutes-hate nonsense, blatantly emotionally manipulative appeal to primal emotion lie that somehow channers' wildest bullshit is not only absolutely true but a moral imperative for the sake of the children? The contagious mind-disease that makes Benghazi Delusions look like a minor personality tic? You've got to be trolling. Or you've been trolled.

Remember, we've set aside whether the villains that may've hurt you, or that may be hurting kids now, are real. We can assume they are, right? Can you see, though, that you've been triggered, and as much as you're concerned and tormented by this you're being cynically manipulated on a very basic level? Can you see why this is a particularly dangerous fake news story?

Because it's cruel. It exploits the worst cruelty. And like a lot of stories, it's ultimately no better than the things it's all about, right?

Now, there are facts around this and depending on how far down the rabbit hole you've gone, you may need to climb your way back up what you've put together so far. Maybe it'd be a good idea to start talking with someone like a counselor. Everyone could use some time with a therapist, right? If you want, you could PM me and we could maybe figure out a way to get that going. Meanwhile, maybe try not to look for any extra reasons to loathe these people. There're enough already, right? You tormenting yourself isn't helping any kids right now. Easy, easy...
