“Doctor For Billionaire Sex Slave Ring NXIVM, Charged for Conducting Horrific Human Experiments”
Pretty horrifying stuff.
We always like to comfort ourselves with naive notions such as the Nazis or the Klu Klux Klan or other twisted organizations are the locus of human depravity.
And if they are just defeated or eliminated, society can go back to normality.
But, no, depravity is a quality found here and there throughout the entire human population.
Of course, I'll just add that the kind of stuff done on an official-government level by the United States in Vietnam, Cambodia, Somalia, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and a whole lot of other places is exactly of the same nature, as is the grisly work of Israel in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and other places.
And I could not have imagined as a young man, growing up in America, a time coming when the United States would have an entire industry in the grisly work of extrajudicial killing, much like the old military junta in Argentina which used to make people disappear off the streets regularly. No charges, no trial, no rights - just a name on a "Kill List" and incineration by Hellfire missile.
Of course, all the actual American targets are completely legally innocent, but the teams of killers at computer screens also frequently incinerate others, too, the kind of bystanders the Pentagon likes to label “collateral damage.”
One can get a remarkable perspective on the journey America has traveled by comparing the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution to a copy of a Kill List.
It's been a remarkable trip, from idealistic aspirations about liberty and rights, straight to hell.
