Yeah I do believe children/people are trafficked at an alarming rate, but I wonder about this. I think most people would be busting open the containers if they heard children inside.

Yeah, that's a good question.

Some people might think it is implausible that they wouldn't check. This kind of touches on the common objection to most conspiracy theories: "Do you even realize how many people they would have to get to lie about this?"

I want to think about the plausibility of the claim that they aren't checking. And now I am thinking about unions and the value that these jobs would have for any given worker. Is it plausible that one of the higher-ups makes it clear that you 'don't ask, don't tell' if you want to keep your job? And is it also plausible that this is sufficient, not only to control worker behavior, but to also prevent them from talking about it (for the most part)? Perhaps combined with the 'plausible deniability' that the legacy media has created with the powerful rhetoric behind 'conspiracy theory', even if a few do talk, few people are going to listen to them. When something seems this wild, people want to believe that's because it is wild.

It's like, if you divide a population in terms of opposite extremes (like we are now), it permits you to get away with extremes on both ends. Why? Because the conflict becomes sublimated to the population to fight it out as to whether the claim is real. 50% won't believe it. So, if you're the person in charge, you've now got two paradigms to carry out extremes. The pizzagate thing has become 'an extreme' of the Right. So now you can actually just do that extreme pizzagate shit because the problem space no longer has anything to do with the action itself; it is sublimated to a debate in culture as to whether this category is even real. If the population can't diagnose the problem, they can't do anything about it.

The Left wants to diagnose problems (traditionally anyway) that the Right prohibits being diagnosed. The Right wants to diagnose problems (" ") that the Left prohibits being diagnosed. The populace never gets to diagnose any problem in a holistic way, so nothing gets done. Yet, the problems are there. It's like knowing you have a disease that starts in your hands. The left hand doesn't register because the right covers it and vice versa. They keep on playing that game of hand-over-hand while the disease is working its way to the heart. The child trafficking issue has become 'pizzagate', and pizzagate has become 'Right wing'. You can't diagnose it now. It's just satanic panic. Or it's just racism and class warfare (the culprits are rich white guys exploiting non-whites from the developing world). Or the problem is just a particular group of eccentric celebrities. Or the problem is a one-off and you can't infer causation from correlation. Let's go grab a Starbucks now.

According to the video they did open them.

I remember a Holocaust joke about Jews who were hiding from nazis, and they had to suffocate their infants in order to keep them from crying and giving away their location.
HILARIOUS!
