  • Of age and consenting does not equal willingness or a lack of explorationexploitation. There was a victim who has done some interviews, she was of age, and one could argue she did consent. But she was heavily pressured. She found herself being brought to the island by a girl she was on a modeling shoot with. I can’t remember all of the details but essentially she was made to feel like participation was expected and everyone just did it. Eventually this led to a relationship where she was trafficked to other men.

    Hearing her speak, she sounded like she felt obligated. And when she didn’t return calls or other communications, they would escalate to harassment levels of contact.

    The women who were of age were still kids. I think about where I was at 25, I didn’t know shit. An 18 y/o newly on her own, in a place she’s never been, without close friends or family, could easily be exploited.









  • Probably yes.

    I used to work for another office store that has since been absorbed into this one. There was an extreme white supremacist who ran a “church” in the area. My first manager told him we would not make his copies but he could use the self-serve machines. A few of my coworkers did not appreciate this stance and may have taunted him a bit.

    A new manager came in and asked him why he was using the self-serve and invited him to use our copy services. Most of the department walked out that day.

    The materials were what amounted to white supremacy lightly vailed as religion.



  • 200M spent on alligator Auschwitz and an estimated 450M annual operating cost.

    Some googling tells me that an apartment building can cost about 200k/unit (I suspect it could be less). That’s 1000 units. And then imagine what would happen if you put that yearly operating cost into healthcare and other social programs.

    They want to build 1000 concentration camps. Florida is working on their second. Texas has one. Other states will certainly follow.

    Maybe Newsom should be building homes instead of division.
