SAVE THE CHILDREN.
I am a victim of child abuse. Never sexual, but violence and torture and all kinds of psych abuse and threats.
THIS IS PERSONAL FOR ME.
I can't even begin to imagine the kind of horrors visited upon the victims of child sex trafficking, but I think I get it on some fundamental level. I know what it's like to feel betrayed by the grown-ups. To feel like no matter what authority figure you went to, your teacher, the cops, your family-they'd just send you straight back to hell. To lose faith, at an early age, in the idea that people are even good at heart. To feel so horrible all the time that you actually dissociate and stop feeling like real life exists. To grow jealous of the kids who still had their innocence. To feel lied-to every time a story on TV had a happy ending. To be gaslit and made to feel that the abuse is your fault. To feel trapped in an inescapable nightmare. The absolute and primal terror of being physically overwhelmed by an adult and in mortal fear.
These kids must feel that way up to eleven. They have been let-down and betrayed on an indescribable level.
All across this country, every day, there is absolute horror occurring only feet away from where we live and dwell. Far worse than I ever experienced. The perpetrators of these horrific acts hide behind closed doors, behind courts and social services workers who shield them, behind their good public images, and behind each other.
THIS IS FUCKING UNACCEPTABLE.
That twisting rot in my eyes and the pit of my stomach, the kind that makes you lurch awake screaming. It's everywhere. Hundreds of thousands of children every year just here. Little hells hidden from prying eyes. Atrocities. The kind of acts that would drive you into homicidal rage if you saw them happening in-person. UNACCEPTABLE EVIL. THE KIND THAT HAS NO RIGHT TO EXIST. That should make you want to vomit.
To all of my fellow Anons, thank you for fighting so doggedly for this. It gives me tremendous hope in a place it was sorely missing to know that so many people give a crap.
But to any abusers in here? Any of our adversaries on the other side of this issue? Any pedovores or their goons? Be very fucking afraid. Live in mortal terror. Savor every heartbeat as though it could be your last. You have no idea how much we hate you or what sadistic thoughts pass through our minds when we picture your faces.
You have no idea how personal this is for some of us. There are mothers and fathers here who only need to picture their own children in order to lose all mercy towards you. Those same mothers and fathers in law enforcement and our military. For me, being here is a way of keeping a promise I made to myself almost 20 years ago, battered and beaten and whimpering in a puddle of my own piss. Threats and mockery won't work against something like that.
To every child out there who is being abused: We're coming. The cavalry is here and we're going to set things right again, we promise. But to enemy as well…
We're coming.And we are going to make such a loud statement and a terrible example with your downfall that people centuries from now will shudder to imitate you out of pure, primal, mortal fucking terror.
SAVE THE CHILDREN.
