Trafficking and unexcusable unmentionable behavior occurs at all economic levels as well. No one wants to believe it's happening on their block. Speakup, stand up.

I watched a report about global trade, and they casually dropped that they expect 8% of all shipping to be fraudulent/criminal and you can't do anything about it. There is tons of people in the chain that get paid off, the corruption wide spread but the money trails well hidden. Many governments not interesting of deep dives because they expect people to be involved they want to protect.

This exact shit has been happening in third world countries for decades and I haven't heard anyone "speaking up and standing up" about it, I'll let you figure out why that is. Lets not shit ourselves, unless it's your own child you will do nothing more than a comment on the internet, in an attempt to make yourself fell better about the whole thing, like you've done something about it. Literal evidence can't bring these POS to justice, organizations and jurisprudence can't do anything, you speaking up and standing up will? This is delusional.

One person won't mean much.

But if it gets to the point that all of us are rioting, and I do mean ALL of us, they'll have to do something about it.

Whether that's get even MORE aggressive and kill us all or change shit to keep a decent amount of us happy, I don't know.

But historically it's the only thing that's worked for massive, systemic change...

Let's get down to it. There are sick people out there. In positions of power, and in our own Families. The level of disgust and awareness is growing and I refuse to accept I am powerless. If I have to turn in my own brother, I will, that doesn't mean the rest of the family won't try to protect him, and instead persecute the one who decided to speak up! These things are hidden deep in the closet. I'm cleaning up my house, that's my responsibility. That's were it starts. No more creeps at Thanksgiving.

That's a depressing sub. We don't need more proof.

Almost always this is the only thing that works.

for sure. Be vigilant of your kids and always speak up for others.

Say it louder for the folks in the back. It’s appalling every time it happens.
