Just one point needs to be made. I'm a Soldier in the National Guard, and I've been in for 18 years. Every year we must sit through a whole slew of annual briefings, one of which is on human trafficking. During the brief, were given information on the number of people being trafficked, the ways they're being trafficked, where they're ending up, how to spot someone who's been trafficked, etc. This is a much larger issue than the general public knows about, though I suspect that might be due to lack of attention more than anything else. My civilian employer is the hospital located a mile from my home, and I work in the ER. Our public restrooms have signs above the mirrors that offer help for human trafficking victims in English and Spanish. Note that I live in the Midwest, a few hours south of Canada. In case y'all were wondering how widespread this is. Keep your kids close. Keep your teens closer. Keep your head on a swivel, and learn how to spot people who are being trafficked. The more people know, and the more they keep an eye out, the harder it will be for the traffickers.

That is AMAZINGLY suspicious behavior, and given what we know about some of these critics, it sounds a lot like a "I think the lady doth protest too much" situation.

But to downright say something is something with no evidence is literally the exact same mentality of the Q people...the same exact mentality. So thats funny to me. I showed a friend once a fact out of a text book I fucking bought like 18 years ago and he read it and simply dismissed it. A proven fact. Some people, many people, simply refuse reality because their delusions are more comforting. When you take from them any ability to have a decent reality, they will fold into their delusion completely.

As far as what you can do to combat human trafficking, it really comes down to just taking action when you can -- "see something, say something." There's a fine line between vigilance and paranoia, but I think it's better to err on the side of caution. Too many people are quiet and just don't want to get involved, and I totally get that, I completely do. At the same time, what if it was happening to your child, or to you, and you know that someone who could have stopped it didn't? There was a story recently about a girl who got kidnapped from her home in Virginia and carried to Nevada by a man who forced her into sex work. She brought her Nintendo Switch along, and if it wasn't for a friend who saw her come online while she was missing and then told their parents, she would probably have stayed missing. All it takes is speaking up when you notice something.

"see something, say something." There's a fine line between vigilance and paranoia, but I think it's better to err on the side of caution.

Also people tend to be way more """vigilant""" protecting girls than boys.

@@MrStonedOne Crazy people certainly do crazy things. Really, though, we don't disagree -- human trafficking is bad, and it's good to prevent it. Harassing people with no evidence besides a "vibe" is also bad. Honestly, It's not hard to tell a loving father and his happy daughter apart from a child being trafficked if you have even the barest modicum of human empathy, and if you don't, maybe be self-aware about that and just don't accuse people of things without evidence. It's not hard, and there's no reason to push back against vigilance with an excuse of "maybe sometimes it might be annoying to someone."

This was at the same time the milk carton campaigns were going on, but all that stopped in the late 90s and now the modern attitude is "mind your own business". "See something, say something" is now synonymous with being a "Karen" and too many tragic events have taken place because of it. But modern society rewards the hardboiled "tough guy" cynical attitude of "too bad, so sad, sucks to be you."

California Democrats just voted no on harsher penalities for crimes against children, and also lowered the consquences of abusing a teen....that ought to tell you alot.

[@HLDMAD1CK]

@@silence6408 Yeah, sus asf ngl. One thing to note, as a person that grew up in the middle of all that and also lives here now, the amount of activity of all these alphabet letter agencies in those countries is actually quite staggering. I wouldn't be surprised if some of those people there, have ties with politicians or other prominent people here.

I thought I read something about the Honduran government not allowing the movie in the country. Is that true?

[@HLDMAD1CK]

@@rccola5167 For what it seems like, people were happy in Honduras they made that movie to help shine light on their real problems. The Honduran government also seemed exited but I can see why it'd cause controversy with the locals... Specially because SO MANY people get kidnapped out there everyday. Mind you, this movie only shines the light on about 5% of the whole problem. The whole getting kidnapped then sold as slave for the cartels or for prostitution isn't even the worst or even dark compared to some of the things that happen to those who get kidnapped. So to some people that still have close ones missing, or were affected by it, I can see it'll seem tone def or like a Hollywood cash grab. Who knows, they may even see it as white washing their problems. But honestly its all sick and twisted if you know the truth.

I wonder if that journalist that was talking about feeling uncomfortable at Sound of Freedom also reviewed Netlix's 'Cuties' That would be hilarious. Because that is the one that should have gotten people arrested.

Fun Fact: He did.

[@internetzenmaster8952]

​@@internetzenmaster8952Hmmm, interesting. Now I'm curious if he has some nasty stuff on his computer.

Great work: balanced, unbiased and to the point. Thank you!

Only someone like Shoe could review a movie as serious as this, while offering a pure reasonable take and adding humor within it that actually works. That's kinda your thing.

Forget it, dude. She already has a boyfriend and 6,000 other simps lined up in front of you 😂

Only? 😂

@@DanielSmedegaardBuus I'm not a simp, you don't even know what that means.

Yeah wtf. That isn't a simp comment.

She's sorta reasonable, but enough to reach the threshold to listen to for the duration.
