on the contrary, if i was podesta's son i'd be working on the tell-all book to see how much i could squeeze out of oprah's audience, and then afterwards i would change my name and return to obscurity. i mean to suggest that the ''where there's smoke there's fire'' is a good rule of thumb in these scandals, so maybe i agree with you more than you realize.You must be John Podesta's son or something. No rational person would be this eager to shut down an investigation before it even began.you're right, but there's a rationality deficit to overcome here. it's more about the reactions to the news. for example, the ceo of reddit is apparently suffering a nervous breakdown or something, paranoid guilty conscience. really, of all the creepy shit on reddit, the pizzagate is what fingernails his chalkboard? going to follow podesta's example, come out and tell everyone at the party the show is over they should all just go home... no, that's not happening.Dude...nobody has been even indicted on the code words - much less convicted. All rational people are saying is that based on information provided by people in that underworld, this deserves further investigation. What is wrong with that? Unless of course one has something to hide or one is a partisan hack trying to protect those with something to hide.Another good question might be: why is it so easy for some people to reject it? In the face of some pretty bizarre stuff that deserves additional questions, why are some people so eager to dismiss all of it?maybe the right question should ask why is it so easy for some people to believe it? if you're a politician and so many people just assume you're some kind of pervert, then how many does it take to insist until you are made a pervert? podesta just looks like whatever a pedophile looks like now. there's no going back.
because it looks like these perverts are doing things at a pace and in numbers that are just too mind boggling, consuming one child after another like a drug, it's far fetched to anyone who can't fathom it happening even more than once. also, little code words in emails... there needs to be eyewitness testimony or something more concrete, otherwise who is to say what means what anymore after every possible connotations and denotations have been exhausted?
There is no harm whatsoever in investigating this further. If it determines no wrong doing, great. But if it uncovers a disturbing sex slave ring, then we need to get those exploited free and those responsible in prison.
