I know the media has “debunked” pizzagate, but isn’t there at least enough to that story to raise eyebrows?

iirc some schizo walked in and demanded to see the basement, fired a shot, and then went to jail.

The minute the Podesta files leaked there was enough to raise serious eyebrows. Any normie would have been cuffed and investigated pretty quickly. But because of who was involved, the media ran a blitz just like with the vaccines, just like with the voter fraud, just like Hunter's laptop, to say everything was "debunked" and a "Right wing conspiracy theory".

There were so many cover-ups happening around that time it was more frustrating than anything. It basically proved that the Elites are untouchable and no amount of evidence would ever result in a proper investigation, much less any kind of prosecution for those involved.

And the Podesta brothers definitely don't look like the police sketches in the Madeleine McCann disappearance

The entire reason pizzagate started was because there was an overwhelming amount of suspicious and wild shit that had no "innocent" explanation possible. It was all smoke, so there wasn't anything concrete enough to build a true theory on though.

So the conclusion was "debunked" because it might have been completely off the mark, but they never actually explained what all the horrific shit that led to the theory was in the first place and treat the debunking as absolving all of that as well.

One of the few retrospective takes about it that is fair, accurate and not hyperbolic. I remember the wikileak emails coming each night and the continual stream of weird shit they talked about.

Thanks, that’s what I thought. I remember the media dismissing it but I always felt there was a lot of smoke there

"We investigated the giant plumes of smoke and found no fires directly beneath them."

"But what about the giant plumes of smoke?"

"We said we found no fires beneath them."

"But... That's a lot of unexplained smoke."

"Conspiracy theorist!"

with people like "Dr. Pizza", who were most prominent in calling pizzagate a "chud right-wing conspiracy theory" and such, getting arrested for possession of child porn, it really does feel shifty

also funny that all of them bashed on anime and anime paraphernalia "enabling pedophilia" and what not

once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, thrice is enemy action

They were quick to slap the "conspiracy theory" label on it because they were in on it.

I temper about Podesta but not Slade Sohmer. Doesn’t surprise me considering what I’ve heard within other conspiracy theories. First I ever heard of a connection between elites and pedos was David Icke.
