Just holy shit. Holy shit. Conservative conspiracy theorists always go on and on about secret societies planting subliminal pedophilic imagery in kids’ shows and it’s ridiculous because in reality you don’t need a secret society and it barely needs to be subliminal. Just wrap your abuse up as a “joke” and get people to laugh with you. The concept of sneaking adult themes into kids’ shows has never been more insidious.
Brings to mind the Paris Hilton documentary about the “troubled teen” industry, which I haven’t actually watched and cannot watch.
The troubled teen industry has a lot of crossover with foster care, at least in the US. Slave labor and abuse mills masquerading as therapeutic foster homes are unfortunately common.
They literally will kidnap—with their parents’ permission—kids from their room, in the dead of night. It’s horrifying.
