Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

I have a simpler theory. He got arrested and journalists checked his socials when trying to write a story. He talked about this very subject online. Hey, look! No sinister motives needed1
Your version has journalists cross checking a list, trying their very best to discredit people involved in exposing the truth. That's a sign that you're not coming at this with clear thinking.
You are right, mainstream media definitely isn't stretching the title and article my mistake they are completely unbiased and there is no issue with child trafficking.
Child trafficking happens predominantly via someone the child already knows (family or family-adjacent). It's very rarely in the form that this film projects with random people snatching children off the street. The film depicts an almost fictional version of the issue. This is regardless of whatever good intent the backers may have had. But you have revealed yourself to be deeply enmeshed in your perception of the issue and I'm replying to point this out to others rather than to you.
