Read the full piece at ThroughtheStatic.org Do you remember the Disney character figurine of Alice in Wonderland straddling Little Red Riding Hood? TtS previously posted it to our website and social media accounts, but it is a small and offputting decor item that was left on a wooden counter in a bedroom at Jeffrey Epstein’s former residence. Emails from the Epstein Files show that the pedophile and sex-trafficking ring leader dressed victims up in Disney character costumes his collaborators sexually assaulted them. Did you know we're on Bluesky? If you like reading our articles, or flipping through our posts and want to learn more, it's just an easy click away. We just uploaded a new piece, so go and give us a follow and check it out! Sell your swastikkkar dafuq The Human Rights Watch recently released world report states that 72% of the globe is currently living under an autocracy, where governments are led by one ruler with total power. The U.S. is neck deep in fascism, and something I've learned since launching TtS is that Black community leaders and voices are regularly being excluded from the resistance. Let me ask you this: Do you remember the last time Seattle held a Black Lives Matter protest, outside of 2020? I asked several people that question because I was unsure, and they didn't have an answer either. Subscribe to our newsletter so you dont miss an article!
