Finally it's okay to say pedophile out loud thanks to Jeffrey Epstein. And finally, mainstream media is referring to Melting Arctic ice without questioning whether the planet is heating.
For me this is a special experience, because in 2007 I started City of Angels Blog as one of the victims of pedophile priests, and about 5 years later I had the pleasant- sort of- experience of hearing comedians everywhere make jokes about pedophile priests and everyone in the audience getting it. Because it was no longer a question whether it happened or not, people like me telling our stories and getting the information into the mainstream helped to get people past the shock to where they could accept and admit it happened.Now As Trump reaches out to grab Greenland by its mushy melting ice, the same thing is happening for me with global warming,
When I started Heating Planet blog last September, there were still people saying out loud that climate change was a hoax, including the president himself. Now as you read or hear stories about his expansionism into Greenland, the pundits just say things like “where the ice is melting and new sea routes are opening” or “as the Arctic heats, the region is becoming more strategic.”
I swear when I started heating Planet blog four months ago, no one was saying that; they were still questioning out loud that global warming and climate change were real in the mainstream American media last September. And I swear when I first started City of Angels blog in 2007 about the priests, most people didn't believe the victims / survivors as we were coming forward.
This is very gratifying for me, because I feel like in a small way one little old lady was a laptop blogging was able to push the narrative forward into areas that it wasn't going to go into otherwise.
I knew the power of a Blog because in the 1970s when I was in college I was a member of the Austin video users council, a futurists club, and we talked about the upcoming interconnectedness, we didn't know it was going to be called the internet we didn't know it was going to happen with computers. In the 1970s there were lots of headlines saying “in the future you will talk to your TV set” in predictions of the inevitable connectedness that was coming as humans developed telemetry.
I'm one of the 100,000 people who came forward in the early 2000s that we were molested by a Catholic priest decades ago, and since I'm a journalist and I could see how the media and Justice departments and everyone in religion management was going along with covering up these crimes to save the church, I felt like God told me to start City of Angels blog back in 2007 where I ended up covering the 660 cases against the LA Archdiocese. Then I had that weird experience that I wrote about in my online book, USA sided with pedophile priests and soon after the nation fell, where every time I told somebody I was a pedophile Priest Victim and as a journalist I was writing about the crimes, they would remove me from their Auto dial they would block me on facebook, they would come right up to me in person and say that never happened. Honest in 2012, a guy in the building where I lived in Lancaster before moving to Tahoe came right out and said to me “That never happened” when I mentioned I was writing about the pedophile priest crimes. My online book that needs to be made into a true crime series is about how-
At the same time people were starting to believe in right wing media and Donald Trump they were also siding with Catholic Bishops thinking the pedophile priest victims were just out to destroy the church which is ridiculous I don't give a fuck about the church.
So I went silent. I didn't tell people I was a pedophile priest victim anymore, and I didn't tell new friends about my blogs at City of Angels 3 to 12 where many of those crimes are documented. I became ashamed of my own work because whenever I brought it up with someone, I would have this strange experience.
I got bullied out of the building where I was living outside Chicago in 2011 once people knew I was filing a lawsuit against their archdiocese. And I got bullied in South Lake Tahoe in 2018 when I told one neighbor about my blog, and the entire population of the building where I live turned on me, it was horrible.
I don't think that would happen anymore now that Jeffrey Epstein's crimes have been in the news for so long so in a weird way I'm grateful for that.
Thanks to all this media coverage of Epstein, people have become inured to the word pedophile and the horrible imagery it brings into your head- enough so they can actually grok and accept that the crime really does happen.
It's pretty much the same population who watch Fox News and vote for Donald Trump who thought that the pedophile priest victims were making up their stories so we could file lawsuits, and the WHOLE WORLD needs them to Snap Out Of Their Trance; and yes I did file a lawsuit in Illinois, my final check was 11,000 and change. I filed so that my perpetrator priest Thomas Barry Horne would end up in the database that was all I wanted and all I got.
Thanks to Jeffrey Epstein, people aren't shocked at the idea anymore; all of a sudden I can say yes I'm a pedophile Priest Victim and not have to move to escape the repercussions. And thanks to Trump grabbing Greenland by the Permafrost, no one can call climate change a hoax anymore.
