from Revolver News:
For years, the idea that powerful, well-connected elites might be involved in organized child exploitation was treated like something only Q-kooks talked about. And anybody who brought it up was promptly mocked, sidelined, or lumped in with the most unserious corners of the internet. The message was simple: respectable people don’t do things like that, and anyone who says otherwise is a dangerous “conspiracy theorist.”

The problem is, real cases keep getting in the way of that narrative.
What’s changed is that these stories don’t disappear anymore. The internet makes it a lot harder for the media and the power players involved to quietly move on and hope everybody forgets. Now, when these horrific cases surface, they stick, spread, and force attention in a way that didn’t exist ten or twenty years ago.
That doesn’t mean every claim floating around online was true, but it does mean the automatic reflex to dismiss uncomfortable allegations against elites has worn out its welcome.
That brings us to the most recent case that proves those “Q-kooks” were actually onto something.
Australian authorities announced the dismantling of a child exploitation network operating out of the Sydney area. This wasn’t framed as a lone offender or an isolated online incident. Police described it as an organized group operating internationally, using encrypted platforms, and trafficking some of the most disturbing material imaginable.
John Schindler, who writes under the name 20Committee on his Substack Top Secret Umbra, is a former intelligence officer. He’s been covering the Sydney case, and then some, and brings some very interesting insight to it, along with a sober take on Pizzagate. He’s not infallible, but he’s also not some internet fabulist. He’s coming at this from a long career inside the intelligence world, not conspiracy culture, and he has a way of helping readers rethink things they thought were settled.
Last week brought news of a shocking series of arrests in Australia. New South Wales Police announced the break-up of a Sydney-area gang devoted to the most odious of crimes, the sexual exploitation of children. Four men, ranging in age from 26 to 46, were taken into custody and are being held without bail, given the terrible nature of their alleged misdeeds.
This pedophile gang employed encrypted online apps to circulate images of sexually exploited and abused children internationally. Their victims included babies. The 26-year-old, identified as the independent journalist (and Lady Gaga superfan) Landon Germanotta-Mills, is considered the ringleader by detectives, therefore is facing a raft of charges, including the possession and distribution of child abuse material and bestiality material. One of the men, 42-year-old Mark Sendecky, a swim coach, was arrested in 2021 for possessing some 1200 sexual images of boys, some as young as five. Sendecky told the court four years ago, pleading for mercy to dodge a long prison sentence, that he knew he’d “got a serious problem that I need to fix.” Which he clearly did not.
