Is this real?
EDIT: Please read the whole thing. I already know about Pizzagate. This is about something different I'm dealing with. Thanks to everyone who commented or PMd me links to the various catchup posts.
Oh god. What is going on?
I've been using the internet for 14 of the 19 years I've been alive. I basically spend all my day on it. Its how I do everything. Work, studies, interactions, everything. And I've seen some shit. I mean things that even some 4channers might sometimes shy away from.
I've been abused. Harrased. Doxxed (So much so that I started using my IRL name as my username to tell people to fuck off)
Never have I ever been scarred. I've sometimes been a little disgusted and ashamed, sure. But the response with seeing such things was always 'Meh, its the internet. What can you do?'
But this is the first time I genuinely feel terrified.
I'm a liberal (but fuck SJWs). I'm not even a fraction as paranoid as the people in /r/conspiracy. I've always analyzed things. Looked at proof. Researched things. I was always the first to point out that a lot of what my circle shared online was stupid, fake, or overblown.
But this is too big to ignore. This has a lot of things that I cannot possible dismiss as a prank, or a hoax, or a delusion.
Shit.
What is going on?
Am I dreaming?
If so, someone please wake me up.
Please.

Yeah but I'm not the type of guy to go with my gut. I mean I have hunches, but they're all calculated. I'm a nerd. I research, plan, organize, test, and confirm things. I mean FFS the first time I asked out a girl I made an entire fuckin schedule and plan on how to do it. I was 14.
But this evidence. Its just too much coincidence. And if that level of coincidence existed I would be bumping into Emilia Clarke everyday. It just can't happen.

Whats the issue exactly? you didnt really make it clear which part you are confused about.
yashendra2797 | 6 points
I'm not confused. Its just incredible. This whole thing. It sounds a lot like 'lizard people' paranoia, but the more I look, the more stuff there is that is too much to be a coincidence.
Once is chance
Twice is a coincidence
A hundred times is a fuckin cover up.

Yeah, we have been saying it for 30 years. and you just now start listening? Normally i would tell a person to fuck off back to the rock they been living under but... that wont do anyone any good.

I'm 19. I'm from India. Even though I'm pretty familiar with other countries, some stuff (especially things people don't talk about) have slipped through my radar.
Plus,
I mean tell a normal person that there is a child sex ring operated and funded by politicians who distribute images publicly on Twitter.
See if anyone not drunk or smelly takes you even a little bit seriously.
But this time the evidence is actually there.
Holy shit.

The evidence has always been there. Especially with 9/11. The sad truth is that people don't even bother to look because of the terribly effective propaganda to label controversial subjects as conspiracy theory, or "lizard people territory".

I live in India. I've spent my entire life online. If a script kiddie could find my address from Orkut, how tough would it be for the government? Do you think that they don't already know what I'm doing? I could disappear at any second if it actually ever happened (which might be too paranoid for my taste). I've done nothing illegal. I haven't opened the NSFL links publicly. Best to have a record of yourself. You can't stop the signal.

Thanks mate. Would have been really helpful 5 hours ago when I collected info from a dozen sources. Sadly I somehow didn't realize that a subreddit existed.

Sorry, wasnt trying to be condescending at all. That "start here" link was buried in that rules page. Dig through that rules thread for all of the "coincidences"
yashendra2797 | 2 points
Hey, I never thought that you were being condescending. Thanks for caring mate. Text can be a bit... weird.

This is precisely how I feel as well. I've always been deeply skeptical of anything conspiracy-theory-ish. I haven't come to any definite conclusions here yet, but it is far more convincing than I'd like it to be. The possibility that I'm either totally delusional or way dumber than I thought I was is infinitely preferable to the possibility that any of this is real.

Dig in. Way too many coincidences! I thought it was crazy. I believe it

It is crazy. Doesn't mean it's not true.
We are no longer in the age of believing. We are in the age of knowing.
