“In cases of organized and multi-perpetrator abuse when the abuse occurs in the context of rituals and ceremonies, some elements of the experience may have been staged specifically with the intention of encouraging the disbelief of others if the victim were to report the crime. For example, someone reporting such a crime may mention that the devil was present, or that someone well-known was there, or that acts of magic were performed. These were tricks and deceptions by the abusers-often experienced by the victims after being given medication or hallucinogenic drugs - that render the account unbelievable, make the witness sound unreliable, and protect the perpetrators.

“Choose to use Social Media or a Cellphone with caution. Anything you send, say or post can be used against you. Nowadays people are recording videos , conversations and screen grabbing messages that you send to them. People are getting paid to be vile or mean. People are paid to say things they don’t believe in. People want to trend so badly. They will say anything to provoke you or to get engagement. Not everything is true. Even the news media are behind paywall or journalist are paid to be influencers.
Don’t be too quickly to believe or to jump into conclusion.
Don’t be too quickly to takes sides. Question everything that is suspicious.
Think for a second. Sometimes they tell you things because they know you are so gullible you will believe them.”
― De philosopher DJ Kyos
