It does appear that hollywood/modeling is a major pipeline for these sorts of people - the role tech plays in this ecosystem also can't be understated.

Even with only a fraction of the 50% parsed through and understood - I can't bear the thought anymore that the money made off my back, is ultimately making somebody who strangles children after r*ping them (or his adjacent friends) richer. Even taking one moment to empathize with that level of pain and suffering - it makes ones blood boil.

If no justice is actually taken and people are not made to suffer for the barbarism - people will feel cheated and will want a way to "get back" even within the confines of capitalism via boycott. Old books, IRL activities, etc and trigger somewhat of an analog renaissance and return to local theatre even. It is downright and morally unethical to support the modern system as is.

Do you believe an analog resurgence could take place in the wake of these files?
