I mean it's odd phrasing but it could just be short hand for let's meet for an hour and eat some pizza while doing so. It could also be code for a consensual affair with an adult, smoking illegal Cuban cigars pretty much anything you might want to obfuscate. The doc doesn't present any evidence that predates this scandal that links 'pizza' as a code word for anything. Then after arbitrarily considering 'pizza' a well known code word, they instantly flip it and now it is also literally means pizza and links to a pizza parlor.
Well.. urbandictionary.com has an entry linking cheese pizza to child pornography dated 2010 and that is probably information coming from reality TV show "To Catch a Predator 2004" so.. maybe not totally arbitrarily, it is at least predating pizzagate..
There is some other stuff in those emails, though, like that strange line about playing dominos on cheese instead of pasta or about the pool party where young children are transported to as "entertainment" for the adult guests and the blog where those same children are advertised with "spend time with her online raw & uncut"....
There are harmless explanations for most if not all of it, but when a lot of "coincidences" come together, one should start asking questions.. blindly assuming the worst is wrong, but just dismissing it is equally wrong.
I have read something along the lines of "like most conspiracies about aliens and ghosts, pizzagate can't be proven false" and we should best just forget about it.
Which is completely wrong. A proper investigation should easily be able uncover whether something is going on or not. Ask them politely to explain the more cryptic emails, have an experienced CPS psychologist talk with those children, that should be enough to clear most of it up.
Seriously, for non-high profile people, even an anonymous claim of maltreatment can be enough to get you into the crosshairs of CPS and trigger an investigation, yet this warrants no reaction?
It's strange that even people who are likely to support "believe all women, even without any proof" that don't care at all for "innocent until proven guilty" are so ready to dismiss all of pizzagate completely.
Yes, there is no proof and since it is all conjecture, likely wrong. But that conjecture isn't based on nothing at all. Maybe there is no great conspiracy involving satanic cults & cannibalism, maybe there is no big pedo ring, maybe there is just a handful of children being abused by their family & close friends.. or hopefully not even that.
If it is nothing, great! But authorities/CPS should have really looked into this or explained in detail why they think it is not worth an investigation at all..
I mean.. imagine all those "clues" would have been found following a leak of Trump emails. That would have been enough for Democrat Congress to call for an official investigation and try to impeach him, no? It's not like they had any evidence for russia collusion or ukrainegate..
