Lots of interesting things here, but for clarification how did you tie "Son of Ben Sledge" to the threatening email ( http://archive.is/FGBIe )?

The only names in the email thread are indicating that the conversation is between Gray Fuller, Mike McCullar, and Mike's son David McCullar.

Your comment re: Zuckerberg joining NAMBLA is disputed by the very reference you posted-FAIL

Adding a little technical insight into this.

One of the emails you mentioned:

https://search.wikileaks.org/gifiles/emailid/1628544 Contains a lot of : =C2=A0

A google search for that string

https://www.google.com/search?q=%3DC2%3DA0&oq=%3DC2%3DA0&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.317j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

turns up a stackoverflow post

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2774471/what-is-c2-a0-in-mime-encoded-quoted-printable-text

that explains:

"=C2=A0" represents the bytes C2 A0. However, since this is UTF-8, it translates to 00A0, which is the Unicode for non-breaking space.

The "hot dogs and pizza for $65,000 that Obama paid for" that is definitely code for boys and girls.

The proof is where it says "i assume they will be coming through the usual channels" -- that is smoking gun.

You don't send real food "through the usual channels" especially to the White House where all outside food has to be special-ordered by the Secret Service to make sure it's not poisoned.

They are guilty as hell their own emails convict them totally.

"All of Stratfor" automatically discredits your post. "All of" ANYTHING discredits everything said after that. Perhaps a little less stereotyping, a bit more FACT?

You know @PleadingtheYiff on your list used to be a mod here?...LOL

Alex Jones' INFOWARS was directly connected to STRATFOR. This is getting really weird. Who the heck is INFOWARS?

@redberries A corporation in Germany. Pewobe, lost their contract for asylums for refugees this year for unnaceptable emails of killrooms, guillotines and such. There are USA Dept of Labor Laws and more; plus Corporate Govt Contracts ( Integrity Reports) where federal law and contract mandate violations must be reported by peers, and a separate entity to call and report various violations and Whistleblower Protections to be enforced and investigated by OIG and DOP.

The Federal Acquisition book is linked in Politico, Dec. 22, 2016, "Trumps $440billion dollar Weapon." Stratford is a corp.on govt contract, so there are stricter laws than with corps.

The emails by one of the sons are quite telling. Wonder if he would interview if protected as a source? Regardless if on cartoons or done at other work sites; still does not make it federal law and contract legal; nor take away from the construct, context and unethical inappropriateness.

In group think mentality, comedy, does reveal character traits, personality, acceptable behavior and actions, inside talks and issues they "bond" on, and social psycho traits that groups choose to be important that benefit their needs, personalities, chosen traots, thoughts and habits. Also, doublespeak and metaphors.

Just like hardworking worldwide citizens attacked by gang group mentalities on childcare. A sado maso habit of control, tyranny, groupthink agenda, false justifications to libel and Harrass as citizen protections laws of libel, slander and defamation are of higher protection than public figures.

Ones that repeat post of false news are ignored as hours of hard work.on various leads; are escalating in patterns of libel, isolate and outcaste attempts, gaslight and psych social attempts to break a citizen we for inclusion of themselves with free labor, time, effort and concern of child safety, corruption's and our nations and worldwide future.

I appreciate the time and effort that you gave in following a lead that you found. As Stanford is on federal, govt contracts, it is a pertinent lead to ensure our tax dollars are being used appropriately. Even falsifying and using up tax dollar hours with social gossip is a federal violation. It is important to know and discuss.

Dissemination of knowledge and thought is healthy as is promoting discussion versus blockading discussion with justifications. A lot of time and effort goes into ones blockading healthy discussion, that is useless and inefficient. If ones are not interested, it is very simple, vastly more efficient, professional and mature go simply "keep it moving." Choices not to, are quite revealing.

Noone needs to agree, respectively; yet harboring and escalating to delay efficiency in further research and communication is not professional.investigations that put child safety first and foremost; realizing that everyday and moment can count to save and protect a child, in some degree.

In fact, stopping corruption can save many lives, finances, jobs, and quality of lives for many in the USA and abroad that are negatively impacted, with Public Trust Violations, federal law and contract violations. Obamacare corruption's, nuclear power plant violations, court custody/foster/cps issues Harming families, ensuing VA scandal, and so much more are stealing the human rights and constitutional of many.

Compassion is strength, requires ethics; which requires oversight, awareness, citizen inclusion and unity with no new that give of their self and time in good will intent and integrity.

Further Stanford emails are also revealing. Ones that joke about continuing to test apart Iraq and lie to the masses the reasons of war. The Serbian mafia that is very powerful with black market routing, using Turkey as a bypass. Search term meat grinder and meat grinder will pull those emails up and others; including an arrest in Syria with meet grinders and boxes of soap. Those emails and more give a further construct of the inner thoughts and actions of this group think mentality, and their use of time, while on the job under contracts. Stanford emails are in Wikileaks, not Sesame Street; so if ones feel they want to devote their adult time and efforts to research; that is their choice. All decent are pieces of the puzzle. Again, thanks for your freely giving of your time and effort to care about the world and children. Apathy, turn face, unec divisions, dramas, etc; have clearly proven to not assist in a healthy nation, world or future. Sure, maybe not a smoking gun, but noone knows for sure; and investigations are a work in progress, not a fonalized, professional, formalized report. Im not going to obsess on a phrase in a work in progress, but more focus on ones who expend in time and efforts to freely labor, and contribute what they have found. All is so complicated already, efficiency in movements requires flexibility and keeping it moving in mutual respect; and legit intent will care to read from ones who contribute; and those traits are key in solving safely and in full, any type of problem. Hope you have a good day.

In reference to Ray's Famous Pizza: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray's_Pizza

Yesterday i saw a person on twitter who is linked to it.

His twitter account.

His google+ account

Heard it a long time ago. Lots of searches explain the history.

Flairing "accuracy in question," based on the title (ALL Stratfor members?), all the users disagreeing with OP's assumptions, and this thread. Honestly, this is a huge wall of text, and it's very hard to discern the value of it given how it is presented.

I would recommend editing and condensing this to main points. You don't need everything written word-for-word (you can use embedded links as proof). I would suggest organizing your points in a coherent, condensed fashion, and making an objective assessment of the relative strength of the evidence, rather than assuming this proves ALL Stratfor members are pedophiles (confirmation bias is a hell of a drug, LOL). Basically, when you comb through a huge amount of data, it's easy to find stuff that could be construed as confirming what you're looking for. Some of this seems like it could be genuine references to pedophilia, but some of it probably isn't. This point is your title is WAY overblown.

Guys joke calling each other gay or showing bro-love...but they don't call each other pedophiles. These emails have so many "pizza" related words and files, it would be wise to take it seriously to either rule it out completely or confirm something. They have a "pizza final report" file and a "pizza analysis file" that looks simply like new webpage navigation for subscriptions. Why call it pizza? It doesn't add up at all. Could their subscription page be actual newsletter signups as well as masking other "subscriptions". I dunno, but with all the other crazy leads it's worth at least ruling it out for certain before just blowing it off.

I have no clue most of y'alls backgrounds or ages but you don't throw around pedophile network jokes to your homeboys. Maybe I missed something but last time I checked your reputation and integrity ment a lot in the professional world. While this may not be a smoking gun it definitely shows these people are up to some shady shit. Instead of calling it workplace banter why not cross reference some of the names with books that have been written about NAMBLA.

I fucking knew NAMBLA was behind this disgusting shit. Ever since reading "the last undercover" about a FED who went undercover in that sick group. Somebody needs to out members of that degenrate club for the public to see. I would recommend you guys read that book some time. I want to vomit now. An punch through a brick wall at the same time. Sick bastards.

ALL workers at Stratfor?!

That's because they don't see what they're doing as morally wrong or actually physically harmful to young kids. They've been doing it so long and have never been jailed like most pedos so they are far more brazen then the average criminal.

Agreed, slam dunk grounds for instant dismissal.

Yah but these people need stuff to do after work. TV sucks nowadays, am I right? :P

Fantastic work

more info on a RAY'S PIZZA - closed long ago, used to be a mafia front

may or may not be at all what they are talking about

http://gothamist.com/2011/09/27/the_hunt_for_the_real_original_rays.php

I hope that somebody hacks NAMBLA and drops of user records and stuff.

OP, you put in a lot of effort here, and you did a good job of info collation and presentation. So you get an A for all of those categories.

The problem is that YES, there ARE companies where "locker room talk" is normal. The people ITT telling you that are just people telling you that. Calling them all shills is a sign that you might need a day off to get some fresh air.

I'm not going to DV the OP, but the atmosphere ITT is really toxic and the foregoing fresh air advice applies to a lot of y'all.

Aggressive downvotes goin on... Are we stomping around close to the bee hive?

Sorry about comparing these sic fucks to the awesome bees. I love you guys. Honey and life u produce.

Holy shit, this is solid.

I think we need to have a discussion for the people having trouble accepting this satanic reality and how all encompassing it has become. You really can't fully absorb it without a spiritual framework or understanding. The problem is that many of the spiritual teachings of the main stream religions have become archaic and have not updated themselves to the modern world. They fell victim to the phrase: 'the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist'. In that cloak of secrecy they were able to pursue their demonic world wide agenda unhinged.

The key is to find a guide on authentic religious eschatology. If you find this interesting let me know and I can piece a few things together for those who would find it beneficial.

Good detection. Thank you.

As they say at Stratfor- say yes to baby punching: http://archive.is/cygqE

Inserting bad evidence in the corpus reduces the appa rent degree to which good evidence deserves exposure/digging. Dilution is a classic means of undermining forums; a forum that has turned to gossipy stupidity is fully neutralized in almost all cases. Only a chan can be gossipy and stupid while still digging, and this is not a chan.

Fuckin NAMBLA. EVERYBODY knows about NAMBLA. I feel like I'm back in grade school.

It completely depends on the organisation and the way the coworkers all get on with each other and their managers. I have worked at places where people would joke with each other and stuff over work email and an email like this one would not be out of the ordinary. I've also worked at places where you'd never send an email using work email unless it was strictly work-related. It seems clear that this group of coworkers get on really well and are close, given that one of them is upset and is thanking the others for their support. In jobs where you work a lot and it can get very stressful, the people you're around all the time are your coworkers and it's a situation in which you can develop strong close friendships and a kind of joky camaraderie I think. If you have a manager/managers who are also part of the close knit group and if they take the lead in sending casual emails and making off colour jokes then the rest of the team will normally follow suit.

Well, when there's a ton of posts before it calling out anyone who disagrees as a shill, it's pretty clear you might want to say, "look I'm not a shill".

You could try using logic and context.

This is the closet to a smoking gun I think we have come so far. When you compare this with the code words in the Podesta emails, the creepy artwork at CPP and in Tony Podesta's home, the spirit cooking, and Alefantis' Instagram, it is not just "speculation" as to what these people are up to. Not to mention Jimmy Saville, Franklin coverup, Dennis Hastert, etc. It is EXTREMELY CLEAR what's going on here, and anyone who's actually looked at the evidence and thinks "nothing to see here" is delusional.

I can't wait till the NYT, Fox News, CNN, WaPo, that stupid cunt Megyn Kelly, etc. lose all credibility for trying to cover this up.

"Who all is in the Austin office today who is going to want pizza? We only have one slice and we need to know how thinly to slice it..." Yeah, they're totally just joking about it. /s

This is very interesting. Fantastic research. This investigation is getting stronger every day. MSM must take notice soon. The people will demand an investigation.

I see a lot of comments saying that it's 'locker room talk' or that they are joking. I know for sure that if I used such comments with my company email to accuse a coworker of being a pedo then I would be fired from my shitty ass job in minutes

You know what definitely is a joke? This thread.

"You're a shill!" "No, you're a shill!" "I know you are but what am I???"

Note to Pizzagaters: I'm not a shill.

No, but you are irrational to a "Hugh Mungus" extent.

I found these emails awhile back, check them out. His son, if I remember correctly, calls him a pedophile... and an incestuous fuck.

Agree with laqueefa. Upvoated but only commented really because I wanted to say laqueefa

How the hell does this have so many upvotes? Theyre clearly joking here. So youre saying that theyre smart enough to talk about "pizza" as a code but then just straight up reveal and say theyre pedophiles? Just like that? Doesnt make sense. And anyone who says no-one would ever make jokes about pedophiles or pedophilia, are you fucking serious? Like many people have pointed out one of the most popular animated adult comedy shows in the world called South Park makes numerous jokes about the subject and even worse things. And so does Family Guy for example. It even has a goddamn pedophile as a character: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_(Family_Guy) And guess what, they both have millions of fans who find that shit funny. Not saying I do or that I approve it, just pointing out that theres millions of people who do.

What the Fuk is up with all this gay crap ? Why young boys ? I just don't get it. I watched the whistle blower video of the Bilderberg wife talking about all the brass military men ass banging each other. WTF. I don't believe in God or Satan but that shit makes me wonder if there is a Satan and He's possessed these men. Im completely heterosexual. I just don't get all this butt sex with little boys. WTF

Yes. This 👆

Stupid theories like this discredit the board. Can someone please report this submission and ban the poster.

YEEEEEES! You are so wizard anon! So much greatness!

http://pizzagate.wiki/Stratfor

Don't forget Ben West at Stratfor asked if Bayless Parsley was busted in a pedo sting: http://pizzagate.wiki/Stratfor#Re:_Elaborate_Anonymous_Sting_Snags_190_Kiddie_Porn_Fans

edit: Confirmed Benjamin Sledge of Heart Support is same Benjamin Sledge of Stratfor. Definitely no misinfo there.

This would not be receiving nearly as much backlash without the "SMOKING GUN" in the title. This is not a smoking gun, and even though it's good information, I won't be upvoting. Everybody putting "smoking gun" in their titles, when it's not, lowers the credibility of the investigation.

Lol you should see the horrible things me and my friends have said to each other while playing video games. We joke about gassing the jews more often cuz my friend is jewish. But there is no topic off the table when one of us wants to deliver a shock statement just for fun.

These emails all compiled sure are suspricious. But I would put a lot of money on the fact that some or even many of these emails really are just fucked up jokes.

Edit* I should mention that when considering other evidence this company is almost definitely involved in all of this. But that doesn't mean the content of these emails isn't likely joking. Me and my friends joke about killing jews because my buddy is jewish. Wouldn't surprise me if they joke about raping kids because they are involved in child trafficing.

One correction. You said "defending nambla" but actually the email basically says "we don't like nambla but they have a right to free speech like everyone else" the email is literally talking about the difference between defending free speech and supporting the speech of a particular group and here you are significantly failing to make that very distinction. And yes, it is an important distinction. Even pedo groups have a right to free speech. It's just that none of us intends to listen when they speak.

I call my friends "stoners" facetiously ... and even thought they aren't, it doesn't take away from the fact that they do smoke weed.

Looking at how these people talk to each other is crucial. I don't know why so many people are writing this off. Any way we can see who is actually IN NAMBLA?

Probably seeking eternal life... https://youtu.be/vWy_Qf8gfko

A. Jones works for (or did work for) Stratfor. Just sayin.

Don't dismiss. Research, research, research. Ask the right questions.

The first email seems like a joke but the second one has a serious/creepy tone to it.

lol! u get the worst shill ever award

Frankly we do need to do an old fashioned witch hunt....none of these people deserve the benefit of the doubt anymore....things are so bad we are going to have to go all Philippines Rodrigo Duterte on these fuckers.....

The word SmokingGun must be banned while we do not have a video of Obama fucking a kid.

This make the whole post look like sensationalism, while there is very interesting content in it !

And sensationalism is 90% from shills...

So assume you're not a shill (i think so):

* is there a pedo ring in DC elites ?
    * if yes => do stratfor member are part of it ?  
         * if yes => these emails are evidences
         * if no =>  are they aware of this ring ?
               * if yes => Joking about NAMBLA when you are connected to a pedo ring ? "more than dark" humor..
               * if no => How a **global intelligence company** could not be aware of such a big thing ??
  

By the way, your quote about pizzagate wiki:

also runs a still-existing international PIZZA delivery website at their stratfor domain

Where is this site ? the link on pizzagate.wiki page point to wikileaks.

nice try, shill

For real. I work for a fairly big company, and I don't know anyone who would be caught saying something like that in a work email.

This is an intelligence agency that does work with the CIA.

Guess who is following Stratfor on Twitter: https://i.sli.mg/ab8uXL.png

that may not be far off the mark - i hadn't considered that angle.

if it is the case, though, it still makes the point that they recognize the negativity associated with the group, which is all i was saying to start - they are using it in a retaliatory manner, not in a friendly manner.

makes wild claims he can see ips

refuses to prove claims

baselessly calls a bunch of random people shills

backs up 0 claims

shill shill confirmed. 100% logged and tagged.

Okay so you made me go back read through a bunch of startfor emails. Just keyword search nambla and stratfor, theres one with SHAC, anti animal cruelty group. Anyways they're just shit talking. I don't know if english is your first language but start reading it. It's childlish dick and booger jokes.

I think they are all pedos in the upper echelons of gov't but I think your jumping the smoking gun.

Sign him up for NAMBLA. Like when your friend calls you faggot in 5th grade.

https://wikileaks.org/gifiles/docs/35/3522806_re-social-fwd-four-great-short-stories-.html

Eh, I read it as a joke too. There is at least one guy I work with that makes the joke exactly like this all of the time.

I fear this is not only losing steam but growing in ways that will kill the issue and never get resolved.

Does that mean Robert Kaplan is a pedo? https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/938

http://www.campaignmoney.com/political/contributions/robert-kaplan.asp?cycle=12

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_D._Kaplan

Posts like this are why the 100 comment to downvote shit is bad. This guy probably has multiple accounts. So many replies in this and many threads read like someone talking to themselves. If lurkers, sane people and non-shit poster/cheaters could downvote, this dumbshit wouldn't be at the top making us look bad. I'm officially done with this shitshow till it changes for the better.

"Squirrel punching included

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=punching+the+midnight+squirrel&amp=true&defid=8607043

According to urban dictionary this is slang for raw masturbation.

Trying to put this new information in perspective. Stratfor is a CIA contractor for global intelligence. It has intelligence assets all over the world (Wikileaks has its master list). But it serves more than one purpose, obviously. Is its other purpose to traffick children to politicians throughout the world for blackmail purposes and also use the children to collect intelligence? And then dispose of the children when their purpose is complete?

Yes. It's called busting people's balls. Locker room talk like when Trump said grab her pussy.

Here is an example from the movie 40 year old virgin. I'm sure the title hit to close to home for some people here, so I'll provide a link.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TwhhNgjxkp8

Do you think that they really think each other are gay? Hint: they don't, they're fucking with each other.

Ok. Go look throught my post history, I'm not a fucking a shill...

But why the fuck they would actually want to sign up for nambla? Like even if you're a kid a fucker... Why would you want to sign of for Nambla. The whole basis of this research surrounds secrete socialites and plausible deniability (it's just art, man)

So a lot of these people are involved in a lot of fuckery, but most that fuckery, they could dispelll in 10 second soundbite.... It's only when they have to keep taking about get asked more questions, that they would eventually fuck themselves over...

AKA. jimbo pong balls.

But if you're in fucking Nambla.... You can't even refute you fuck boys, in a 10 second segment.

Now, they could say;

"No, I'm not in nambla."

Which leads me back to my originall point... If they were actually going to sign them up for namnla, you couldn't deny you're part of nambla, because you're signed up.... Somewhere.

You know what I just released.... I bet there is isn't an actual fucking Nambla resgirstration, as you stated.(and as I originally assumed). No one is willing putting themselves on basically sex offender list...

*******************************************************************************************************************************************________________________________________________________________________________________________

Edit: Whelp, People sure as fuck sign up for this organization. Actually, they pay a memebership fee ranging from $15-1000 dollars

Ok, but stop calling everything a smoking gun.

People are so mean here

Dude. I've contributed a lot of info, Some privately, some publicly_{and deleted them, but there still on the site, and can be found in my history with 3 seconds of work.}... All I know, Is if you go look at my reddit account, I say "offensive" shit all the time. So much so, That I don't even factor in most of the email banter, when formulating my opinion of how real this is.

There's too many things unrelated to these emails,that are much more damning, that don't have multiple interpretations. Well at least as far as what has been discovered so far in the emails... It's crazy to think there could still be a nuke out there just waiting to be read.

"Re: Thank you, Strat-Fam.. I think I speak for us all when I say from the deepest recesses of our hearts, you are so loved and mean the world to us and to see you grieve is painful for all of us, as we each care for you so much. We are here to be leaned on and for anything you need. Talks, dinners, and squirrel punching included. Let us know if you want us to sign him up as a NAMBLA member."

Based on that paragraph alone, It reads like a joke. Maybe there is more context that OP didn't provide. If you want to take this as reasoning to investigate these people more, by all means, go for it.... But this email is a fucking joke. Simply as that. How many files were released in GIF? 5 million? and this is what you bring to the table to show they're pedophiles? We know a lot are, but that email doesn't mean shit...

At least in my opinion, and that's even with the context of Pizzagate. I'm usually not the one to say "this doesn't mean shit." In fact, I'm usually the one trying to explain how it "does mean Shit"... but I dunno. Again, I'm only commenting on the single email, talking about signing someone up.

However the email questioning if they used the same channels as obama hotdog party, seems very suspicious.

Posey, last I heard you were fondling boys south of the border....are you back from your NAMBLA convention?

Raharhaha, such a good "joke" eh? Only shills and idiots can close their eyes, say it's all just a big "joke", downvoat and leave.

when someone provides a NAMBLA members or sign-on list, with screen names, then you have the right to claim this, but UNTIL then... blowing smoke up our asses.

and what proof does OP have connecting NAMBLA with Stratfor? ZERO, that I can see so far.

What's so wrong about looking like Marlon Brando?

This post needs more upvoats. Are shills trying to bury this?

This is a joke, it used to be threatening to sign people up for bed wetters association...

I think you should leave out

They are ALL pedophiles. ALL PART OF NAMBLA. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE OF THEM.

no basis for that claim

OK. Set down the gun and step away from the keyboard. I've spent a lot of time reading the Stratfor files, and was one of the first people to question the "Pizza" spreadsheets. I even spent some hours doxxing the people on the email lists and stalking their FB profiles, etc.

Clearly, they are using "Pizza" as code for something; I'm just not convinced that it's in the context of Pizzagate. They do a lot of betting, such as football pools, and the "pivot table" file is clearly something about gambling.

The main takeaway is that these people are privy to some heavy information. They have operatives around the world gathering intel, which they sell to their subscribers. They also do business with some some shady characters, even after having apprehensions about the relationships (See the emails about MAX Security). But I haven't read anything that gives me a pedo vibe.

Keep in mind that these people have their fingers on the pulse of world events and politics. They have good technology and have mentioned how incompetent the three letter agencies are. I'm confident that they already knew that the world is run by Luciferian pedophiles, and felt powerless to do anything about it (although it wouldn't surprise me if they were responsible for some leaks). In the pre-Pizzagate era, NAMBLA was the butt of inter-office joking, and a way to troll someone. NAMBLA members are viewed as a group of creepy old dudes who try to lure children off the playground and into their white vans. Therefore, it was considered a funny insult to liken a co-worker to these people. It was also a joke to add someone's name to various mailing lists, such as pornography and groups such as NAMBLA.

They also joke about how "dreamy" Putin is (tongue in cheek) and how they'd rather see an attractive female politician topless and how they are glad that a less attractive female politician died, so they wouldn't have to see her topless.

If you search "Social" in the Stratfor files, you will find a goldmine of inter-office banter and jokes. I haven't nearly read the majority of the Stratfor emails, but I wouldn't dare accuse them of "all being members of NAMBLA, HOLY SHIT!" without doing so. And nothing that I have read leads me to believe that they are involved in these activities. Kind of bums me out, because I searched for a long time, with certainty that I'd find something on them.

I hope that you are not a shill, and are just an enthusiastic investigator. On that note, I urge you to keep reading the Stratfor emails and keep looking for the smoking gun.

edit: sp

Join the military and you'll hear much worse. This is tame imo. Settle down people.

Update: down voted for telling people the truth, I like it!

You need to be paid for commenting here to think this.

This is weak. NOT A SMOKING GUN by any stretch. In fact easily dismissed.

"But, but do YOU make NAMBLA jokes sicko?".

No, but people do all the time.

http://www.prankplace.com/nambla-magnetic-bumper-sticker-p/bh-10062.htm

People here are going crazy with confirmation bias and then immediately switch to calling everyone a shill when polite and reasonable disagreement occurs. Quit taking it personally and realize that sometimes your ideas are bad and in fact damaging to the rest of the story.

I love when a new peace of evidence comes out and person after person lines up to attack it as if it exists in a vacuum, which it doesn't, clearly, it exists in the context of everything else surrounding it and this investigation. Those people are really starting to lose their effectiveness and credibility with anyone they hope to influence. I'm only surprised this is the first I've heard of stratfor "joking" about NAMBLA in emails. I feel like that should have stuck out like a bright flashing light to anyone even tangentially involved with going through these emails.

This is not a smoking gun. I wish people would stop putting "Smoking Gun" in titles unless it really is one. Had to down vote based on that. Content is creepy but easily disputed. Thus not a smoking gun. Now if you had pictures of Stratfor employees at a NAMBLA convention or actually fondling boys, THAT is a smoking gun...

you've nailed exactly why context is important.

They're jokes, but that doesn't mean they're meaningless.

Watch for spoopy shills, yo. stay frosty

Two references. Eighteen months apart. One right after mentioning "squirrel punching".

Nope.

Humor or not, "there is some truth in all joking."

I didn't even know the NAMBLA was a thing. But, maybe I just need to catch up with the culture.

holy shit! cant believe im only seeing these emails now

ok, first, it's a reply-all, and we don't see the original, but read the words...we love you, we hate to see your sorrow, we're here for you...clearly someone on that list is sad, and someone has done something to one of them...and he finishes by saying let us know if you want us to sign him up... the him isn't one of the CC'd people.

it follows that if they all love the hurt person, then the action of signing up the person who caused harm is retaliatory.

now, it doesn't say that they aren't associated with the group - so if you take it as a serious question, maybe they're implying that they have an inside track...but the previous line offering a squirrel punch kinda negates the idea that these are serious offers.

dunno - doesn't feel smoking-gunny to me.

People do, definitely. I know people that have that kind of sense of humour. There are comedians and sit-coms that showcase that kind of humour too.

I think the first one could easily be a joke. And the second one seems like it's to someone who's been having a hard time lately and has thanked her colleagues for being kind. The 'Let us know if you want us to sign him up for NAMBLA' could be because she's been dumped or cheated on or something, or some male has done something horrible to her, so it's slightly joky, like 'we can get revenge on him by making him look like a pedo' Maybe they have dealings with NAMBLA through their work or something? I don't think this proves they are all members - I read it and instantly thought it was a joke and a revenge idea respectively.

yeah, the second one isn't "a joke", but the context is clearly that signing someone up for that group would be in retaliation for some other wrong.

why so many ASSUMING it's all a "joke"? (HINT: SHILLS)

well, I don't, but people do... people have strange senses of humour. People joke about being gay, being a pedo, being a rapist etc - it's just low brow humour and given that the office graphic designer is saying it (it's not their role to be serious at all) I am convinced they were just trying (and failing) to be funny. "sign him up to nambla lol". Come on - do you really think people would seriously and openly talk like that without it intended to be funny?

I think this is sarcasm.

redberries, what is this yo? Obvious humor, this is worse than the pizza slices cut thin joke. Not evidence of anything, and hardly pizzagate related. Fuck :/

Hardly a smoking gun. Here's what a good one looks like:

Everyone says 'smoking gun' so much. Let me be as clear as I can: A smoking gun is something NOBODY can argue or deny, and will take down the WHOLE CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION

Actually people do. People make rape jokes all the time. People make racism jokes all the time.

This is why context is important. This type of humor is not your cup of tea, but it might be for someone else.

It's humour.. it's written by a graphic designer, trying to be funny....
