The Hearst Family Must Not Be Forgotten (pizzagate)

submitted ago by rickman2

Patty Hearst is the granddaughter of William Randolph Hearst Sr. He is the man who started HEARST COMMUNICATIONS and ran for president twice. She was kidnapped by a left wing terrorist outfit called The Symbionese Liberation Army, who consider themselves to be a "vanguard army" while in Berkely, California. While with them she assisted them in various crimes. When she was finally found she was a fugitive and put on trial.

At her trial the prosecution said that she had joined this group of her own free will. But she denied it and said she had been forced through death threats, sexual abuse, being held in close confinement and was brainwashed.

She was convicted and sentenced to 35 years, reduced to 7. She was pardoned by Bill Clinton.

Alison Mack was a high ranking member of NXIVM. It's leader Keith Raniere held the title of Vanguard. It's been revealed that NXIVM controlled its slaves through brainwashing, sexual abuse and keeping them held captive. Their methods of control appear to mirror The Symbionese Liberation Army, even though both had very different objectives.

NXIVM had strong political ties. Their members were part of the Clinton Global Initiative. They also kept dossiers on people such as Roger Stone, Chuck Schumer and...George Randolph Hearst III. The CEO of Times Union and a director of HEARST COMMUNICATIONS.

How is it that the Hearst family are both connected to left wing criminal outfits, with similar methods used to control women. One had a member of their family join them. Either willingly or forced. The other kept a dossier on them. The only reason you have a dossier on someone is if you have SOMETHING ON THEM.

The Hearst family are huge, really rich and powerful in the world of media. And they're heavily linked to all this stuff? Why is nobody asking questions of these people? They could be another Bronfman family who help fund and protect cults like NXIVM or even terrorist outfits.

I can help, here's a link. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patty_Hearst#Kidnapping This all looks relevant to pizzagate to me, especially the part about brainwashing:

Brainwashing claims

At the time of her arrest, Hearst's weight had dropped to 87 pounds (40 kg), and she was described by Dr. Margaret Singer in October 1975 as "a low-IQ, low-affect zombie".[38] Shortly after her arrest, signs of trauma were recorded: her IQ was measured as 112, whereas it had previously been 130; there were huge gaps in her memory regarding her pre-Tania life; she was smoking heavily and had nightmares.[39] Without a mental illness or defect, a person is considered to be fully responsible for any criminal action not done under duress, which is defined as a clear and present threat of death or serious injury.[40][41] But for Hearst to secure an acquittal on the grounds of having been brainwashed would have been completely unprecedented.[42][43]

Psychiatrist Louis Jolyon West, a professor at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), was appointed by the court in his capacity as a brainwashing expert and worked without a fee. After the trial, he wrote a newspaper article asking President Carter to release Hearst from prison.[44]

Hearst wrote in her memoir, Every Secret Thing (1982), "I spent fifteen hours going over my SLA experiences with Robert Jay Lifton of Yale University. Lifton, author of several books on coercive persuasion and thought reform, ... pronounced me a 'classic case' which met all the psychological criteria of a coerced prisoner of war. ... If I had reacted differently, that would have been suspect, he said."[45]

After some weeks, Hearst repudiated her SLA allegiance.[9][46]

Her first lawyer, Terence Hallinan, had advised Hearst not to talk to anyone, including psychiatrists. He advocated a defense of involuntary intoxication: that the SLA had given her drugs that affected her judgment and recollection.[47][10][42][48][page needed]

He was replaced by attorney F. Lee Bailey, who asserted a defense of coercion or duress affecting intent at the time of the offense.[49] This was similar to the brainwashing defense which Hallinan had warned was not a defense in law. Hearst gave long interviews to various psychiatrists.[40]

@Rickman2 This also needs a connection to abuse of minors to satisfy Rule 1. I don't think Patty Hearst was a minor when she got involved.

Hey @Rickman2,

The 24hr Grace period is over and no edit has been made. I will delete this submission per rule 2, Empiricism. For more information please see our subverse rules located in the sidebar. Thank you.

This makes no sense. NXIVM, a group that abused countless minors had dossiers on Hearst. That creates a connection between Hearst and the abuse of minors. This is the second time in less than 24 hours that you have covered for someone with a direct connection to NXIVM.

So now every single person NXIVM had dossiers on is a child trafficker? Dude, you don't logic very well.

I'm happy to leave up a submission on Hearst. But it needs to follow the submission rules, which I did not make.

This is the second time in less than 24 hours that you have covered for someone with a direct connection to NXIVM.

A) There's no direct connection to NXIVM here.

B) There are 262 NXIVM submissions in our research stockpile. Your narrative is garbage.
