They have been telling us this shit for years in movies
Does anyone remember The Transporter with Jason Statham? What were they dealing with but human smugglers with people being trafficked in shipping containers
And what about Leathal Weapon 4
Murtaugh and Riggs protect a Chinese family that was trafficked in... you guessed it
Shipping containers on huge ships
And that certainly wasn't the first time that particular franchise tackled the subject either
Take a closer look
Quoting: Alhanna Hot damn, I LOVE it when I can start my morning w/ caffeine, nicotine and Jason Statham!!!
Funny you mention
Lethal Weapon series and yes, human trafficking was main theme of last installment. There have always been hints (if not downright whacks upside the head w/ a 2x4) of the horrible realities of victims sprinkled in our spoon fed news, entertainment, literature, art, etc.
Look people, we all acknowledge that human slavery has always been a thing ever since us bi-pedals sat up to blow our noses. Now, I'm going a bit woo-woo w/ this comment but let us say we are certainly NOT the only species of life in the Cosmos.
Are there any other species out there that rely on enslaving another living being? Running just the numbers, yeah, it's a safe bet to say there are. But conversely, I also believe there are Type 1 and higher civilizations out there that are watching how the inhabitants of our 3rd rock from the Sun evolve during this Great Awakening.
And we wait. The whole world, hell, the whole Universe even, is watching.
