Many of the propagandists of Autocracy, Inc., have learned from the mistakes of the twentieth century. They don’t offer their fellow citizens a vision of utopia, and they don’t inspire them to build a better world. Instead, they teach people to be cynical and passive, because there is no better world to build. Their goal is to persuade people to mind their own business, stay out of politics, and never hope for a democratic alternative: Our state may be corrupt, but everyone else is corrupt too. You may not like our leader, but the others are worse. You may not like our society, but at least we are strong and the democratic world is weak, degenerate, divided, dying.
This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.

This needs to be addressed. In fact the whole lobby group & donations systems need a complete overhaul.

Stealing kids and secretly shipping them to a foreign country is the definition of child trafficking, isn't it.
