Because they are the villains.
Funny thing about villains. They don't know they're villains. They think they're the heroes, and everyone else just has the wrong impression, or are evil themselves.

Years ago, and it is probably findable on the Web - I read an article where Pol Pot stated he was just hugely misunderstood - that history would exonerate him and remember him as a great man. Nero's last words - as he failed to commit suicide and needed his secretary to help him - "How great an ARTIST dies in me!".
And yeah, I know THANOS is fictional - but he exhibits this same thing - I'm doing a good thing! The universe is overpopulated, and will be much better when half the universe is gone.
What we don't have - is Bond-like, Harry Potter type villains - who delight in evil, who enjoy torture and twirl their mustaches with glee at human suffering. Most bad guys believe in their goodness. Heck, I thinik it was Goebbels who said - of Hitler - "really the Messiah, or only John?".
Former Pedophile Advocacy Group Spokesman Writes Bloomberg Hit Piece On ‘Sound Of Freedom’
Noah Berlatsky served in 2021 as communications director for Prostasia, a group that calls itself “a new kind of child protection organization,” but works to remove the stigma surrounding “MAPs” or “minor-attracted people.”
On Saturday, Bloomberg published an opinion article authored by Berlatsky, titled “QAnon and ‘Sound of Freedom’ Both Rely on Tired Hollywood Tropes.” The article was reprinted by The Washington Post.
In the article, Berlatsky, who is also a former NBC contributor, bashed “Sound of Freedom,” which has been hailed by conservatives since it premiered last month. The film is about a federal agent who saves a sister and brother from child trafficking and is based on a true story. The movie stars Jim Caviezel and was produced by the same studio that made the faith-based series “The Chosen.”
Sound of Freedom thunders past $100M at the box office and edges out Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible on Wednesday - despite being dismissed as QAnon conspiracy fodder
- Christian indie film Sound of Freedom topped $100M at the box office this week
- On Wednesday, the film's daily take edged past the new Mission Impossible
- The film was largely bashed by mainstream critics as QAnon conspiracy fodder
Child-Trafficking Bust Proves the Left Was Wrong About ‘Sound of Freedom’
While 126 more suspects in child trafficking and child sexual exploitation are eating prison food today, many legacy media outlets are eating crow.
Less than a month after liberal and left-wing media outlets slammed the child sex-trafficking docudrama “Sound of Freedom” for supposedly being a rallying point for “QAnon supporters,” conspiracy theorists, and “Dads with Brainworms,” the FBI announced the arrests of 126 suspects in a massive child-trafficking investigation.
The FBI, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and state and local law enforcement agencies collaborated in “Operation Cross Country XIII,” resulting in the rescue of “59 actively missing children,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a prepared statement on Aug. 1.
Given the increased prominence of child sex trafficking and exploitation over the past two decades in the United States, a rational individual would think that NPR (which receives government funding and passes itself off as an “independent and unbiased” news source) would mention the 22 times it had covered child sex-trafficking arrests in the past decade, but that’s not the case.

The fact that there have been thirteen of these says a lot.
Australian pedophile ring busted in wake of killings of 2 FBI agents
More than a dozen members of an Australian pedophile ring were arrested in an American FBI operation that rescued 13 children, according to authorities.
The left-wing media called it a conspiracy flick
The reception was not entirely positive, however, as the left-wing media regularly tied the film to the Q-Anon movement. The Guardian ran an article entitled "Sound of Freedom: the QAnon-adjacent thriller seducing America."
NPR ran a headline stating "QAnon supporters are promoting 'Sound of Freedom.' Here's why." That article took aim at Caviezel, whom the author said "spout QAnon falsehoods."
Vox described the film as merely the latest in a string of motion pictures "tinged with hallmarks of the modern right-wing worldview: moral panic, hints of vast leftist conspiracies, and a sense of persecution." It also parroted the accusation that "Sound of Freedom" pushes "QAnon-adjacent rhetoric."
Child trafficking busts are on the rise
The FBI's website acknowledges the pervasive nature of human trafficking in the country, stating that "[h]ere in the United States, both U.S. residents and foreign nationals are being bought and sold like modern-day slaves."
"Traffickers use violence, manipulation, or false promises of well-paying jobs or romantic relationships to exploit victims. Victims are forced to work as prostitutes or to take jobs as migrant, domestic, restaurant, or factory workers with little or no pay. Human trafficking is a heinous crime that exploits the most vulnerable in society," it continues.

Wait, being bought and sold makes them not "like" modern day slaves, it in fact makes them slaves. Not modern day, but slaves.
It's nothing personal. It's just business.

Ah, the Aussies are just as stupid about what to do with pedos as we are. Toss'em to the sharks in the reef and they will at least have contributed something to the planet with their death.
