wayfair cabinets.

The same cabinet would have many listings on wayfair, with just variations on the name, which would usually be the first or last name of missing children. and on these the price would be crazy like $20K, where the 'original' listing would be on the order of 100$. if you checkout with the crazy-price cabinets, names of missing children would autopopulate the checkout form. the counter argument was that these crazy-price listings were gaming the search algorithm, causing the 'original' listing to rise in prominence, but i dont buy that.

ellen did something similar with pillows.

So first and foremost the naming of them was only first names, which right off the bat is some pretty shitty proof and obviously at the very least absolutely hinge on those supposed cases being legitimate and the children still being missing....... Well, it turns out that a good portion of the ones people tried to tie to a specific case ended up being children that were no longer missing, just like the overwhelming vast majority of missing children cases that get solved extremely quickly... So almost immediately that tears apart the one tangible pseudo link this had to being possibly true...

And even two of the chicks that were claiming to be linked to it literally went on Facebook live to refute the claims that they were ever even missing in the first place.....

Let's keep in mind that all of this was linked off of first names only and nothing else.... So it was pretty fucking dependent on those cases being real and ongoing, which the majority of them weren't....

I love a good conspiracy theory but only when it is logical and makes sense. It also seems that whenever someone wants to believe something they will go out of their fucking way to ignore evidence to the contrary, even if that evidence is stronger than the original evidence being used to prove it in the first place..... This is the type of shit they use against us to make us look crazy though and I think they even help spread shit like this so that it muddies the waters and allows them to just label us all as crazy, while covering up the conspiracy theories that are actually true... It's quite literally in the CIA handbook.....

you should keep links to hard evidence to hand out; id like to see it (not necessarily saying i doubt you). but you still leave the biggest reason why these cabinets were suss untouched: why did they cost 20k$? Even if you cannot link the names to exact missing children, it could still be a vehicle for human trafficking. and why did checkout forms autopopulate with first and last names?

That’s cool, when did you get to read the CIA handbook?

Oh come on, I like conspiracies, too.. but the whole Wayfair thing had no proof.

It's the same thing as when you could put in ANY number up to 1,000 when searching for COVID deaths or cases, and you would get search results in Google.

People were saying Google was just "auto-completing" a query. It's not that. OMG I don't even want to explain it anymore. With all the states, cities and COUNTIES around the country, of course there are going to be articles talking about XXX number of new COVID infections.

It wasn't a conspiracy, but people thought it was proof that Google was just making up news articles based on a search query.

Just like the Wayfair conspiracy. There are logical reasons for it. I won't list them out, but the various listings were from independent sellers. Go on Amazon or eBay, and look for something that has various sellers (not fulfilled by Amazon) There will be many options to purchase, many at ridiculously high prices.

I used to be on AboveTopSecret back in the day; I love conspiracies. But coincidences are not conspiracies.

Nobody was shipping children in Wayfair cabinets. Perhaps I'll get downvoted for this, but I don't give a crap.

The reall conspiracies are the Election Fraud, COVID, the MSM, the Chinese infiltrating our government, etc. etc. Focus on that.

This is my reply to OP, but I figured you might need to see it too

I don’t really know any of the details, I just want to point out 2 oddities with the story. The fact that there was cheaper versions of the furniture that didn’t have names is odd as is the use of first names as a model name on furniture. Usually furniture is named for a place or uses a surname.

Of course those don’t mean anything nefarious was going on, just some unusual facts. Either way it makes for a creepy and interesting story.

I didn't dig in myself enough to get full conviction this is true, but it is really suspicious.

Wayfair's Official 'denial is what lead me think there was something to the story.

Yeah. There are very good reasons why Ellen is under house arrest and wearing an ankle monitor...
