Bears repeating!
Also, let’s stick closely to topic, it really helps preventing tangents and drama.

Not sure if anyone ever heard of the term "sleeper." Sleeper is a term used to label the state of mind of the unaware person. A person is unaware because the new information is too anxiety-provoking to reach their awareness. That is: their higher conscious and intellectual levels of functioning. When people can't tolerate certain levels of anxiety, the brain cannot process the information that is presented to them. It does not emerge into consciousness for them to be able to assess the new information. It is treated as dangerous and life-threatening. They defend against it with negation and their brain blocks it. This occurs beneath consciousness. This is expressed by avoidance, mocking, and ridicule of the new information and anyone who speak it.
I am not saying that everyone does that, but it is an important component of people's perceptions and their processing of reality which can't be ignored. I work with a lot of people who are intolerant to anxiety, which generates more anxiety. The brain gets so overwhelmed that they use "splitting" to be able to survive.

Amazing!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for this!!! This is great info!
It appears as also something related to child sex trafficking... https://www.ourrescue.org/blog/signs-of-slavery
Many of you are certainly quick to determine you will never purchase from Balenciaga or the Kering Group. If you do some research what brand doesn’t have scandal? Chanel has Nazi affiliations, they say Coco Chanel had a relationship with a Nazi officer. Hermes boutique caught for selling fakes as real bags. Nike slammed for low wages and labor practices. Dolce and Gabbana China fashion show scandal over alleged racism. The list goes on and on. If you are all set to abandon every brand with bad marketing choices you better learn to sew! I do not condone any of the bad marketing/scandals I am simply saying most brands have scandal that they overcome.
The ads are distasteful and disturbin. how it got approved from the executives is beyond me.
Everyone involved need to resign.

I think the difference is this subject matter and offense relates to children so blatantly. This personally has produced outrage on my part. I also feel this statement, proves 2 wrongs (or multiples) does not make a right. I am trying to raise my awareness regarding content aspects of your post and others as well. It is a daunting task.
Ummmm…. These are children?
Hmmm, ads not actual harm to children compares to Nazi’s and the livelihood of people?
Some are listed as such by the FBI. Others maybe not. But the pedophile symbols are well known.
Many only bought after Coco Chanel was dead for this reason alone. So yes, there was most definitely blowback for her association with Nazi’s. But the brand moved on. Different owners, different CD, etc. No doubt if Balenciaga swept house, it would allow for a similar reset of its relationship with the public.
My interpretation, and granted I’ve only worked with a handful of BDSM patients over the years, is that these displays were meant to mimic a BDSM playroom where the children were either one of the toys or a sub.
This has nothing to do with Qanon. This has to do with a company disseminating pedophilia. Pedophilia is an old problem that society doesn't seem to be able to get rid of. Maybe because people continue to ignore it. Child trafficking and child sexual abuse has existed for years, way before this Q movement started. Child abuse and child trafficking are NOT conspiracy theories. Have you ever talked to someone who has been abused as a child? Did you know that 1 in 4 girls are sexually abused and 1 in 6 boys are? Did you know that the abuser is someone the child knows? No wonder parents are consenting to this. Only 10% of abusers are strangers. Did you know that grooming is not a conspiracy theory term? Have you ever researched websites that teach parents how to protect their children from sexual abuse? Do you know the facts? If you do know the facts, Qanon is way at the bottom of the list
Thank you. I think it’s clear from some of the responses here why it continues to persist.
