Child Trafficking in Hollywood
January 16, 2015
IT’S more of the same in sunny California.
Pagan Hollywood overwhelms children with material things and sentimental attention, giving them the appearance of being cherished, while denying them kinship and bonds with their true parents. It’s a brutal place to grow up, all the more so because of its glittering surfaces.
And it’s all perfectly legal in the U.S.A.

One of my coworkers moved his family from Texas to Hollywood because his daughter wanted to be an actress. Why would a father would willingly cast his child into a grist mill like that? Ignorance only, one hopes. It reminds me of the idol Worshippers in the Old Testament who sacrifice their children by making them walk through fire.
The fact that Hollywood is made up of damaged, degenerate and even evil people from top to bottom is a good reason for families to avoid most of their movies. They are not people to be admired or emulated in any way.

I enjoy a sensational headline as much as the next person, but the linked article doesn’t seem to have much relationship to it.
It says that of the 450 high-tech fertility clinics in the US, some 75 are in California (not all in Hollywood/LA, obviously). That’s about 16%. Since California accounts for about 12% of the US population, the Californian share of fertility clinics is not much above the national average. The 4% difference may just reflect the fact that the state has plenty of people with higher-than-average incomes. Those are the people who can afford fertility clinics, and for that matter, those are the people who for career reasons tend to delay childbearing until fertility-clinic interventions become relevant.
The writer does provide a number of Hollywood examples (Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Garner, etc.) but that’s presumably because (a) the piece was written for the Hollywood Reporter, after all, (b) people are interested in celebrities, and (c) consequently, information about celebrities’ reproductive habits is probably more easily Googled than comparable information about other private citizens.
However you slice it, the article hasn’t got any essential connection with the town all righteous Americans love to hate; and the behaviours it documents are found in other U.S. centres as well.

I’m glad you enjoy “sensational” headlines. I promise to give you more, especially when it comes to the exploitation of children and the bad example of Hollywood.
The article was not only about Hollywood. Forgive me, but I thought it was sufficiently about Hollywood, given the examples and the publication, to say that it said something about “child trafficking in Hollywood,” a term for reproductive commerce that you consider “sensational” and apparently in bad taste.
I don’t know about righteous Americans, but I do know that anyone who is normal and has a well-functioning mind and heart loves to hate (or rather feels obliged to hate since no one normal “loves to hate”) Hollywood because of the very real damage its major industry does every single day and every single minute of the week in promoting the exploitation of children through reproductive novelties of one kind or another and various forms of polygamy. That is not to say everyone in Hollywood is a pervert.
