Amazing. The "satanic panic" and the various other stories and claims of ritual child abuse etc has been of interest, peripherally, to me for about twenty years. Of all the things I've read I have never come across this information. Thank you for researching and writing this.
That is some amazing dig into her. I did a lengthy article last year on the whole 80s satanic panic and never discovered that in my research. Interesting find.
What I always found shady about her was that she worked for the CIA. To her credit, she never ran from it but quotes like this from her were rather bizarre- “In my experience, The Agency was completely different from its image; it was liberal, nonviolent and honorable.”
Haha. You mean the same Agency that was in the 60s toppling regimes all over the world and installing dictatorships like the Shah in Iran and Sukarno in Indonesia at the time.
And by the time she wrote that, MULTRA had been exposed by the Church Committee.
Michael, thank you for posting this. I literally haven’t laughed this hard in a really long time. You’re actually one of my heroes.
I agree it’s genuinely worthwhile to parse these political hagiographies as the slop that they are, but this was a takedown I will probably reread. Happy Labor Day weekend.
You did a great job with this article. I had no idea she was heavily involved in the recovered memory/Satanic sex cult hysteria. Did you know that the best selling book SYBIL was also exposed as a complete fabrication?
Virtually all mass-market commercial products in that period promoting ritual sex abuse claims turned out to be hoaxes. See also the huge best-selling book "Michelle Remembers."
That seems like feminist revisionism. I just read an article that says Sybil was a true story and some in the psychobabble field have discredited it due to jealousy over the profits made from the book & movie. w0e-MEN'S crimes against children are always minimized like so many feminists & beta/cucks are doing with the Clancy MONSTER. Therefore I wouldn't doubt it if it were indeed a true story, just
I don't believe Sybil was a fabrication. There are evil mothers that torture their children. I just read an article that says there was never any empirical evidence that it didn't happen and that some in the psychology field chose to discredit the story simple because they were jealous the book and movie made money
Outrageous! Steinem was just a third-rate reactionary huckster, as it turns out, and her CIA employment wasn't the worst of it, which is even more astonishing. Nice work, Michael.
YES. ALL the fe-MALE YENTAS like Steinem telegraphed their sexual frustration with their beta/cuck husbands throughout the 1970's and 1980's by using the psychology field to export their orgasm problems & rape fetishes around the world, not to mention their PENIS ENVY. Ms. was coined by Steinem's cohort and is short for MISTRESS. Steinem also tried to coin the word HER-story as in HIS-story. She was definitely Satanic as Lindsay Clancy is also.
Great article. Sadly, I see a parallel of Steinem & her supporters to Massie and me. I love his libertarian aspects but his Epstein obsession seems eerily similar to Steinem's. And this summary of the 1980's Satanic Panic is tying in well with the Epstein thing. Maybe ritual child sexual abuse is an innate human fear. Anyway, you mentioned Zorro Ranch. Just wondering if you went out there and found any bodies while you were in that great State of New Mexico, oops, I mean New America.
I never know which Michael Tracey will show up in my inbox. I'd say it's very exciting but unfortunately in my view he's been dishonoring the corpses of three dead children recently.
Say what? How did he "dishonor" (?!) the corpses of three dead children? You're referring to the Clancy case, and I read the article he published, and you, like so many hysterical and ill-informed and frankly ignorant people, don't have any kind of ethical or moral ability of discernment. Too bad. You have my sympathies, but really now, I enjoy the irony of you liking this article, but not the one on the Clancy case, when the two point in exactly the same direction as far as hypocrisy and phony moral rectitude go.
This and the column on the Clancy case actually address the same moral and ethical points, but your knee-jerk arousal over Tracey's justified hammering of that old liberal fraud Steinem is what's got you back in his corner again. The same lunatic, reactionary, ignorant and stupid beliefs (and the opportunity for self-aggrandizement) that drove Steinem and others' depraved flogging of the phony Satanic child abuse nonsense is driving the hatred and contempt and outright lies directed against Ms. Clancy during her trial. And you don't get that. Did you even read what M. Tracey wrote about the Clancy affair? It was clearly and well-written, and to the point. But you utterly missed the point.
Ms. Clancy? YOU MEAN THAT TRIPLE CHILD MURDERER? What's wrong with beta/cucks like you defending a CHILD MURDERING MONSTER? Clancy is a DEMONIC EVIL MONSTER who indeed MURDERED THREE CHILDREN. She was compos mentis/You are a FOOL. Hopefully she gets convicted and SENT TO THE WORST PRISON. Hopefully she gets a cell mate who's a transgender with a fetish for witches in wheelchairs. SHE DESERVES THE DEATH PENALTY.
(Post pardon the w0e-MAN) PPD is pop psychology and would be the SAME as excusing rape & murder due to testosterone. FUCK OFF.
“A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle” which is why I pictured her when she married late in life as a New Yorker style cartoon, the elderly couple pedaling a bicycle built for two.
Thank you Michael. We need to be reminded of this. I had almost forgotten the children satanic frenzy and I never knew Steinem was such a supporter. Ugh! Excellent work. Kathryn from Brooklyn.

This is Tracey being very good.

She was the definition of controlled opposition
She dated America's leading war criminal.
Great point
That shows her to be either very hypocritical or very stupid

I just laughed at the thought of you laughing at it.

Article deserves a wide audience. I hope your reach is expanding.
It helps when people upgrade to paid subscriptions! Just sayin'
Dunno Mickey, I find her pushing of feminism and male hatred, fear and resentment more worrying than the Satanic storyline.
Write your own article on that then
They are interlinked. The latter is an extreme consequence of the former.
They are one and the same. Stranger Danger is anti-male.

Brilliant. I had no idea of this history
Wow, healthily skeptical Michael shows up. Who's been keeping him hostage?
You just started reading M Tracey last week?

We disagree.
She was a spook
