Sex trafficking in the QAnon sense refers to abducting (white) young women (or children) to then sell their sexual services for profit. It's really just an extension of the stranger danger panic and the satanic panic, and the idea of international sex trafficking rings don't really make any sense once you stop to think about it, legally or financially.

There isn't a huge buyer base willing to purchase sex from women in cells. There's also no evidence of secret satanic cults sacrificing children basically ever.

The QAnon theories or the Gunderson theories are extremely different from the actual problem, which is men using their authority and influence to pressure vulnerable women close to them to perform sexual services. Epstein, Weinstein, Larry Nassar, Jean-Luc Brunel etc. are not kidnapping unknown people from the street, but rather they position themselves in places where they get easy access to and power over lots of young women.

The typical sex trafficking case where someone is forced to sell sex involves a supposedly romantic partner (typically a significantly older male) being the one doing the pressuring/forcing, and in some rare cases it's a drug seller or human trafficker, but the last for obvious reasons is not a thing that threatens white women already in the US.

The satanic sex trafficking rings are really a red herring that does not in any way address the actual sexual abuse that happens in the world.

Sexual abuse of women has nothing to do with satanic cults or kidnappings, and everything to do with patriarchal power structures and vast economic differences between people.
