Something very dangerous is going on...

You suddenly remember everything. What you found out the day before about the "Happy Maid" brand, and how people are suspecting a hidden agenda and some big brainwashing scheme. You remember clearly how you went home with exactly those thoughts in mind, how you got up in the morning with a clear head, and yet... somehow the lust for sex has taken over, clouding your judgement, keeping you enthralled and lusting for sexual fantasies.

How?

What happened? Did the maid somehow **** you? Hypnotize you? Why are you thinking clear sometimes and then completely clueless at other times?

You take a few deep breaths, stare at your screen, and plunge yourself into research again. After a few seconds you realize that most of the articles and links you were reading yesterday have completely vanished. There is nothing there that gives any hint on the conspiracy to brainwash people and make them lusting for sex. But you know that this was not a dream. You know!

Frantically, you continue your search until you finally find some traces and some new blog posts, social media hints and message board discussions. Most of those are written very careful, in ambiguous language. People are trying to disguise their discussions and work with codes and secret terms. You dig deeper. Your work is forgotten, but every time you click on a new link, you fear that the strange desire for sex is coming back, leading you again on a path of consuming porn websites or sexual daydreams. You must concentrate! You must focus!

After a while, a pattern of information forms: People indeed suspect that the source of their strange behaviour are the maids, and that the maids are somehow drugging them, probably with the food and drinks. Thoughts are racing through your mind. You try to remember: Yes, every time you sampled something to eat or drink, your mind got dopey and muzzy. How the hell can you avoid that? Not eat anymore?

You click and click and read on. According to some posts, the people who are behind this are not only erasing texts and shutting down discussions, they also set up traps. There's warnings inside the community that you should not trust anybody, especially not online. People have vanished after trying to meet other alledgedly concerned people. There does seem to be a group of activists who has gone underground, but it's almost impossible to make contact. Then again, maybe people have gotten a bit paranoid? It certainly would be good to meet others who are aware of this. How do you want to fight all of this alone? How do you want to stay sane?

You ponder your options.

During your research you have come up with one other person who seems genuine, as far as you can tell. She seems in a similar situation to you, her husband enthralled by the maid, she herself suspicious, but still full of questions. She's posting and acting very cautious and reclusive. From what you learned, most "fake" affected persons are much more open and actively try to establish contacts, casting wide nets to catch naive people. Of course, the reclusive approach could be just as deceitful. Who knows?
