I've noticed as the communities around here have started to develop, there's been a dramatic uptick in racist posts. I don't believe this is an accident nor organic. I believe shills are the one largely posting racism as a method of keeping people out of these communities, as most 'normies' will see blatant racism and go right back to Reddit. The same has happened previously, with Voat and 4Chan being the biggest examples.
We need to fight this with logic and understanding. If you see a racist post, comment and encourage people to look past something as trivial as skin colour or race. I don't think we need censorship at all, that becomes a slippery slope of more and more censorship, but we shouldn't allow them to associate conspiracy theorists or any of these groups of people around here as racist, which is exactly what they're looking for.
Could not have said it better. There are no racism communities here, it is just that there is not much activity there, so time to start posting there. Most of what is posting here is not conspiracy anyway, more like current events.
That's because this is the last place that a lot of stuff can be posted.
Many things are now either too inconvenient, too far fetched, too offensive, or too off topic, to be posted in any other active .Win community. Certain content is either buried or even actively censored by mods in other communities.
I've been active in a bunch of .Win communities over the past year, but now reached the point where this is becoming the primary community where I spend most of my time.
While there will always be the occasional obvious shill trying to gaslight people and do false flag racism, that is usually quite rare.
Most complaints of racism I see are usually from sensitive lefties who see racists and nazis everywhere they look because they want an excuse to get offended and virtue signal.
Offensive content also acts as a filter, which can be very necessary to prevent a place like this from turning into Reddit. It's not necessarily a bad thing that some normies, who find something offensive, end up going back to Reddit.
The benefit that filters have on communities is highly underrated, but you can observe this in many different places on the internet if you pay enough attention. I can think of many examples of their benefits. Most of these kinds of filters are unintentional, but I also know of some which exist by design, due to active decisions made by people who know how to utilize them effectively.
I disagree. It's hard to believe these "filters" are beneficial. I think people like you prefer these communities stay a little more fringe, and while I get why, it's a different time. Censorship is at an all time high, and people are actually starting to notice. These communities could become a refuge for those seeking the truth. The extreme posts, including racists content, only keeps people them away.
Most people aren't even aware of the impact that different filters have on different sites and communities, let alone try to consider all the pros and cons associated with them.
Do you think it's a coincidence every place that has no filters naturally trends towards the gutter and becomes the same as every other place, with ever increasing censorship and mobs of brainwashed idiots from the hive mind shutting down all wrong thoughts?
Sullivan’s First Law was published in 1989: “All organizations that are not actually right-wing will over time become left-wing.”
The correlation between normies and leftism is worse than ever today, which is why this phenomenon applies to virtually every single kind of community, regardless of how far removed from politics it should be.
This isn't my first rodeo. I've spent time in enough places on the internet over the past 2 decades to notice many such filters, and the effects they have, all on my own.
This goes for everything from extremely right-wing communities like Voat or 4chan, to many extremely centrist communities like Tom MacDonald's fan base.
Most filters come to existence by luck and natural selection. The only communities which survive are those which just happened to have suitable filters protecting them.
Sometimes people are smart enough to actively make use of filters though. I actually came across an interesting example of someone demonstrating deliberate use of a harmless filter only yesterday.
You're probably thinking of ConsumeProduct but they simply are very racist as a community. It's basically a soybased neo nazi sub.
The only thing I've seen are the references to jews, and it's tough to deny the connection, not to mention that you're labeled a "conspiracy theorist" if you speak out about things like how jews control banking, governments, hollywood, etc.
It's definitely a valid topic, whether people are contributing anything meaningful is a whole other subject for debate.
There's plenty of racism towards black people as well. But I think it's wrong to condemn Jewish people because of mistakes their people have made, because you could do the same for white people, or any other race.
I think Israel is a horrible country and what they have done to the middle east and the Palestinians is a tragedy. I also think Jewish communities have done their race a disservice being so self serving, but these issues are a cultural problem. It's okay to dislike cultures or cultural differences. However, I think it would be foolish to say all jewish people are bad.
We need to avoid blanket statements or feelings of hate, and instead discuss issues within these cultures. We would discover we all have a lot more in common than we often think.
Racism represents a suggested -ism that implies the hatred of other races. You can de-fang this rhetorical deception; by questioning why there's no suggested -ism for the love of ones own race? The answer to that is that racism suggests blame by hate; while leaving to room for defense by love against miscegenation (race mixing).
Next; consenting to any suggestion (-isms) causes the conflict of reason (logic) between those who want the suggestion and those that do not want it. This is called division (reason) by suggestion (-ism).
Lastly consenting to suggestion implies choice consenting to choice; while ignoring that choice represents reaction to balance (need/want). All suggested choices represent the choice of want over need; hence causing the conflict of reason between want vs not want.
Nature offers balance towards choice of reaction, and choosing need over want represents adaptation to balance for self sustenance; while choosing want over need represents the deadly temptation to ignore self sustenance. The parasitic few exploit this ignorance among the many by suggesting them wants over needs.
Nature segregates form (life) through flow (inception towards death) into differentiated potential to inspire choice of reaction for self sustenance. Segregation of differences needs to be adhered to inspire need over want; which is why the parasitic few utilize miscegenation to mix together what nature differentiates.
As form within flow we each represent an individual ONE (form) out of a collective ALL (flow), and together flow/form aka loss/growth ALL represents ONE in energy; which represents a) U'NITY, noun [Latin unitas.] - "the state of being one; oneness" and b) us being alone aka ALL(in)ONE.
It's your consent to believe in suggested racism that gives the power to react in the name of "racism" to those who suggest it. You are deceived into idol worshiping (idolized meaning of suggestions) and are now perpetuating it for the parasitic few who suggested it to you. It is you that now points the finger at stuff; while suggesting to others that it's racist.
Why would you evaluate a suggested bot by seeking gratification from it? How devaluating is that for not just yourself; but your entire species?
There's no such thing as Artificial (in opposition to natural) Intelligence...only ignorance of all naturally perceived; causing corruption of ones comprehension aka understanding aka INTEL'LIGENCE, noun [Latin intelligentia, from intelligo, to understand. ]
a) I usually use websters 1828
b) nature does not brand itself with words; it does communicate defined information; instead it moves everything; which the senses of those within perceive as inspiration. It's the suggestion of others that pretend to communicate affixed (true or false) information to us; in exchange for our consent to their suggested meaning. Words (of all languages) represents idolized meanings that allow those who suggest them, to describe reality to those who consent to them.
c) "suggested Word is a fictitious Trojan Horse and the most efficient form of human enslavement ever concocted...Word has no inherent value, as it was invented as a counterfeit and fictitious value to represent natural values in commerce." ~timecube
ARBITRARY, adjective [Latin arbitrarious.] - "depending on will or discretion; not governed by any fixed rules"
Ask yourself what defines us having a free "will" of choice? Could it be that choice represents a reaction to balance; caused by movement aka form (life) being moved by flow (inception towards death)?
What if flow represents the fixed rules for all the form within? What if the laws of nature represents the rules that define how movement operates; a movement we represents the reaction to; to choice based adaptation for sustenance of form within flow?
If we are within constant movement (beginning towards end); then how can any rules be affixed within, and how can words define meaning within constant change? What if it's just our choice of ignorance (want over need); being exploited by the few through suggestions of wants (temptations)?
Helping towards what? Understanding what others suggest perceived reality means? What is it that your senses are perceiving? Movement aka moved inspiration to react to by choice; which then builds your comprehension (understanding). In other words...one adapts by choice to all perceived; to grow ones comprehension thereof.
The suggested information by other ones represents the temptation to ignore perceived inspiration. Allow yourself to question this. There's a parasite between what you perceive and the choice you make to comprehend it; and it uses suggested information to change your choice from need over want to want over need. Only you can change your choice.
Jeez, can't escape the crybabies anywhere. Words can't hurt you, remember? Oh, they didn't teach you that. Besides, everyone here has brain pan. Dont know the difference between a black person and a nigger? Did I hurt your feelings? Maybe racism is needed before the jews run us off a cliff?
I'm not hurt by your words or racism, I think it makes these communities and the information they provide look less valid. There isn't logic in racism, and your reply is a good example of that. It just makes you look stupid, but I'm sure you're quite used to that.
Dont cry, dumbass
