I love researching conspiracies, but this website is obviously a front....
It's so clear it's kind of sad....like....50 cent army sad.....(hey....agents, you fucking suck at your jobs....you fucking are juniors....fucking intern level)
You must realize there are three purposes for this website.....only one of them is legitimate (ie...a forum for legitimate discussion) - the other two reasons are pretty clear this point.
Commercialization of 'alternative' controlled opposition and grifters for hire. This is a mix of the big names (Malone, ye, Owens, McCullough, Kory) etc...and a bunch of small timers. (Cliff high, flat earth ers, etc)
And Politicization of the news designed to foment anger, doubt, and spread discontent. None of these prolific posters are anything but dishonest and obvious bad faith actor.
Shitty and incompetent ones at that.....I guess they only expect this site to gather even dumber people than they are.....and frankly....let's be real.....the mods.....lmao...
They are either complicit (I think axo is a taking bribes and payments or just steals posts from people to repost the approved message....but it's not some good faith guy.....that's clear.)
And the others are clearly motivated around specific topics. Clemaneveurs is perhaps the most active cleanup crew mod and he does handle the spam, but the rest are useless, and only push agendas....
Not saying that there is not some truth to be found here, but it almost all misdirected to avoid being useful.....
Beware....and find somewhere new imo.
Real thought don't live here.
This was the kinda post's I would see in r/conspiracy before shit went sideways. It was always fucked 2009 onwards, but 2016 is when someone seemed to start taking over the sub. Nowadays its mostly top comments saying "No conspiracy here guys" "Oh fucking idiots believe anything". Its rather quite entertaining.
Some of its bots, some of its shills. Alot of it, is people leaving the comfy confines of their echo chambers to defend their view of reality because its the only place on reddit where free speech is still, somewhat allowed.
But I cant help but feel that some of us must be doing something here right when we see post's telling us this place is dead and to go somewhere else. Sure its not no million+ board like r/con, but at least were allowed to say what we think here. Although, I wish we could get back to where r/con was years ago, with aliens, occult magic, alternative historys and religions and more. But sadly we have become so polarized politically its all any of us can focus on. And I wonder why, one side telling us we should be quarantined for not taking a vaccine that doesnt stop us from getting sick, and the other who isnt any better.
As for axo, thats why I come here, shortly before deleting my reddit account actually, I was banned from half the reddits because I commented in nonewnormal anyway ^^. Someone was mentioning it in the old con forums and since then it seems the mods have a hard on for preventing people from sharing the site. I wonder why.
And I think its hilarious, that you think Axo is a shill. If he is, hes completely fooled me. They screwed him pretty good, and tbh if I still cared about clans and moderating I would be salty too for losing a position where I had the opportunity to reach hundreds of thousands of people. Ive never seen him advocate for death or violence, most of what he deleted was vitriol, anger, and hate. But what can I say, I know my thoughts dont matter. I will add though, Axo is similar to me. Hes hung up on what some fancy asshats in fancy dress did to him by falsly accusing him of things he did not do which cost him a mod position that hes had for freaking what, 10 years? It's much like how I cant get over being poisoned with freon and denied help or benefits. Society is fucking broken.
And, every site is being watched, being tracked, it doesnt really matter where you go. You might be ok in the middle of the woods, face to face if privacy is really what you want, but that may not even be enough.
I'm not a criminal and I have nothing to hide. I do not advocate for death, destruction, or any kind of violence. I believe that the justice system used to work but that it only seems to work for the rich now. That is not why it was created.
I hold myself to a higher power than the corrupt man made courts.
I agree you can say a lot of stuff here you would otherwise be banned for in places, and that is not really my concern. It's more to do with the consistency of the posts here and their apparent ulterior motives.
Axo has a lot of respect in the industry, but like most mods who have garnered individual recognition, there comes the ability to sell and offer those services in a market. (no there is likely not an ad anywhere posted,, but I would suspect he runs a consulting service of sorts.)
I am not suggesting he is wholly without merit in all posts and in fact it would be in his benefit to continue some reposting etc, moreso that I feel based on his posts that I can see a possible bias that suggests either it's his own, or that it would align with my supposition of possibly selling such influence.
As for how this place could be improved. It needs to not have 80% of the posts be clearly in support the latest anti-thing that seems to generate a lot of money for the same people over and over and over again.....imo.
lol at the phrase “the industry.” Not totally discounting your claims but I have a different view of our hole in the wall than you do.
