It's official. I was right. Calling it now. I have for the past two or so years been discussing how there has been a shift in the community (this community + general conspiracy sites such as ATS, Reddit, LunaticOutpost, GLP, telegram, GA, 4fhan etc)

--

It's mostly native ads. It seems like we are helping prop up a new kind of influencer....tim Poole, Scott Adams, etc...

They are the 'conservative' voice boxes, we are the 'grassroots' and 'fringe' and 'alt/extreme' etc.

Conspiracies are 'right wing nut jobs' when the left discuss it, and the 'left wing fascists' are when the right discuss it in the mainstream.

We are essentially keeping the grift going, and providing the next talking points for the grifters.

Additionally, they then have their PR accounts used to link to one of their affiliates and this is the grift.

--

They then support one another by saying 'if you want to learn more you gotta really look at @$hit7∆|53®' for the real details (but they have the same details lol - not more - just more focused perhaps...)

--

Flat earth was a good example. It was immediately turned into a grift despite the argument so it may have some validity, but it doesn't matter because it follows the grift....so you cannot trust it.

--

Everything is following the grift....anytime real stuff comes up...the grift is just used to deflect. It's incredible. The posts on this website get voted up and there is a mm of controlling the 'hotness' of posts. They push their garbage mostly to the top, and real posters get sidelined. This place is a wasteland yet you have use three different browsers, and a shit ton of tricks to see them all.....
