I don't know why I bother, but I guess it's therapy in a way to at least attempt to make a point. This post is an attempt to explain once more but in different words what I see happening to this community.
When I say community, I refer to the loose collection of avatars and identities which congregate around a topic online. In this case it's anything to do with the greater 'conspiracy' space. This includes past, present, alternative, official, red/blue/black/white/grey pilled, and any stage of cryto/zoo/litho based stuff including but not limited UFO/UAPs, corruption, corporate whistleblowers, espionage, military or civilian, and otherwise.
There are many different places that you can go and some are more popular than others. Some are much more active, and some are more reactive to the news than others.
However, I feel like they are all quite hollowed out these days. It's like many of them died, retired, or have been controlled or sold out.
The number of unique threads these days is dwindling, and amongst the collection of different sites they are all beginning to show the same general content. Many of the times this is done through reposting the exact same articles or threads across all the sites at once. These are then flooded and promoted and take up the discussion and attention of the communities.
At other times, you will see the same kind of comments prolifically cast across the communities and all forming the general consensus. This is most noticeable if you visit a bunch of sites frequently enough (every other day at least) and you have been to many of these places (at least 5-6+ to compare) and you visit for a long enough time.
Most people will say it is because of MSM and it is, but it is also because these kinds of communities are the news....
This place....is a channel for 80% corporate/military/foreign/religious/etc control and less than 20% organic.
All the sites are. Every single website, forum, and mass social media group is.....
I don't know how to find anything original these days. It's like it's vanished. There is no single website that doesn't have these issues.
I have to on discords...same thing.
We like to talk about communism....but let's actually pause for a moment and consider that our minds are being made extremely communal.....
When was the last original post you saw on here that wasnt originally from another rehashed source??
I think almost everything is just a repost now.

This is dead internet theory but it's worse than that....it's dead culture
I will use an analog. Back when vinyl records were the thing, a new band would come on the scene with an awesome 1st album. My little brother thought that was weird. My explanation was simple, most bands had been around for 5 - 10 years before ever getting signed and recording a record. So in essence, you had a "best of" album from the 1st 5 years of the band. In a similar fashion, the conspiracy stories finally got feet via the internet and we had possibly over 200 years of stories to consolidate information and discuss. Currently, these possible conspiracies get discussed rapidly. I believe it is imperative that we watch for patterns to see how they connect if at all. A short attention span is the only thing that makes them boring
Huh, that’s an interesting thought...
So maybe instead of searching for a new high from some shiny new yet-to-be-discovered conspiracy, we should revisit the best-of collection and enjoy those timeless classics with fresh ears.
