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
Here, at least, you could just block bots and parrots and have some decent people to talk with, with their own original theories and thougts who may not agree with you but have a decent and their own arguments and thoughts.
There always will be less people with original thoughts than those who just parrot some narrative. It is up to you to filter them, and that should not be hard if you account yourself as a person who able to generate original thoughts.
Speaking about all hardcore conspiracy things you talk about, as UFO/crytpozoology and so on, it is hard to somehow evolve when you have no any new information. It is senseless to discuss some old unverified crap again and again or just speculate for the sake of speculation. If you have some verifiable new information on the topics you want to see - then share with class, we will gladly discuss that and create some new theories.
Funny, but if you look close to the whole coronahoax thing, than you will see that it is exactly cryptozoology conspiracy in the nutshell. All that build around a creature (not really creature, since viruses are not alive), that possibly could exist and some tell they saw it, but can't present any proofs of their claim. You have a governments and corporations who build an extraodinary conspiracy around that cryptocreature. You have wistleblowers who shed some light on that conspiracy around cryptocreature. And so on. And it is much bigger than anything around another cryptocreatures like bigfoot or Nessie. If you are not able to recognize SARS-CoV-2 as obvious and may be greatest cryptocreature ever, then your claim looks very weak.
And you could find here completely original theories on that huge cryptozoology conspiracy you never heard about.
Information is hard to find today. So you need some efforts to get it. That should not be hard for the person who deem himself as critical thinker, and honestly, I think it is even a positive thing that works like a filter against those who want entertainment from such places instead of doing the job of connecting dots.
