The c/Conspiracies community seems to be in gradual decline over the years.

It's hard to believe that anyone could get involved in conspiracy theory to any extent and then give it up, but there you have it.
My only theory is that fear finally takes over: they get exposed to so much material that generates fear and which their subconscious judges to be potentially true that, in order to relieve that anxiety, they find a reason to quit.
We all battle against that same phenomenon. Pretty much nothing in the study of conspiracy reveals good news. It is only the love of truth in a higher consciousness that can overcome it.
If we try our best to stick to the Truth, we do not have to take the sides or the party line being pushed onto us.
That hits on something that has become so clear to me lately as a fundamental mechanism of control.
Almost all of us define ourselves as a collection of attributes: Democrat, firefighter, consumer, American, Red Sox fan, Person of Color, whatever. We wear these "identifications" like little merit badges on a sash that we use to signal others. And there's no doubt we think of these as "merit" badges, because no one "shamefully confesses" they're really a minarchist.
"They" know this and the mechanism of control is attaching tiny little strings to these badges to pull us around. That is, They simply declare that as a "good" fill-in-the-blank, you "should" do-thus-and-so. If you don't or you disagree, you're bad and should ashamed of yourself. They magically bridge the is-ought distinction and no one ever seems to see any of this happening.
Every once in a while we see someone removing one of these merit badges and freeing themselves. The one we see frequently now is when a black person declares they're a Trump supporter. They're accused of being a race traitor, of course, but without that merit badge and that tiny string, that person's attitude becomes, "I couldn't give a fuck what you think."
That and also once you know about it all you find it difficult to do something meaningful. Many regress into the pursuit of shekels for the lack of better alternative.
Maybe, but I know that for me it's become very much the opposite.
I mean, I recently stumbled onto this guy William H. Parker, who made the LAPD the military occupation force it is today. I just knew he had to be connected to the Parker family of generational Satanists scattered all throughout American history. I spent like an hour and a half finding that connection, and felt an acute compulsion the entire time not to stop until I did. I haven't got around to writing it up because I knew very well all along that only about six people will read it and care. I had to find out for myself.
OTOH, on the rare occasion I try to spend a little time researching an investment, after about 5 minutes I'll be like, "Good God, release me from this torture! How can this be worse than high school?"
yeah the things you do for love like investigating and finding out the amazing and corruption of the world....
... vs the things that we force ourselves to do for some sort of abstract idea of betterment. even the fact that it is " the right thing to do" makes it awful.
responsibility versus contumacity - I know which one I will choose.
I think it's like that for a lot of communities whose users were reddit refugees
If you look at c/NoNewNormal, threads used to get around 500-700 upvotes. Now? About 10-30 upvotes.

The lesson learned is, you can't build a community based off reddit users. They'll eventually cuck and go back to reddit. They're not about free speech, they just virtue signal like 90% of the population.
The reddit mod comes from a political ploy to take control of every discussion forum and stifle anything contradicting the narrative. If that doesn't work, say in the case of 4chan, they slide the board with flooding degeneracy and make it unusable to the average user.
Reddit is owned by jews, scored is owned by jews. c/CommunismIsJewish
I'm glad this place exists. Censorship on reddit is off the charts. Unless you support the government narrative you are in for a very bad time there.
Same here, I couldnt imagine going back to reddit wondering everytime I post is this gonna be the one that gets me perma banned.
10 years ago wasnt like that, you could still say what you thought without people jumping down your throat.
You are one of the top contributors in this community. Congrats!!

u/BuckeyePatr1ot has the jew star 😂🤣😆
It was only added to distinguish the plot lines. It would be hard to tell without customized styling when plotting the top 50 items.
I just found it hilarious after his spergout in c/Funny today. When I told him to cry about it in c/Meta he blocked me with utmost moral superiority lol
Oh, I have not caught up with your comments in that thread yet.
¦¬) thanks gay system
NNN was an interesting case. The win/scored admins were monitoring the subreddit for months and preparing for the migration to c/NoNewNormal community. That did not happen the way the admins wanted it. There was a significant increase of the active users. But that number dropped off in a month and continued to decline in the next 5 months or so. Over 31.5% of the posts made during that period were deleted, which contributed to 72.5% of all deleted posts to this date.
If that community had public logs, we would be able to look at the specifics, such as why the mod removed tallest_skil's posts there.
That peak was around the peak of COVID. Of course it would taper off after that until the next major conspiracy
Can’t possibly imagine why. Wouldn’t have anything to do with paid shills spamming identical hoaxes every day for months…
It doesnt help the site is not indexed by google, perhaps the owner has set no robots or something.
The only way to really spread this site is through word of mouth. How many of you guys have any social media left, especially after covid.
Covid is when I had to delete my account, people on reddit had lost their mind. I cant imagine facebook or any major mainstream platform was any different.
Believe it or not tik tok has tons of conspiracy content which is why they want to ban it.
They just purged several truther accounts to try to censor it.
Covid was the most crazy time to be alive
Aren't these patterns consistent among other forums since the scamdemic?
Internet activity was up during scamdemic.
We are being deliberately marginalized by the incessant hate speech from accounts like u/SystemGay
Hate speech doesn’t exist.
:) Are you jewish?
