I hang out in the "new" section all the time, mainly because it's more interesting to read. The lineup doesn't change often enough in the "hot" section.

I didn't know about the secrets of the new section when I first came here and I thought hot was reflective of reality, really fucked with my head.

new is good, /controversial is good now too.

A lot of stuff gets kept at around zero.

Proud to be among the Knights of New!

We need a Sigil.

Aye.

I want to know why the things on the front page of /conspiracy/ (ANY subreddit, rather) don’t actually show up in new, ever.

They don’t. There are things on the front page that are never in new. I use new because 1. fuck what “other people” have upvoted (because Reddit’s owners purposely game votes to push hegelian dialectic) and 2. I want to see EVERYTHING that is posted.

New isn’t everything. I could have sworn it was supposed to be and I’d love an explanation for why it isn’t.

You couldn't be more wrong. Choose a top thread from this sub right now, and look at when it was posted. Then go to new, and scroll until you find it near that time range. I just did it for the top two. You're making shit up. I understand this sub, but the tendency of some of the users here to find a conspiracy in EVERYTHING is astounding.

Sometimes they do, but yeah sometimes when I'm bored at home I'll basically sit in the new queue all day (among other subs) and then when I look back at the front page of r/conspiracy, there's links 4-6 hrs old that I never saw once in the new queue.

I've been here for ~8 years and have never seen this happen anywhere on the site. Everything that gets submitted shows up in the /new/ page (until it gets removed or 'spammed' by reddit itself). I suspect that you're mistaken.

edit: downvoters please explain why you thought this comment wasn't constructuve and relevant to the conversation.

Since you seem normal. Do any topics ever compel you to do research or do you have your own truth and maybe I could ask what it is?

Because it isn't true.

If a post gets enough upvotes in a short period of time it moves from /new to the subs front page. Also if a lot of posts are being made a post can quickly end up on the second or third page of /new.

I wish posts like this got stickied.

Censorship

Reddit, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Google are all actively rigging the access to "controversial" issues in relation to the 9-11 Attack, US Intelligence Community, Military Industrial Complex, US Warfare, Financial Sector, Mega Corporations, Key Figureheads and Politics.

• 1 Example: Some of the articles and research written and published just few years ago, after Mr. Snowden made his startling revelations about the US Intelligence Community blatantly illegally spying on all US citizens and the methods they use, has either gone completely missing or has been buried under mountains of government/corporate friendly data and lies. The search algorithms, offered to costumers by certain private companies, has been modified to "disappear" the "controversial" data.

• 2 Example: If you search the internet for 9-11 related material, you are much more likely to find scientifically inaccurate material, deliberate misleading material or material planted by the US Intelligence Community, than you are finding useful material for further study. This is especially true if you are unfamiliar with the subject at hand, you most likely end up with a "The Arabs did it in corporation with Evil Alien Reptilians" style material, which of cause will scare away any sane person. Sometimes you can observe how the Reddit moderator team blatantly censor new 9-11 articles by rigging the votes, only to allow a wave of misleading articles and posts to flood the r/conspiracy forum.

• 3 Example: If you post anything on r/news r/conspiracy r/worldnews r/economics about the crushing economic inequality, corporate crimes, financial crimes, financial rigging (LIBOR, FOREX, gold, silver, interest rates) your comments section will be crushed by waves of paid government Sh!lls & Pund!ts (or smart computer algorithms). If your post makes it to the front page, the moderators will immediately remove it. Most "controversial" posts will die a silent death due to rigging of the voting mechanics (their favorite method).

Reddit, owned by Advanced Publications, are serving their evil overlords well, this is just another brick in the great wall of lies and disinformation, created by the corporate owned mass media in tandem with the US intelligence community.

Just want to add this... do yourself a favor and go through whatever looks interesting. When you see something that looks good, upvote it.

By doing so, you will be helping to counteract the negativity and censorship that honest content often receives. You will also be helping to ensure that good content gets the visibility it deserves.
